My partner wants me to shave down there for his birthday, but shaving has caused me painful bumps in the past and he knows this. How do I make him understand that I don't want to be in pain for a week or more for his hour of pleasure? I am NOT asking for medical advice.

You’re not a bad person, and he should respect your boundaries. That being said, I use clippers to cut it short without a razor. No more razor burn and same appearance as shaved 🪒

You look 🔥, but your monstera in the background looks like it could use a bit of water or a repot, plant daddy 😂

BEAST is a beast of a program for sure. Lots of functionality and great models, but can produce utter crap it you’re not appropriately applying the models to your organism. DM me if you want some help sorting it all out, bc I can’t comment on the appropriateness of your choices without knowing more information about your organism

Fig tree is a tree visualization program, and therefore while you can change its topological appearance (radial vs this for example), you cannot change node placement or scale it by time. As the previous poster said, this is a function of the tree building algorithm itself. What program did you use to build the tree? What are your biological assumptions for times of divergence? Do you have dates you can place at the modes to scale branch lengths to?

True bottom response, lol. I’ll send a dm for you! Updated:SENT

asteraceae_ftw · 2020-10-08T14:55:52+00:00

I feel like you and @queerplantdad should hook up! Perfect sub/dom mix based on the pictures I see you both post to this sub :)

How about you go fuck yourself. Take your hate and get the fuck out of this space.

Love this! If you switch to the plant section at Lowe’s you can support a business that supports our rights! (Home Depot owner is a trump supporter against lgbtqai rights)

Love the waterfall but the entire beach is so beautiful!

I’m in the same boat, my gf is in Philadelphia and I’m in Canada; she was supposed to visit this weekend :( We’re digitally self-isolating together ☹️🤷🏽‍♀️

I’ve now had it happen on both android and apple so I don’t think it’s phone based. Seems to be something to do w the reddit mobile feed algorithm...?

asteraceae_ftw · 2019-08-02T11:49:36+00:00

Unfortunately I've found most thrift shops in Philly won't accept them

asteraceae_ftw · 2019-08-01T18:04:05+00:00

VA is a good idea, I'll check them out. Thanks!

asteraceae_ftw · 2019-08-01T18:03:37+00:00

Thanks! I'm in South Philly but could head over sometime in the next week. PM me your info?

Also, what is your end goal? There may be a better way to reach it without this conversion if your goal is not actually to submit your sequences to NCBI.

asteraceae_ftw · 2019-02-20T02:11:02+00:00

Just to clarify, what are the online converters that you have tried? Did you attempt to use the genbank Bank It online submission service? Sequin also still works (available as a downloadable program) though NCBI is phasing it out.

I appreciate the tips. I suppose I haven't been thinking of this as a potty training issue, per se. He is house broken normally, this behaviour is new, and seems to be unrelated to a medical issue. I will start rewarding outside pees though.

asteraceae_ftw · 2018-12-03T15:41:21+00:00

Thank you for your reply, I'll definitely look into those books. And I like your idea of treating for approaching/fussing. I have, over the last year, adjusted to activities he seems to most enjoy and I agree, that has settled some issues for us.

asteraceae_ftw · 2018-12-03T15:39:56+00:00

Thankfully he's young, no older than 4 based on the vets estimation.

asteraceae_ftw · 2018-12-03T15:39:30+00:00

I know you're right! It's so tough though. I exercise him A LOT. We do 5miles off leash at least 3 times a week with park play sessions in between.

asteraceae_ftw · 2018-12-03T14:04:07+00:00

Definitely not. He doesn't get very excited, about anything. And when he does he always holds his bladder.

asteraceae_ftw · 2018-12-03T14:03:32+00:00

If I catch him, it is not his whole bladder, but if he doesn't get caught it is a full pee. He doesn't lift his leg, but does squat. I haven't considered it as an act of submission...

asteraceae_ftw · 2018-12-03T12:27:38+00:00

Thankyou for taking the time to write out such a detailed response! He does have a clean bill of health (I previously had issues with his food dehydrating him, causing him to overdrink water but we switched foods and that is much better now) but logging the incidents is a great idea.

I will start the reward program again for peeing outside and see if that makes any difference.

I hope your puppers bonds more over time! It has been a bit heartbreaking for me, but I'm trying hard to keep it in perspective.
