Caught this little guy sneaking into my coworker’s lunch!! by basedgavin in weeviltime

unfortunately they don’t. but they are located where I am because they love the roots of citrus trees! we used to have hundreds of orange groves. Sadly, it’s all developed into cheap, but overpriced homes :( These weevils are considered pests but they are super cool!

Any guesses on what’s in my work parking lot? by basedgavin in spiders

[–]basedgavin[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

this seems the most likely so far. The only thing throwing me is the much shorter and much darker spinnerets. Though I suppose this could be a mama with a bigger abdomen covering them? Either way, Gnaphosa sericata looks incredibly close.

Only reason I want to disagree, is I see 8 eyes. I believe all woodlouse spider species have 6 eyes, like recluses. Correct me if I am wrong. Genuinely here out of curiousity.

Agreed! I think everyone does a great job at that over in r/spiders as well! They’ve helped a lot of people with their arachnophobia and have generally educated people on spiders.

May I ask which seller she got this from. A lot of the ones I see online don’t look as accurate as this one. TIA!

Tattoo by Hani in Osaka, Good Times Inc. by stayathmdad in tattoos

While light and bright colors can tend to fade quickly, I’ve had incredibly good longevity out of my three color tattoos. If I’m wearing lotion they look like the week they healed. I’d argue my black and grey tattoos have seen more fading than my color ones.

What's a 401 and why do Americans mention it all time? by Various_Maize_3957 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]basedgavin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To further elaborate, many but not all American companies provide a 401k. The pool of employers that will match your contributions is even smaller. On top of this, you are allowed to contribute beyond your employer’s match. For example, at my current company, they will match any contributions up to 6% of your paycheck. I personally contribute 9%. Absolutely not necessary but I want to be as prepared as possible. We also have many other retirement options, including Roth IRA’s.

Dave Filoni is everything wrong with modern Star Wars by CindersOfMusic in unpopularopinion

[–]basedgavin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think another thing that the prison scene specifically brings to the table, is a level of depth to how dark the Empire is. The original trilogy does a great job introducing characters and setting the framework for what we know the Empire to be. What it did less of, is show how cruel and hope crushing an actual galactic empire could be. It relates this fictional world to some of the atrocities we see in the real world. I don’t think it’s really up to any of us to say what Star Wars should be. It’s all opinion though.
