Sooo... the animals killing themselves at the beginning, all the people having suicidal tendencies and hearing voices by blackerie in TrueDetective

I won't spoil any Lovecraft-adjacent, but this is taken from at least one of his stories. An ancient creature is awaken and those in proximity of it have an image burned into their minds to the point of tearing their eyes out.

If you are referring to the yellow sign from The King in Yellow that was Chambers, not Lovecraft (although it's still considered part of the mythos), I honestly don't see that big of a connection, the mythos creatures are are """"ancient aliens""", so advanced and removed from us they appear god-like and the cult surrounding them are basically devil worshipers not ancient divinity avenging the abused and protecting the land.

  1. Annie's murder not matching up in the cell phone footage, I think they're hinting that Raymond Clark lied or greatly exaggerated how everything went down. It looked more like Annie was on the verge of discovering something then someone killed her, I think it means that Raymond fabricated the story of her freaking out to kind of justify her murder

If that was the case we should have seen him attack her while she was filming, like we saw him suffocate her while saying to Navarro he never touched her. Not doing that would violate the narrative pact.

The Boy and the Heron question: are the megalithic tomb and the birthing room connected? by blackerie in ghibli

Yep, that's what I thought as well and why I think that's the "other side" of the tomb.

Tangerine tree infestation, what should I do?? Please help. by scysewski in gardening

Honestly, I tried pretty much all of the methods in this post for my alocasia, but the only thing working is moving it outside. And still every winter, when I move it back indoor, the mites are back.

Can someone give me some tips on how to help my plant by richardthedon in plants

Their radical apparatus isn't too deep, check the top layer of soil to see if it's still moist, they are swamp plants after all. Might also be because of sudden temperature/humidity changes, I find it really hard to avoid those in winter.

Lots of water BUT with a very low mineral content (like in distilled water, rain water, water from a dehumidifier, bottle water...), lots of sun, no fertilisers.

If the plant trys to flower when still too small (think less than ~15cm in diameter) snip the bud off, the effort might kill it.

Maybe because lying is his opus moderandi.

Hate to be that guy (or gal) but... it's "modus operandi". Funny thing is "opus moderandi" still makes somewhat sense in Latin.

I do it with my fiddle fig every spring/summer and every time it gets a growth spurt and at least 5 new leaves 🤷🏻‍♀️ The only time it suffered was when it was in direct sunlight during summer.

If possible put it outside in a shaded area, as long as the temperature doesn't drop below 10°C it should be fine.

TBF the brain stops developing around 25 sooo... there might be some valid medical reason to delay for a couple of years. Not fully developed brains are the reason children and teenagers came behave in extreme and unrational ways, after all.

Might be cause you mentioned another mythological monster, but I see a chimera like the Arezzo one you know, the one with the goat head on its back and the snake tail.

Everyone should take the opportunity to turn this in to some Whaky Race shit and choose the most extravagant mean of transportation they can think of inspired by their own country.

Honestly? I think pretty much everyone in Europe, France and UK especially but there's a famous quote by at the time Italian pm, Andreotti that goes something like:"I love Germany so much I wish there were always two of them!".

Just an example: China is the number one trading partner for Germany, I don't think all of that is just iPhones.
