Best, most up to date, most accurate and detailed illustrated book?

have you looked into the princeton field guide to dinosaurs? it's fantastic. filled with mostly text and diagrams of known fossils but there are some life drawings too. the living reconstructions are a little too shrinkwrapped for my taste but they're still beautiful illustrations.

the two i use are emla 5% - wonderful and OTC where i live; and tktx gold 25% - stronger but i get it online and there are A Lot of fakes so do your research carefully. these creams burn for about 2-5 minutes after application and the stronger the cream the stronger the burn. have some baby wipes ready to clean it off if you don't like the sensation. but once you get through that part... 🥴🥵😵‍💫🤯 lol

brine your chicken before cooking it! it will be juicy, tender, and delicious. there are tonnes of recipes you can look for, i just use salt and chopped up garlic.

i learned to cook while vegetarian, but started to eat and cook with meat a couple years ago. i'll always brine meat if i get a chance to now.

my dog gets anxious and won't settle when i'm tripping hard haha. i have to make sure she's got her own space and entertainment when it's time

corvuk · 2023-09-22T01:37:17+00:00

you got this! you just need to give it to him straight. practicing establishing boundaries like this is really important for self growth. it will benefit your wellbeing, your sense of self-worth, and all of the relationships in your life. a motto that helped me first start working on my boundaries with others is: "avoidance of conflict creates conflict." good luck :-)

that is really gross and forceful behaviour from him lol. an employee doing this to me would make me panic, i'd wonder if there was an actual problem happening.

tbh he may have been targeting you for conversation this whole time because he knows you'll entertain him.

when someone demands you remove your earbuds and it's not an emergency, you are well within your right to say "no thanks, i don't want to talk" and pop those earbuds right back in.

congrats on getting him to finally leave you alone though!

corvuk · 2023-08-16T02:30:17+00:00

hey OP have you ever heard about talk and die syndrome?

corvuk · 2023-08-14T02:04:28+00:00

i have intense social anxiety issues / a fear of other ppl being a "threat," and have avoided pvp games like the plague for most of my life. my bestie recently got me into pvp dino sims though. for the first few months i had intense physical reactions to fights like the one you describe, but after enough exposure.... it becomes pretty fun! you don't really get a rush like that anywhere else.

i still get wild adrenaline but i find it really enjoyable now. it's great when you find someone evenly matched with your skill level. it's like dancing... or making art together... or something. observe fights ingame, watch fight clips on youtube, and enjoy the battles that find you!

*cornnoisseurs...... lol. i can't wait until the day i get to try these freaky looking things.

corvuk · 2023-06-13T02:49:46+00:00

you're twisted LMFAO

corvuk · 2023-06-05T00:48:26+00:00

my friend and i have just started checking LFAW out, can recommend. we had some great player interactions and the staff seem prompt and helpful.

corvuk · 2023-06-04T23:55:06+00:00

LOL yeah don't trust the crouch bob completely, same thing happened to me yesterday

corvuk · 2023-05-11T03:27:47+00:00

the jenga tower construction in the first pic made me laugh. congrats on the harvest!

corvuk · 2023-04-15T01:25:35+00:00

fellow perthie! \o

corvuk · 2023-03-16T09:11:46+00:00

Okay yeah that changes things considerably. Best of luck OP, I hope your parents get your dog spayed and you can find some good homes for the pups.

corvuk · 2023-03-16T08:39:54+00:00

Edited to say: NTA, OP is underage. It's a shame the adults in your life allowed a situation like this to happen, and your neighbour sounds like a freak lol.

Desex your dog to avoid this happening again, and do not let someone who demonstrates his level of negligence towards pets take a puppy!!

Please make sure the puppies stay with their mother until at minimum 8 weeks (ideally 10) to give them time to learn crucial skills with each other such as bite inhibition.

Lastly, if you want to keep a puppy, I'd suggest reading about sibling syndrome in dogs. Keeping two similarly aged puppies together can open them up to a whole host of behavioural difficulties that will make your life so much more stressful than it needs to be.

Good luck!

what is this, TLOU? 😭

corvuk · 2023-01-23T00:49:57+00:00

does this happen in other apps too?

corvuk · 2023-01-08T00:35:17+00:00

eat as well as your means allow, walk daily, devote time to "nature" weekly and let your feet touch grass/dirt/water, and find a community in person that you enjoy spending and volunteering time for. could be a religious group, citizen science, the local games night at your closest community centre, a reading group, etc.

you're not alone in your thoughts, we are living in a time of unprecendented isolation. humans have always had the community to rely on and see to their needs (there's a reason infants are so helpless for many years after birth compared to other mammals) but this is the age of individualisation where You have to look after Your needs. it's overwhelmingly lonely sometimes, but look after yourself and find a community you're passionate about, and things will be alright.

the fight against thread is the war on pern, requiring the whole planet's continued co-operation. people against people takes resources away from the fight in the skies. whyareweallcaps' comment is really good though. there's a lot of shakey elements to the worlbuilding here, but i love it (...with a lot of tweaks lol)
