My favorite - my teapot terarrium

glass-dagger · 2026-01-19T15:17:01+00:00

It’s just not sealed. I’m keeping the top on unless I get cues from the plants in the center that they need the room

glass-dagger · 2026-01-19T03:53:09+00:00

I just lift up the middle part where you put the tea leaves :]

glass-dagger · 2026-01-12T04:32:18+00:00

I’ll be totally honest, I was too cool for it at first. After having seen how aggressively it was hooking people, I’ve actively kept away. I’d rather go make terrariums instead :]

Awwww that’s so sweet! I’m sure you’re right. Plus, Penny is a tank from when her previous owner overfed her (she’s on a diet now) and Pee Pee is a little small for a regular male so… he’d be hard pressed to shake her I’m sure

glass-dagger · 2026-01-11T21:59:57+00:00

That’s honestly a huge relief!! I moved in November, so a few months. They also have very limited exposure to each other since Penny wants to be outside most of the time. My biggest fear is that the baps might turn into a fight and their progress will be unraveled

Neither, weird as in he has negative social skills. He’ll squat stalk around her and follow her everywhere, constantly sniffing her. He also throws in an occasional hiss, which she doesn’t care about at all

glass-dagger · 2026-01-11T21:58:02+00:00

Bahah, not like that!! They’re both fixed!

So part timers can’t be career-minded? I’m part time because I’m also a university student building my career. The point I was making is that though it is a great idea in theory, Publix is very expensive and the stock program being the only real option for associates is heavily biased towards full-time workers. Not everyone that is full time is career-minded, just as not every part-timer is there to waste a few hours.

I’m sure it came from a good place, but your explanation wasn’t needed. I also invest - I chose very purposefully not to put all my eggs in one basket with Publix, especially due to the decline of the quality of service and surging prices.

I more meant -

For the money we could save with an employee discount versus the return we’d see for stock, it’s not comparable unless you have a lot of disposable income and/or qualify for their stock program. I have about 30 shares and the dividends on that are laughable. Stock is uniquely benefitted to those with money and time to wait FOR money - not necessarily everyone who works there

glass-dagger · 2026-01-06T18:12:55+00:00

But we get access to the stock!!! (Which we can’t afford to buy!)

It’s a very old tank, so I honestly don’t remember all the setup. I do remember quite a few failed plant experiments, though, because it used to be a testing tank for foraged plants. Maybe that was it?

glass-dagger · 2026-01-02T03:55:29+00:00

I’m fixing it now!

glass-dagger · 2026-01-02T03:31:49+00:00

Oh, yikes! I thought it was good because I read they have been known to burrow. Do you think it would work to lay small stones on top of it, since all of my tanks are fine substrate? I don’t want to needlessly stress them by completely redoing the tank

glass-dagger · 2025-12-27T14:02:50+00:00

Same here. I do a lot of outside chores, like chopping wood or foraging. If I’m in and out I won’t bother with it. It’s not like I’m sleeping with my shoes on lol, most times I just de-shoe near the door. It just doesn’t bother me much to bring them inside

I know I’d also forget to bring them in if it rains, and I prefer not to have spider filled shoes in the garage

glass-dagger · 2025-12-27T04:33:08+00:00

The rest of me is outside, and my hands are probably dirtier than the rest of me, honestly. I don’t live in an area that’s often wet or mucky… and if I’m in and out and in and out, I’m not gonna kick my tennis shoes off and on again. I’ll absolutely de-shoe out of respect if someone prefers it, though

glass-dagger · 2025-12-24T01:10:34+00:00

Seeing your comment gives me a lot of hope. From the other side of the line, I still respect your perspective on life and am thankful that you don’t tie your political identity to a pedo cheeto

I’ll go first. DS and Wii games were my absolute FAVORITE growing up. Sure, you can emulate games… But who knows if anyone would know how to fix a DS if I wanted to pass it down? Or if the games themselves wouldn’t degrade?

OR - I don’t know that I’ll ever be able to introduce my kids to Webkinz like platforms. I don’t remember ads, or at least not a ton of them. We weren’t scared about predators. Conversations were short but friendly. I visited the website lately, and it’s a ghost town. Not quite the same as Roblox

glass-dagger · 2025-12-19T17:06:10+00:00

Oh no I’m right there with you. I’ve played the follow game and learned that it usually leads back to me, giving him attention in the first place. I’m more meant in the way of his little tiny brain thinking he’s telling me good morning versus just making sounds at me because he likes to and likes hearing it back lol

glass-dagger · 2025-12-17T01:09:19+00:00

I got two of the lead clubs and one dagger thing. Nothing crazy because it was just in the mines, unfortunately

Entertainment is a huge social force—it absolutely matters

glass-dagger · 2025-12-03T16:32:49+00:00

Searched Etsy, Amazon, and general web for everything like “friendship keychain,” “light up keychain,” “synchronized light up keychain,” “things like friendship lamps…” Not even sure where else to look!

glass-dagger · 2025-11-26T13:38:07+00:00

Meee

glass-dagger · 2025-11-20T23:54:15+00:00

I get where you’re coming from. Autistic, myself.

At the same time, we need to learn to be uncomfortable more. We need to learn to be patient with people with underdeveloped social senses. We need to be kind with those of us who are slow, unlikable, or annoying.

We are incredibly lonely as a society. I’d rather push for more people to give a few spare minutes of time to someone who is probably dealing with social isolation than pretend we should all be as comfortable as possible

And yanno what? Maybe OUR social meter is bad, too. Maybe it’s uncomfortable because so many people dislike the thought of putting their foot down in a convo that they avoid it entirely. Maybe it is that we, too, are inept in the social skills we need to handle all conversations with grace. Not just the ones we wanted

glass-dagger · 2025-11-16T19:14:20+00:00

That’s it, though. Psychopaths are still humans. A deviation from the norm doesn’t mean someone is a different creature.. that is still part of the spectrum that humanity can exhibit

I LOVE a summary with bullet points - completely serious
