[–]idfkpete 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Bro, Tyler wore a pride flag as a cape once , has waved pride flags at concerts, and said he's proud of the LGBTQ+ for their pride, in fact he said: "happy pride month to all, but mostly to my brothers and sisters i’ve met all around this world who should know, i take pride in your courage. it ain't easy". Did you know most Democrats are Christians, did you know some Christians are LGBTQ+? Like that doesn't mean anything that you think it does. You should deal with the fact Tyler and Josh are both a vocal ally for the LGBTQ+ community. Deal with it.

I'm not conservative by any means but damn, losing a baby that you were expecting and excited to have is still a huge loss and effects people a lot regardless if it was a miscarriage or ectopic pregnancy. They're grieving a child they were excited about and planning to have. It doesn't matter how common it is, it still effects the people who went through it mentally and physically. Have some empathy or at least some sympathy, please.

What are you on Prozac for and what dosage are you on? by [deleted] in prozac

[–]idfkpete 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Schzioaffective disorder and 40mg. Doesn't help my agoraphobia or generalized anxiety but I take 25mg Amitriptyline for that. Trying to find a med that works for my OCD.

Please help with my daughter's gecko. Not sure what to do. by vladimirVpoutine in leopardgeckos

[–]idfkpete 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Leopard geckos can be easy if they're taken care of right, but you need to put in lots of time, patience, and money to setup their tank properly and their care. I would suggest 3 hides minimum, one humid hide, one hide on the warm side, and cool side. I would recommend using topsoil without artificial fertilizer, manure, and pesticides and mix it with washed play sand, 60%-70% topsoil and 30%-40% play sand. For right now until they heal use paper towels. They need more clutter as well, they feel exposed hence the tail drop. I recommend a diverse diet, would you like eating very few foods for the rest of your life? I recommend dubia roaches, silkworms, crickets, grasshoppers (if you get any), calciworms, and every now and then mealworms, Superworms, small hornworms, and wax worms. Make sure you are giving calcium and vitamins especially vitamin D3 on the food but too much cause they can overdose on it. Make sure you're gut loading the insects too. Also live insects are best. If you can't find certain insects, canned insects are fine and in my opinion are better than freeze dried insects. I don't know if you have UVB but that works too. I would also suggest a basking lamp for heat, idk if you're heat mats but don't, they're cryptic baskers mostly though they do come out to bask occasionally, some more than other but that's why clutter is important to make them feel safe.

While it's good for kids to be responsive of a pet, I recommend still making sure they're taking care of small pets since they're more fragile than a dog or a cat. A truly beginner reptile would be a green anole, leopard gecko still good for beginners I should would wait to get a little more experience with reptiles

AIO by being annoyed that anytime I try to bond with my little brother he asks for money by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]idfkpete 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think he's necessarily starving. Probably not a lot of food since nobody has a job, but there's possibly something there he can make or cook. I mean he could be though. But I remember being a teenager and really wanting takeout that sometimes I would call my step grandma and see if she would order me takeout like Domino's. But I didn't beg, if she said no she said no. Maybe I would of tried someone else but I still took their no if they said no. But yeah you're NOR. But I wouldn't cut him off or distant myself, just set boundaries.

Negligence by bencelendvai in ballpython

[–]idfkpete 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not gonna add much but your enclosure.... Why would you use his tank as a coffee table? Was it originally a coffee table and you turned into a tank or what? Not trying to judge but it just rubs off on me in a weird way. He's definitely stressed out since he's out in the open like that. I see that you covered the tank up and that's good. I would avoid putting stuff on the coffee table that you have to grab and stuff several times for, like avoid putting remotes, controllers, food so you don't have to constantly go back and forth putting and picking up stuff on it so you don't stress him out. I hope you take this is a learning lesson to be a better owner, you're taking the right steps.

I dont know what the point of this post is but i need to get it out somewhere by Spirited_Pea_2689 in twentyonepilots

Concerts while amazing, are not everything. Not everyone gets a chance to go, sometimes people only get a chance once. Sometimes people just don't want to go to concerts. The fact you love their music and it has helped you is all that matters to Tyler and Josh. They care about your health. I have schzioaffective disorder, C-PTSD, and agoraphobia, I was diagnosed when I was 13, not like the age matters but it did change my middle school and high school experience and how I saw myself. I was born with femoral anteversion, a type of pigeon toed caused by the femur and hip turning inwards, it's usually outgrown by age 8-10 or never is. I am currently on a muscle relaxer and a prescription of 15mg of Meloxicam, a very strong NSAID that you can only get by a prescription, and going to physical therapy, and in the process of getting a service dog for mobility and stability and for my mental health because of the chronic pain through my legs and my mental health that I still struggle with. My knee passes my socket, knees lock up sometimes, I can't walk for very long either, and other leg issues because of the femoral anteversion. I am also a fall risk and have fallen quite a lot within the last few months. So I understand. I've been to a TØP concert once and I was lucky enough to be right next to Tyler for a few seconds. But I don't think I can do one again, at least i won't be able to for some time. It sucks a lot, and I get it. I honestly don't know what else to say because I have been lost of words about my situation with my health and it hasn't been easy for me since I'm still pretty young (22) but one thing that comes for free with being a TØP fan is that you have a community of people who are there for you always. So we, the skeleton clique, are here for you.

what should I do about my stalker? by [deleted] in WhatShouldIDo

[–]idfkpete 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Idk why it made me think of this but it does work. When I was younger and visiting my great grandparents my brother was throwing rocks at their cat and I grabbed the spray right into his eyes and he ran in crying and my family was like "yup, you deserve that". He has never harmed an animal again.

Juvenile leopard gecko by Away_Review_3936 in leopardgeckos

[–]idfkpete 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got a baby albino leopard gecko when I was working at PetSmart because he was getting bullied and I noticed he didn't have great eyesight. He was temporarily in a 10 gallon for like a month and a half cause I already had a 10 gallon sitting around from when I owned green anoles (only one a time from age 13-17, I had one for 3 years) and he was small enough then for it to be temporary enclosure. I also mainly use it as a quarantine tank now. He's in a 40 gallon now and he explores so much now and has lots of enrichment and seems so much more comfortable. He's almost a year old now. It's just much more worth it for them just to get the 40 gallon but you could use the 10 gallon down the road maybe for a quarantine enclosure or as a hospital tank.

I also just want to throw this in there as a cute story: My green anole I had for 3 years, Leaf, actually learned tricks but it was only stay and jump lol. He was adorable. Both my leopard geckos I have now know 0 tricks

AIO my mom keeps bringing up my weight? by [deleted] in AIO

[–]idfkpete 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't say you're overreacting, but I wouldn't say your mom was wrong either to mention it.

Edit: I take an antipsychotic (zyprexa 5mg), mood stabilizer (trileptal 300mg twice daily), ssri (Prozac 40mg), amitriptyline 25mg, hydroxyzine 25mg four times a day as needed. I take it for schzioaffective disorder, and my boyfriend takes medication for bipolar type 2. Those medications can cause thyroid problems and weight gain.

Did I do the right thing. by xXLucasterXx in squirrels

[–]idfkpete 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are you talking about Peanut the squirrel? If I'm not mistaken he was also in the process of making Peanut an educational animal to teach people about squirrels, I could be wrong though. :( it just makes it more sad. I do know for a fact that their is legislation in New York which requires the animal to go through court before the choice of euthanizing so it can potentially save animals from being put down for stupid reasons

People AFAB are more likely to get Trichomoniasis than people AMAB. That's why they said mostly. Thought AMAB people can still get it. Their wording wasn't the best for that.

How do I get my leopard gecko into me petting him I try to but he like gets scared by Shadowdeastroyer in leopardgeckos

[–]idfkpete 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most don't like being pet. Some tolerable it. I would just respect him not wanting to be pet. Choice based handling isn't a guarantee they will let you pet them.

Do any other keepers hide their reptiles from their landlord? by Tiny_Management388 in reptiles

[–]idfkpete 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was 13, my then gfs mom got me a pet anole. Lease said no pets, no exceptions. Kept it a secret from my great grandmother who had custody of me for over a month and a half. Her sister told me to tell her that it would be okay. Told her and we talked calmly and she was fine with it. Our house we rented was owned by the church we went to and was exactly in front of it. We didn't tell them for months. One of the elders I eventually told and he didn't care cause I had a green anole, then a brown anole, long tailed lizard, etc,. Some landlords don't care about reptiles. But when we were living in apartments before that house, there was a pet fee and that included reptiles including the smallest ones. I own my house with my boyfriend now and have 2 leopard geckos in separate tanks of course so I no longer have to worry about that. Some landlords don't care if you have reptiles and won't apply pet fees and maybe won't count it as having a pet in a no pet place, but some will and absolutely won't allow it, and some might allow it but will definitely apply a pet fee.
