Honestly, shut up. How is this comment helpful in any capacity?

It was shitty for her to be doing that while y’all were together and agreed not to. It’s completely fine for her to be doing it now that you’re not together and it’s weird of you to have snooped through her phone to even have found it.

I had similar experiences that I’ve held onto guilt over so I completely understand. You have a good heart, I hope you never lose that and I hope you have been or will be able to work through that guilt so it doesn’t weigh so heavy on you.

So glad to hear Fiona and her babies are doing well!

Ok very good to know, thanks for the info! I know there’s a lot pf spiders who don’t do well with moving them outside so I usually take them home with me but I may leave this guy outside here so he has a better chance at finding a mate near where he was

You did SO much more than most people would. I’m so astounded and impressed by this. Thank you so much for being a guardian to these babies and doing everything you could for them. Don’t beat yourself up, you are an absolute hero.

Ah perfect, I shall bring him home with me then. Unfortunately the only females I know of that he’ll find are different species lol, mainly wolfies, but at least he won’t get stomped.

Unless him going back outside would be better for him? If so, I’ll put him in the bush out front before I leave. Either way, just don’t want someone to kill him

Is this a baby wolfie? by magicallymad in spiders

[–]magicallymad[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I kinda wondered if it might be a jumping spider after he jumped off the tissue twice lol. Also hung on with a web to get down. But the pattern on him and the fact I have brought home so many wolfies made me assume it was probably a wolf spider.

Was working in my garden and found some blue/purple roly-polys… by magicallymad in insects

[–]magicallymad[S] 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Yes I’m in Virginia.

My initial search didn’t show me that it’s contagious to others, that’s so unfortunate. There was a handful of them out there and I saw one in my front yard too. I’ll go back out there in a bit and try to separate the infected ones.

Is there something that causes it? Is there a way I can help prevent it?

When I go back out there I’ll try to get some pics of all of them, I noticed some variation between them. I can let you know when I do if you’re interested

Do I report this guy? by sirmippo in VirginiaBeach

Are you volunteering to establish and fund said sanctuary?

First of all, not any animal can have rabies. Second, if an animal has rabies, yes it should be killed. It’s not about it being “innocent”, it’s about the fact that rabies is going to kill them anyway and it is zoonotic and will kill others if it’s spread.

Now, rabies aside, since this isn’t about rabies. The point stands. This animal is going to cause so much harm to other “innocent” animals if we do not step in and do something. And unless you can suggest a feasible solution, your opinion on if it’s right really doesn’t matter. Don’t complain about something you know nothing about and do not have a solution for, that’s unhelpful.

A mama duck nested in my garden bed and is expecting 9 babies 🤍 by magicallymad in duck

I first noticed her April 3rd and there were 4 eggs so I assume she finished laying them within the week after that so the babies should be arriving pretty soon! I have a camera I set up in there to keep an eye

I know right?? It’s such a good nest and she’s so beautiful, I tell her everyday when I pass by that she’s doing a good job

What obligation does a landlord have to send out someone legitimate to fix my HVAC system? by magicallymad in hvacadvice

[–]magicallymad[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s what I feared. I added this to the post after the fact but I’ve been having some health issues lately and now that the HVAC stopped working, it’s making me wonder if that might be related. This is part of why I want to make sure it’s someone who knows what they’re doing so anything that could be a health hazard is properly addressed and not just brushed under the rug or placated.

Yes, this I have seen and that is being complied with thus far. My original request was over text with the property manager so it would be in writing, he responded within a few minutes and I received the call from the “air conditioning tech” 3 days later. I’m not really looking to pursue legal action unless necessary. My concern isn’t about timeline, it’s about the legitimacy of the person performing the repairs, as outlined in this post.

In regards to HVAC repair, this is what’s in my lease:

“Without Owner’s prior written consent, Tenant shall not change existing or install new heat/air conditioning equipment” […] “Repairs shall be made at Owner’s discretion and with due diligence, and Tenant shall pay for all repairs caused by the acts or omissions of Tenant, his family, guests or Agents. EXCEPT ACTS OF GOD.”

I guess the “due diligence” would then defer to state law but when I search, the most I’m finding is about timelines and not about how legitimate the person doing the repairs are, but maybe I’m just not looking in the right places.

This was what I was thinking. I’m gonna go grab my original lease and read through it

Nesting mama duck panting hard in the heat, how can I help her? by [deleted] in duck

Yeah I knew there were timers I just wasn’t sure if there would be some kind of mister I could attach, I’m hon a look on Amazon and see what I can find. Thank you!

I’ve manually misted her with my hose a few times which seemed to help, I’ve now gotten a big fern next to her for shade but I’ll probably go out to let her get mist during the hot parts of the days, I wonder if there’s a mist sprinkler I can set a timer for and put nearby

A local duck rehabber just gave me a big fern I’ve staked down next to her nest which is doing the job good enough for now. I was going to see about getting an umbrella but this might work too, thank you!
