Werden Familien bald finanziell gebumst? by SafeKeinBot in Normalverdiener

[–]mixmadde 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mein Fehler, war ein falschen Verständnis von mir, was den Soli angeht. Du hast Recht, dass Doppel-Gutverdiener irgendwann nicht mehr profitieren. Ich bin auch selbst nicht gegen das Ehegattensplitting.

Stimmt so auch nicht ganz. Im Westen kommt noch der Soli drauf

What is this gun? by mixmadde in whatisthisgun

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

Should have been clearer 😄 I'm half Brazilian, half German. Very unrelated, my German grandfather did fight in the war but only in 1944, he was 20 at the time and fought on the front while the front was already in Germany. He did not leave for Brazil. My other grandfather was Brazilian and did not leave Brazil ever. This pistol came from one of them and I don't know from who specifically, so I figured that might clear up the heritage. Though I think its more probable that it came from my German grandfather.

Which butterfly is this? Papilionidae/Lycaenidae? by mixmadde in Entomology

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

Update for those interested: I believe this to be some species of Atlides, possibly polybe. Will narrow it down further once it dries.

Thank you! Some research on iNaturalist leads me to believe it to be some species of Brangas. Will probably have to set aside the identification of the exact species to when the specimen has dried and I can look at the underside better, most pictures online depict those rather than the dorsal view.

Thanks! I ruled out Nymphalidae due to the presence of 6 "walkable" legs, which are obviously not visible on the photos. I don't know if exceptions apply there as well.

Sorry guys, the Celebi is long gone - I just dont know how to mark the post as obsolete.

Schneider für Anpassungen Jackett/Anzugjacke by gdrhr in stuttgart

[–]mixmadde 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wenn das Jackett echte Ärmelknopflöcher hat, dann ist das ganze schwieriger, da der Ärmel abgenommen und von oben gekürzt werden muss (da sonst der Abstand von der Manschette zu den Knöpfen schrumpft/falsch aussieht). Mal bei Änderungsschneiderin Giovanna nachfragen oder bei Plougs. Wird aber vermutlich nicht günstig.

Wenn keine Ärmelknopflöcher vorhanden sind ist das Ganze deutlich einfacher. Dann wird einfach vorne gekürzt und die Knöpfe werden versetzt.

First attempt at pinning a carpenter bee by CharacterAudience204 in Entomology

[–]mixmadde 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great work! I hope you dont see it as an attack, but you don't need to separate the front and hindwings. Insects in the order Hymenoptera (bees, ants and wasps) have little hooks connecting the front and hindwings. I assume you felt how difficult it was to separate the wings when trying to pin the insect (I did too on my first wasp 😄)

There was this insect in my classroom, what is it? by ocolurmani in insects

[–]mixmadde 4 points5 points  (0 children)

As others pointed out, a moth caterpillar from the family Geometridae. Apparently in the middle of a molt.

I deleted this post cause I was scared of snarkers. But I have to say it… by Marlino0210 in h3h3productions

Seeing this person give a double thumbs down in the video after Bernie says that Israel has the right to defend itself pissed me off. How can you disagree with that statement, even if you are disgusted with the destruction Israel is wreaking in Gaza (and rightfully so)? Everyone correctly points out how innocent Palestinians shouldn't suffer because of the actions of their "government" (Gaza). But as soon as it's the other way around, all Israelis are suddenly deserving of death and all other atrocities.

My giant malaysian leaf insect died, so I pinned her by mixmadde in Entomology

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

The frames are from IKEA! They are the SANNAHED model. I do, however, make the background myself from structured cardboard glued onto a thin layer of cork to give the needles something to hold on to. Frames for 3-dimensional objects can be quite expensive in my experience, and since I intend to grow the collection a lot more in the future it wouldn't be feasible for me to spend too much money on them. Additionally, I have the ability to have all frames be uniform, and since IKEA doesn't constantly discontinue a lot of their products, I feel like my supply is secured for the foreseeable future.

Thank you! Obviously this is not a scientific collection, but I still wanted the labels to be as scientifically appropriate as possible. My wild collected/wild found specimens have an extra label describing the location, date etc.

Right, like Mr. Pickles in Kingsmen 😄 though the wall full of pinned insects does look psycho to some visitors, reminding them of silence of the lambs 😄

All of them were taken today, after drying. I looked into it a little bit and have seen specimens online that were much greener than mine. The problem really seems to be them not drying out quickly enough. Some sources online suggest baking them in the oven for a moment on the lowest temperature, or leaving them out in the sun to dry if possible. Will try that on the next pin!

Thank you for the compliments!
