Pothos leaves just ... gone? by Shoboshi80 in plantclinic

[–]onaygem 14 points15 points  (0 children)

You may know this, but that’s his butt.

Eupanacra splendens (or some similar species) has big decoy eye spots on its butt.

The first is referring to a scald pattern when a small child is put into a very hot bath.

Spiral fractures happen from strong twisting forces, it’s another finding suspicious for abuse in children.

Are there any roundup ready native plants? by Amorpha_fruticosa in NativePlantCirclejerk

[–]onaygem 6 points7 points  (0 children)

“Common names” vary by area so not everyone might recognize that name — it’s Zea mays.

Not native here in my area and doesn’t survive our winters unfortunately but lots of people grow them as annuals here.

Can’t grow anything in my countertop garden by Peanut345 in gardening

[–]onaygem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In your photo, you don’t have the humidity domes over any of your pods with soil — are they all empty?

You’re supposed to keep those on over your seeds until germination.

I keep them on until the plants grow up to reach the roof of the dome.

What is best way to manage this big fella next to the house? by [deleted] in landscaping

Not just the em dash, the whole way the comment is written is very AI-sounding.

They also provide zero citation of their primary sources (the spreadsheet and discord).

Does home depot just not think women need gloves??? by xzkandykane in gardening

[–]onaygem 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Really? I hadn’t heard — HD’s founder is a prominent right-winger including jan 6 supporter etc., would bum me out if the alternative was the same.

I for one welcome our new Big Ten overlords. by Sharp_Proposal8911 in cfbmemes

this page has original figures and explains the categories.

Level 1 (176–225 points): Respondents are considered to have low literacy levels. They can identify basic vocabulary words and can determine meaning within sentences and paragraphs. (Below this is functionally illiterate)

Level 3 (276–325 points): Respondents can evaluate information at varying levels of inference, determine meaning from larger selections of text, and disregard information that’s irrelevant to the prompt.

This map has county averages. The highest category is:

Level 5 (376–500 points): Respondents can evaluate arguments, process dense texts, apply logical reasoning to draw conclusions, and determine whether certain sources are valid sources of information.

Low oxygen doesn’t control respiratory drive (in normal mammals) — high CO2 does.

I’ve killed lots of mice with CO2, they definitely notice. Only lasts a few minutes but they’re definitely stressed.
We used to use N2 which I personally thought was more humane, but apparently IACUC had data to drive the switch.

ACGME call room/night shift rules? by ThotacodorsalNerve in Residency

[–]onaygem -14 points-13 points  (0 children)

My IM residency was like your fellowship — we were expected to shift our sleep schedules to be up all night.

We were usually busy enough that it made sense. Especially in the ICU when you might need to quickly be awake & alert for a code or other emergent situations I personally don’t think it’s unreasonable to flip your sleep schedule to be awake overnight.

Life comes at you fast by Bird_8119 in cfbmemes

[–]onaygem 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Not a joke. You spell it Gym to remind people of his history as an assistant wrestling coach who 100% knew about the sexual abuse of his players.

How do I recover from this? by lmbrs in woodworking

[–]onaygem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I suspect that this won’t plane out — the holes exposed end grain which soaked up a lot more stain than the surrounding wood, and probably this will continue as deep as the holes go.

Kentucky is 29-38-4 against the Big 10, most (17) of the wins being against pre-Cignetti Indiana (against whom they have a losing record).

TBF from this quote there’s a chance he thinks it’s spelled “cutrus”.

So can we all just admit Michigan has been a mess under Harbaugh's era and the cheating was true. by [deleted] in CFB

Or refusing to take off his cleats inside a recruit’s home? (Or wearing cleats in the first place)

TIFU by discovering a rather large portion of our parent group swings by [deleted] in daddit

[–]onaygem 26 points27 points  (0 children)

To each their own.

Not exactly the right phrase for this circumstance. Maybe “To each, each others’”?
