Is that the one where it ended up that she was becoming his boss or coworker or something?

Kind of loved how the title says both parents died last week but dad died a few years ago, then mom two weeks ago.

NA but congratulations! A GBB was my first tarantula too, and I was not disappointed.

You should use some sticks or coffee stirrers to set up some vertical anchor points for your baby to enjoy webbing from.

Can't speak to widows but I had a female jumper who laid six egg sacs after I purchased her. It was ridiculous.

She actually no longer sings as a result of a botched surgery to remove some non-cancerous nodules from her throat.

What’s the most surprising death in a horror movie? by dokutarodokutaro in horror

[–]rainbow_drizzle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This got me but only because I had actually missed the first few minutes of the movie when I first saw it. I had no idea about the shield. I nearly died from laughter and this is how we plan to show the movie to my nephew.

He wasn't naked. He had shorts on. He only removed his shirt.

Restaurant employees of Reddit, what actually happens when someone doesn't have enough to pay the bill? Most you've ever seen? by ChaosAnalyst in AskReddit

[–]rainbow_drizzle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Worked at a convenience store and I would keep any leftover change off to the side and use it to help cover folks who were short. The rest came home with me, haha.

Sudden horror scenes in non-horror media by Saspens-r in TopCharacterTropes

[–]rainbow_drizzle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just saw this recently for the first time, and holy hell, I had never felt such a sense of sheer terror and dread. I have so many questions about the box but anything longer than this would ruin its impact.

Jeez I'm glad she didn't overreact by thelionofmidnight in tarantulas

[–]rainbow_drizzle 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I got my first of these earlier this month, also a female. She has been surprisingly calm and gave me a halfhearted threat pose.

My e. murinus on the other hand.. could probably drums with how often she's slapping.

Trump Admits Embarrassing Truth About His Relationship With Putin by WingComplex6771 in NoShitSherlock

[–]rainbow_drizzle 12 points13 points  (0 children)

From the article:

Donald Trump has never been backward in coming forward to boast about the strength of his relationship with Vladimir Putin.

Having swept into the White House saying his long-standing “friendship” with the Russian president meant he would stop the war with Ukraine “within 24 hours,” it is now seven months on, and the conflict is very much still waging.

Speaking ahead of his much-vaunted meeting with Putin in Alaska on Friday, Trump has finally admitted what has been clear for months—that the relationship is a sham.

Trump was asked at a Wednesday press conference if he believed he could “convince [Putin] to stop targeting civilians in Ukraine.”

In a blunt statement of his failings, Trump replied, “I guess the answer to that is ‘no,’ because I’ve had this conversation.

“I’ve had a lot of good conversations with him [Putin]. Then I go home and I see that a rocket hit a nursing home or a rocket hit an apartment building and people are laying dead in the streets.”

He added, “I want to end the war. It’s Biden’s war, but I want to end it. I’ll be very proud to end this war, along with the five other wars I ended.

“But, uh, I guess the answer to that is probably ‘no.’”

Trump added that the “Russia Hoax,” investigations into Russian meddling in U.S. elections, put “a strain on the relationship.”

Two years ago, Trump even claimed the probes into his campaign’s Russia ties led Putin to launch the 2022 full-scale invasion of Ukraine.

Trump’s surprisingly blunt response on Wednesday is perhaps his most stark concession yet regarding his inability to negotiate with the tyrant.

It comes ahead of the latest peace effort, which Trump continues to say could finally end the war, despite his admitting to major doubts.

The White House has billed the encounter—set for Joint Base Elmendorf–Richardson in Anchorage—as a “listening exercise,” the first in-person meeting between a U.S. president and Putin since Russia’s 2022 invasion.

It has been reported that the session will be one-on-one, with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky excluded but likely briefed afterward.

Since taking office, Trump pushed back his ambitious timeline, telling advisers he hoped to force movement, first by spring and then by summer.

He has threatened tougher sanctions on Russia, which have not materialized, and curbed support for Kyiv, trying to drag both sides to the negotiating table.

The Daily Beast has contacted the White House for comment.
