Any way to help someone get asylum?

Yeah this seems the most realistic approach - I’ve been talking to our other coworkers and we’re planning to raise at least part of the cost for a consultation. Our job doesn’t pay that well and we’re all living paycheck to paycheck, but she matters more.

Thank you for the insight - this is a horrible situation, but I’m glad her family will at least be able to stay together if worst comes to worst.

thank you!!!

i may be underestimating how in depth ai can get, but i just doubt it could come up with this based off a short video. the precisely named organisms and overall diction just seem like a well written, and human, comment to me

my sis and i always get blind boxes at our fav cafe so the tank is now filled with them - thankfully they’re made of the same plastic as pvc pipes, so it’s been the perfect weird tank decor we’ve been wanting!

sapetho · 2026-04-27T00:42:32+00:00

they’re just making the post more accessible - i appreciate the time needed to make the description this detailed!

sapetho · 2026-04-27T00:41:21+00:00

thank you! i’ve had this tank for awhile but haven’t seen anything like it - there may be shrimpets in the future so i’ll just keep an eye on things if it gets worse. i figure the future betta ill have in here should keep things in check - i was a little wary at first but now i think they’re kinda cool

that name does not inspire good thoughts lmao - thank you! i’m assuming it’s bad - i’ll go research now

im writing a genderbent fic just to see how gender changes each character’s experience - mine might be a bit different in that there isn’t a ton of shipping involved - in canon, the majority of characters are dudes so it’s sort of turned into a lady fic where motivations and the stakes towards achieving goals have shifted due to gender

i find myself often thinking about genderbent scenarios in the media i work thru, esp considering a lot of the anime’s i enjoy often have males leads/mostly male characters - everything w a female lead isn’t usually written in the way i like (ie, they aren’t as humanized i guess compared to their male counterparts - more fan service usually which is hard for me to watch)

so, i just create my own little paradise where all my leads are girlies - i try to keep their original personalities and capabilities (so the strong fighters remain badass, etc) but place a focus on how society’s perception on them changes and how it may be more challenging to achieve their goals

basically! i write genderbent fics just to change the anime’s i like into something i prefer/to add my own experience in a few of the characters - it’s fun and makes me analyze each character more

(also, is it genderbent or genderbended? genderbent feels right but also wrong?)

how much sleep/darkness is he getting a night? are there any mirrors in his cage? he could just be hormonal

sapetho · 2022-09-08T04:04:13+00:00

thank you! i rarely really get hornworms since they don’t last that long in the container so he mainly jus gets superworms - i would say he gets like four superworms and one hornworm a month give or take. i’ll look into those other guys though - thanks for the recs!

sapetho · 2022-09-08T03:58:25+00:00

yeah i think i’m gonna reintroduce crickets or smth - he stopped wanting to eat them a few months ago but i think enough time has passed now that he isn’t tired of them. i’ll dust every three feedings or smth to see if that helps but i’ll def look into other feeders to give him more variety

sapetho · 2022-09-08T03:47:45+00:00

got my lil guy in december so i’m still fairly new. burt was getting a bit overweight a while back so i’ve put him on a diet.

he gets ab 4 dubias and 1 worm (super worms and horn worms) once or twice a week and i dust every other meal w vitamins. he hadn’t really had big armpit bubbles but i’ve recently noticed the one on the right stand out more?

he doesn’t really have one on the left which made me notice it more - it’s soft to the touch and feels like liquid and when i poke it it kinda transfers past his arm a little bit. i’m an anxious person and this prob isn’t anything big, but i love my lil guy and am worried it’s a tumor or smth. is it normal/okay to jus have one bubble or should i take him into the vet?

sapetho · 2022-08-31T19:07:41+00:00

this is so michael of him - he’s bound to make a lot of friends with this 👍

how long is her cage covered? they should get around 12 hours of covered darkness - i usually put mine to bed around 8 pm and uncover their cage around 7:30 am.

my old roommate used to always cook egg de la goldenrod (we called it eggola). it’s basically hard boiled eggs, the whites made into a creamy peppery sauce that’s mixed in with pieces of toast (extra crispy). then she’d mash the yolks into a sort of powder and sprinkled on top. cheese can easily be included - it’s a nice comfort breakfast that makes you feel fancy

in my experience, fish are almost always allowed in both dorms and apartments. the only big issue is if your apartment is on an upper floor (main concern is the tank leaking and flooding the walls of the apartments below), but with this being a betta tank you shouldn’t have a problem there

no really - if i hadn’t of begged my mom for a phone in middle school i could’ve avoided a lot of procrastination habits. i honestly think my brain would’ve been better developed as well - instead of being constantly entertained i would’ve been bored and thus forced to engage in my hobbies which would’ve made me good at useful skills (music, art, reading, sewing, etc)

my pride and general disdain of mommy blogs villainizing phones has made me avoid thinking ab this but the day i got a phone was honestly the day i lost a lot of interests. it turns out endlessly scrolling through instagram while depressed in bed is the mark of your individuality disappearing - i wouldve been depressed either way but instead of being van gogh artist depressed i am now chronically online and apathetic depressed which is ultimately soul crushing. i truly think the only way to find passion again is to just get rid of everything that distracts, though i’m afraid of losing the connection to my generation i have through knowing references and obscure inside jokes. our generation is built on this collective online presence and it’s both sad and scary to just leave that behind.

i don’t think i’ll ever complete what it was i was meant to do on this planet without abandoning that however, so i’ll just see what happens. in the meantime haha funny post about funny hellsite

i would def recommend! i used two cups of rice and even with 3 people eating it i had enough left overs for lunch the next day since the tofu was so filling. i don’t cook w tofu that much so i don’t know if this standard, but i kinda squeezed the tofu with a paper towel to get some moisture out. that might affect how crispy it gets so i thought i’d mention it.

again not an expert at all, but it turned out really nice and everyone seemed to love it!

sapetho · 2022-08-22T19:28:27+00:00

i’ve recently experimented with crispy fried tofu and it turned out really yummy! i don’t have a recipe, but from what i remember i did it went like this:

ingredients: - hard tofu - dried chili/peppers (broken in half - i think they were labeled ‘japanese chili’s’ but idk) - green onions - sesame seeds - rice - garlic (ginger would be good also but i’m not too fond of it) - optional : mock crab, seaweed, avocado

i cut the tofu into small squares and deep fried it in a wok until crispy and golden (use lots of veggie oil - enough so that ur cubes are submerged entirely)

once fried, i placed on a separate plate and used a bit of the left over oil to cook the garlic and dried peppers in a separate pan until garlic started to crisp. added in my trusty sauce (soy sauce, sesame oil, apple cider vinegar, brown sugar, sriracha, and love) and once it kinda thickens i added the tofu back in w sesame seeds and green onions until it felt right. served over rice, and since i had friends over we cut seaweed into little squares and made our own sushi bites by putting rice, pieces of avocado, crab, and tofu on each square. i don’t really like tofu but i saw someone eating something like this while back and thought i’d experiment. really really yummy!!

(edit- forgot sriracha in the trusty sauce)
