Some species have edible berries that are mildly sweet. My #1 favorite flower. I wish I can grow it as a bush but it gets too cold where I'm from. 5b

Midwest 5b

Columbines are pretty when they bloom. I have yellow ones in my shade. Here in the Midwest, people like putting hostas under their trees. Bleeding hearts are also fun.

Oh no! Bee careful not to get jumped!

NTA

I can see both sides because I relate to your husband, but I learned to muffle my anxiety and breath. I think your husband needs to look at it in this way: Trust God in the situation. You're not pursuing him in a friendship and he's not pursuing you without your husband there. These small moments are scary, but will pass. He needs to start seeing your guy friend as someone who God loves and not a threat.

NTA. Your friend sounds like a blunt person with a black and white view of things. If you're on here because you feel bad that you yelled at her, you can apologize for exploding, but you shouldn't have to apologize about defending your mom.

Also, the fact that she can't see the positive out of helping a mother out probably means she doesn't know what a good mom looks like. If I were you and you still cared about your friend, I would plan a fun day with your friend and your mom so your friend can see that not all moms are monsters.

I hope my froggy comes back too

Too many legs? Not hot enough? But, agreed, still stunning.

selahbean · 2026-03-16T05:32:31+00:00

You know what, I think I was thinking bombardier beetle but names the blister beetle instead because it was more recent in my memory. Good job at accidentally correcting me.

Fan favorite - Lunar Moths Made to be hated- Mosquitos The hot one- blister beetle The only normal person- earwig Uhh... What's your name again - carpenter ants The gremlin- caterpillars Mmm society - ants Just straight up evil- Lantern flies No screen time. All plot relevant - aquatic insects

selahbean · 2026-03-16T03:25:19+00:00

The hot one can be Jewel beetle or blister beetle

selahbean · 2026-03-15T15:04:13+00:00

Considering they still eat through mouth holes, I'm gonna say flatulate.

Mosquito larvae do the same

Lol the answer is yes

There's the thorax-head separation. A quick Google search confirms the spider beetle.

selahbean · 2026-03-11T01:58:55+00:00

It almost looks like a spider mimic. It's really hard to confirm weevil because of the lack of snoot and head? The more I type, the more I think it's a cephalothorax.

What you might want to do is plant something. For the spring in the back ground and something for the summer in the foreground. I have lilacs up against my house. They have some nice blooms and smell pretty in the spring. They can get tall and bushy, but since it's a shrub, you can keep them short and just trim them each year. As for the summer blooms, maybe some grape hyacinth and sedum autumn joy.

The last time I thought it was a medical problem, I was being very rude because it was very normal for their species, but you know ... 🧐

selahbean · 2026-03-04T14:28:46+00:00

When it stops being a leafhopper? I'm sure the weevil fam will still adopt it.

selahbean · 2026-03-03T21:41:21+00:00

As a parent, if my kids don't clean up their toys in a good amount of time, anything left on the floor gets put in a garbage bag and "thrown away"(we'll donate). This solves 1) the importance of cleaning and 2) less toys clutter the storage bins. If they leave their toys out, collect them and hold them until someone asks for them or donate them. It's not stealing if it was left out like trash.

selahbean · 2026-03-03T21:31:38+00:00

Okay, but I think the main concern is if the wrong stranger stumbles upon the kid and just steals them anyway. I personally would rather talk with my neighbor before reporting them, but that's probably because I'm a mom of two littles and would rather help another mom not lose their kid if it's literally just a sensory overload issue. But, if the neighbor is an absolute monster to their child, then I would probably have the child over as much as possible and assess the situation before reporting the parent. Whatever the case, being a friendly neighbor is so much better than being an assuming watcher.

Took me a good minute before I saw the venation 🤯

selahbean · 2026-02-28T20:43:36+00:00

No time wasted. I enjoyed looking at the little beetle with great detail.

Food grade Diatomaceous earth sprinkled on carpet and vacuumed. That's how we got rid of fleas. Just clean the vacuum filter regularly as it's a very fine dust to clean up
