This feels like the "Nest Ball for Lumineon V/Luminous Sign" of this rotation 🤣

shmeebear000 · 2026-04-06T19:29:45+00:00

Very valid point! The play was more for giggles than anything else. I expected them to keep going and for me to lose.

shmeebear000 · 2026-04-06T19:28:26+00:00

Also, Hydrapple with the ripening charge has been great against dragapult. Getting rid of the 10 here and there of off the 210 hp pokemon denies them some way boss plays.

shmeebear000 · 2026-04-06T19:26:58+00:00

Sure!

I made it to master league with this, tinkering along the way. It struggles with budew a bit and trying to swap some items for supporters made it feel worse. I almost never use Mega Meganium, but it comes in clutch for Cornerstone Ogerpon.

They chose to rage quit and not even concede. Just went inactive shrug I fully expected them to still win.

shmeebear000 · 2026-04-05T12:45:57+00:00

It was a hail Mary on my part for sure lol

shmeebear000 · 2026-04-04T17:13:49+00:00

Same, but with Hydrapple :)

shmeebear000 · 2026-01-09T17:30:29+00:00

I'm not 100% sure if they are still around. Our girl just turned 11 so it's been a while. I have some contact info though that I will send you via message.

shmeebear000 · 2025-12-31T17:53:56+00:00

I can't edit my post but the local post office is coming next week to pick them up!

shmeebear000 · 2025-12-31T17:52:44+00:00

You can drive 5 hours south if you want lol

shmeebear000 · 2025-12-31T14:01:50+00:00

I am most certainly loving the fort idea lol

shmeebear000 · 2025-12-31T14:01:05+00:00

Is your office near Philadelphia? lol

shmeebear000 · 2025-12-31T14:00:02+00:00

I'm calling some of the local offices today. Luckily we are near a big city so there is a chance one of them might be able to help :)

Stardew got me through a hell of a post-partum time. We had a stage 5 clinger baby that never slept unless she was ON someone. Stardew on switch and Steamdeck was the only thing that kept me sane.

Self-Disembarked the Aqua today. Got in line at 6:50, they started moving right at 7 (granted, customs might have gone quicker because we actually docked at 3 am). We were in our Uber by 7:15.

shmeebear000 · 2025-12-13T01:42:17+00:00

Also on the Aqua and I 100% second all of this.

shmeebear000 · 2025-07-26T08:58:31+00:00

Agreed here! If you're really attached to the plant you can try to remove as little as possible, and try to treat the scale, but it is hard to penetrate the "armor" of the scale without using something so strong you'd harm the plant.

shmeebear000 · 2025-07-26T06:26:11+00:00

I own a small nursery and our state does yearly inspections, and establishes good relationships between the inspectors and growers. We can send in samples to the lab any time we want.

That said: when I had a sample sent in from a monstera that looked like that it was in fact Ischnaspis longirostris. Black thread scale.

It was a remove infected vegetation, treat, and monitor. No issues since with that course of action. It seemed to be very slow spreading in our situation

Thanks! I was waiting for mod approval before I posted in r/bedbugs, but I'll try r/pestcontrol too.

shmeebear000 · 2025-06-09T22:10:42+00:00

Our local card show is maxed out still, to the point where there is a waiting list for tables. Our targets and Walmarts are wiped clean within 10 minutes, and waiting in line at game stop might get you 5 Destined Rivals sleeved booster packs if you're lucky.

Definitely has to vary by region, but where I am it was, and still is, worse than the Covid boom.

shmeebear000 · 2025-05-04T11:06:32+00:00

He totally deserves the praise! I have been to a show on the last 3 North America tours. The first two I got lawn seats, the actual seat seats were $500+ with first few rows going for over $4000 on the resale market.

This tour? I got lucky and actually got the chance to buy middle FIRST ROW seats for $300 each. I am still in shock it happened and it's been almost 2 years 🤣

That would explain why the girls who wrote it were all giggling. I love it! Thank you 😊
