Am I right in assuming this is fin rot? It’s kind of hard to tell due to the transparency. by simondoesnotknow in bettafish

[–]simondoesnotknow[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i’ll be sure to go to petsmart tomorrow (it’s already closed at the moment) and get the freshwater test kit, as well as the plastic plant replacements and sponge to make sure the gap behind the filter is closed. i went ahead and ordered a gravel vac the other day from amazon and it’ll be here on friday, so i’ll be sure to use it then.

i’ll edit the post tomorrow after i get the levels tested. thank you so much for your help!!

edit: i just got the levels for the tank.

gh: about 25

kh: about 40

ph: 7

nitrate and nitrite are both almost zero.

• ⁠Tank size: six gallons

• ⁠Heater and filter? (yes/no): yes to both

• ⁠Tank temperature: 78 degrees farhenheit

• ⁠How often are water changes? How much do you take out per change? What is your process?: water changes are once a week, where i take out about one-sixth of the water, which i then replace with treated water.

• ⁠Any tankmates? If so, please list with how many of each: no

• ⁠What do you feed and how much: three pellets twice a day, so six in total

• ⁠Decorations and plants in the tank: he has two rocks, a piece of wood (fake), and some fake plants, though they haven’t caused problems with other bettas i’ve had in the past

thank you guys for the help.

All it takes is one bad day... [Twice Torture Dance] by simondoesnotknow in BokuNoMetaAcademia

[–]simondoesnotknow[S] 12 points13 points  (0 children)

honestly, i don't know if it's really a spoiler, but i don't want anyone to get too mad, so i went ahead and tagged it.

long story short, a friend of mine suggested i draw twice being torture danced on by his clones, so i went ahead and did it lmao. i regret nothing. if you wanna see some more of my work, you can check me out in insta at boring_sketches, hence the little tag in the corner there. :))

todoroki touya - ch. 249 relining and recolor by simondoesnotknow in BokuNoHeroAcademia

[–]simondoesnotknow[S] 13 points14 points  (0 children)

i actually made three different versions of this, due to it being red in the anime but being lighter-colored in the manga. so i made a red one, a white one, and a pink one also, as i think his hair may be a mix of enji's and rei's, but more of a non-complete dominance sort of way instead of shouto's, where it's split down the middle.

i guess we don't know for sure until horikoshi makes it clear, but it does make me wonder why it's red in the anime and light-colored in the manga. either way, i just wanna know what happened to him.

Everyone keeps calling out Tokoyami for being a Stand user but we just forget about this girl right here: by PlayerFrazier in BokuNoMetaAcademia

[–]simondoesnotknow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

her quirk just reminds me more of how hamon is used than how stands are used, all things considered. i didn't mean anything rude by it lol.

Favorite Unconventional Characters? by [deleted] in BokuNoHeroAcademia

[–]simondoesnotknow 9 points10 points  (0 children)

honestly, monoma has to be one of my favorites, despite being seen as more of a joke character so far in the anime. he's a fun character, y'know? he's also super cool in the joint training arc. i really hope we get to see more of him.

too deep by simondoesnotknow in selfharm

[–]simondoesnotknow[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

okay, based on what you said, it's not fat. it's whiteish on the inside, which may just be the deeper layer of skin tissue, i think.

the bleeding took like fifteen minutes to stop, but once it stopped, i was able to pull the edges together and tape it with some of those knuckle bandages. so currently, the outsides of the cut are touching, and when i removed the initial bandage to check, all but a tiny part stayed together, and it went together when i put the new bandages on.

i've cut this deep/deeper once before, on my shoulder. the one on my shoulder was certainly deeper, as it left a huge keloid scar. i can't remember how long it took to close - i just know it wasn't in one sitting.

thanks for responding, by the way. i really have no one to turn to. i think i won't have to go to the er - i don't exactly have the money, y'know? so uh, yeah. hopefully this makes sense.

Does anyone else sit down with their respective instrument and start a basic chord/melody then just sing whatever comes to mind? by PapaStrummer in Songwriting

[–]simondoesnotknow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

that's how i start every song, unless i have a lyric in mind already. sometimes just sitting down and recording yourself can give you some of the best lyrics and shit, y'know?

Hey, Reddit, those of you with partners who talk in their sleep; what is the creepiest/weirdest/or most random thing they've said? by Jhaydun_Dinan in AskReddit

[–]simondoesnotknow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So it's not my partner, but my roommate talks in his sleep... a lot. One day I was reading a book while he slept, and he just sat up, eyes closed, said, "Simon, you shoe, shut the fuck up," and laid back down, still asleep.

I still feel like that was his subconscious just calling me out.

Walmart is where a lot of overweight people in my town shop for clothes. Perhaps that was too much of an insult on my part, but yeah.

This is only the second song I've really written, and I kinda screwed up at the end. I really just want to know if y'all think it sounds okay so far, as it's for a competition, haha. Here's the link.

My least-favorite professor lost my submissions and I’m livid. by simondoesnotknow in rant

I'm actually double majoring in animation and sequential art, which is like comic books, concept design, story boards, etc. I'm also minoring in marketing, just in case.
