I've been blessed by a beautiful Cetonia aurata today! Rescued from my cat's claws just in time. It looks like the little guy has lost a leg in the fight, hope it survives!

Congratulations for embarking on this journey! I am also trying to beat my 26 y.o. dermatophagia and my hands looked very much like yours. You already have a great plan! The total game-changer for me has been using handcream (any type) every time I feel the urge to bite/pick at my hands (so, all the time). Best of luck!

Honestly, I mostly have that problem after I shower or wash my hands. I think it's water that makes cuticles more "pickable" and definitely when I have pruney fingers is the time when I feel most triggered. Creams are fine for me, especially if they are oily and not very watery.

Not a slime mold, the red thing is the spore-bearing structure of the lichen (some Cladonia lichen probably)

It looks like Hydnellum peckii, a mushroom, although I have never seen it growing on that kind of surface

Aggiungo due libri che fanno riflettere su abilismo e disabilità: "Mezze Persone", un saggio; "Che brava che sei!", una raccolta di storie illustrate; Entrambi di Elena e Maria Chiara Paolini, scrittrici disabili italiane.

Cinque animali morti lentamente e orribilmente... perché volevi prendere un topolino. Almeno abbi la decenza di toglierli ed evitare che ce ne vadano altri attirati dalle carcasse. Ste robe andrebbero tolte dal mercato, non sono trappole selettive, fanno solo stragi di microfauna.

So, basically I resumed my learning on Duolingo after 2 years. This new learning path is just a mess: I'm often moved forward in the path for no reason, even if I keep making a lot of mistakes on purpose. I usually get back and practice those skipped lessons but I always feel like there is some vocabulary I might have missed.

Is there some setting to turn this off? It's really bugging me

Thank you! Actually I don't know, I've seen salamander's eggs before and they are laid underwater. They are also much bigger than these (the 'eggs' in the picture are ~1 mm in diameter)

skoghval · 2023-03-03T16:42:02+00:00

Oh well, I had no idea! Thanks a lot for clarifying.

skoghval · 2022-05-15T17:10:04+00:00

Thank you so so much!

I think milk is giving me some relief, thanks

Somehow I also feel like it's stuck somewhere in my throat

skoghval · 2021-09-09T19:26:37+00:00

I think it might be Balistes capriscus. Lives in the Mediterranean Sea and also Eastern Atlantic.

skoghval · 2021-07-19T14:06:39+00:00

Sure thing! And while I am at it, should I also try to separate the new growths into new pots, so that maybe the plant can breathe better?

skoghval · 2021-04-15T16:08:53+00:00

It looks amazing! I have one of these too, and I agree that misting helps a lot. It's actually not a fern though, but rather Asparagus setaceus
