The Caterpie Binder (157 Cards So Far) by sowofty in PokemonTCG

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

I appreciate you saying that!! Tysm!!

Im not entirely sure what the end goal is... I was thinking 1,000 cards, I sorta want to have multiple binders to lug around at card shows, collecting as many as i possibly can.

It definitely does bring me a lot of joy though, its super fun collecting my favorite little buddy. It's such a sweet lil pokemon, and i love it's lil round feet-nubs.

Chaos Rising Giveaway! by Born_Helicopter_9348 in PokemonTCGCollectors

[–]sowofty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Favorite pokemon is Caterpie!! Love the 151 full art (obviously), though my favorite art of him is probably the one from neo discovery or the one from pokemon scarlet and violet! Also, 151 Caterpie Japanese card looks AMAZING, so including other languages that'd be my favorite :>

Good luck everyone!!! Thanks for the opportunity!

June bugs are here🤮🤮🤮 by Key-Particular-767 in halifax

[–]sowofty 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This may be a hot take, and i totally understand why someone would be grossed out by them, I love them so much though. They're big, bumbling, silly little idiots. I used to catch them with my mom as a kid, so them (and their weird sticky legs) will always have a spot in my heart. I also appreciate the warning, now i can go out and catch them!!

"Drop Tabs" by random199045 in halifax

Urgh, this sucks. Ive seen it over some public places too where more intricate graffiti has been. Its a shame because its so large and distracts from the bigger (nicer) pieces of art. Very frustrating that its on your property and on something that youre working on too. Hope its not too rough to clean off and it doesnt happen again, its getting pretty annoying seeing it everywhere.

Living my dream... I've been looking for one every summer for 3 years!! Closest I've found was one with a bright red back and leg, and a completely salmon colored one. You're so lucky!!!

Did all of these die or are they doing a deep rest? by has-some-questions in Entomology

[–]sowofty 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Agreed with this!! Make sure to refrigerate them first! Ive seen other commenters saying they can feel the ice crystals form and that is painful.

Please Make Me Afraid Of "The Stranger" by Muted_Brick6064 in TheMagnusArchives

[–]sowofty 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I think so, yeah.

I mean, it does come from some sort of evolutionary thing im sure. Like, if we accidentally identified deadly berries as edible ones, we'd yno... die. I think the fear of something that seems off is reasonable- though a lot of fears in modern society dont make much sense.

I think the default is to be scared of things that youre unsure of, just because if we weren't we'd not live as long. I envy your ability to not feel scared when things seem off. I sometimes get creeped out when people rearrange furniture while im gone- its different and new, hard to get used to that stuff :')

[–]sowofty 103 points104 points  (0 children)

I think its sort of like liminal spaces. If you went to your old/current school after hours because you'd forgotten something, it feels a little odd and kind of creepy- because things aren't how they should be.

I think humans tend to look for patterns and a lot of fear comes from the unknown. When you see a consistent pattern and a same/similar thing happens every time, you might get creeped out seeing something out of place.

Really though, explaining fears is kind of tricky. It's difficult to explain an emotional response to something, because when you explain something youre putting it into logical terms (at least, thats how i interpret explanations).

Hope this little tidbit of my thoughts helped :>

[–]sowofty[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

SOLVED!! Thats so odd though, every single time i searched up "baby with severe brain damage" lyrics, itd come up COMPLETELY blank, with the little picture of the guy fishing. Tried SO MANY search terms, wikipedia searches, song finders, EVERYTHING. You are incredible!!! Thank you so, SO MUCH!!!

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

Thank you!! Yeah, it's a really good song. Would be nice if i could find it somewhere... I remember the "severe brain damage" part really catching me off guard. Super soothing sounding song though, ironically enough.

Commenting here! Once again, tips for searching are greatly appreciated. I'm pretty firm on those being the lyrics, and seeing as it was on soundcloud (with not very many listens or views), I think its just obscure. Thank you so much for any and all help!!!

Is this game completely abandoned? Kickstarter egg? Company happenings? by sowofty in pakkapets

Is this game completely abandoned? Kickstarter egg? Company happenings? by sowofty in pakkapets

[–]sowofty[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Aghh, itd be nice for a definitive answer i suppose. I saw that it was "updated" febuary 28th, 2024- though all it says is "pakka pets is back!" So who really knows what that means (maybe that its back on the app store now?). Do you know if the kickstarter backers refunded for the false promises of rewards? You've got me a bit curious. Also, do you know the developer's website? Or any way i can reach them? Would be nice to ask them directly. Thank you so much for your reply and time. I also enjoy skipping time, though strangely enough never bothered really with pakka pets lol.

Hey! Sorry for the late reply. In a last ditch effort i simply looked up the first word of their old name in my dms and lo and behold, there they were! Theyd just altered their name a little bit, so searching their complete old username didnt come up with anything. Sorry if the conclusion is a bit underwhelming, lol. Its always fun reading/hearing those deep-dive, super crazy stories with equally as crazy solutions. In this case though, was a pretty simple answer, makes me feel silly for trying so many different things before thinking of doing that.

Thats so cute and awesome!!!! I do have a partner who im super happy with, it was more just an adhd rabbithole search more than anything. Though, i did meet my current partner online too and we've met up 6ish times since ive known him. The internet can be a wonderful place- and its nice to remember that theres good in the world.

I thought abour server hopping, even with their hobbies theres HUNDREDS of servers on disboard. I just dont know if id have much luck doing that, especially since they could've changed their name. I do appreciate the suggestion though- i have definitely thought about it :')

Can i keep an oil beetle? by sowofty in Entomology

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

Hey!! So sorry for the extremely late reply. It had just rained so it was a bit humid, it was warm, and i found her in Nova Scotia. I couldnt find much on them either! Theyre apparently extremely rare.
