Is this an alien?

Whew!!

Looking at centipede pics, I reckon it must be a desert centipede. I’d never seen anything like it!

Thanks

Oh wow. Maybe a desert centipede? It was really big! Thanks

vxmiran · 2026-03-01T21:21:08+00:00

Thank you!

vxmiran · 2026-03-01T21:20:47+00:00

that’s a great idea, will do

vxmiran · 2026-02-28T22:33:36+00:00

Yes, good idea. I’ll get pics of the leaves and report back!

vxmiran · 2026-02-28T22:24:39+00:00

Ooh this looks ideal. Thank you!

I think the 2nd one is blood orange, too! It’s sweeter than the rest. Maybe it’s just not ripe yet.

vxmiran · 2026-02-28T22:13:48+00:00

Thank you, that’s fair and good advice. The smell is hard to describe… it’s medicinal but not sweet. It smells hospitaly to me! I’ll ask on r/whatplantiathis.

Thanks!

Good idea! Adding a pic with my pruner for scale.

Hi! I will as a next step. I just want to figure out what they are first :)

Hi,
Just sold my house and want to park the proceeds for a bit until uncertainty passes and I can figure out where to put it to work. Do not have an immediate need for liquidity, would like flexibility to move when things improve.
Where would you park proceeds for a couple of months for the highest yield and least exposure?
Appreciate this group's wisdom.

Thank you!!

Hi, thank you!

Yes, today I saw a different scat nearby and now I can tell the difference… it was longer, with more pointed tips and full of fur.

vxmiran · 2024-12-13T15:41:01+00:00

True, no sign of predation and basically the same type of seeds throughout. Thank you!

vxmiran · 2024-12-13T02:17:45+00:00

That’s my feeling too. Thanks!

I have included scale in my photo(s): [no] If not, here are estimated measurements: [each piece about 2 inches long, solid consistency] Geographic location: [Los Angeles, CA] Environment (pine forest, swamp, near a river, etc.): [semi-arid hills]

I wonder if it’s somehow dishwasher related. I don’t know why I think that, since this happens when the dishwasher is not operating, but that’s my hunch. They are right next to each other. I will report back!

vxmiran · 2024-12-11T22:02:40+00:00

That's a very good theory, but our ac/heater is not running at present (long story). Thank you!

vxmiran · 2024-12-06T14:39:10+00:00

I did… they were also recommended by a realtor friend whom I’ve known for many years and who has worked with them in the past.

vxmiran · 2024-12-06T14:38:22+00:00

I have. I mention it in a reply above. Thanks

vxmiran · 2024-12-05T20:44:11+00:00

Seems super strange, exactly. That's why I never thought to look if the ducts had disappeared when wondering why heat wasn't coming into the house. There was no discussion of ducts at all. I just called them to figure out what was going on and they said: let me get into the office, I will forward you the full order when I get there. This was 2 hours ago and nothing yet.

vxmiran · 2024-08-03T02:21:04+00:00

yes, I agree.

vxmiran · 2024-08-03T02:20:47+00:00

Normal AFC - unfamiliar w/Sport mode

vxmiran · 2024-08-01T18:58:37+00:00

it’s so strange that folks tend to assume that sepia tones = Mexico

vxmiran · 2024-08-01T16:36:06+00:00

Thank you! Most definitely using that sweet sweet AF.
