[Reddit comment from Glittering-Step6037 reading: I cut out teeny pictures and show them to my betta. Once he seems interested in a few, I tape them to his tank so he has his own art to look at (hint, cooler colors and things that wouldn't be mistaken for eyes are perfect, mine actually like geometric designs and two colors stacked i also try to spend time letting him get to know my voice and face, sometimes ill bring home plants or new stones or gems and sit at my tank just talking to him calmly the whole time. I just say out loud little stories or what im actively doing and why, etc etc. Since fish hear you vi feeling the vibrations through the water, I try to speak like how I would want a wall of vibrations to have a smooth ripple instead of sudden and choppy. Also, dry erase markers. Sometimes I draw a little house with windows or little "maze" parts of plants or just interesting shapes for him to follow and inspect. Also before I add a new plant of anything, I will hold it up against the glass for him to check out, then I place it slowly. He waits so nice and watches then when im out of the water he will go and touch it. /End ID]

it is likely possible to rid your apartment of roaches fully through a concentrated effort of around 2 weeks btw if pest control is not an option you have to comb every inch of the apartment for nests and clear them out and them comb every inch and i mean every single inch for cracks and seal them with plaster or duct tape depending no matter how small and put mosquito nets on the windows and vents, congratulations now you have zero roaches and it's physically impossible for new roaches to come in as long as you cover every drain while you're not using it. most places will give you the advice of traps + keep the place pristine clean and i feel this makes many people give up thinking well i can't keep it pristine clean plus if there's an infestation in your building no amount of cleaning will save you but sealing the whole apartment actually will save you. my place and the place my parents are currently at were both abandoned by previous tenants due to roaches persisting even after pest control but after i sealed every crack there's been grand total of zero roaches. most tenants give up right before sealing that one last crack between the ceiling lamp and the ceiling!!! i also did this on a building level where everyone was saying cleaning was hopeless because the roaches were getting into the building through the patio drain so i started covering it at night with a big heavy plant pot and boom instant 95% decrease in roaches for all of us, seal or cover your holes today, and no i dont keep my place pristine clean because i cant but putting in effort at the start of the summer gets me a beautiful roach free summer every year, it might seem obvious but i didnt know this when i first moved in and i really thought the situation was hopeless during the first summer and that i would have to find another place but that was not the case

happy disability pride month to mean cripples, nasty addicts, people with down syndrome who arent nice and talk constant shit, wheelchair users that WILL run you over, autists that dont care and arent about to pretend to, people who lie to their psychiatrists, people that sit on the floor in public places with no benches, amputees that lie profusely about "what happened"; to the "noncompliant", the "drug seeking", the "mean", the "difficult" and the "undeserving", and so on and so forth, i love us all and we deserve the world actually mwah mwah

you guys do realize memorizing a story doesn't actually preserve it right? it just destroys it entirely and places a perfect copy of it in your brain to be retold at a future performance
