Neverwinter Nights and Roller Coaster Tycoon when I was a little kid. I watched my dad play Neverwinter and had to indulge in my own tiny fantasy to play as a “dragon.” Still at it.

Consider your possible “cures” in the same way humans “cure” their blindness. If your dragon has cataracts, surgery could be an option if you could find a vet willing, able, and trained to do it. But if this is a natural degredation from age, there is no “cure.”

It was a battle between my queer identity and my biologist identity. For regular browsing and posting, science won out. But I have an account with blajah.zone too to discuss the queer agenda.

I consider myself a people, and I prefer my body jewelry to be gold if I can afford it. A few pieces are gold-colored anodized titanium (which are fading), but very prominent pieces are solid gold. I like yellow gold, not rose gold. I actually think titanium/“silver” looks more tacky than gold.

But that’s just for pieces of jewelry that go into my body. For bracelets and such, I prefer brass, leather, and shades of brown. I don’t wear necklaces.

Gold cars are disgusting though.

The gain and then subsequent slashing of human rights based on fascist beliefs and lack of representation (and possibly over representation by fringe groups that capture the news cycle). Across the world, populism and fascism is gaining in popularity - again. It felt like we’d gotten past this point for a minute.

They have “teeth” in the same way some birds have “teeth.” For tortoises, there are some pointy bits on the beak that function similar to our teeth, but they do not fall out like ours often do. It’s just for pulling leaves off of plants in arid environments. Again, some birds have “teeth” almost like this, but they function more like filters for birds that sort through mud and water to find food.

Thanks, appreciate the compliments!

There is not yet enough content for your sort selection to really matter. I sort by new because at least I’ll see more content as stuff is posted throughout the day.

Adorable! Yeah, I saw like 8 or so of these guys that one night. Their mannerisms are amusing. These were in dry forest too though just outside the main part of town.

My plants are (mostly) loving the sunshine! Plant lights can only do so much.

Those are ADORABLE. Maybe my next post will be some baby tarantulas trying to figure out how to cross a road (I hear tarantula moms aren’t into childcare like SOME arachnids…).

Fortunately, there are many of these frogs in the right habitat at the right time of year, heh.

I feel you. My monstera is working on coming back from the dead. I agree with the other comment that this leaf looks pretty useless. Unless you rapidly moved your plant between lighting regimes like I did, it’s probably a normal thing!

It’s just more cryptic diversity by way of genetics and call analysis! So, not far, but likely more endemic to Honduras than previously thought (as is the trend with a lot of herpetofauna in the region).

Thanks, I will! I only give up when the plant really gives up (or ants invade and it’s not worth it–RIP spider plant).
