My tell is being able to continuously double jump and thus jankilly fly.

Seriously though. The first time I took adderall I went and took the best nap of my life.

Euphoria is a very common start up side effect of adderall that should go away after a few weeks. It’s like antidepressant startup sideeffects except this one happens to be pleasant. It could have just been that.

Overthinking has to be my favorite hobby.

Mine is a ball python. They seem to prefer basking under the heat lamp after eating. Also they haven’t ever pooped in their water dish that I can remember, but I have had them horf up a partially digested rat in there before. That incident was made even more pleasant by the fact that I had their heat lamp positioned over the water dish at the time (to try and keep humidity up) and it happened while I was sleeping so I didn’t catch it for several hours. So I awoke to my entire house being filled with the miasma of a partially digested rat which had been stewing under a heat lamp for several hours. The smell was indescribable and beyond the imagination of any sane individual.

Unfortunately I don’t think the $20 I have in the bank right now will cover the cost of the test rig.

Oh yeah, basically the easiest way to do it would to pump water out of each basin, through a heat exchanger, and then back into the basin. That way you could have your whole temp control aparatus located outside of the terrarium. Plus that would also easily enable automatic water level management to keep the water levels identical. For your heat exchanger you could just use a CPU water block and a peltier device. You regulate the power going to the peltier device by monitoring a temp sensor in your water return pipe and just pulsing the peltier device on and off at different rates to control the heating or cooling rate. Plus with the peltier device you can just reverse the polarity to switch from heating to cooling to enable the shuffling of the basins. All of this would be controlled and charted in a csv file by a raspberry pi. Additionally you could connect a simple motion sensor so the pi could flag the times the snake was using one of the basins to make it easier to read the data.

Rather than monitoring ambient temp or humidity you would probably be better off just keeping them tightly controlled and constant via other systems. That would further reduce variables for the initial test.

Snake tax. Here’s the little turd the one time they decided to get stuck in my couch. They were perfectly fine but I had to partially dismantle my couch to get them out.

That’s an interesting point. I grew up with well water in MN where our ground water temp is about 43F (6C) so I am used to practically ice cold water just being on tap. It makes sense that what you like is going to vary based on what you’re used to.

I have been thinking that all day. But to do it properly I need a bigger terrarium and some more supplies. You can’t have the dishes be different sizes or that’s an additional variable. But I also want to keep a big enough dish that they can soak in it. They never actually do because I keep the humidity high enough but they should still have the option.

So I need to have a large terrarium with several identical water basins all in the same area. 3 basins would work (warm, room temp, and cool) but ideally I would have several set to various specific temps. Each basin should be able to be heated and cooled to reach a set water temp and which basin has which temp of water needs to be shuffled ocasionally to eliminate selection based on exact basin location or similar variables. That heating and cooling could easily be acheived with a peltier module and a temp sensor on each basin linked to a controller. You would also need a camera to view which basin the snake actually uses.

Of course I already know what would happen. I would spend a couple hundred dollars setting all that up only to learn that my single braincell possessing snake would only ever use the closest basin.

Sometimes when I’m scrolling I accidentallu bump a vote button because that’s just where my thumb sits. I reverse it when I catch it but I’m willing to bet I don’t always catch it.

That’s why you always go with the great old one patron. What they want is beyond human comprehension anyways and they may not even know you exist. You are basically just an ant stealing crumbs of power off their kitchen floor.

The easy fix to this is to just have no shops stock anything worth buying. In one of the campaigns I’m in the party is probably more wealthy than a small country but it’s a rather low magic setting so you can’t just buy magic gear or items. We’ve been investing in real estate and staff instead. But money is now far less important to the party than exploration in search of things we want and doing things for our favorite NPCs.

Also we have killed people via inverting a bag of holding full of money. Everyone loves the idea of receiving 500lbs of gold until they receive it suddenly from above at terminal velocity.

Not if it’s not more fun than a 12ga slug. Not even meaning this in a depression way, I’ll keep working for and looking towards a better future. But when shit really hits the fan I’m not going to be starving to death in a ditch because of environmental collapse or becoming an actual slave to a facist regime. The way I see it, there’s worse things than a quick death.

Looks at the state of the world.

You sure about that?

But damn does pharmaceutical smack make life worth living or what. If only I hadn’t spent nearly 30 years digging myself into a hole before I started it.

I used to do tasks out of spite. I hated myself so I forced myself to do things to spite myself. So if you’re looking for a change in unhealthy coping stratagies then theres that.

As someone who finally got diagnosed at nearly 30, this hurts. Fuck, I’ve wasted so much of my life.

Honestly I’ve only had to renew my liscense once before. I wasn’t sure if any of the information that they would require to pull my record would change when I renewed it.

They did want a picture of my liscense but, thinking about it now, that was probably just for my I9. Like you said, they should only need the number to run my record.
