  • Tja, fuck…

    Dass sich so viele Leute per Desinformation in die Angst treiben lassen, macht einen echt traurig
    Was ich die letzte Zeit alles für nen Blödsinn gehört hab. Und wenn man Mal nachfragt, was die FPÖ im Wahlprogramm bspw mit geburtenorientierter Politik meint und wie sie das konkret umsetzen will, krieg ich Antworten wie “du bist also für SkyShield?!”

    Ich mein, die FPÖ ist offensichtlich für höhere Mieten (Abschaffung der Leerstandsabgabe) und Verhinderung einer höheren Besteuerung bei Reichen. Aber Hauptsache die Partei des kleinen Mannes.

    Ich checks echt nicht. Rein plakativ emotionalisiert und das funktioniert.
    Vl ist ne Basis Demokratie doch nicht die beste Idee, wenn Leute sich so leicht täuschen lassen.
    Jeder unverifizierte Bullshit wird geglaubt, so lang es das gewünschte, eigene Weltbild stärkt

    Zum Kotzen…



  • Didn’t try, but could work

    I had some very good experience with lady bugs against aphids. So I was looking for something like that and found a “caterpillar fly” (direct translation, not sure if this is correct. Scientific name: Trichopoda pictipennis)

    Maybe I could set them out in my balcony garden. But as it’s not a real garden, but only a few larger flower boxes, I’m afraid they won’t make it long with an active infestation.

    But I also haven’t found a shop for them yet and don’t know, if they can be applied like lady bugs.
    Can’t stress enough how well that worked against aphids - and I really like them :⁠-⁠)
    With a little “bug hotel” they also came back and tried to settle. But sadly our apartment block had the balconies renovated and I needed to move the hotel and now need to start fresh…


  • Thanks!
    Checked them already after skull givers answer, but haven’t found anything - maybe they already all hatched now…

    This season is already fucked and gone. So I’m currently looking into ways to prevent this next year.

    I’ve read that spraying peppermint helps to keep them away. But we got a bit really wanted mint plant this year, which sits just 25-50cm away from the tomatoes.
    Either it’s a different mint and only peppermint works, or the plant alone just isn’t enough…


  • Ah, I think you’re right!
    We are having an infestation this year of those fuckers, but I’ve only seen the adult ones until now.

    Thank you very much!
    Those have become a pest here.

    If someone knows how to keep them away, it would be very much appreciated.

    Edit: the only thing I’ve found was manual removing them or spraying them with vinegar and soap water. I’ve now freed my 3 poor plants of them manually (into a bag with vinegar, soap and hot water)
    At least now I know, why all our tomatoes this year started to rot with some mold infection

    Yeah, I’m trying.

    But I’m fighting for the life of my cat and I’m cooking food for him every 2 hours - since 2 months.

    Me and and my wife are already completely devastated, because we also need to somehow work…

    So getting some real sleep wasn’t an option for quite some time.

    At the moment he is doing better, and I’m trying to get the portions a bit bigger and the times between feeding larger. But it will probably be a process.

    And as this has taken an enormous emotional toll on us, I’ve stepped up my liquor intake. Which doesn’t help with good sleep as well.

    At least he is currently fine…
    That was what we were aiming for. And how I am didn’t matter much - until now I got some some more serious problems as well, because of not sleeping and all the stress.

    Sorry for just venting… I’m just finished…

    Ah, fuck yeah I missed the period…

    Well, my only excuse is that I didn’t got much sleep in the last… 2 months

    Edit: after that fuck up being be so sleep deprived, I’m not confident enough to point out my mistake anymore

    *he’s
    I know, pedantic, but I don’t understand, how someone can think, that this is grammatically correct.
    I just don’t get, how someone can confuse “his” and “he’s”

    (OK, need to proof read my sentence now to not fuck myself ;-))

    Sorry, I’m misread. Even down voted myself now

    Edit: and seems my formatting skills aren’t working out as well.

    Edit 2: ok, looks better now.
    Yeah, was wrong and misread the sentence. My fault

    I’m 40 and would have no idea how big penis of a toddler should be - and with all growth hormone stuff happening, I wouldn’t feel comfortable at judging at this age (besides that it is mostly irrelevant in long term relationships)

    Also, my personal penis, so to speak, can be very minor, but as a grower I needed to step up my confidence, when being naked - but of curse instead of an actual micro penis, mine seems to be just shy and needs some encouraging words or kisses.
    So maybe I can’t relate.

    Still I think this idea is idiotic
