Antidepressants harder to quit than heroin? Fact-checking RFK Jr. Fact checking RFK Jr.: No, antidepressants are not harder to quit than heroin.

Here’s one of my photos from 2010, of Dublin’s pedestrian ha’penny bridge, to wish you a good night & happy dreams!

Oíche mhaith go léir!

Thank you!! 🥰

I tend to have pretty good timing. For example, I started getting therapy like four weeks ago.

This is my second clutch, I start with live baby brine since they’re SO easy to hatch and keep (I bought a cheap kit and eggs on amazon), then started alternating with frozen baby brine. After a couple of weeks they’ll eat frozen!

Banggai dads are mouth brooders, holding and hatching female’s eggs in their mouths. While they’re protecting the babies, they don’t eat for 20 days!

Just like Banggai Cardinals do! So neat.

Right? It’s a more rare coloration I found. It’s so pretty. Clam Mania has them from time to time, but I got this one from an excellent LFS. I’m not the best photographer but did my best with some close ups! I’ll check out that book for sure.

Let’s see your set up! 😊🪸

Thank you! Dosing 10ml/day of AFR. I’ve got 2 Derasa on the sand and 1 Crocea up top at 350 PAR 🥰 They’ve all been doing great so far. The cool thing about clams is they’ll tell you what they need (ex. no new growth, more calcium; reaching mantle, more PAR; receding tissue, water quality issue)

My amazing reefing buddy spent a whole week working on my tank with me. We’re looking great besides a little cyano 🥹🪸🐠

I think Mark Zuckerberg might be a kinda uncool dude…

Michelle Buteau on the advice she's glad she ignored On Wild Card this week, Michelle Buteau opens up advice she was smart to ignore and why getting married is the biggest risk she's ever taken.

It’s ok to judge people on their politics, for their political beliefs reflect their morality.

Thanks, I’m lucky enough to have a pair! They’re so sweet.
