hello everyone! i am an italian university student majoring in zoology, with a specific interest in arthropods. i've only ever kept insects, specifically beetles. i've always wanted to own giant millipedes, as i find them incredibly adorable, and i would like having an arthropod that has a longer lifespan (i've only ever kept cetonids, which as you probably know have very long larvae and pupation stages, so you never really get to "enjoy them" and their company). i want to be as prepared as possible, as i wouldn't take responsibility of owning animal that i didn't know everything about (in terms of caring for them).

so, please, inform me on anything you can! for example, what specie should i look into? any care tips? thank you so much guys!

EDIT: also, any information about soil, feeding etc etc...

Hello, i am 19. Italian. I am autistic. I am attending a university course which involves studying for an inorganic chemistry exam. My professor is a piece of shit, and keeps humiliating me for my "ignorance" whenever i ask questions. Anyway, i genuinely cannot comprehend chemistry, since i can't visualize it. I cannot see myself ever liking it, which is weird because i am a huge science fan (i love microbiology, math, physics...). How do i get over it? To me, this just seems like a bunch of memorization, definitions and boredom. Please, someone who loves chemistry, help me. How can i wrap my head around this seemingly incomprehensible nonsense.

hello! i'm a student trying to study. so far i understand that protozoans were once a subkingdom of Protista, but now they have been "split up" into the 2 kingdoms of Chromista (plant-like) and Protozoa (animal/fungi-like). i understand everything about these guys is a MESS, and opinions about them change everyday, but i would like some MENTAL ORDER!!! i don't even need to know this stuff for my exam, but it's really bothering me that i don't understand! what the hell are supergroups??
