Is my frog bloated?- beginner

so I have two adfs and one has been looking like this for a few days, I feed him little pellets once a day around night, at first I thought it was just a little fat but I learned bloating was a thing and now I’m worried for him. i saw people saying they float when bloated, he doesnt do that he just normally stays at the bottom, when he goes up for air though sometimes hell stay up there for an extra few seconds. ive had him for about two months, kinda new to keeping them. Is there anything i can do to help if it is a bloat? He hasn’t changed much otherwise than the weight, I’m just kinda worried And want to make sure I’m doing everything I can to keep them healthy, overthinking is making it worse :’) Thanks

Anyone know why my filter looks like this? -kinda beginner

Always had fish since I was a kid but obviously my mom took care of them since I was too young to really help. I’m an older teenager now and I’ve took on the hobby, have some live plants now and a few fish n two African dwarf frogs. i try to listen to all the advice I find but it can be difficult to keep up. I cleaned my tank about Two weeks ago, and for some reason my filter keeps clogging with this nasty stuff. I have no idea what it is, the tank looks just fine, but the filter keeps clogging. I changed it once but I read you shouldn’t keep changing it, so I haven’t touched it. I feel like I should but I’m really not sure. Can anyone give me some advice on this? I’m really confused and just want to do what’s best for my animals :’) do I change it? Leave it? Clean the tank again? thanks

When’s the best time to ask for a movie poster?

Hi!! So I’m pretty familar with how some theaters give out posters, I have a twenty one pilots more than we ever imagined one I got in February. employee, who gave it to me was really nice, got it in the middle of the week it was being shown. i am a huge spiderman fan and have been for years, i just saw brand new day and it really resonated with me and would love a poster for it. They have two at my local theater. I really want one like desperately and know employees usually have first dibs. So the chances are superrr slim. I wanted to ask today but it was pretty early in the showing so I didn’t, line was long and didn’t wanna be a hassle for them. is there any “best” time to ask for the poster? Should I email them if that’s possible? Show up closer to the end of the showings or just go over on a day/time they won’t show it and ask? trying to figure out how to do it so it’s not annoying and very early but so my chances are high! Thanks :D

Misophonia is ruining my relationships

ive had misophonia for a really long time, I never always knew the word for it but I have always been bothered by certain sounds to the point of extreme discomfort. however the older I get the worse it gets. I’m an older teenage, my dad isn’t a great guy so things with him are hard. It’s almost like just him as a person triggers me. His eating, his tapping. His singing especially, I can’t be around him singing because it literally makes me psychically cringe so hard I feel so upset and weird. I know it’s not the persons fault, I’ve tried earbuds but my family doesn’t like me wearing them a lot. So I tried leaving rooms politely. But that is beginning to make things worse.

my mother accused me of being rude for leaving because my dad was “just kidding” with me while jokingly singing a song, I didn’t rudely leave just smiled and waved and walked off. I explained it wasn’t my intention, and I just can’t stand it, it’s not his fault, I just can’t bear it but she told me she basically doesn’t care and I have to be nice to him. I’ve been struggling for weeks to the point of tears by forcing myself to stay in these rooms. The chewing, the loudness, the singing and tapping, him scraping his plate. its like his whole existence triggers me but I am never rude about it, even tho after all he has done to me, I probably shouldn’t be as kind as I am to him.

it pains me so bad, no one will ever understand how bad these sounds upset me, they just think I’m rude even though I always say sorry and make sure they know it’s not their fault. My mother is distancing herself and my dad is rude because he has this idea now I hate him. So I’m stuck in these conditions where I’m basically forced in a room with those disgusting sounds. I wish I knew what to do, i feel like everyone just thinks I’m crazy. Has this ever happened to anyone? It affecting your family situation? Any tips to help distract myself from the horrible noises? Thank u :’)

Homeschool is ruining my life and I don’t have much schooling left. Help

I’m 16 and I’ve been doing virtual school for all of my life. Most consider virtual school home school and for me it mainly is my mom teaching me, so I just decided to post here. As long as i remember, I’ve begged to go to real school. When I was about seven, my mom tried to get me n my siblings into one, my brothers got in but I didn’t, (acceptance was luck based, not sure why) and for whatever reason after that she stopped trying. Next year in august is my senior year. And I can’t help but feel so angry. I have never been to prom, I have two friends I see about once a year, and I am so alone. I still dream of going to a real school, but no matter what I do my parents don’t listen.

i told them it depresses me, I am alone, I am not as smart as I should be, yet they do not seem to care. Once I even broke down crying just begging for them to put me in school but they refused. They claim the closest school is not safe even though after heavy research from around the area most people tell me it isn’t bad at all. I just want at least one year, if I don’t get atleast one I know I will feel so much more depressed and pissed at my parents. I don’t know what else to do, I feel like the only way to make my mother let me go is lying and saying it makes me want to do bad things to myself. Which I know isn’t a good thing, but unfortunately, I know that’s one of the few ways she may listen. I am stuck, do I still have a chance to do atleast one of my two last years in real school? Should I try one more time or do I grieve the fact I likely will never go? I feel so alone because my friends like this godawful crap. Any advice? Thank u.

How long do I wait for a buyer to message me back?

Hi! So about two days ago somebody bought a shirt I had listed, it was my first sell on Depop and I went to ship it out this morning but I noticed as I was going to package it that it had two very tiny almost microscopic holes at the bottom, as in you can’t even see them in the listed picture because They are THAT small. they are barely visible but because the Buyer likely didn’t know, cause, hell I didn’t, I messaged them asking if they would still like the item. It’s been pretty much all day and they haven’t replied and the post office closes shortly. Do I send it out still, do I wait? I’m not super sure on what to do Since it’s the first item I’ve ever sold. Anyone have tips on what to do? I feel like waiting is a good idea but it’s already packaged and Im not sure I’d have time to get it out tomorrow, so they’d have to wait a bit longer.

New seller- how should I go about shipping ?

Hi everyone! So I realized I have a lot of unwanted clothing after organizing a bit, and have donated some but would like to sell stuff too. I have my depop basically set up, but shipping has me a bit confused and I don’t know where to start. 🥲 I’m unsure of how to price shipping, and how it works as to setting it up, it just seems very vague to me at when it’s mentioned at the bottom of listings. Any tips and what would be the best options would be so appreciated!! Thank you 🫶

Getting annoyed when friends like my special interests, help!!

Hi, so yeah as the title says I am really struggling w this topic. I have quite a few special interests, and I always feel like they are a part of me. Something really important. But with this one person in specific, I hate when they start liking one of them. It might be because we like almost all the same stuff, when we have hobbies he always does what I do better it feels like. I am really into this one movie and book right now and have been, it’s been very obvious I really love it. I tried to mention it to him but he never really reacted to it. But just recently he got into it too and started telling me it “changed his life” and I can’t help but feel so.. annoyed?

i feel so so beyond guilty feeling this way, and maybe it’s because of our past but my heart just hurt when he told me that. I don’t have a issue when other people online like it it’s just him. I don’t know why it bothers me and upsets me so bad, it just does. I guess it could be it just feels like the only interest I have left to myself he doesn’t like, or at least hadnt before. I feel really bad about this as I said, I know I don’t own the series, so I don’t know why I almost wanna keep it from him but I feel so bad and nothing I do to try and stop this feeling helps. can anyone else possibly relate or have tips to stop this? It’s so exhausting.

I’ll keep it short but I’ve been dating this guy a year, we’ve had our ups and downs but usually it used to be ups. We haven’t had a long conversation since February. There was times he wouldn’t reply for two weeks n then suddenly pop back up again. This time it’s been three weeks, I know it’s embarassing and I should be ashamed for letting him ghost me like that, and me reply anyways because I just believed he was THAT busy all the time, not busy enough for his friends but too busy for me.

I‘m honestly tired, i want to reach out, ask why, ask if it was something I said, what I did, break up with him, but is it even worth it at this point? do i just block him and never reply? I feel rude doing so, considering if I’m being honest I do still love him, but I know It’ll never work, not like this. I tried to talk to him about it n he just says he cares about me n moves on. I’m stuck on what to do, some friends say block, some say break up, I’m not really sure anymore whats considered worth it and what isn’t. if anyone had advice that Would be awesome, thanks.
