Butterflies can remember things from their time as a caterpillar.

These memories are retained after going through metamorphosis, the breakdown of their caterpillar form into a cellular soup (or partial soup).

‘What is my hobby ?’

This is my 3rd phone, since solving them the first time, so I just went through and got the ones I remember.

I’m glad the other 5 of 6 are solvable. Thanks for confirming that.

Looks like ‘Name me the skin’ is the hardest one of all.

I’m pretty sure you will get the other 2 in a couple of days.

The ‘skin’ question… ~5-10 years ? (c:

I’d say, your 4 are in this 6:

Name your heroine after me.

Name me the skin

Without this common currency

Without you I am incomplete 1

Without you I am incomplete 2

• PS, I am not looking for any answers here at all. (Spoiler-tags do not work in several clients)

I’m fine solving these 15yrs later or not at all. The unsolved ones are good for campfires, or travelling through other countries.

Seen with my own eyeballs?

But I’m pretty sure they post to Mastadon and it is visible here on Lemmy. Or maybe they have accounts on Lemmy.

Many years back, at a caravan park games-room they had ping-pong, pinballs, pool, and a cocktail table Space Invaders.

I had little money for the videogames and pinball.

Some older kids had figured out that going to Space Invaders and flicking the wall power switch off, for a tenth of a second, would sometimes give an odd-number of free credits.

We played 7, 21, and then maxed out the registers at 99 credits.

Everyone played in rotation all day and turned it off with about 20 left.

Ja, das ist gut.

Chisel-toe tines are all the rage, this season!

Breaking traction when driving through a puddle.

I assumed they are super heavy and would stick to the ground, nope.

The tyres are essentially treadless drift-tyres, and any water on a polished concrete surface will allow some sliding.

This was without load and no crash ensued, just a momentary boost in adrenaline as 1.5 tons is moving a different direction as expected.

Eternity app does not seem to handle the spoiler tags too.

Devinettes app has about 3 or 4 riddles that I haven’t been able to crack in 8 years.

It gives no answers or hints, just reports ‘correct’ if you type the right answer in.

The same car mod term in the 50s was ‘hotrodding’.

• The language is from a different era and takes a few pages to get into.

The two mirrors(2m x 1.5m) installed in the exposed brick, narrow, central room of the house, make such a massive difference to the amount of light available from the skylight, and give a feeling of extra roominess.

One mirror was down for the day during an AC install, and the feeling in the space was noticeably more closed-in.

The ideal would be to use the kitchen-garden time as an example for other lesson concepts. eg.

Area of the garden plots, students measure the length x width, etc.

Volume, measure the amount of water used in a week to maintain the garden.

Vocabulary and spelling of associated horticultural words.

The animal preparation in high-school would be a one off excursion experience, rather than having pens in the school for daily maintenance.

6 hour baths.

Phone in zip-lock bag.

Bottle of red water.

Add more hot water when it cools.

Once or twice a year self-care.
