I recently learned about beetle wings from Thai jewel beetles malaengthap (แมลงทับ) being used for making jewelry, sculptures, and clothing. Does anyone know about how these are acquired? The couple things I've read say they're ethically sourced by selling the wings for arts/crafting and consuming the actual beetles. But how is the beetle meat separated from the wings without damaging them? Specifically I was wondering if there is a particular utensil used, kind of like a melon baller?

I'm wondering what other people's experiences were like.

I called a number of psychiatrists who specialized in ASD when I started to have questions, but none of them were focused on adult diagnosis or therapy. The first psychologist I saw didn't think she was qualified to make a diagnosis in adults, and referred me to another who I had to pay out of pocket because he didn't accept my insurance. It left a bad taste for me because it felt like there is a scarcity of resources available for adults.

I'm just wondering what the title asks: do you organize your groceries in the order you will check them out, if doing self-checkout, or arrange them on the belt/counter in a standard checkout line, in the hope that they'll be bagged in a specific way?

I didn't know there was any other way people do it, but just learned some people prefer to checkout/bag without pre-arranging things. I'm kind of curious to see what's more common, or if there's some other options I haven't considered?
