This line is so enraging because it's fundamentally asserting that a woman's life is of no value on its own. Like, your life, YOU, as a human, are not worth anything by yourself. Really disgusting misogyny actually!

Especially when this kind of sentiment comes from women. It's so bleak. Like ma'am you are insulting yourself as well!

I think so. I'd be disappointed, and I'd worry about practicalities, but I've had a lot of circumstances that have caused me to think about my existence and my impermanence/mortality so I feel like I've had plenty of space to work through most of the feelings and questions around that. Everything dies, it's cool. I'm just grateful about getting to exist for a second.

Thanks. This is exactly the kind of tip i was looking for.

How much do you typically use?

[-] cloudforms@piefed.blahaj.zone 5 points 8 months ago

Ty!! Will try this.

Same! I have also had hard water at various times in my life but never had this problem. Stumped lol

Since moving I have started to get very large, stiff, slightly waxy or oily patches on the back of my t shirts after I wash them, exactly where my back leans against my chair. I think they're just sweat and soap and calcium buildup, but they're nearly impossible to get out completely. I've tried soaking in boiling water, soaking in vinegar, etc etc but nothing seems to quickly and completely get rid of them or prevent it from happening. They stay even after several washes or come back over time when I do manage to get rid of them. Normal cheap cotton-poly blend tees, being worn normally, washed on normal in HE washing machines with the recommended amount of liquid soap. Usually on warm or cold. I am hesitant to do hot very often because of the risk of damaging my clothes. This problem does not occur with my other clothes or my sheets, even when I sweat a lot. It's just specifically my T shirts for some reason?? Does anyone know a permanent solution to these kinds of stains?

Good to know. That is one of the most interesting looking trees i've seen in a while. I hope you post updates about it.

Those trees are wild looking. Hadn't heard of those before. I hope it blooms for you! Any idea whether or not they're toxic to pets?

[-] cloudforms@piefed.blahaj.zone 3 points 9 months ago

It looks like those (and unfortunately most of the common indoor fruits) are incompatible with pets. Appreciate the suggestion though

Running into mixed messages while reading about whether mulberries can be grown indoors or not. Does anyone know if they require their cold periods to live and function, or will they be healthy but simply not make fruit? I'd love to grow a berry bush or a similar sized ornamental shrub inside, but I do not have access to an outdoor space to give it chilling time. Has anyone done this before?

I have a pretty old book that has a hard cardboard sleeve that's really frayed at the corners, so that the bottom part of it is coming off a bit. What kind of glue would you use? I want to keep it from fraying again or damaging/having weird effects on the material over time.

Bandcamp! It lets you download a few different file types.

Not sure about comics and movies, though. I would also like to know the answer to that one.

I'm so sorry this is happening to you. Don't let him use alcohol as an excuse for pushing your boundaries. If this is how he's acting around your family at a holiday, how will he act when you're alone? Somebody worthy of you would never do this. You deserve someone who can drink without disrespecting your body and your birthday.

Regulation. People will always adapt, but imo this is firmly a policy and governance issue.
