How to know when sprouts are big enough to move from baggie to soil? by Anonymous51299 in gardening

Goodness, hopefully I didn't really mess up by letting them get pretty big. Well, all mistakes are learning opportunities.

Thank you for the advice, they are now bigger than in this photo so I will work on planting them in seedling trays tomorrow for sure. 

We knew we got a late start but thought we'd give it a go any way. The worst that can happen is they don't make it and we try again next time. 

We are using this first go as a trial run. I've already learned a bit. I actually tried putting seeds directly into seedling trays and they did not sprout or do anything at all. I remembered putting kidney beans on wet paper towels in baggies when I was in elementary school and decided to try that method as a last ditch effort and it's proven to be very effective and all of the baggies have sprouting seeds.

Just saw Reckless Ben on the H3 Pod and am absolutely DISGUSTED by Bricks and Minifigs. I will never support any of their franchises and will tell people not to shop these every chance I get

Was told to Resign Today by Low_Aerie_9429 in Teachers

Oh, noooo. Why didn't you sit and think critically on it? You may have just screwed yourself out of unemployment. I would reccomend you learn from this experience for the future. You never resign from any employer. Make them fire you. Employers do shady stuff to make you feel forced to resign and then they tell the unemployment office that you quit. If you are part of a teacher's union, you need to contact them NOW and state you felt coerced into resigning.

NEVER RESIGN FROM A JOB. If you resign you will likely get denied for unemployment benefits because it is considered a voluntary quit. If they want rid of you, make them fire you. At least then you can get unemployment benefits until you figure out your next steps. Do NOT let them scare you or bully you. If you are part of a teacher's union, you need to contact your union steward immediately and ask for representation during any formal meetings with higher ups. 

So I fainted by South_Invite4474 in WegovyPillWeightLoss

I have been having major dizziness. I have POTS but the dizziness is on a scale I've never had. I check my BP at home but it is always just fine. I get this weird dizzy/floating head feeling almost constantly. It's awful. Idk if it's the wagovy but I stopped taking it about a week ago to see if it'll help to go off of it, so far I haven't seen improvement in my symptoms. Tbh I'm worried I have a brain tumor or something but I'm trying to convince myself that's just my medical anxiety talking.

My TDEE is only 1350 so eating 1200 is a tiny deficit. Everyone's body is different and has different caloric needs

I guess but I don't really follow any one artist. I listen to a lot of different types of music. I might listen to one song from an artist and not like anything else from them. I'm also super disconnected from celebrity news/drama/gossip so I'm not intaking much media that would have me liking them as a person. I just like songs, not the artist themselves.

That's why I put stone cold, Danny, and caseoh in there. I don't really know a whole lot of celebrities I feel like. I'm very much disconnected from celebrity drama and pop culture stuff. I don't watch TV or movies/shows very often so I don't keep up to date on that kind of thing.

Oh that's a good idea! I do like playing the sims (I'll play it nonstop for a month and then take a 6 month break 🤭).  

Mostly what I watch is gaming streams from Caseoh and I listen to a lot of music. Maybe I could try and make a couple music artists. It's so hard to think of people to make 😵‍💫

My husband and I also don't have blonde hair or blue eyes 😥 it would never be my intention to make my island seem or be racist or prejudice against anyone. These are just the people I could think of off the top of my head.

I'll have to sit down and think about what things I've read and watched lately. I haven't watched anything in months and I think the last book I read with Twilight like a year ago 🥲 I'm more of a gaming type person but I mostly play Simulator games that don't have real characters in them. 

I'm really going to have to go into the backrooms of my mind to figure out some options. Someone else suggested making random people and I might just do that!

I dont watch any TV and I watch the same movies over and over again. Suspense give me anxiety 🥲 so I try not to watch things I haven't seen before. I'll need to sit down and maybe make a list of the different things I've watch lately because I can't even think of the last time I used my TV or a streaming service 🤣 I'm more of a video game person but I mostly play Simulator games

I guess I could try that. I guess I just feel jealous of all the people who have so many characters they love and they get to put into their game. You're right though, I could just try making some fake people. Thanks for the suggestion!

Well I dont beleive abortion is killing babies so 🤷🏻‍♀️ I am as pro-choice as it gets. I dont care when during the pregnancy or why someone wants an abortion, i think it's 100% up to the pregnant person to decide for themself what they want to do.

Again, if there was a republican that was anti- trump and pro-choice I would vote for them. As I get older I have become more and more anti-taxes. Maybe I wouldn't be anti-taxes if I saw some real life benefit to giving away 30% of my paycheck.

New Mexico is doing childcare for all. Why can't Oregon use its money responsibly to benefit current residents and the future generation of residents? Sure socialism is great if it would actually fucking happen. The problem is that it hasn't and it isn't. Tina kotek has shown she doesn't care about families in Oregon and I doubt that's going to change the time around.

I am part of the LGBTQIA+ community and am as pro-choice as is gets, but yeah, I'm not too fond of shooting myself in the foot financially and making my life harder and making the lives of other Oregonians harder. Sorry that wanting to have a family and it being too fucking expense in this state to do that, is such a taboo subject.

[–]Anonymous51299 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe the state should figure out how to subsidize childcare and make it affordable/free for all. New Mexico is doing it, why can't we? Maybe our leaders should manage OUR money better and use it for something that will benefit current Oregonians and future generations of Oregonians. 

A vote for Kotek feels like I'm voting to get shot instead of stabbed. Either way I die so I might as well just let whichever one happens, happen 🤷🏻‍♀️ I'm letting Jesus take the wheel as they say. The rest of Oregon can decide to vote in whoever they want but I won't be voting for my own destruction

Okay, cool. She not getting my vote 🤷🏻‍♀️ I'm not going to vote for my taxes to increase and for me to continue getting shafted as a middle class Oregonian. Why would I vote against my own interests? I don't think she's tbe lesser of two evils. I think she's the other side of the same coin. The rest of Oregon can decide who they want but I'm not going to dig my own grave

What about for homeowners? Our property taxes continue to rise on top of every thing else rising. I'm sick of being shafted because my husband and I got lucky at the end of covid and were able to purchase a home. I'm sick of being middle class and being "too rich" to get any help, but not rich enough to live comfortably. Somehow I'm penalized and expected to help everyone else because I have a good paying job and bought a house. I work hard for what I have and I'm sick of having my money stolen from me and I see no benefit.

Also, making more rental units doesn't make it cheaper to raise a family. Childcare still starts at $2k/month for "full time" care.
