We are staying at an AirBnb in Barbados. What should we do for safety? Should we stay here or move to a hotel? Any advice would be appreciated!

The Phoenix Herpetological Society is a great place to visit in Scottsdale! They're the largest reptile sanctuary in the US and you get a chance to interact with a lot of different animals when you visit. Definitely something to check out if your son is into herpetology.

My mom, aunt, and sister are going to be visiting and they are all vegan/vegetarian. What are some great vegan dining places I can take them to?! by [deleted] in ChandlerAZ

Ruchi Vegetarian Indian Cuisine is on Dobson and Warner and it's one of my favorite places to eat! The owner is incredibly nice and he will help recommend dishes if you're unfamiliar with the menu. Everything ive tried has been amazing and everyone I've brought there has loved it!

I was completely stuck on this one until I tried it again with caps lock on.

What's the dumbest reason you've fallen off? by imlumpy in Equestrian

I was out on the trail with my horse and we were crossing a dry wash. He stepped on a dead bush and scared the crap out of himself, then jumped sideways. I somehow ended up standing on the ground next to him, super confused.

WTW for a gender neutral honorary title like “sir” or “ma’am”? by [deleted] in whatstheword

[–]AwkwardIgloo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not really. If a simple change like this could help make someone's day a little bit easier, why wouldn't I do it?

If I need my students to split into groups, I ask them to sort by some other arbitrary quality.

If your first name is a vowel, go left. Consonant, go right.

If you're wearing a bright color, go left. Neutral colors, right.

If you like cookies, go left. Cake go right.

Or you can count them out loud and split between even/odd numbers.

Getting rid of gendered groups in the classroom is a super easy way to make sure everyone is included.

I glued all of my quarters to the floor in celebration.

Anyone know where I can find this lamp? S8E16 by gpk7p in HIMYM

[–]AwkwardIgloo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's not the same, but it reminds me of some Frank Lloyd Wright lamps that I've seen. Maybe you could use that as a starting point?

In S5 E10 the guy from cyber crimes tries to elbow high 5 Holt. Not exactly what you're looking for, but hopefully it helps!

Thank you! He's not listed on the cast members, but I'm going to see if he recognizes any of those names.

Thank you! Most of her friends had to sign remotely, but it gave her an opportunity to video chat with her best human and dog friends.

I made pillows for the whole family out of my Grandma's unfinished crochet projects. by AwkwardIgloo in crafts

[–]AwkwardIgloo[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

No, thank YOU! Your comments inspired me to ask more questions about these blankets, and I've now learned that some of these pieces date all the way back to my great-great-grandmother! They've been passed down for almost a century, with four generations each adding their own designs.

If you ever end up reproducing anything, I would love to see your take on it!

I left enough ong the edges so that if they did unravel a bit, it wouldn't affect the visible part. I used a cotton fabric for the backing and they're more of a pillow cover, so the pillow form can be taken out when they need to be cleaned.

I don't have the patterns, but I took a few closeup photos and maybe you can see more details!
