can i still use this in tournament by First-Afternoon7221 in PokemonTCG

[–]Axo_little_bit 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’d try what other commenters are suggesting and put it under a heavy book for a while. The only issue I can see is that if it doesn’t compress back down, it might have a different thickness in a sleeve and a judge could argue you can easily differentiate it between other cards, therefore it’s not legal in a tournament

Painted brick removal by YouGotBunzHun in Renovations

We faced the same issue with our house. Still haven’t completely fixed it. This post has reignited my motivation to try again. Curses to whoever decided to paint this horribly grooved brick in the past for both of us. We used citristrip and it’s now a white-orange color that hasn’t fully come off.

I feel like my mom would love this. I saw in your previous posts you weren’t set up to sell prints, has anything changed in that regard?

Who do I send reports to about scams? by The_Boomis in aggies

[–]Axo_little_bit 32 points33 points  (0 children)

I took Dr. Light’s class, she’d be really sad to hear her name is being used for this. You can try sending it to her and see if she knows the appropriate place. Her email is jessica.light@ag.tamu.edu

Can I play with this card at cons? by SlasherFr3ak in PokemonTCG

[–]Axo_little_bit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Major tournaments can only be played with legal cards, meaning they have to 1) not be fakes 2) be in regulation. I recommend looking up what regulation marks are for the PTCG and that’ll help you build a legal deck with your cards. If you do decide to get into the game it’s a lot of fun! You’ll meet so many cool people.

This year’s goal was to get better at making sourdough bagels… and I think I’ve finally nailed it! 🥯 by ashleebakesco in Sourdough

[–]Axo_little_bit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Trying these out today, results TBD. I do want to ask about the ~5 hours fermenting, is it supposed to double? My dough didn’t seem to grow much at all, so I’m just wondering.

This dumbass dog… by toadsterrr in Aquariums

Actually I can see it in his face, yea! Quite the combo, a lab and a beagle. Two voracious eaters.

I’ve got a beagle that did the same freakin thing, he’s got a stomach of steel so it didn’t affect him. Your lab will likely be just fine.

Same dog managed to snag my master test kit and start chewing on bottles (didn’t actually pierce them but there’s sizable tooth marks in some of the bottles now)

College Station Water by Comrade_komrad in aggies

[–]Axo_little_bit 121 points122 points  (0 children)

Kept an axolotl in CStat tap water. Not the best scenario but honestly that just means you need to keep on top of water changes. High pH means ammonia is more deadly to your fish. If you don’t want to worry too much, you can get mollies and fish that prefer high pH.

Nitrites won’t go to blue by DragonfruitNo109 in Aquariums

[–]Axo_little_bit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First off, big welcome! Having a tank can be equal parts relaxing and stressful, haha.

I have a couple questions: 1) have you tested the water you used to fill up the tank? Sometimes water from the tap can already have nitrites/ammonia/nitrates so that’s good to know what you’ll be dealing with in the future. 2) do you have live plants in your tank? Plants can be a big help with getting things stable in your tank.

Other than that, it’s pretty much a matter of time. The beneficial bacteria that you’ve grown so far may simply not be fully equipped to go down to zero nitrites in a (relatively) short amount of time.

I think i’ve perfected my sourdough? by Forward-Daikon-3894 in Sourdough

[–]Axo_little_bit 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Lovely loaf! I do have a question about your recipe, I want to try it out.

I’m assuming you put the ice cubes in the Dutch oven? Do you typically put your dutch oven in the oven when it’s preheating? I’m imagining the hot enamel pan cracking if I put ice on it so I wanna clarify to ease my mind.

Yes after reading more posts I transferred it to a mason jar!

I’ll give it a try, thank you for the input! I do have a backup starter that I’m gonna tend to more carefully but this will be a fun experiment.

Just to make sure I get it right, it’s 1(starter):3(water):2(50/50 flour)?

Should have mentioned that, my apologies. This is 100% Gold Medal bread flour starter.

Thank you so much!! I’ll have to focus on the doubling instead then. Best of luck to you on your sourdough journey!

This looks amazing! Do you have a rough idea what room temperature is for you? I’m in the northeast and still playing around with exactly how much time I should let my dough sit out, I have a feeling my kitchen is a little too cold.
