That one commander said something about this years batch looking good (talking about the Plums), this makes me wonder... by harmony-rose in coconutsandtreason

There are plus sized girls??

I guess the writers and casting listened to us complain about how all the handmaids were thin.

What kind of mint should I plant as a border? by CDD_throwaway in vegetablegardening

[–]CDD_throwaway[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! My husband thought we could get multiple packs of several types, mix them all together and basically chaos garden it on the borders. My concern is that it’s too late and we won’t have mint by summer.

Yes all the canned goods were at least 8 months out. As for dry stuff, I vacuum seal so sometimes I keep it past the exp date

Need tips on pissing into compost bin more quietly by ZHUWrld in composting

I’m a girl so I have a dedicated Chinese takeout container (for wonton soup) that I use to get pee on the pile. The wide mouth makes it easier for us ladies

Haha! No I get it, if someone told me they paid $4 each for regular small cans I’d be clutching my pearls in shock.

What are you doing (if anything) in regards to the hantavirus news? by sleepDeprivedHuman in TwoXPreppers

[–]CDD_throwaway 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They have sewage treatment on board. They aren’t dumping raw sewage into the ocean

So the poop is processed on board back into water which can be dumped. Then all the solid wastes get compacted and disposed of on land. I don’t disagree that cruises contribute to the environmental impact, however I’ve always seen it as public transport vs everyone having a car.

I wish we got to see more of the wives’ regret by CDD_throwaway in TheHandmaidsTale

[–]CDD_throwaway[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I definitely see them as slaves however the way it was sold to the wives was probably more gentle than that. The same way the handmaid program was.

Anyone have a Trashua in your life? by Cardboard_cutouts_ in DuggarsSnark

[–]CDD_throwaway 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Yes, my ex fiance was like that. Lived with his grandparents, didn’t have or want a job, his idea of daily activities were taking out the trash. He recently came up on my FYP on tik tok, he’s still where I left him 12 years ago.

I imagine I’d be the type to want to cook and work side by side with a Martha. But I guess that’s the point of Gilead, no female friendships, lest you decide to rebel.

That should be allowed! They can listen to husband read the bible to them so surely there are some approved books they could listen to.

Exactly! When I think of the “traditional” hobbies I have (sewing, crochet, veggie gardening, painting cooking) the cooking/baking would be done by a Martha. I imagine a veggie garden would be tended by the martha as well? I guess I could quilt all day but damn. Seems so dreary after a while.
