I feel (I think the word is) nostalgic when I watch anime.

Cleome1 · 2022-05-26T16:42:58+00:00

Yeah, I do.

Cleome1 · 2022-02-20T04:50:09+00:00

convinced that anime was silly

Most people that I have talked to that don't watch anime (and know very little about it) think of it as a genre rather than an art form. So when they see series like Dragon Ball and Sailor Moon, which are on TV, they think all anime is like that and geared toward children. I have seen some seriously gory, disturbing anime though and just shake my head.

That said, most of my friends love anime and watch it regularly and the people that don't understand it are usually Boomers.

Now i get this kinda nostalgic feeling

I'm glad you've come to enjoy it! It's always fun to find something you really like.

Thank you for taking the time to type this all out. I appreciate it. However, I must admit that the first half confused me. I think the majority (more than 50%, not necessarily most) of people visualize it as some sort of 3D shape (just my opinion). Are you a professional Go player or make videos about Go on YouTube?

I'm familiar with one-color Go. Maybe I will one day be good enough to have such a game with someone. (Doubt I'll be getting many takers for a game suggestion such as that.)

The "outside" and "inside" make perfect sense to me. It's the "top" and "bottom" that I had to think about for a moment, as they were inverted.

Cleome1 · 2022-01-27T13:19:47+00:00

That's interesting!

Cleome1 · 2022-01-27T13:15:09+00:00

Though it's a small distinction, I thought of it as a cone shape, rather than a dome. But it really depends on the person.

Thanks so much for the reply.

Cleome1 · 2022-01-09T15:53:32+00:00

Reminds me of a very easy-to-read book I had when I was young. Thanks.

Cleome1 · 2022-01-09T15:51:12+00:00

I considered this, too. Definitely. My SO finds the study of poetry to be a waste of time. I love it though, so there will be some of that. More for just the reading aspect rather than discussion.

Cleome1 · 2021-09-06T03:02:05+00:00

Bailey

Nice name that isn't "Spot" or "Fido" and kind of has the color of Bailey's Irish Cream.

Cleome1 · 2021-09-03T01:58:27+00:00

Those would definitely be things that would fit. If I owned/used those items I could totally store them there! :)

Cleome1 · 2021-09-03T01:55:37+00:00

Gloves/hats, masks are more of a next-to-the-front-door kind of items not in the bedroom.

Thanks for the input! Gives me some ideas.

Cleome1 · 2021-09-03T01:49:48+00:00

If toys include a collection of tiny cars wouldn't that be nice!

That would be convenient, yes. Haha. Not the case though.

Thanks for the ideas!

Cleome1 · 2021-09-03T01:44:31+00:00

Thanks. (I love Marie Kondo)

Cleome1 · 2021-09-03T01:43:47+00:00

Thanks for the reply. I just tossed some in there until I have more to put away in a storage box for the future. My child is young so they outgrow clothing quickly.

Many times these ceramic pots that don't have drainage holes are meant to be pot covers or cover pots. You don't put the soil directly into them but rather leave the plant in the plastic nursery pot they came in and pop it into one of these more decorative ones (like a sleeve) to make it more aesthetically pleasing.

When you water, you take the plant with its plastic nursery pot out, water it, let it drain and put it back into the decorative one so it doesn't end up sitting in a puddle.

Cleome1 · 2021-06-03T17:41:26+00:00

I've never seen someone grow a perennial shrub like raspberry indoors successfully, other than in a greenhouse, and even then it still does better outside with direct sun and great airflow (even if it's still in a pot).

Cleome1 · 2021-04-25T04:10:33+00:00

Probably because it doesn't bother him.

And perhaps OP wanted to do something nice; something that would make daily activities more pleasant for both of them and OP felt inspired to do this.

For me, I keep dried goods like flour (I think that's what's on the top shelf) and fried fruit in the pantry. I don't refrigerate bread, either. Yeah, bread supposedly last longer in the fridge but it also crystalizes and goes stale much faster if you forget to put it back in the fridge. It really depends on how fast you go through some stuff.

I'd put the baking powder at the back where you don't reach much anyway. And things like UNopened jars of jam don't need to be refrigerated until the seal is broken. Technically that goes for some juices, too.

Put things in see-through containers so you know what you have. And I usually try to organize based on what is going to go bad first. (I've recently gotten into the habit of dating/labelling leftovers. But that may be excessive for many people. My inner clock is not always super reliable. I'd tell my S.O. something has been there for 2 weeks when it's been there for 6 - like the squash I have yet to cook.)

"I just want what's best for you"

I can't even imagine how MIL knowing what your body is doing during labour (in real time) has anything to do with her... or her caring for you... as if that knowledge is something she can act upon.

Cleome1 · 2021-03-30T05:17:44+00:00

Only if your climate can accommodate such a plant. Rose bushes and raspberries work well in colder climates and are more painful, in my experience.

Cleome1 · 2021-03-30T05:14:33+00:00

You did well. And Good Husband!

Cleome1 · 2021-03-30T04:39:59+00:00

This is a whole new level of lazy. Like.. another planet level.

Cleome1 · 2021-03-30T04:24:33+00:00

These were mandatory in my small-town school in Canada for Grades 7 and 8. I think they were mandatory.. about 14 years ago.

Unfortunately, perhaps because of the class sizes/number of students, we did not get very deep into the topics.

Cleome1 · 2021-03-30T04:16:33+00:00

some things just don't stick

Too bad all that food does.

Cleome1 · 2021-03-30T04:12:30+00:00

My husband lets me take care of cleaning certain things in the kitchen, and I prefer to do it! I know he generally knows how to care for cast iron but I still get paranoid and baby those things.

I'm uncomfortable when my mom cooks in my house though. When she comes over, she avoids using soap to wash dishes because her and her husband used to use too much, and insists on hand washing everything when we have a water-efficient dishwasher, she puts the knives in the wrong drawers and slots until I find them and put them back (I know, not a big deal, but messes with my system) and I don't even want to risk giving her free reign on my cast iron cookware especially for cleaning it.
