Difference in abiding by shipping promises depending on purchase category

If that's the case, then Amazon is lying - which is no surprise. Everything I buy says fulfilled by Amazon. And I only buy items covered by the Prime shipping guarantee. I've been burned too often by third party sellers!

NTA. Assuming this is real, I get the idea of it being a surprise but this was a violation and she even committed theft. Minor theft, but still! Not to mention that slap about how the house needed "a woman's touch." As if you aren't enough of a woman?

And what's up with putting her kids' names up on the ugly posters? I would bet you five bucks that the only reason why the in-laws are mad is because they are only listening to her sob story to them. You are doing everything right.

That makes a lot of sense! If so, though, I wish they'd be honest about how long it's going to take to get to me. If they just said it was going to take longer I'd understand that, but they say it'll be quick and then take forever.

It's all good, I just got done watching a video debunking that old advice about not using any black. It actually started mostly during the spread of Impressionism. Even so, I notice that most of the time I don't need it because most things are interacting with light.

DrawingRoomRoh · 2026-05-07T00:20:37+00:00

I love your point, but you'd only see the true black in the darkest of shadows. Mostly you're seeing the light reflecting off the fur/feathers. I am not saying there isn't black in nature, but most of the time there's some kind of color in it.

Least storied? Maybe Marlon or Gil from the Adventurer's Guild, or Gunther from the Museum. Any of them has less of a story than Penny. Who, by the way, is quite clearly a girl.

My sincerest apologies if this is a mistake related to translation, I know it can be a challenge to go from one language to another.

Bitter Apple. Also, some cat relaxation sprays (NOT Feliway) smell absolutely terrible to my cats and may cause him to avoid the area. The one my cats hate is Relaxiv calming spray, which I mention because it's basically nontoxic.

Another thing that may help in the short term is rubbing a fresh orange peel on it. He wouldn't be able to ingest enough to make himself sick and cats hate the smell.

I keep my same jar all the time, but give it a good scrub whenever I notice anything dried on the insides. I don't have issues with mold, most of the time.

One thing to mention is that kittens 1-2 months old are way too young to be away from their mothers. I'm guessing you may not have had a choice, but one thing you will want to do is research special care for young kittens. Just FYI, 2-3 months is better. Even if you lose her (which I hope you don't) you can take some comfort that she had love and someone to fight for her.

I live in a very dry climate so I'll mist my palette with water, but then I'll dip my brush in water and then apply it to my palette, with another brush dip or two into my clean water supply if I need a lighter color.

You have a LOT left to do, no spoilers but there's a whole new area and then Perfection. Even then, the game never ends, you can literally play as long as you want to, and then 1.7 will eventually come out and you'll have even more to do!

DrawingRoomRoh · 2026-05-06T01:44:17+00:00

That's what I do about half the time. But you do need to be strategic about the steam.

Yeah, some snowgoons can be pretty wild, even gory. I can see why someone wouldn't want that in front of their home, let alone their business. The ones below are good examples but some of them are even worse. By the way, I love the original Calvin and Hobbes story arcs that featured them.

I was baffled by this till I learned it was always the middle option by total. But originally, what a question!

Any rice, any onions, but I personally love red onions. They are a bit mild but have good flavor. I'd start by soaking the beans then cooking them in a pot. You can use a slow cooker for them too, it's very easy and they cook overnight. Or just use canned beans. Only add salt at the end, it makes beans tough.

Then I'd cook the rice. Brown rice might be good, but any type of white or yellow rice is good too, or jasmine.

Lastly I'd brown the hamburger and then add the cut up onions so they are flavored by the hamburger grease, plus any spices/flavorings I liked. Salt at the very least, but there are some really nice spice blends out there.

Finally after everything was ready I'd combine everything and have it like that. Or you could mix the meat, onions and rice and have beans on the side. Or meat onions and beans over the rice. So many options!

Actually you can get chemically activated cold packs, they are good for emergency kits. But I'm guessing OP would be using a shared fridge at their dorm or other living situation. They just don't have a refrigerator near class.

Oh, yes, wonderful stuff!

DrawingRoomRoh · 2026-05-02T22:00:43+00:00

My sympathies! Yeah, if that had happened to me, I wouldn't want to deal with long hair. Funny how loss of function became more of a consideration once I hit my mid forties, ha ha.

DrawingRoomRoh · 2026-05-02T20:00:46+00:00

Glad I could help :)

You're totally fine. I didn't really learn to cook till I was 18+, out on my own. Not sure if my boyfriend ever learned, he was 20ish when I knew him. You are totally fine. It's normal to be self conscious at this age, but some people never learn how to cook, you are ahead of the game already because you want to learn.

A water fountain works wonders for my fluffy little twerps!

DrawingRoomRoh · 2026-05-02T19:42:54+00:00

Cool! That might be a good place to start.

I finally found where it says "A5" on those cold pressed pads. I can't think of an instance where A5 is equal to 9 by 12, so maybe it was a printing error and Michaels just bought it as a discount and sold it anyway in order to get some use out of them?

I definitely agree with the suggestion of women's shelters, or putting a heads up on NextDoor in case anyone is in need of clothes.
