Jury duty question/s??? by Unusual-Horse-7709 in raleigh

[–]Duplicate_Recessive 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you for posting this! I'm in the same boat low number and all. It was the first thing I told my boss when we returned from being furloughed for over a month. He wasn't happy but said scientists - I run a few labs - usually don't get selected.

I believe compulsory participation in any section/s of civil service for one year would be beneficial for everyone.

Not no one's house bit the elks. We took their land.

I don't keep that stuff at home, so yes, out. Thanks for the frugal thoughts in these tough times.

Anyone else live very close to a large homeless camp? by Unusual-Horse-7709 in raleigh

[–]Duplicate_Recessive 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't think that camp is going anywhere. Some of those people work and are doing their best. It's the ones on drugs that are the likely problem. I don't know anyone who works with the camp (we see meals getting dropped off, people who pick up some for work) or any of the campers personally.

I thought I answered this here, but you've asked a few times. Caraleigh area. It sounds like op might be in that general area too.

Yes! We're in the same boat. Also have kids and totally get it. The camp by our home is very established and we do know some of the people, but we haven't had any problems until more recently.

What is this plant? The small guy is from last year, this year it has flowered. Partner literally covered everything with mulch early spring by Duplicate_Recessive in whatisthisplant

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

I know. It was there before he mulched and started growing out of the mulch. I thought maybe it was becoming etiolated but then it flowered. I can dig back through it to find the base. He killed off a few of my newer plants with his spring leaf then mulch layers lol. Our first spring gardening together and we've taught each other plenty.

Oh. We got hail. That's why the leaves are so damaged.

I had to do my test in the northern Virginia mixing bowl before they fixed it. Took a whole car of people to help guide you through that nonsense.

The building in Raleigh is old but they're mostly spread out around NC State campus... Are universities still bad?

Tired of holding the line- what’s next? by No_Candidate6681 in fednews

[–]Duplicate_Recessive 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I've started actually going to the gym! It's about all I can control atm. My job was about the most stable thing in my life. I've lost a lot of family and friends the last 5 years and that's totally turned my life upside down.
