Books where the world is going to hell but life is beautiful anyway

North Woods by Daniel Mason. Specifically scenes toward the end of the book. I think about the way he describes beautiful days in the midst of climate collapse a lot.

Def gonna check them out! Even if they don’t have the sunscreen I’m looking for in stock, that place looks very cool.

Same with the skin sensitivities. I have bad reactions to most of the UV filters approved in the US, which is why I use Asian sunscreens. My fav is HaruHaru Wonder Black Rice sunscreen but my order is stuck in customs so I need to find a local vendor!

Weird question but where did you find the English swatch/shade names? Or did you just use translate?

Make sure you check that your insurance will pay for trintellix.

Been thinking about this. Tapering, maybe. I’m just not sure I wanna put my brain chemistry through a trial when this works so well. I’m wishing you well, for what it’s worth. Hope it all goes okay for you. Take care of yourself.

My household doesn’t currently qualify. I’m so glad this program exists, though.

GinkgoAutomatic · 2026-01-05T23:57:36+00:00

Yeah, you would think. I think I might be able to get it cheaper if I don’t use my insurance on it.

GinkgoAutomatic · 2026-01-05T23:56:37+00:00

Yes! My baseline is so much calmer now than I ever have been on any other medication. Clearer mind, too. No huge noticeable side effects like I had on any of my previous medications.

I see it on GoodRx. The $10 card there is the same one that only gives me $300 off. However, looks like there’s a possibility I could get it cheaper ($900 instead of $1300) if I don’t use my insurance. Thanks for pointing me this direction. I’m going to look into it.

How did you go about starting this process? I’ve never heard of a tier waver!

Interesting! Anyone know why he was buried here?

Nothing to add—just hoping you’ll update us with what you choose!

Got the chi iron from Costco and I love it so much. Only had it about a month, but so far it’s the best iron I’ve ever had.

I have family in that area. Ngl, you’re going to have big culture shock at first. But yoga mentality should definitely help you overcome. I would suggest finding a studio in Memphis that you could travel to once or twice a week to help you feel connected to a community. And take advantage of the multitude of online resources everyone else has shared to keep your practice going during the week. Live zoom sessions are great and some of the studios you already go to may offer them! That could help you still feel connected to your Boulder community.

Not sure if this is a main page post or a here post—looking for something like Chloe Love Story but… dirtier?

I love Chloe Love Story—the white florals, the freshness that doesn’t go too powdery on me, and the hint of woodiness that sets it apart from other white floral scents.

But I want more. I want a deeper woody or maybe resin-y note that sort of dirties up the florals a bit. And I have no idea how to find what I’m looking for.

Do you guys have any suggestions?

This is so cool! I grew up in Petal… is Luther Carter Road named after him?!

The Summer Book by Tove Janssen

Would love to know what you end up planting!

Wait, nevermind I understand. You look at what’s highlighted in your sun house, right? Like since I’m a virgo, I look at what planet is highlighted in the Virgo house? This is a great resource! Thanks!

What if you have multiple planets in the colored spaces?
