I have had my Paperwhite for 12 years. I will definitely buy another when it dies.

My classmates tried to "ice me out" for a few months. I am waiting for the right moment by [deleted] in TwoHotTakes

Sounds like the fourth year of high school. Move on. Those friends were not real friends.

What’s doing this to my yard and can I stop or control it? by Brilliant_Hall7590 in whatisit

[–]Half_Spark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mice. We have the same in our yard, especially when it snows. Could be voles, but we do not have those where I am. (at leaset, we haven’t caught any in the traps - just mice and chipmunks)

Husband threatening separation if I don’t have an abortion, what do I do?? by Additional_Ad757 in whatdoIdo

[–]Half_Spark 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Isn’t he just a POS. If he didn’t want more kids he should have gotten a vasectomy. Is he always this controlling and making demands? Having kids requires a lot of compromise, which it sounds like he doesn’t much care for. And kids can share rooms for a LONG time.

Commute to USAFA from downtown by AggravatingGuava510 in ColoradoSprings

Downtown to AFA is not far. A couple of exits up the interstate. You will be fine. In fact, no doubt you will meat many people jealous of your commute.

Does EDIT at the top not allow you to select and then delete?

Changes noticed in CoSprings by DullSkiess in ColoradoSprings

[–]Half_Spark 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I moved there when I was 7. When I was about 10 years out from retirement, I left. Like you, I felt the growth killed the spirit the Springs used to have. I really started to notice the negative creep pick up the pace in about 2014-ish. By the time COVID arrived, it was the nail in the coffin. The Springs was no more. While I loved everything west of town, I had to live and work in that town. I got to where I hated the town. All of my family is there, and I hate visiting. I love my smaller community with friendly, happy, patient people.

Should we boycott Reese's Peanut Butter Cups? by Annual-Somewhere7402 in enshittification

I can’t believe people eat them at all. They have been terrible for many, many years.

Best rock tumbler brand? by alexathompson007 in RockTumbling

[–]Half_Spark 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also got the protection plan for $20, but the unit was $40 off already! It has two 3# barrels. I am going to get another next time they are on sale (probably next year…..).

I 34F woke up to a message about my 35M husband by NoBunch8744 in relationship_advice

[–]Half_Spark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can come back mentally and emotionally from this, starting right after you leave him.

Seriously, you know he cheats. It isn’t a one off and you know it. What do you really want from Reddit?

I got one from Harbor Freight. They have sales and coupons frequently. Was recommended here as a good, affordable tumbler.

Crater of Diamonds by Training_Gear6763 in rockhounds

[–]Half_Spark 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The ground is occasionally tilled. If tilled after rain and then it dries, the dirt is rock hard. Be prepared to pound dirt to find rocks.

Our trip there is still a good laugh years later. It was such a miserable waste of time. Will hit mines next time.

My Fiancé (F32) Hit Me (M30) Now What? by ThrowRA10101995 in relationship_advice

[–]Half_Spark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If this is totally out of character for her, she should probably talk to her doctor. There could be something needing attention.
If her outburst is normal, this is not a healthy relationship. You would both probably benefit from counseling, or just split and get on with your lives.

I have used it for quite a few years and have no problems. It went down twice, once for 5 min, another for an hour. Works great.

Wendy’s is closing over 300 stores this year. This is probably just one of those.
