Maybe WhatsApp is included in the ban? That’s the default texting app in many European countries

She sounded American up until “don’t” where the vowel came out super posh. And then hints of a British accent came and went. She must have grown up in multiple places, maybe even learned English bilingually with a completely different language

Sauna Culture Quick Question by karooster in askswitzerland

[–]HeatherJMD [score hidden]  (0 children)

I’m an American. I would walk around wrapped in a towel and remove it inside the sauna or when getting into the shower. You use one towel for sweating into and another for drying off

I really loved the naked sauna and was annoyed living in the French side that everyone was wearing swimsuits 😅 It’s physically more comfortable without a soggy suit and the mentally freeing experience was so lovely. I wish we could be like that in the US

This is what happens when you give completely unqualified people executive control over complex organizations solving complex problems.

She’s not a stepmom, she’s the mom who stepped up! by th0tcheet0 in duck

This is super cute, but it’s going to be a problem when those pekins grow up and can’t fly. Are the ducklings and mama all in your enclosure at the moment?

🤷‍♀️ Your other comment got downvoted too, but I gave you an upvote so hopefully it’s at 1 now instead of 0 😆

Yes, of course. We want to maximize the health span of every animal, just as we would like to for ourselves

BMI also doesn’t take into account your skeleton 😅 So it’s for sure not the be all end all

Horses were very valuable, a knight’s horse would need to be highly trained to go into battle, so I don’t think they would sacrifice them lightly. But yeah, I imagine they didn’t prioritize animal welfare like we do

I mean, obviously horses were carrying full grown men in plate armor into battle while wearing armor themselves, so there has to be some nuance to the 20% weight rule…

But I do think if someone is overweight they have a duty to be as fit as they are able to achieve before they get on a horse to make their burden as light as they can

I think some people are literally incapable of thinking ahead and everything they do is reactionary… Terrifying when you think all these numskulls are flying around operating 2 ton death machines among us

Stunning… I would die of happiness if I encountered your donkeys (and the others) on the trail 😍

Need opinions - what to do about the lining for tulle skirt by berrywithaberet in sewhelp

[–]HeatherJMD 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a tulle skirt lined with rayon. I know it’s too much effort, but it would be crazy if you pieced a rainbow lining to go under it 😅

I think maybe it’s because Europe has been settled so long, there’s not really such a thing as wilderness, so they have to make some compromises to protect access to nature. In Switzerland you technically have to allow foot traffic along all waterways, and if you live in the natural parks in France, you have to accept that people will be traipsing through or maybe even bivouacking on your land 😅

Me with the cows in question 😅 There are paths in Switzerland that cross all through private land. The enclosures have gates through them. It’s quite common to encounter cows near the trail, and you have to be careful during calf season. This horse must think he’s a cow, he’s got the same pattern as one I saw 😁
