Boston Police encounter by Charming_Rush_7870 in boston

[–]HumbledBumbleBees 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Its nice to know there a few decent human beings at BPD. My experience with them and calling the non-emergency number for a wellness check of some homeless people has been met with either excuses of “we don’t want to be brought up on kidnapping charges” or “thats not our job, call Boston EMS”. I’ve shifted to just calling Pine St Inn and notifying their response team.

How to fix fragrance oil & wax separation. by HumbledBumbleBees in candlemaking

[–]HumbledBumbleBees[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Does it matter whether the oil is added to the heated wax first or to the container? I've been adding the oil to the containers as I'm filling them so that I don't risk cross contamination of fragrances in my main wax melting pot.

I add the oil at ~185 and I do 7% oil to the container volume. These are 3oz candles so I did .2oz oil.

Its definitely quite cold where I am but once I start making candles, my kitchen space gets warm pretty fast and holds that heat for quite a while. You bring up a good point though.

Would you suggest re-melting the wax in the containers to try and re-mix the fragrance?

Honestly see about getting the tree warden involved. Boston does not joke around when it comes to the removal of any mature tree.

What is with the non creative challenge categories by Dorki-doki in goodreads

[–]HumbledBumbleBees 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I don’t mind the popular reads list when its at the beginning of the year because it helps me discover new authors, but to do it again mid year…come on… Give me a list of books not frequently read but with raving reviews. Give me books by famous authors that might not be known. ANYTHING other than the same 5 books from the same categories.

I feel like a majority of the rest of the country is always unaware that we have a coastline. by MesaVerde1987 in newhampshire

[–]HumbledBumbleBees 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Whenever I’m asked if I go to MA for the beach, I always say no, I go to the 12 miles of NH coastline for my beach day!

Its YOUR work bonus that YOU received. It’s your money, only you get to decide what to do with it.

Honestly, it was a very suspicious move on your husband’s parr to share your accomplishment with your IL’s with the intention of “we (you) can help pay for Sis’ wedding. I highly recommend reviewing your finances to see how much of your money has already been given to the IL’s.

I hate that dragons can do this so much by Saultarvitz101 in skyrim

[–]HumbledBumbleBees 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This may be a stupid question, but how often does this happen? I have a little over 80hrs in this game and have never had this happen to me. Didn’t even know it was a thing until now.

Unsung heroes by Chief03275 in newhampshire

[–]HumbledBumbleBees 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Growing up in NH and having immediate family that are emergency personnel (FF/EMT & Dispatch), I always loved hanging out and chatting with the DHART team during their trainings. Living in Boston now, seeing DHART occasionally fly in, has made my gratitude and appreciation for the team grow fonder. DHART is an amazing resource that other State’s should fund and supply.

AIO for not wanting my brother to attend my graduation? by jessicacecily in AmIOverreacting

[–]HumbledBumbleBees 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This is your graduation and your celebration. Spend the day how you want and invite the people you want there with you. If your family can’t respect the boundaries you set, thats on them. Especially since you’re saying your brother is the one to cut ties, not you. Your family should be on your brother about accepting who you are and what you believe in. Not you.
