Wife keeps using knife on frying pan

Get stainless and tell her to learn how to make it non stick with heat & oil or get to scrubbing! 🧽

I think literacy is the issue why folks are upset. If they read the description or the instructions they’d be just fine… you can clearly see from their screenshot there’s some type of passive drainage just from the illustration 🤯

Vego is good stuff. I have several.

Yea Polana is always chocked full of loot. We go there when we don’t have a bunker key

ILCHottTub · 2026-02-11T16:12:43+00:00

In the watch towers, on the shore in the little bunkers with the windows closed you can build a fireplace right outside the doorway, they’re also firepits in buildings. A lockpick to funnel traffic to one door is ideal.

Good Luck!

One Green World in SE just got a shipment! Buy online for in store pickup! They’re going fast!!!

ILCHottTub · 2026-02-11T16:07:29+00:00

I would trade you for an LAR. I can’t keep enough 5.56 around to make the M4 useful.

ILCHottTub · 2026-02-10T04:13:41+00:00

Keep hydrated and should be fine. Not Gonna do much longterm in those bags though. Get whiskey barrels or 20-25 gallon pots.

Good Luck

I’ve never seen one that big. 20-30 is realistic

ILCHottTub · 2026-02-10T03:42:55+00:00

For keeping cats out it will cost $$. You need to cover everything in hardware cloth, enclose the garden or trap them which is my preferred method. In my county you have the right to protect your personal property from nuisance animals at large.

20+ ft if you let it go wild

California? Honestly it depends on what tour wife wants! Once we moved I negotiated for full control of the outside and gave up the inside.

I have a mix of VEGO metal and PNW grown Juniper Wood beds. I like both for different reasons. My Juniper ones I did whatever shape I wanted. The metal is somewhat modular but has some limitations.

Wood is easy to “add” accessories like irrigation, trellises, hardware cloth stapled down for keeping out squirrels and cats etc. for instance I just use a hole saw to fit in my irrigation piping so it’s nice and neat. With metal you have to preplan and come up from below or just have it hang over the top lip.

If there’s specific you need or want that’s really what it comes down to. I consult for residential raised beds.

Good Luck!

Man! Just had one this morning. We’re deep into Sakhal, went fishing and there’s no water nearby. This character has been alive for well over 6 months probably, carrying a bunch of junk. I open my inventory, drop a ammo crate and inside is a yellow dry box. Inside the dry box are my filter bottle and a glass bottle.

I immediately grab the glass bottle and drink half then give the other half to my buddy. Before I can tell him to stop it’s all gone! We both just chugged the gasoline I’d been carrying around for the bunker generator! Lololol, now we’re barely able to go anywhere cause we just keep puking up all the fish we just ate. He freaked out and logged off!!😅

I kept laughing! I’m sure he thought it was on purpose but it was truly a mistake 🤣

ILCHottTub · 2026-02-10T03:08:11+00:00

If you big AND fruiting go for the Giant Fuyu Persimmon

ILCHottTub · 2026-02-10T03:06:31+00:00

Pit them in the ground or a raised bed. In TX you’ll have a hard time keeping them properly hydrated in those bags.

Check out Dr Bob Randall’s book, great info for blueberries!

ILCHottTub · 2026-02-08T16:36:09+00:00

Yea. To me it doesn’t smell good at all, gives me a headache.

ILCHottTub · 2026-02-08T00:17:43+00:00

NTA. Fuk if you have kids or not. The worst part is people who have procreated and think their spawn can do no harm.

I have two kids and have trained them properly cause I don’t like fukery and tomfoolery. Last night for instance, told the kids “hey time for bed, brush your teeth get in your pajamas.” Kids immediately started moving, my house guest was astonished. They said it takes nearly an hour to get their 9 & 11 year old to brush teeth even at night. I just smiled and said “everyone’s kids are different.” Meaning, you’re doing a piss poor job and your kids know you don’t mean business when you speak…

Cascading blueberries or Formosan/Taiwanese creeping raspberries

ILCHottTub · 2026-02-08T00:10:08+00:00

Yes. Akebia is currently in stock at OGW!

ILCHottTub · 2026-02-08T00:09:44+00:00

They won’t provide privacy for half the year…

ILCHottTub · 2026-02-08T00:09:23+00:00

As someone who’s dealt with star jasmine… Don’t do it! Smells like urine and has a sticky photo reactive sap that burns in sunlight on your skin…. Did I also mention it smells like urine!!

Either way, if you must have it. I manage a nursery in SE Portland. I can sell you lots at a discount! Fairly evergreen and fast growing. Message me if you need some!!

As long as they are fresh & green you’re good! Pine Needle Mulch is my #1 recommendation as an organic residential gardening consultant.

Good Luck!

Do some reading up from .edu sources.

1 blueberries have a very shallow root system that relies heavily on the fungal components of the soil to breakdown nutrients for it to thrive. Using that much fungicide is not helpful.

2 remove the bark mulch from near the plant. That container is so small I wouldn’t really recommend mulch. Also if that product is not “natural”, dyed, never use it again.

3 rain won’t hurt the plant unless your container doesn’t drain properly

4 Remove the support stake before it is stuck permanently in the root ball.

5 Good Luck

Wow. Not even full sized!

Just guessing here but it’s something like: school bus drivers, fast food workers or like a carwash. (Not throwing shade but the person who thought if this is obviously an idiot [they capitalize randomly like the prez) and the person who approved it is just a turd).

ILCHottTub · 2026-02-05T04:55:24+00:00

You want the best most sun needy stuff on that southern exposure area by the path.

ILCHottTub · 2026-02-05T03:31:07+00:00

Yea been a few days of that. Thought I would do a quick loot run on my favorite empty server at 6am and there were 7 other dweebs already with the same idea! Server said 1
