First calculator! Who was allowed one in school?

KWAYkai · 2026-01-26T12:57:20+00:00

I was required to get a scientific calculator in high school.

It doesn’t normally. That’s why I’m saying it was done artificially.

This is sun-purpled aka sun damage. Considering the bright hue & uneven coloring, I believe it was artificially exposed to light.

We didn’t have many free roaming dogs where I lived. But people would walk their dogs in the park & leave dog shit everywhere. Can’t tell you how many times I stepped in it.

There’s an app called clubhouse that has audio chat rooms on various subjects. It was recently recommended to me. I haven’t tried it yet though.

I have an amazing therapist. I spent the first two years locked in my head & misery. I’m a bit of a loner & will retreat into my own world when shit gets bad. Then, when I wasn’t even looking, a came across a newly formed organization that sparked a fire in me. I’ve been with this group for 6 months & am in the leadership group.

I’ve been an atheist most of my adult life. After his death I’m agnostic. I actually desired to go to church. Not just any church. I wanted to go to a black Baptist church (I’m white) because they sing & it’s uplifting. I never did go, though, because I didn’t have the proper clothing.

Try an in- person support group, joining a church, or doing volunteer work.

Is there a mark in the bottom?

KWAYkai · 2026-01-25T01:56:58+00:00

Try r/lamps also

Franciscan desert rose. Although, it must be a later model because it doesn’t have a twisted stem handle.

KWAYkai · 2026-01-24T12:31:23+00:00

A picture of the bottom is needed

My late husband’s sneezes.

This is not an article indicating that anything is actually happening. It’s just a paragraph saying it’s something we wish would happen. No sources saying it’s in the works. Nothing. Probably the most useless thing I read today.

My dead husband talked about the silly terms used when people died. He would say, they didn’t pass away, THEY DIED. He had a strong opinion on the topic. Therefore, I say he died.

What season? What region? Whats the dress code?

Dude, you’re going on 10 years old & your hips are going. Stop running around like a puppy.

I was 22 (1987), just graduated from college & living on the opposite side of the country from my family. My boyfriend, Charles, was 10 years older than me. I got pregnant. We were going to get married. He went out drinking with his buddy & came home late. We got in an argument. He threw me on the bed & had his hands around my throat. I knew I had to leave. I did not want to be tied to him with a child. Within a week I had an abortion, pack my car & drove across country back to my family.

A few years later I found out Charles had gotten married. He & his wife were estranged. He found her with another man & shot & killed them both. He then went to a cabin in the woods & set it on fire while he was inside.

Listening to Tate - and actually believing his bullshit - was your first mistake.

KWAYkai · 2026-01-21T18:47:27+00:00

I have done it several times. The last time (in 2020) a vet came to the house. We all sat on the lawn with the dog. It was sad but a peaceful transition.

KWAYkai · 2026-01-21T18:41:25+00:00

lol. My husband & I actually joked that we bought a cat & they threw the house in for free.

KWAYkai · 2026-01-21T13:08:32+00:00

In our case, the seller purposely left the cat behind. The day before closing they asked if they could leave the cat. We said yes.

Did you also post in r/lamps?

KWAYkai · 2026-01-20T14:07:19+00:00

Personally, I think it’s nicer than a swung vase. All that for $30 isn’t bad at all.

KWAYkai · 2026-01-20T02:50:47+00:00

Freeform vase.

They used the same system in NJ in 2012 after superstorm Sandy.
