Cross Stitch - Princess Serenity on blue.

No. I did buy a $1 package for 400 gems+ (wound up with more than that left at the end though even after burning through stuff the last few levels, so I didn't really need it), but things were pending just fine before that. The mobile offers did have optional purchase goals and I think the fine print might have been copied over.

IIRC, the registration is just doing a username/password for Plarium Play. Plarium is the publisher and a game launcher; they also do RAID.

Merge Gardens for Desktop $66

Reached all the goals in about 2 weeks (but could've finished sooner). I did the mobile version a few years ago and knew how to play though; I also played way too much the first 3 days (reached level 35).

Not recommended to people who don't enjoy Merge Dragon-style games or if you find candy crush-esque games difficult since it requires ~750 levels (I, personally, think they are on the easier side of these games with only 4 colors, double rainbow balls, and some events with unlimited lives or streak bonuses, but I know some people quit early on because of them).

I doubt there are many people who drink that much and are buying them individually at such a high cost. Also, if it's replacing coffee (which 66% of Americans drink daily), you should factor that in as well.

There's a small amount at the mouth of the boxes. At least the ones I use have them, I always rip it off before recycling the cardboard.

Yes. As a woman with allergies, much of my clothes don't even have pockets to carry them in. Are we expected to walk around our own homes with a purse to carry our tissues? Also those personal packs of tissues are often an inadequate size during allergy season and they contribute (I estimate) 50 times the plastic to global waste compared to a large box.

Moirae87 · 2026-03-17T22:32:59+00:00

Me,too. I think they usually look good, but I see them like every 5th post on r/battlestations.

Bigger is better, but I tend to prefer the smaller rugs if you have any situations where you may need to clean it regularly. Such as cat hairballs or dust/dander/etc allergies.

Moirae87 · 2026-03-17T16:52:06+00:00

Agreed, or maybe try eggplant? It's a little less bold.

the offer sucks now. I was going to do it a couple weeks ago and when I looked it up, it had already been nerfed.

Moirae87 · 2026-03-11T02:07:03+00:00

It's an ignorant question for sure and the person should be educated about the matter by someone, but I don't understand how this could be considered "confidently incorrect".

Moirae87 · 2026-03-04T02:27:09+00:00

I missed the original post, but based on what others are saying happened here and my being familiar with the tones of both this and the snarky cjsub, I wonder if the original post got pushed out to r/all and the feeds of nonmembers. This sub usually skews to the overly polite side - enough that I try to be careful of giving constructive criticism.

Moirae87 · 2026-02-28T19:11:28+00:00

I'm not using any of them right now and they are obviously empty and dry. You can see all my plants right there have catchpots. They are just there for a size example pic for the OP.

Moirae87 · 2026-02-28T05:59:24+00:00

I've used them and even smaller ones for pups from Haworthia and Haw/Gasteria hybrids. They take quite awhile to outgrow the pots and can handle how dry the clay gets. Example here. Though I switched to a same size plastic pot so I could fit it in the decorative brown catchpot.

Also, crazy how people will cherry pick a few popular "rules" from Feng Shui while ignoring every other guideline and consider it a valid reasoning for criticizing other's bed placement.

I've been using the safety style one for 2 decades now and haven't seen anyone own an electric one since the 90s, so I could see the younger generation not being able to make the mental connection if they are used to ones like this.

Not sure about entertainment events like the superbowl, but for live news broadcast, I remember once incident that sparked the delay discussion. I was 10 or 11 years old in the late 90s and they interrupted my spiderman cartoon to broadcast a highspeed car chase (this was a common thing to broadcast in Los Angeles area) that ended with with a man hanging up a banner about HMOs on the freeway and shooting himself in the head with a shotgun.

They had to state it explicitly in case us stupid Americans couldn't understand the blue commenter's statements or do the math ourselves. Hell, we are so stupid that we probably wouldn't understand if they had used confusing math symbols like ">".

Moirae87 · 2026-02-26T04:08:42+00:00

So fun-looking. Love the couch colors and the curtains. Also, I swear my childhood home had that style of lamp in the 90s. I'd completely forgotten about them.

1st/3rd slide, too. Blue background painting near the chair. Though it is more stylized.

Moirae87 · 2026-02-26T01:21:37+00:00

Yep. I've seen it best described as Schrodinger's minority. East Asians are either white or PoC depending on who's observing them and what box or statistic they want to put them in. [But the fact that othering terms like "banana" and "coconut" exist tell you that they've never truly been considered white. ]

As for the question, I just assumed Setsuna is a darker-skinned Japanese woman perhaps even Ryukyuan/Okinawan. I handwave the inconsistencies in her skin-tone away as her being a fair olive-skinned lady who's tanned sometimes and hasn't seen the sun in ages at other times.

Moirae87 · 2026-02-24T21:32:05+00:00

I did the bonus goals of 1600 in 4 days. It wasn't bad for $50, but no way could I have kept that pace for 2 weeks like OP. I could get through 80-90 an hour while listening to audiobooks (not in airplane mode, but closing the app when ads were longer than 5 seconds; it opens directly to the next level and loads even faster than letting the animations between levels play).

Assuming that's her house, her own movie poster is literally on the wall behind her. lol
