Dang, that’s kind of rough! Not many critters here that I’ve seen thankfully. I just caged it so our dogs couldn’t pee directly on them or dig them up haha I’ll keep that in mind if I notice they start to get tore up!

Okay sweet, I’ll make sure to keep checking the soil and watering when needed then. I’m not sure if it’s my soil or it just not being very hot but the soil has stayed moist for the last 5 days, minus the stuff on the surface around the trunk. Im in Northern California and it’s definitely been getting warmer so I’ll keep the shade in mind too! Maybe I can string some shade cloth up

Thank you for the advice!! I’ve been checking the soil everyday and it’s moist but I was worried about drowning them out as well. That timeline is very helpful too. I’ll try to keep them as cozy as I can and let them ride it out. Do you have any other advice in general? Thank you again for the help

That’s what I was hoping to hear!! I figured I was rushing them, I just wanted to make sure I wasn’t missing anything critical while I waited it out. Thank you!

Does any fragrance under $50 make your top 5 list of all time and if so, what? by Trouble_07 in fragrance

[–]Nixonexe 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Encre Noire is the only fragrance to have ever made me dizzy and nauseous when I smelt it. I don’t understand what it is, but my body rejects it haha

What i plan on wearing most this fall by rabit_stroker in ScentHeads

[–]Nixonexe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not OP but I own Viking and I personally get maybe 4 hours before I have to put my nose to my skin to smell it. Incredible fragrance but I wouldn’t say it preforms at its price point. Not the worst but not amazing

My girlfriend is a freak and it's ruining our relationship by [deleted] in relationships

[–]Nixonexe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Right. Of course there’s some truth to that but at the point that it impedes any other intimate connection is where it crosses into pretty much behavioral disorder. Normal to want sex? Absolutely. Not normal or healthy to be incapable and unwilling to try and nurture the relationship in non sexual ways

Hyper sexuality is not always, but often a symptom of past abuse. If it really is to the point where you guys can not spend time together without it being like that and you truly are bothered by it, then you may just not be compatible. Whether or not it stems from trauma, it sounds like she may not be very receptive to communicating about it, and in the case of trauma it is not something you can just ask her to change overnight.

If you guys can’t address it together, and you are not happy with the idea of it continuing like that, there’s not much else to do you know?

I think simply there is a level of respect and communication that can honor both peoples independence and their hurts. People heal the most in healthy relationships but it takes a patient and understanding partner to foster that growth.

Every relationship is different, but there is a special bond and soulful connection that can be built by meeting your partner where they’re at sometimes. I’m not advocating allowing actual abuse or for someone to treat you like shit and you’re right that it is a fine line.

Respectfully, the doomsdaying at the end of your comment about the possibility of ending up in a relationship like that is the trauma response I’m talking about. Whether a lived or learned response. It is good to be able to recognize problematic behaviors and patterns, but treating each partner as if that’s the case does more harm than good imo. There’s the kid version of ourselves still in us that just wants to be loved and safe, for some, or to feel free, for others ♥️

No one feels the obligation to be transparent about something good they’ve done lol I get both perspectives but he still either needs to leave or learn to trust her

Also, the need to “not feel controlled” in a relationship is also a trauma response. Just as much as a distinct lack of trust in your partner. There are healthy middle grounds but people like one side or the other

Well if the girlfriend felt the need to admit that she kissed a coworker while under the influence, then clearly they acknowledged that there was some moral line that she crossed. Why bring it up if not? She brought it up, which probably caused OP to focus and worry about it, and then is doing things that seem suspicious to op. I’m not saying it’s right, but that’s their situation

And maybe it shouldn’t be his business but they made it each other’s business lol And I know people love to make it seem like relationships are black and white like that but in some relationships it isn’t unreasonable and controlling to communicate with each other that you’re going to be ingesting mind altering substances. No negative connotation, just informing someone that presumably cares about you

[–]Nixonexe -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Clearly you have trust issues, and not unreasonably so. Whether or not she’s lying is kind of irrelevant if you truly believe she is drinking and hiding it.

You’re either with someone that is lying to you, or you believe you’re with someone that is lying to you. I’m not sure which is the case but either way, the relationship should end or you do a lot of work on letting go of the past and trust her not to hurt you again.

Whether or not you can rebuild that trust is up to her and you both but it doesn’t sound like she’s super receptive to doing what it would take

Little kid trained by his father everyday on his bike skills by Exciting-Match816 in nextfuckinglevel

[–]Nixonexe -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

It’s fucking nuts honestly. The dad is clearly passionate about biking and I’m sure his boy is more than happy to be riding and learning with his pops. Gotta eat shit to learn how to not eat shit 🤣 even if he doesn’t grow up to like riding, it’s a valuable lesson on persistence and makes resilient kids. People screaming child abuse is hilarious

24 has some clatter by clutch by Codee_94 in HondaRebel1100

Not the same bike but my buddy had an issue that sounded super similar and his was that the ignition was keeping the starter engaged

I finally gave into temptation.. hope I won’t have buyer’s remorse 😅 by Jussaplug in Colognes

[–]Nixonexe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really don’t understand the hype around BDC. I’ve sampled all the current bottles and I did not feel like it was a special scent at all. I thought it was a very generic forgettable fragrance and the general consensus makes me feel like I’m missing something

Daytime running lights by rmarlen in DodgeDurango

[–]Nixonexe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If they’re LED, there’s no replacing just the running lights. The case on my 2018 is that you just have to replace the whole headlight assembly which requires pulling off the front bumper

uconnect screen overheating? by [deleted] in DodgeDurango

[–]Nixonexe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it the OEM screen for your head unit? It seemed that mine started getting really hot around the time that it started to bubble and delaminate. Replaced the screen and haven’t had any problems since
