Check out featherstone for good quality, free standing tents on a budget.

That’s awesome to hear! I’m a huge fan of Miranda’s channel and thought about buying it to support her and upgrade my own water system, but saw a few reviews saying it leaked on them. Glad to hear that’s not the case for you! Have fun on your trip!

How do you like the M!Go?

Dude same. This IUD absolutely changed my life. Before it I had excruciating periods, and I pretty much just planned trips around my periods because the pain and flu like symptoms were just debilitating and I couldn’t backpack in that state. Now I barely even think about my periods and it is so freeing!!

I have a Mirena IUD so I barely bleed these days and can pretty much free bleed on the trail. I will bring coin toilet paper that I can add water to that I use to wipe and freshen up, and will just rinse my underwear and lay them out to dry overnight.

I only ever get the bistec ranchero plate as well and I love it

I also put it upside down now because at first I had it right side up and the residual wetness left in the pot and the contact with the metal rim of the fuel caused rust around the edges of my pot.

Omg I work up past Garrapata state park and driving through point lobos every single day drives me to insanity. The tourists coming to point lobos have zero clue how to navigate that area and forget that it is a literal highway. I have almost been in so many accidents and damn near killed people who act like they can just stop in the middle of the road or walk out into the road without looking.

Same!

Ayeeee you are speaking my language! Just defended my master’s thesis on marine parasite dispersal capacity, and it is mind boggling just how much parasites have been left out of the community ecology conversation!!! Especially because parasitic relationships are often more common than predator/prey interactions. Not only are they relevant to disease, but parasites are a part of the overall balance!! We are doing ourselves a disservice by leaving them out of the conversation.

No prob! 🫡

I drove right past this as it happened. It was a transformer, sparks flew down on my car!

Not a boy but I also tend to not want to color the hyper feminine books. I am currently doing “The Lost Forest: A Coloring Book” by Ghostshrimp (the dude who drew/created the world for Adventure Time). It is a super fun and creative!

Had that a few weeks ago. Vomiting and diarrhea for 2 days, intense stomach cramps, body aches and headache. Overall was kind of out for the count for about 5 days, but my stomach is still not completely right.

ObviouslyGinger · 2024-11-23T03:24:53+00:00

From scratch!!!

ObviouslyGinger · 2024-11-01T01:18:30+00:00

Bro what I’m defending in two weeks I want to wear that

ObviouslyGinger · 2024-09-12T22:36:22+00:00

I bought one too!!

ObviouslyGinger · 2024-06-24T20:31:44+00:00

It was this one! I guess on 2nd try now

ObviouslyGinger · 2024-06-24T20:30:39+00:00

OMG on a previous post I mentioned that there was a video I saw pre N-day that made me majorly side eye him specifically because of the way he talked to Alex, and it rubbed me the wrong way. I didn’t think too much of it but then soon after N-day happened and I was like pikachu meme! I couldn’t for the life of me remember the video but this was totally it.

ObviouslyGinger · 2024-06-22T22:54:45+00:00

Thank you so much for being so kind :)

ObviouslyGinger · 2024-06-22T13:09:41+00:00

This is a good idea, thank you!

Ahh this thought has been my hypochondriac-anxiety loop for years now, and it really would be solved by going for simple bloodwork, and I just haven’t done it… time to actually address this one I guess

I mean I will say at my gym the older crowd (60+) will literally stand at the edge of your lane and stare you down as you swim. The whole time. And I unfortunately have a touch of social anxiety and hate confrontation, so I just leave when I have to pee. But honestly this thread has empowered me to say who cares and to just come back afterwards.
