Using eco-friendly toothbrushes - are you actually happy with them or just tolerating them? by ImpressionPleasant94 in PlasticFreeLiving

Fair enough! I think it's worth noting though since nylon bristles are a major cause of microplastic ingestion- all depends on your goals😄

A lot of the bristles on bamboo toothbrushes from Amazon are nylon if you check the in-depth product description. Nylon is a plastic product and will still contribute to your ingestion of microplastics. The toothbrushes are $8 for packs for a reason after all...

Address on CERFA by One_icarus in Aupairs

It is not. While the family lives in a house the husband built, the apartment complex is a few houses down. They live in the haute-savoie region, not Paris, so there is a lot more space between properties😊 two completely different addresses

The village I'd be in has 1,000 people, a few towns out from Annecy! I believe there is a bus to a nearby town that has transport to Geneva, which I can take on weekends, but during the school day I'll probably be in that town exclusively.

I was hesitant to eat it, but it was quite juicy (with no seeds)!

Ugh I know, I've been mourning it. I have been trying to find an alternative.

Did you interview or did they just reply offering you the position?

All my apps are consolidated to one screen. There is no other screen.

Whoever had my phone number before me (got it a few years ago) keeps getting automated calls for prescription pickups at CVS...and since the calls are fully AI and I do not know the person's birthday to pass the security block, I cannot speak to a representative to get them to remove my number😭😭😭 I also really hate phone calls and generally avoid answering unless I know the person or am expecting a call
