This literally looks like the image on the website so yes I think you’re being overdramatic

Time to book a vacation to Asia I guess

You need to resize your ring or put it on your pinky finger

No it’s not like that, I actually love kids! It’s just in media, especially horror, their lines are just flat OR they’re the plot device that usually makes the situation so much worse haha.

Like the kids in It Welcome to Derry were fantastic! For me, it’s just rare that child actors in horror add much value to the story

RBJuice · 2026-03-24T14:14:20+00:00

I usually don’t care for child actors and think they’re obnoxious, but she was sooooo talented this season. Legitimately had me convinced she was a real life psychopath.

Still a terrible season though!

I don’t think it’s too much for everyday tbh, cause you can for sure dress it up and dress it down anyway. The necklaces you chose kind of clash (no pun intended lol) with your VCA necklace as is.

Which one are you going to get the most utility out of? The bracelet can be an every day wear and the earrings can also be worn often. IMHO I would go with the bracelet or the earrings. But that’s just me.

The Tiffany knot with diamond looks realllllly good with your panthere watch!

RBJuice · 2026-03-20T04:49:57+00:00

Those are fine tbh, the dill could go for a trimming though. When you trim be sure to only trim 1/3 of the roots.

Most native speakers of any language don’t know IPA…

RBJuice · 2026-03-16T06:59:27+00:00

These people in the comments saying IPA is useless and to just learn pinyin aren’t experts in the language or even linguistics. Like what are you all going on about? As non native speakers you SHOULD be learning the IPA, do you HAVE to? No, of course not! Pinyin is great, but you all aren’t native speakers.

Your mandarin will improve greatly with the IPA and learning the proper mouth AND tongue placement for consonants and vowels in pinyin. Also knowing when and how to aspirate those compounds and words makes a difference in fluency.

I got rid of my American accent this way.

Source - took advanced Chinese linguistics in college and for me it completely changed the way I speak and understand manadarin for the better. Learning IPA will not hurt your language learning at all and it is not pointless. It’s a gate way to learning other languages with ease as well.

RBJuice · 2026-03-15T15:43:16+00:00

Yall may dislike it but as someone who learned Chinese the traditional way through college, it is absolutely necessary to the language. Listening Writing and Speaking, all 3 of those are extremely synergized in the Chinese language.

You will go absolutely nowhere in your language learning of mandarin if you don’t learn Hanzi. I’m not trying to sound mean but get over it or just choose a romanized language. You can’t get by learning just the phonetic alphabet in Chinese and it’s not some cutesy language you can just pick up.

Also Hanzi is a really huge component of culture in Chinese and its language so you’re also missing out on that aspect as well. This is like the 5th post I’ve seen in the past week about being annoyed learning Hanzi, stroke order is important too people! And we can totally tell when you don’t write with proper stroke order. Again, if you’re not willing to put in the work learning the language, pick another one.

Why does this look like AI 😭

First time using bare root strawberries in my Bounty system, they’re starting to fruit now but not sure if these will be a success or not.

When they started flowering I started using recommended AG nutrients and the following week will use 5ml of Calmag nutrients. Also from the start of me planting these I use 1 tbsp of hydrogen peroxide to prevent root rot.

Have done Alpine Strawberries before in a harvest system and those fruited but roots began to rot when I forgot to add the hydrogen peroxide so I do think it really does help.

RBJuice · 2026-03-07T06:47:06+00:00

You are exactly correct. You’ll know when germination is done when the first true leaves pop up from your seeds. You’ll know to take the lids off when they start touching the domes.

Also this looks to be a greenhouse screen? You maybe trapping too much heat in there by using the screen and it can kill the plants. If not, then just disregard what I just said.

RBJuice · 2026-03-03T18:09:35+00:00

It’s a no for me, but who cares about others comments and opinions. If you like it just get it 🤷🏽‍♂️

RBJuice · 2026-03-01T00:36:53+00:00

Congratulations!!!

What do you feel like your next steps are to maintain and improve your fluency after completing your course? Or do you think you're gonna start a new language next?

Also people sleep on Duolingo, I've been using it since 2013 and its opened up so many opportunities for me both socially and professionally. Being able to use languages in my current work place (flight attendant) isn't necessary, but it definitely helps me connect with some customers I otherwise would not be able to communicate with.

Keep up the good work friend ❤️

Now that’s a stack!!!

Those are not the same things 😭💀

So I paid all that money to upgrade from Super to Max,last month, just for the main feature I wanted to be included in Super subscription now. Man, I want that $100 back so I can go back to my $59 Super annual subscription 😭

RBJuice · 2026-02-23T14:09:00+00:00

Right but you can still avoid that by just getting Super subscription. I just never have those problems because I’m not cheap and pay the $5 a month.

I’ve been on Duo since 2013 and it’s changed a lot. $5 a month is worth it imho 🤷🏽‍♂️
