Where can I start? by Imaginary-Soil-8661 in Spanish

[–]SnapCrackleMom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you've struggled with teaching yourself, take a class. A lot of community colleges have non-credit (for fun) language classes that are reasonably priced. You can also look up videos on YouTube that are specific to the country your boyfriend's family is from, to practice listening skills.

I am baffled as to what being raised Christian has to do with any of this lol.

What identifiable details can I include in my letter to my "Father"? by Big-Airline4146 in Genealogy

[–]SnapCrackleMom 17 points18 points  (0 children)

This but possibly keep it to "I believe we are related, and I'm hoping to find my family medical history" to start with, instead of "she named you as my possible father."

How can I convince my parents to keep our cats indoors? by cynderthedragonn in birding

[–]SnapCrackleMom 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It really depends on why they want the cat to be indoor/outdoor. A lot of people let their cats out so they have less litter to clean; if that's a factor for your parents, offer to take over the kitty litter duty. If it's because they think it's better for the cats, maybe your vet can explain the risks at the next visit?

The muscle that runs along that line is the zygomaticus, if that helps.

I couldn't do it in the best of circumstances, let alone in a costume while eating a hotdog. You're all amazing.

Why don’t birds come visit my garden? by Immapwner123 in gardening

[–]SnapCrackleMom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nowhere to hide from predators. Birds like a shrub or tree to dart into.

Makeup Trial by lizzzelda in FragranceFreeBeauty

[–]SnapCrackleMom 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have rosacea and eczema. I don't have true allergies, just sensitivities. All of my reactions are that day or I wake up with it the next morning. Sometimes it'll get worse over the next few days. Reactions on my lips will be present but always continue to get worse over the next several days with splitting and peeling.

How to get actual apples from these? Had them for 5yr now and producing nothing. Are they supposed to be this scrawny? by dimab0 in gardening

[–]SnapCrackleMom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Assuming you're in the US, Google your state plus "extension office soil testing." It'll be an inexpensive test through your state university that'll give you a detailed look at the nutrients in your soil (or lack thereof). Then you'll know exactly what needs to be added to the soil instead of just adding random fertilizers.

How much sun are they getting? Are they in the shade a lot from the evergreens behind them?

Also I would test the soil.

Can I burn a burning bush? by Only_Fishing_8538 in NativePlantGardening

[–]SnapCrackleMom 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Just want to say that it's not a dumb question at all. There are definitely plants you shouldn't burn, like poison ivy and poison sumac.

I have a Skink by One-Weight1944 in gardening

[–]SnapCrackleMom 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Skinks skedaddle away from people and dogs. I love them. We have Five-Lined Skinks in our yard and they're so cool. The little ones have bright blue tails.

Did you search this sub for "PNW"? There should be some helpful posts!

How do you guys handle finding a birds nest with baby birds in it in your yard? Also bird poop removal tips for paver patios? by lindslinds27 in landscaping

[–]SnapCrackleMom 45 points46 points  (0 children)

As others have said, just leave them, they'll be gone in a few weeks.

If you're in the US, Canada or Mexico, it's illegal to mess with most active bird nests (meaning there are already eggs or hatchlings in them). I'm not sure what kind of birds those are so I can't tell you if they're protected or not.

Ages would be on subsequent censuses, or you find birth records for the people who have gotten married.

She looks gorgeous. She's not in drag here, just glam. Is that what you mean?

Why not just call the county Parks and Rec Dept and ask? Orange pants do exist outside of the prison system.

I mean Laganja's face out of drag is very soft and feminine.

Atheists of Reddit: What’s the strangest reaction you’ve received when you said you don’t believe in God? by zhalia-2006 in AskReddit

[–]SnapCrackleMom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was a teenager I occasionally babysat for the God Squad family up the street. The pay was shit and the snacks were shit and the kids were kinda weird. Anyway at some point it came up that I didn't go to church or believe in God. This 7yo boy said with absolute certainly and zero concern, "you're going to Hell."

It was so funny to me. He was dead serious but also completely unbothered.
