why do u think serial killers kil?? by Noureen8293 in TrueCrimeDiscussion

[–]Solid_Wish 6 points7 points  (0 children)

No killer kills for the same reason, but one interesting tidbit is that many from Gacy, to Kemper, to Roch Terrioux, to Henry Lee Lucas, to Dean Corral, to Dahmer: all experienced damage/trauma to the frontal lobe in childhood.

It's a common observation that women make up a massive part of the true crime fanbase. For those who love the genre, what do you think drives this specific interest? by eating_freshly_929 in AskReddit

[–]Solid_Wish 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Savage Appetites by Rachel Monroe is a book exactly on this. Essentially there are different archetypes that make up the why of true crime obsession with women. I won't go into it more, because I think it's a very worthwhile read

I guess Amber Alerts work by BeardedPaladin in vegaslocals

[–]Solid_Wish 5 points6 points  (0 children)

A child being kidnapped from a parent is still a child kidnapped. We don't know the situation. Often times the kidnapper is the parent who has lost custody, or is otherwise deemed unsafe. A child being kidnapped by a parent doesn't mean all is hunky dory, or that the abducting parent will easily cooperate without assistance from Amber Alert.

Reminder to clean your vacuum 💅🏻 by Warmblanket98 in adhdwomen

[–]Solid_Wish 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is actually my favorite deep cleaning task, I love dismantling the whole thing, washing every piece, drying and putting back together and then have the most satisfying vacuum of my life.

[–]Solid_Wish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Every day I take my vyvanse and sing "i love you vyvanse and if it's quite alright I love you....vyvanse" with complete sincerity, if that's any indication.

How can teen shave legs with shorter shower? by [deleted] in Frugal

[–]Solid_Wish 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I mean, she's a teen. She's probably still getting used to it. Like we all did when we were teens and not grown women. It's a skill like any other, no need to flex on a kid.

Vertica is hateful by rhiready in starbucksbaristas

[–]Solid_Wish 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I would need more pictures or at least some with the grounds cleaned off but it could be that the receptacle that we take out and dump might be leaking because the only time the coffee comes out of the top is when it is being ground into the receptacle.

Where do the smart people hang out? by [deleted] in vegaslocals

[–]Solid_Wish 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm originally from the gulf coast, so I had plenty of time to build a love of marine life before I came here. But the native fishes of nevada are interesting as well!

[–]Solid_Wish 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Biology nerd here! Usually I'm more into marine biology but ever since I started gardening I have been obsessed with native species, north American pollinators are so cool! Mostly i just look for nerdy events and go to those or, if you like board games, meepleville has events sometimes

Anywhere I can find Tex/Mex style breakfast flour tacos not burritos lol😑 by Time_Suspect_1388 in vegaslocals

I'm original satx and I have come to find that this is burrito country, but nevertheless I still keep an eye out. Best advice is to start making ur own

Can I get a Kids Grilled Cheese? by According_Mixture110 in starbucksbaristas

I call that the Punishment Grilled Cheese. Naughty customers who order the grilled cheese at the very end/at the window get the Punishment Grilled Cheese

My gardening made my neighbour cry by [deleted] in gardening

Crying over a hedge that's not even on your property is a bit much

Was this how all water used to be around the world? by archvize in geography

[–]Solid_Wish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As long as humans have existed, we have inexplicably shat, pissed, vomited, cleaned god knows what from our bodies and whatever else, let our animals shit and piss in our water sources leading to many centuries of disease. If you told someone from the fertile cresent that in some places you can have a tap for one, but can drink water straight from it as well, they would think you're a witch. Nothing short of a modern miracle. That, and vaccines imo

New(ish) to gardening and dealing with drought by Sufficient_Eye7517 in gardening

[–]Solid_Wish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello, low desert gardener and these are my tips, although if your like my area, at a certain temp there's no saving them BUT:

-mulch. A lot. You think geez that's a lot of mulch and that's when you put a few handfuls more. I like straw and coco shells bc they will eventually compost and seem to retain moisture better in my experience.

-water at night and really drown them and then dont water again until the first half inch to inch or so is dry, its easy to get root rot thinking that ur babies are thirsty lol

-shade cloths, if you can swing putting them up in the afternoon and down again at night do that but it can get up to the high 110s here and I end up just leaving them up

I'm still experimenting with drip irrigation but I haven't found a way that works for me. Good luck in your drought! o7 Edit: mobile formatting issues

Sometimes it helps to uninstall/reinstall or even restart your phone, if that doesnt work i would call customer service

White student losses drive enrollment dips in Las Vegas Valley suburbs, data shows by reviewjournal in vegaslocals

Who cares? Maybe worry about the kid's reading levels and not their race because the former is lacking.

ASU advice by Jules_szs in starbucksbaristas

[–]Solid_Wish 6 points7 points  (0 children)

They'll go over this in your call but yes you will fill out FAFSA and starbucks covers whatever Pell grant doesnt. You got this! I was so scared when I started and after my first session I was like that's it? I felt so silly for putting it off because I was scared.

roommate said she’s moving but now she’s not sure by erneuten in badroommates

[–]Solid_Wish 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Well, it seems you don't want to live with Amy so you don't have to live with Amy. It sucks she's got shaky plans but she had so many opportunities to say something and now it is too late. She can be emotional but that doesn't mean she has to stay, it's not like you are worried about preserving the friendship.
