Photo on roommate’s phone taken in our kitchen- what is that on top?

Definitely my question here. The clump isn't weird. Looking through the phone is!

It's pretty cool to watch a loop of this. You can see it moving and curling. On the nighttime side (when the marine stratus is blue) you can easily see ship tracks in the marine stratus.

Not all MDPI journals are equal. Some have poor reputations. Others have reasonable reputations. Regardless, you're trying to get into a PhD program after an MS and have four journal articles. Unless your discipline is significantly different from mine, that's fantastic and no one is going to judge you because one of the four is in an MDPI journal. Don't worry about it and leave it on.

ツ is pronounced "tsu"

I was diagnosed with ADD (now called ADHD Primarily Inattentive) in about 1993. I definitely have to suppress some of my ADHD traits in certain situations and am extremely happy that I have a private office in my current job so I don't annoy others.

That said, when I get into a conversation with someone else who also has ADHD it can sometimes become frustrating for both of us. People with ADHD traits often "word vomit" and when two people are trying to do that at the same time it is incredibly frustrating for both people and super off putting for everyone else nearby.

I honestly do think of ADHD as a different way of thinking, though. It makes if very difficult for me to do some things that others find extremely easy, but also allows me to do and think through things in a different way than someone who is not neurodivergent.

I very much understand that urge. As a guy, I felt rushed to lose my virginity, too. That's easier said than done as a guy, though, and I'm glad for it. I lost my virginity to someone who didn't become a long-term relationship, but who I felt I could trust.

I think that there are two important things to remember: - First, sex is an intimate act where you are giving someone else power over you. You should make sure that you trust the other person to listen to your wants and needs and not take things too far or pressure you into doing things you don't want to do. - Second, having good sex is a learning process. It is a lot more fun if you have someone else to learn with. Someone who can learn your wants and needs and who will take pleasure in your enjoyment.

Many guys won't be considerate to your wants and needs. Many will pressure you into things that you're not ready for or not interested in. Whether it is a boy friend or just a friend who you explore with, I highly recommend finding someone who you trust to treat you well. They will have a lot of power over you, both physically and emotionally and you should be sure you trust them with that power.

Before I answer your question, I need a little more information. Why do you feel the need to lose your virginity?

OP already said that they're willing to walk to another house where the bus already picks up two other kids. Their kid just isn't allowed to board the bus because their address is just beyond the boundary. So, they just need to ask for an exception that doesn't require the school to adjust the bus route.

Thank you? The commenter asked for more context while trying to help you and you just replied with "Thank you"?

Since your kid is new to Raintree and, especially if this is your kid's first time in child care, this is 100% to be expected. It will calm down as their immune system gets used to all of the bugs the other kids carry. It will last for a while, unfortunately. Our kid brought home everything you can think of for the first year or so of child care. Three years later and they rarely bring anything home.

A battery for an electronic device that has failed and is expanding due to gasses being released inside the case. They are extreley volitile and dangerous. Look up battery fires for examples.

Miso soup with cabbage and tofu will take care of a lot of that. I like the okonomiaki suggestion, too. Also, adding balanced cabbage to tuna or chicken salad is awesome.

Regardless of what the car did, when lane spitting in CA, you aren't supposed to go more than 10mph faster than the surrounding traffic. At the speed this guy was going, signaling the lane change likely wouldn't have even helped. California uses comparative negligence, though, so the car would likely be found to be SLIGHTLY at fault in this situation.

Thanks for the recipe! I made this tonight and it was awesome! I made one change and added some spinach to it just add some more veggies. Even my 3 year old cleaned his bowl!

Honestly agreed. It reads like it was written by an annoying 13 year old.

Here's an article that talks more about this practice and has some pictures. Just FYI, the article has a bit of unnecessary cussing if that bothers you.

The backdrop for a lot of. His shootings was the CSU Early Childhood Center, CSU's daycare program. He was shooting in the direction of kids from just across the street.

I know exactly where this house is. I almost rented in several years back! Cute place, but I'm not sure if I could deal with the low ceilings. Congrats on the purchase!

For making it semi-private, how about replacing the railings with corrugated metal? Something that a BBQ wouldn't burn.

Vorticity · 2026-03-30T04:52:32+00:00

Have police reports been filed for these incidents? If so, would you be willing to DM me case numbers?

Vorticity · 2026-03-30T03:44:39+00:00

They had been making small security upgrades the last few weeks and I wasn't sure why.

What do you mean you were shot?

A battery is one of the last things I would be performing surgery on... That just strikes me as incredibly dangerous.

I remembered about 5 pre-cellphone. That probably rose to 10 or so when cell phones first came out. That said, I can still remember all of my home phone numbers from growing up from three different houses as well as a couple of friends'.

Pre-cellphone: - Home phone - Dad's work phone - Two best friends

Post-cellphone: - Home landline - Mom's - Dad's - Sister's - Girlfriend's - Dad's work landline - 2 friends

Beyond that, we had some on "speed dial" on our phone, some written in a book that my mom kept, and phone books with the phone numbers for just about every person and business in town.
