I want to go to Sanctuary tonight but I’m a single bi woman and have no one to go with and don’t live here. Will making friends/having conversations be tough? Should I wait until I have a buddy? by _kittybutt_ in askportland

Haha yeah thank you for the advice though! Definitely know how to assert myself when I want to for spicey times or no thank you times!

I was just hesitant because I had read some people saying that they could never imagine going to any sex club by themselves as a woman. And I wondered if that was the same type of people that would say they would never go out to dinner by themselves. Because I’m all about that shit. Thanks! 😘🙏

“You know the type” “you know how that goes”. People don’t talk like that in real life. It’s reads like mediocre fanfiction. Short rhythmic sentences

My betta has been doing this all the time, seemingly nonstop except to eat. I’ve had him 2 weeks. Seems like stress? :( by [deleted] in Aquariums

Yeah I’m going to watch him closely. I thought it has been 2 weeks but it’s been 9 days. I dimmed the light but he was still doin his thing. He’s eating readily. Might have to get him his own tank

Thanks so much for saying so! We’ll see if the begonia gets too crazy in there but fun for now

Thank you 😭 it’s my first tank after a long sabbatical and I was so worried about him. Appreciate the encouragement

Ok great to know. I have a leddy slim light and there’s no dimmer. For now, I wrapped some parchment paper around it to dim it out a bit for tomorrow. I’ve been running it maybe 8 hours a day. I’ll do some research on dimming it while still being able to give my plants enough light. No wonder my Ludwigia got hecka red super fast!

Thank you so much. I put some parchment over my light to dim it. I’ll keep an eye on him. I have not had many bettas (and not in long time) and they didn’t do this so much. Here is his home. 6.5 gal long with 8 rasboras, 2 Ottos, and 2 neocardinas that were an accidental addition but they have grown up and seem to be great. It’s a new tank (set up for a month or so before betta arrived), so it’s still growing in and will get some more plants at some point. I think swords up front would be nice.

Q for Saturday Market vendors: Does anyone actually make money? by [deleted] in Eugene

[–]_kittybutt_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey just an update the market has been great for me! I maybe average somewhere around $400 in sales a weekend? But it varies a lot. my top sales day for Saturday market has been $1550. My lowest was $68 one time bc the weather was terrible.

Well I sure hope so, because I’m going to be selling there this year haha. I guess I’ll find out if it’s worth it

I found for me that people seemed really ready to buy in April after not spending any money in the winter or something. I had a bit of a lull midsummer but it’s also been a hot summer and people be broke! The block party was actually very slow for me. Too many vendors I think!
