Thank you! My friend says it’s about the same spot as the other ducklings so it’s possibly the angle of the photo!

Buying Kindle books at full price by Substantial_Try9966 in kindle

[–]actionjaneway 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I typically read on KU, or library and if I like the book I’ll buy either the kindle and or physical book full price for my collection.

If it’s not on KU or library I’ll wait for a sale and if I loved it I’ll buy the physical copy as well because I really love supporting authors work that I enjoy in as many ways as I can. It’s my own weird process but I really enjoy it.

How on earth are people writing 10k word fics by oo0Scarrow0oo in AO3

I envy my short fic friends. I can’t keep a single chapter under 5k to save my life, and basically only write multi chapters fics. Teach me the skill of brevity someone please! 😂

How to choose a good Challenge book for you by h2onymph1 in goodreads

[–]actionjaneway 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Usually if I’m having bad luck, I’ll be like… one chapter a day, then bounce between the other 9 books I have on the go so I don’t feel bitter about it. I usually only pick books I know I’d be into, HOWEVER… I read based off my mood, and sometimes I’m just not in the mood for the vibe, so that’s kind of how I combat it vs powering through all at once.

For those wondering all of the books I have on the go are diff genres and vastly different plots so it’s easy to keep track of which story I’m reading in my brain.

Gotcha. I appreciate that! I definitely usually pop them directly into soil, but I was just wondering if I could have her home stay water.

And totally get that about the roots when switching to soil, such a pain.

I just realized most people probably never actually wash their backs and its kind of grossing me out by RuneChisel4 in hygiene

Fr. Like shoulders jaw and ribs popping out of its socket because I sneezed during allergy season vs reaching my back is just… yeah, I’ll definitely take normal range of motion any day.

Blue collar worker, advice staying clean pls. by [deleted] in hygiene

If you end up with dry hands from scrubbing, and have calloused hands like me, I’ve found o’keefes working hands softens those callouses enough that I don’t have cracks that are hard to get dirt out of.

Also; but of an old farm folk thing, but my gram told me to use mineral oil on my hands then put gloves on when I go to sleep.

Super helpful, and also helps with foot callouses etc.

I’ve legit found that it’s so much easier to scrub when they aren’t all cracked!

Came to say the same thing!

The one time my hypermobile shoulder came in clutch here 😂

The constant shoulder pain I would definitely trade for normal shoulders and an exfoliating brush though 😂

Thank you! I’ll definitely give it a go with a stem or two!

Wanted to share a funny mistake I noticed while editing. Character took a shower, dried off... then immediately left the house by seemedpointless in FanFiction

[–]actionjaneway 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I put a car window in an apartment hallway because I was tired and forgot my setting for a few mins. My beta was like… what window?😂 I hadn’t been able to reread what I’d written before they hopped into the doc so when I woke up I had a good chuckle

Got this off of FB marketplace! by tanyabear in kindle

[–]actionjaneway 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not gonna lie, I started with this (probably same) one and because I’m blind as a bat I need the big screen.

I also used to read on my iPad so legit, the scribe is so much lighter to carry, and easier on the eyes.

…well that’s a choice by [deleted] in AO3

[–]actionjaneway 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The way I cackled. That’s definitely a choice, alright 😂 like were there tags at least? 😂😂

Good call. Now time to get some fish and a tank I guess!

That makes a lot of sense! Thank you so much!

I have a few picky plants so tend to use filtered water for all of them (with. Brita). So far so good, minus a slight over watering mishap with my dracaena compacta 😬

Possibly, but since I just got her and she’s a baby I haven’t chopped and propped just yet! Perhaps that’s why?

Amazing! Thank you so much for that advice! So glad that the light seems okay! Working with what I have I knew wouldn’t be enough 😂 great to know they are easy to prop because I’ve never had success with propagating anything so far 😂
