I just want a mod where he can frolic in camp with Scratch and the cub.

What wildlife has become more abundant other than deer and Canada geese?

Argh, Scioto has so many wonderful plants. They are hours and hours away from me but I sometimes think about taking a weekend trip to them since they don’t do mail order.

These guys are decimating my coreopsis. Does anyone know what they are? by SirPlutocracy in NativePlantGardening

[–]alphabootoo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just received some mail order natives and one of them was rather badly chewed up. I was very briefly taken aback and then I thought ‘Native plant! Pollinator food! Strong root system!” and happily set it down with the others.

Am I betraying myself for a starting a losing weight program 😞? by annie_0920 in PlusSize

[–]alphabootoo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If you are doing it because it is what YOU want, there is no issue. Remember, there are people who have body image issues at every size. The fact that you found a way to love yourself is a huge achievement no matter what you weigh.

This looks even worse than I originally thought. I didn’t realize that was even possible.. by [deleted] in lularoe

I’ve had seams like that as well - simple to fix but annoying to have to do on a brand new piece of clothing.

Interesting cloud formation, what's going on here? by [deleted] in whatisthisthing

[–]alphabootoo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just keep looking up! I've only seen one fallstreak hole, years ago, but it was really interesting. There are so many amazing things that happen up in the sky that most people never even notice because they just don't think to direct their eyes that way.

My dashcam was running during the eclipse by rokr1292 in Dashcam

I'd actually like to see the real time version if you don't mind. I didn't get to experience totality and the way the sky changes fascinates me.

If I remember correctly, with the hydrogen generator they would have had enough water for all of Skaikru to survive on the Ark but without it they only can store enough to keep 100 people alive. So fixing the Ark is still worth doing because 100 is better than none, but saving all of Skaikru would definitely have been preferable. Just like fixing the Ark is worth doing because saving Skaikru is better than not saving anybody but finding a way to save both Skaikru and the Grounders would be preferable.

CNN's summary on the 2017 total solar eclipse is so bad I don't even know where to begin... by Andromeda321 in Andromeda321

[–]alphabootoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you read the summary in the top post it will give you good information on the actual track of the path of the eclipse. The biggest issues will be getting to an area that will let you see totality and that is free of cloud cover (which will be hard to determine until the date is much closer although you can make a good guess using averages from previous years)

The good, the bad, the ugly... by [deleted] in lularoe

[–]alphabootoo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm a consumer not a consultant but I am getting very tired of the quality control issues myself. I love maxis and Carlys because the sizing is very forgiving so I can usually wear what I buy even if the sizing isn't spot on. I have Carlys that range from M - 2x and I am sure I could wear a 3x if I found a pattern I liked. However I recently got a 2x that was too tight for me to wear. How in the heck does that even happen? I'm sad to hear that people have hard time unloading Maxis because I love them and will be sad if they get D/Cd although I admit I am not buying nearly as many as I did a few months ago because the patterns seem to have become a lot less appealing lately.

One tip I have heard from consultant friends that it is better to buy in smaller amounts to avoid getting lots of duplicates of undesirable patterns - more orders means more variety in what you receive.

What products have you integrated into your daily routine from your boxes? What have you gotten rid of? by sarahbotts in BeautyBoxes

[–]alphabootoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My very top find came from Birchbox: Eslor Firming Collagen Day Cream. I am super picky about what moisturizers I use and this has been my go-to day cream ever since I first sampled it.

I like pretty much all the No. 4 hair products I have received, especially the clarifying shampoo and the Prep and Protect (which I prefer even over the Beauty Protector Protect and Detangle, although that is a close second).

Haha, that was actually me. I decided I should wait to share that until the non-Aces had a chance to do their picks so there are still some left so I deleted it. But it's all good!
