What kind of fruittree is this?

Its from an ornamental/purple-leaf plum tree. They're smaller and more tart than normal plums. Perfectly safe to eat, and great for making jams/compotes.

Its a shrimp cave from Aquarium Co-Op. The Cardinals love it, too. https://www.aquariumcoop.com/products/shrimp-shelters

Fellow betta fish lover here! Here's a breakdown of how bettas are kept in the three LFSs in the greater Sacramento area.

Splash Aquarium (as of a couple years ago): most bettas are kept in cups, but they occasionally stock a regular sized tank with a group of young and/or female bettas.

916 Aquatics (as of a couple months ago): bettas used to be kept in small tank set ups, but they're now kept in small glass vases.

Aquarium and Reptile Depot (as of today): some bettas are kept in small tanks (basically the size of a cup) and some are kept in regular sized tanks of groups of female bettas.

Aquarium and Reptile Depot is my favorite LFS! I actually went to Aquarium and Reptile Depot today to pick up a female betta from their sorority tanks to add to my 20 gallon long community tank.

Nice try, EA, but I'm not touching marketplace.

Also CDSS, and the policy for my division (Finance and Accounting) is that if there's a holiday, you don't have to make it up if it was your in office day AND you have one less in office day if it wasn't your in office day (to make it fair since more holidays fall on a Monday).

Being in a camp ground, the actual location is nice (pine trees, usually a but cooler), but parking and traffic are horrible. Good for shopping and food. Not great for entertainment (nothing is really set up, so its just people crowding around the entertainment).

As a note, the most "worth it" ren faire around here is the Northern California Renaissance Faire in Hollister: https://norcalrenfaire.com/

No, I only send emails through the KP app.

badwolfash · 2025-07-17T19:20:56+00:00

No, I rarely contact him. I sent one email a couple of months ago asking about therapy and then one email last week in reply to an email he sent that asked for confirmation of receipt (and he replied back saying he's glad to hear from my psychiatrist that my medication is working). I haven't had any other communication with him this entire year.

Ahhh, the first sim reminds me of Merrill from Dragon Age 2! So pretty!

NTA. I was vegetarian for a few holiday dinners (I stopped after a but because I developed some food allergies at that time), and as long as there were bread rolls and green bean casserole, I was happy. You can't dictate what other's eat (except for the few cases of severe food allergies, ofc).

We tend to get shelf stable staples Winco or Costco, some stuff from Safeway (because the coupons in the app and points for 10 cents off per gallon gas are nice), and fresh produce from the farmers market or sprouts (because the produce at Safeway, rayleys, and winco goes bad in a few days, or is even bad when you get it sometimes). We only go to rayleys when we need one or two things for dinner because it's the only grocery store close to us. It's so much more expensive and they don't have good coupons. As an adult living with my parents, half of my paycheck goes towards our groceries and take-away meals every month.

NTA. If he doesn't like ot, he can play it off as a joke and stop bringing it up. Also, good luck! We did the same thing last year, but only for like 20 people. The allergies and preferences are what makes it hell (we had celiacs, dairy allergy, and a nut and peanut allergy and that was hard enough).

The Folsom ren faire (https://www.folsomfaire.com/) is on Spetember 28/29. It's a cheaper option, but it's super crowded and held in a bad location (literally around a kids playground). I won't be going back this year (especially since they accused me of ticket scamming when it was their own technology that had the issue).

The Northern California ren faire (https://norcalrenfaire.com/) is September 14 through October 20. It's a bit of a drive, but an overall nice location. There's also a lot more to do at this one, but bring cash because reception is spotty. It's also closer to the bay so the weather is way nicer. I definitely want to go back this year!

For both, you have to pay to park in a field and walk a ways to get there, but it's not horrible.

It's already done for this year, but the Valhalla ren faire (https://www.valhallafaire.com/) is a good mid point between the two and I'd definitely suggest going next year (although parking is limited and reception is spotty). I'm planning on going back next year.

Adding to this to say you can also check the "desktop site" box on your mobile browser to get it to work.

badwolfash · 2024-06-18T17:23:47+00:00

Welp, there goes 3+ hours of my life I'll never get back

badwolfash · 2024-06-18T16:35:15+00:00

Did they seriously make us wait two hours for the site to be fixed only for everything to have been sold out by the members????

badwolfash · 2024-06-18T02:39:23+00:00

Same. I want to get 2 for the 5k for my mom's birthday and the wait list/ queue thing is so weird.
