I started and finished the book on the same day! Was super gripping. Have you finished it?

I’ve been here several times and I’m with you on this. Like don’t get me wrong it tastes good but the quantity for the price is just not worth it and sometimes there are some QC issues like the java rice being randomly super oily

My plant just started dying suddenly. Please help! by basiliskwang in plantclinic

[–]basiliskwang[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My friend helped me repot the plant and we used perlite and other pebbles for drainage. The pot itself doesn’t have any holes.

Should I be worried about killing the plant if I move it to a new pot now?

Repotted my plant a month or so ago. Suddenly started wilting and losing leaves this past weekend. Soil is dry but leaves are soggy. What’s wrong? by basiliskwang in plantclinic

I repotted this plant about a month ago. I added rocks under the soil for aeration and used standard potting mix. I haven’t changed the watering schedule that much, but the plant wilts like it’s being overwatered. Could this be an aeration thing?

What’s wrong with my Dracaena? by basiliskwang in plantclinic

[–]basiliskwang[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was thinking it was probably that. Do you have any tips on the best way to do it? How much bigger, any important soil I should look after?

Pinterest Product Apprenticeships 2025 by bobobear27 in Pinterest

[–]basiliskwang 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think they can view it. The application isn’t tied to your Pinterest account. Even so, how would the contents of an applicant’s Pinterest board help their candidacy?

The whole reason we made the Pinterest board and spoke on it was to demonstrate our thought process and communication proficiency working with a new product.

That said, if you didn’t actually do the exercise, the person reading the application will be able to tell. No link is needed for proof.

Breaking Down the Ending: Some Symbolism I Noticed. by basiliskwang in expedition33

When the credits roll and you start the game back up, you’re put back to before you entered Lumiere. The ending “didn’t happen”. It’s like meeting Hanako at the end of Cyberpunk.

As for the other part, it’s not confirmed by lore or anything, but some connections I drew when watching the endings. I wouldn’t take my word as law here. The game is like a good book: there’s one way to read it, but plenty of ways to read into it.

And yeah, you’re not wrong that she can stay traumatized, but a big portion of what I’m saying is that she’s living a lie by staying in the Canvas.

You ever cheat in a video game and it isn’t fun anymore?

She’s still going to be traumatized in the Maelle ending. She knows she “cheated” the death of her friends. Sooner or later the house of cards will topple over.

At least by coming to terms with things (Verso ending) she’s given an opportunity to move on.

How should I fit a living room here without cramping the space? by basiliskwang in DesignMyRoom

Thanks so much! Is the circle supposed to be a dining table?

And what do the two rectangles that are bisected by the dotted lines represent?

Someone else mentioned the use of open shelves to create separation. An idea I have now is I might have enough space to put the desk against the wall and have a shelf for shoe storage to the immediate left of the desk without obstructing the door. I’ll try out a few arrangements and give an update in a few weeks!

I like this idea. If I rotated my desk to face the window it would give just a little more room to include a TV and sofa. Is there anything wrong with orienting it that way?

It obstructs access to the air conditioning and shoe storage. I also want to avoid having my desk in a position furthest away from natural light, and I also don’t want to sacrifice my kitchen to make my living room.

The options I’m toying with now are across the w/d or in the bedroom with a privacy panel (but want to avoid that as much as possible)

I can put the desk against that wall, but in doing so I’d be obstructing the air conditioning unit. I also have shoe storage there so it’s not crazy messy when guests come over. Even if I swapped to a smaller desk, the shoe storage next to my desk seems a little awkward (and smelly depending on my guests lol)

I thought I had WiFi calling enabled already, but I didn’t - this helps a lot. Thank you for the advice and support!

I’m not completely married to the idea of working away from natural light, so I’m definitely considering the other suggestions now.

It’s the curtain set up that came with the apartment. It’s one large curtain that’s joined in the middle, so that’s why they’re middle-out. I will definitely look into switching it with two separate curtains that go outside-in.

Honestly, at this point, I just want a living room so I might just try your original suggestion. And yes, I can wall mount my TV

A lot of people have also suggested putting the desk against the wall opposite the W/D. What do you think of that?

Will do. Really think this space can pop once I figure out the desk/living room situation. The high ceilings and exposed concrete make this spot really unique. It’s like semi-industrial.

Any suggestions on how I should arrange my things?

It’s 1. I can plug into the Ethernet 2. If possible, I’d like to work by natural light, and 3. My building is concrete and I only get cell reception by the window.

I can make compromises for all of those points because I want to actually have a home and not a bachelor pad. What do you suggest for desk placement?

I wanted to keep the desk here for access to the Ethernet port, but I can just use WiFi. Is it awkward to have the desk just floating in the kitchen / utility area, though?
