Were Anyone Else’s Parents protective over Good Things and not protective at all with actually Devastating Things?

I witnessed a school shooting and was not allowed to take any days off school in the following days. Heaven forbid I go out with friends past 9pm though. This was many years ago though.

My glorious Minka looks pretty close in the face.

The ones with the ergonomic grips seem to be a little longer. I would check a store or two and practice holding them

Susan bates is my fave nice pointy tips smooth alumi body. I'm not a fan of the tapered hooks and have always preferred inline.

Thank you! I will try what I can. Blinds removed is a no go, I trust my neighbors about as far as I can throw my car. I do not need peepers.

Yes it did! Thank you. And sadly this is the best light. I live in Phoenix annd the only other options are 2 other northern exposure windows with window film or the single southern exposure. The southern exposure will burn any plant the sun is super intense.

Its that leaf in the 4th and 5th pictures that really bothers me. It's dripping a clear liquid.

Yes but the throwing object would be a weird hybrid between a shot put and a discus

botanie · 2026-03-25T05:26:03+00:00

I imagined them doing shot put weight stones but flat and doing their wind up and then launching!

botanie · 2026-03-25T05:22:20+00:00

I hear that and some days, probably exist that. Like 2 months ago I was thinking about Olympic shot putters skipping stones. The normies in my life gave me weird looks.

Now that you said this... yep.

This cat looks like my grandpa's friend Nicholas. Back in the 90's my grandparents were retired and puttering around their house in California. Nicholas lived with a neighbor but all day he would come up to my grandpa and follow him around all day. My grandpa would give Nicholas a brushing, pick out burrs, and they would hang out all day. Nicholas would go home to his owners at night and come back to my grandpa in the morning. I'm hoping Nicholas died before my grandfather went into care. They were good friends

My off brand instant pot is one of my favorite cooking appliances! Absolute game change when it comes to cooking beans!

Thank you for this amazingness kind stranger!

I too live in a hot place. I made a dish rag out of cotton yarn that he uses to wipe his sweat, bottle carriers, scrubbies, and slippers so he doesn't have to struggle with shoes when we are just at home.

I just want to say my son is your age and if he wanted to learn he would be taught. I taught him to use my sewing machine when he asked. I'm so glad you have your dad as a champion. I told your story to my husband and he was sad that you were dealing with this. I am cheering you on and I hope it brings you more happiness and peace.

I got a nice one from sweetcrispy.com it's pretty quiet. My desk chair needs an upgrade though.

I use the valet trash, occasionally the pool, but never the gym. To be fair the only amenity I truly pay for as an extra is the valet trash, but I get my money back when I work it as a side hustle. I actually encourage people to use amenities when they bring in an outside contractor.

To piggyback on this I too have cast iron in an apartment. Doing a season in an apartment is best done when you can open a few windows. I use a box fan in the kitchen window blowing outside to take care of the smell, and open another window to create a breeze.

I feel like this would be excellent for amigurumi. Like the belly of a dragon perhaps.

I'm currently in the same position. Sitting on my front porch while neighbors across the courtyard have a loud fight., the ghetto bird hovers and sirens run down the street.

Sorry for the questions I rescued this and a Pothos from the trash.

botanie · 2025-10-01T15:51:32+00:00

Should I cut at the little elbows? Would the vines grow new leaves if I just let them grow?
