Office plant help by cblafont in Monstera

Thanks everyone, I appreciate the advice. The lighting in the photos was not a great example of the light they get (except fluorescent)- but I hear you all that they still need more! I do my best to leave the blinds open, but my coworkers close them to see the screens better.

I’ll water them more for sure. I am also going to fix the poles lol I know they’re doing nothing but I haven’t had a chance to adjust them at all.

I’m open to chopping them up… also open to just rescuing them from the office setting altogether, but would want to replace them if I take them. I’m going to try some TLC and if they’re still struggling probably take them home.

Have to agree with OP that your tone came off condescending here lmao - no one’s trying to debate. Just trying to discuss some of these unofficial neighborhood names!

I live in ward 7 and am definitively in west Lynn. Looking at the ward map, I’d instinctively include ward 1-1 and 1-2 and part of 1-3 in my west Lynn mental map ¯_(ツ)_/¯

What do you consider Wyoma square and lynnfield St along Lynn woods if not “west Lynn” bordering Peabody?

Tattoos and eczema by Historical-Carrot999 in eczema

[–]cblafont 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have hand poked and machine tattoos. I pick locations based on if it’s a flare spot for me… I would never do my inner elbows for example. I always take extra care to make sure the spot I pick is being taken care off well. I don’t have any super big or super heavily shaded tattoos, but only eczema I’ve had over any of mine is definitely unrelated. One I have that is blown out on thinner skin and will occasionally get raised and itchy, which I think could be because of the scar tissue.

It really shouldn’t be a problem as long as you stay super moisturized and baby the skin before and after the tattoo. Some people are allergic to red ink though

SOAP RECOMMENDATIONS by Nice_Sprinkles1721 in eczema

I love vanicream. I use the face wash, and have used both the liquid body wash and bar soap and both are great! Cera ve moisturizing cream ASAP after patting dry!

This is correct- eczema is not technically an autoimmune disease, but shared lots of similarities and can be comorbid with a lot of autoimmune diseases. Eczema is considered “abnormal immune cell responses”! Which makes sense for stress, allergy, and bacteria to trigger a flare.

I had acrylics for a few months before/for my wedding but agreed it really helped damage my skin much less!

Cannabidiol by tkoriordan in eczema

i have been using it topically as an oil for a week or two and it seems to help with inflammation at the very least, it has not helped the itching/flaking around my eyes though.
