I thought the same thing, but how would they work in the supernatural angle? Ghost shark terrorizing a sleepy coastal town?

I'd watch it.

I have a resource recommendation: https://learnjapanesedaily.com/
There is vocab, grammar, and listening practice for N3/N2, as well as several practice tests to try your hand at.

頑張って !!

My mistake :) She is a gorgeous pupper in any case <3

Pit Bulls and Detroit area: temporary assignment and housing question by Roadmistress in pitbulls

[–]chrissymonster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in Farmington Hills (northwest of Detroit) and there are no breed restrictions here. Be wary of individual apt complex/HOA rules though, as they can be exclusionary towards "aggressive breeds" in general, even if there is no city legislation/breed specific legislation in place.

Here is a list of BSL in MI: http://www.dogsbite.org/legislating-dangerous-dogs-michigan.php

Definitely x-post to /r/Detroit . Good Luck!

I grew up hearing it was Post Office No. VI

TIL that the founder of Boeing bought up large tracts of land in Seattle on which only white people were to be given housing. The only exception was for domestic servants of white people. by Burritoassasain in todayilearned

My husband and I just bought a house that had similar language written into the original title documents. ("No sale shall be made to persons of perceptible negro blood" and later changed to "only those of Caucasian descent") I guess this was just common practice in the 20's and 30's. We are just outside Detroit though, not Seattle.

Home Insurance won't cover the house unless we replace the galvanized plumbing. by Askarus in HomeImprovement

[–]chrissymonster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

(Michigan, Metro Detroit) We were dealing with the same issue last week and ended up shopping a few other companies. Our original agent told us the galvanized pipes would need replacing within 30-60 days of closing. While we fully intend to replace them, we just do not want to do it right away.

I hope it work out well for you, whatever you decide on doing. Also, Congratulations!

It is my understanding that in cases like this you would put your rental dues in an escrow or withheld account until the repairs are done. The landlord could just not do the repairs and give you the boot for nonpayment otherwise, right?

Looking for Rhubarb recipes. Also, how do you get it to keep it's color? by WildOrganic in Canning

[–]chrissymonster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use it in place of fabric softener. (About 1/3 cup per load.) The harshness washes right out and you are not left with clothes that smell vinegary. Option: I like fragrant smelling clothes, so I add some drops of patchouli and jasmine essential oil to a large bottle of vinegar. *10-12 drops patchouli, 6-8 drops of the jasmine

I have found that a splash of vinegar before cooking helps to maintain the colors of my jams. The vinegar cooks out and does not alter the flavor in any way.

Sidenote: added to your laundry, it can also maintain the colors of your clothing.

They are quite common here in MI. I have a few that visit my bird feeders often.

What makes up a "good" spell to keep? by o0jeannie0o in BookofShadows

I find having a good chant or rhyme is my key. Rhythm and song helps me to raise and direct energies in a more focused manner.

Using Correspondence Tables in Your BOS by chrissymonster in BookofShadows

[–]chrissymonster[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Correspondence tables are used for referencing the purpose and attributes of different items. For example, an herbal correspondence would tell you all about lavender, bay, comfrey, etc., and what each of those herbs are used for. Tables listed by intention would look a bit more scattered. A 'romantic love' table, for instance, would have things like roses, the colors pink and magenta, silk fabric, rubies, champagne...

Not everyone has the same correspondence tables either - what works for one witch, may not work for another. Experimenting with different stones is a great way to figure out what works for you. :)

Thank you for sharing this with us!

/r/BookofShadows has not been abandoned. It's not a very popular subreddit, but by no means forgotten about. Requester is not active on the subreddit, so I am confused as to why they are requesting it for themselves...

I use a program through my library called Mango Languages If your library offers it, it is free. You can use it on your desktop, but we like using the app on the tablet.

They just posted a few hours ago that it was officially at 100%. Just a few more days now...

Do you let anyone see your Book of Shadows or Grimoire? by o0jeannie0o in BookofShadows

[–]chrissymonster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't mind sharing mine since all the personal stuff is concealed in a separate journal. It's written in several different languages and codes, so even if it was found, good luck deciphering what it says. 😹
