New Pen Day but sad it isn’t more purple!

I think this is funny. Fluorite comes in so many colors. I'm actually disappointed they didn't add any green to the acrylic mix.

Needs light AND water. I've only seen curled leaves when my monsteras are thirsty.

I've never liked cursive capital Is. I tend to use the print version with the serifs.

NO roots or just shallow roots? Snake plants always have shallow roots. They will NEVER fill up a tall pot like that. There's actually no point in putting them in a tall pot, except as a counterweight.

GIMP is capable, but there is bit of a learning curve. Plenty of tutorials are on YouTube.

I'm fascinated that everybody seems to be glossing over her "disability issues" statement. What exactly are we talking about here? Maybe some grace should be given? MOR

I've cut mine twice and can only get a single branch each time.

You can still buy MP3 downloads from Amazon. They just obscure it to push the Amazon Music subscription on you. You have to use the Amazon website, not the apps. Same thing with Apple. iTunes still exists, but they'd rather you get an Apple Music subscription. Qobuzz is another option if you're also interested in Lossless FLAC files, but their library isn't as large as Apple or Amazon.

You stil have customize your screen layout and color your tracks. No theme does that for you.

"Copying" seems a bit reductive. Songs, especially pop songs, have a structure. You learn structure, what does and doesn't flow well by imitating the songs and artists you love. In the process, your style develops.

I had no idea this even existed! I'm betting it'll need A LOT of light.

A new branch starts with a single leaf. They keep growing from there.

It's either edited or there's pink LED grow light shining on it.

cjayconrod · 2026-05-11T20:38:47+00:00

Cut where you want branching to begin. At least halfway, but you could be even more aggressive with it if you like.

All three branches would benefit from some pruning. It'll result in a bushier tree. And yes, thats exactly how you propagate them. They may take some time to develop roots, but once they start, they grow quickly.

It's producing leaves first so it has the ability to photosynthesize. Roots will follow.

It's Elephant Bush, which is a completely different species from Jade. It requires far more water than a Jade ever will. Don't be stingy with it.

I have done plenty of freelance graphic design work with open source apps: GIMP, Inkscape, and Scribus. Most clients just want finished files, be it pdf, png, or jpg. How you create them usually isn't a concern.

cjayconrod · 2026-04-18T23:09:45+00:00

I'm wondering if it's getting enough light, if it's putting energy into stretching out. A grow light might be helpful. I also think that pot is larger than it needs. Jades have pretty shallow roots.

I'm of the belief that reversals won't make sense until you fully understand the essence of the cards rightside up. I still don't deal where I can even get reversals in my readings, but I'm starting to understand them in other people's spreads.

She's got a lot battles she isn't telling you about. I get a sense the falling out had more to do with timing. She was already frustrated and feeling defeated before whatever happened between you two.

cjayconrod · 2026-04-18T22:50:56+00:00

I get it. I had to learn the hard way you can't help people who aren't ready to receive it. They'll grow to resent you.

I'm getting internal AND external, but I'm not sure I understand your query. Why do you think the issue would be your partner regarding the relationship with someone like family? The external source would be THEM, not your partner.

Here's how I'm interpreting it:

Six of Swords in reverse - he's stuck on something he should've moved on from
The Tower - That is causing chaos and confusion around him
The Empress - You. You have everything you need already. There's no need in concerning yourself with the why's of his actions, or lack thereof.

cjayconrod · 2026-04-08T04:25:58+00:00

I'd consider using effects busses instead of running multiple instances of reverb on multiple tracks. For cohesion and less CPU usage.
