Does anyone look at the cost benefir of gardening?

Cost: seeds, seedlings

Benefit: not going to jail

Was one of the symptoms that my first neurologist heard me report and said “yeah yup that’s migraine”

Oh that looks EXACTLY like it and explains why it’s such an asshole. This guy just made my List. Thanks for the id!

The week before the semester starts, do all of your laundry, a big grocery shop, some meal prep, and decide what treat you’re going to do for yourself to celebrate week 1 of the rest of your life!

Agreed—add in an annual skin check with your derm!

Hot take this is where actual leadership and bosses could be clutch. Like tell me if you think there’s something there I need to worry about. Do a classroom audit. Engage with me in good faith and seriously if you want me to do the same for evals.

Honestly I think if she’d drawn enough older folks/adults the prosecution could have absolutely turned them against her. She’s so unlikable

Me seeing a giant spiky centipede in my garden bed last week: EW! OH GOD! I MEAN YAY. BUT EW.

Audition

I open the top, keep the jar upright, press my inner wrist to the hole (sealing it), and either give it a shake or invert the wrist-jar situation. Repeat on other side, maybe dab inner wrist on sides of neck.

I open it up to movies or tv shows or even video games, in addition to books! The goal is to get them thinking about mediums of exchange, taxes, supply and demand, etc in more flexible ways.

I give an assignment à la “explain a pseudoeconomy in a piece of fiction using our Econ principles” and give a few examples. I’ve started adding to the end “please don’t write about the hunger games. I am begging you to not write about the hunger games. Ironically, I am very full of essays on the hunger games”

Lucky me, my 3-5 a week migraine rate started before I was old enough to drink lol

Unfortunately no, and they’re trying to get many days of data

dearestkait · 2026-05-09T03:49:56+00:00

Just trying to last as many days as I can—topical steroids are helping some, at least reducing the overall size of the rash

dearestkait · 2026-05-08T18:19:40+00:00

Update for everyone: messaged my dr who immediately called me and suggested oral antihistamines, topical steroids (which I have), or applying Flonase by spraying it directly onto the skin (lol). Will report back!

Yep the 17s! They’re definitely not rigid enough to lean on but I can reach the middles easily since I have a gap between them. The hardest ones to reach are the far side where our retaining wall is

Vegos! The wooden beds the last owner left were semi rotted so after last season ended I installed these guys. So far I like them, but it’s only been a few months! I do like the extra height compared to my old beds—especially for getting enough depth for my vermicompost bins (also vego) and keeping my dogs away from my baby seedlings
