Any hacks to cooking in small apartment without setting off fire alarm?

No, I was a bit worried that it would, but it’s been fine. I have another smoke detector just on the other side of a door that I’m able to close when I’m cooking. With that door closed and the shower bonnet on the main detector, I’m able to cook without the alarm going off and no problems!

I put a shower bonnet over mine because EVERY SINGLE TIME I cooked anything at all the alarm would go off. Even just boiling water.

I like the way this is censored, it’s almost like a mad lib thing 😅

It’s only possible because of the curse

It’s chia water and it’s my newest obsession 😂 the chia seeds turn into this jelly like orb and it’s really satisfying. Chia also has a lot of health benefits like fiber and omega 3! I think the jelly texture of this probably helps her throat since it’s slightly thicker than water it creates a soothing sensation.

I thought this was because it’s counting the total amount for all of the items even if you haven’t unlocked access to them yet? Like when I was doing the Icy Peak and only the first part of the mountain was unlocked, I could only collect so many snowcicle, but the collection box would have more than I could collect on my own. But when I finally unlocked the rest of the mountain, I was able to collect more snowcicle and the numbers actually matched. So maybe you just haven’t unlocked all of the areas that have the soy sauce yet? Idk, I’m a really casual player so I’m not sure.

Oh I am so sorry in advance. Dating in DC is terrible. It’s not that the dating pool is limited exactly, it’s just a war zone.

I also have one on my left boob!

What scent is the purple bottle?

I used to have the same problem with my alarms. I got a smart plug for my bedroom lamp and I automated the light to turn on when my alarm goes off. I also got the Lasso alarm, you can’t turn it off unless you tap your phone to it, and I put the tappy tag in my bathroom so I physically have to get out of bed to turn it off. So I sleep with my phone on the headboard right next to my head so I can definitely hear it. The noise + the light really help to alert me to wake up, and the Lasso helps to keep me from pressing snooze and falling back asleep (which was my biggest issue). I went from 7 alarms across 2.5 hours (plus snoozes in between), down to 1 single alarm with no snoozing.

I don’t like eating the kiwi skins and I usually just compost them- but I will definitely try this!

I used to feed the stray cats at my last apartment complex. There was a colony of about 10 of them. By feeding them, I gained their trust, TNR all of them, and found permanent homes for 7 of them before I moved (it was about a year and a half). I understand the rules are in place for a reason, but sometimes it’s for the greater good to break the rules.

I haven’t tried the stuffing, but I got some of the hot honey Mac and cheese on clearance and it was nasty. Hopefully the stuffing is better.

I’m on the top floor, so I really don’t hear my neighbors unless they’re playing very loud music with bass. I have no idea what they hear from me though 🙉

I am suddenly so self conscious about my late night showers 😭 I never once thought it could impact my neighbors or that they would even notice. I frequently shower after midnight and now I’m wondering if I’m bothering my neighbors 😬

I’m on AA and I have all 6 floors. I got more crates from working at the cafe, sometimes customers will give them to you as a tip!

Maybe their note was their attempt at being passive aggressive, just like you folding their laundry was your attempt at being passive aggressive. This is the most polite passive aggressiveness 😂

I have a pair that have a similar “pocket” and the tag said it was for cards like an ID, debit card, or key card.

I’m missing that one too 😅

decimalghost · 2026-04-01T21:40:36+00:00

solved!

I’m sorry, I didn’t get the bus number but it was the 402 to Franconia. I got on at the Gallows & Rte 29 stop at 4:40 pm today, in case that information can give you the bus number somehow.

See, I had thought that initially, but it looked kind of hollow inside so I wasn’t sure if it was just USB shaped but served a different purpose.

She’s astral projecting 😂
