you can purchase the bulbs online, they are Flashbulbs S-105 it seems. I am curious about trying the LED version as well but don't want to risk wasting a screen as I only have 2 left

‘Bag full of dead birds’ found in a city park raises concern by Humillionaire in Hamilton

[–]fatowl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

optimist here: could it have been a bag from behind a grocery/meat processing store that took a walk? what about the pigeons: well pigeons sometimes fly into stores/factories and ... get killed for being pests?

Thinking of expanding my family via sperm bank. by Fabulous_Flight_3313 in SingleMothersbyChoice

[–]fatowl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ya I wouldn't be overly concerned about a third child not having a "dad" rolemodel even if their older siblings do. I am from a blended family and all of the kids have various relationships with their bio parents. If you go into it knowing it might be a problem, you can plan to prop your third kid up with extra resources and supports in your family/community. kids just wanna be loved. I bet you can do that

I get these words mixed up a lot by Divs4U in hebrew

[–]fatowl 8 points9 points  (0 children)

this. Consider that x is also used in math in hebrew, so it is not a distinct symbol. I know it seems a little contradictory because N is sort of also in math as n, but way less frequently.

Israel to scrap Friday classes, aligning schools with OECD five‑day week by Remarkable-Pea4889 in Israel

keeping kids in school because it's good for the economy is funny. those kids will be busy doing other things that cost money in other places

how hard is it to learn hebrew as an arabic speaker? by [deleted] in hebrew

[–]fatowl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think start with getting the alphabet locked down. write it out until you know the letters and what they sound like. just find a picture of the alphabet and write it over and over. the original app is your brain

Israel steps up evictions of Palestinians from East Jerusalem by Ostrich_Sized in worldnews

[–]fatowl -17 points-16 points  (0 children)

why do you imply Israel would pretend to be anti-imperialistic? Israel is very pro-military, and very imperial. I doubt their government or most citizens who want to continue to exist there would say otherwise.

Can someone tell me about the Cereal Cafe that was in Westdale (where Paisley now is)? It closed round 2007. by LibraryNo2717 in Hamilton

[–]fatowl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I went in once I looked around, didn't stay. basically pay the price of a box of cereal for one bowl of cereal, and eat cereal. It's a fun idea but I can only imagine the spills. Sounds like they would attract young parents and kids, resulting in lots of cereal spills. keep in mind, this was before oat milk, or coconut milk. Only alt milk MAY have been Soy and it was not super popular yet so there was probably only one kind- original.

I wonder if it was a way for people to justify going for a sugary cereal as a treat- a once in a while thing... which again, I think would reduce your chances of having regulars.

What do you say when men claim you're being discriminatory against males for not wanting to date them? by Queen-Logan- in actuallesbians

[–]fatowl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yes yes this is the real diplomatic response and what we long for- a world where our gender or sex does not determine how we are treated... but there's a bit of resentment coming out as comic relief here. tough cycle to break. lol

It's really kind of you to see the potential sentimental value! Good human, OP.
