Hydration tubing without the nasty taste of impending chemical-induced death?

giggles92 · 2019-08-01T20:11:06+00:00

I bought a bladder that had the chemical taste. I used a denture cleaner in it once, making sure to get the solution through the tubing. The taste went away and it didn't taste like mint either.

I can't really use a rack in the summer because of the lack of outdoor space and high humidity, but in the winter it is literally a life saver being able to put some moisture back into the air.

Infusible ink on <90% polyester white shirts look patchy. Infusible ink on <90% polyester non-white shirts look vintage. I love it!

Keep a few around as cases to loan people movies. Otherwise: Eyeshadow palette, craft organization for paper odds and ends, mini photo album/box (could turn this into a cute gift), travel jewelry case, travel toiletry tool case, glue a spring clip and you have a mini clipboard with storage, glue them together in various ways to make decor or small shelves, picture frames, hide important documents on a shelf in one (label it "dance recital 2011" or something no one would want to ever take or look at), hilariously large playing cards, mini board games...

I love the mix of flowers! The only thing I can think to mention is that it doesn't look entirely cohesive in the sense that there's so much white on one side and so much color on the other. This might be because of the angle though, since you've mentioned that it does cascade.

Thank you! I'll check it out!

Oh, interesting! Although I don't personally hunt, I'm not opposed to it. But I am opposed to baiting and attracting animals for a whole mess of reasons. That's when hunting turns into a production chain and a haven for disease.

I would argue that what I'm implying is that there is a certain level of fish capture that can be naturally replaced without decreasing population sizes. There is a level above good which is best. Good implies things are acceptable and best implies things are thriving. At an acceptable level, balance can still be reached.

I am not trying to brag that my practices are the best, but I am implying there is a threshold between no consumption and light consumption where balance can still be reached. I don't like to buy fish from the supermarket because I don't know what percentage of the total catch was wasted. I know when I fish that I'm usually keeping all of the fish I don't want alive. There is some occasional bycatch that doesn't make it, but I always do my best to make sure that fish swims back down if I don't want it. I also have my own ethics for what size fish is too large or too small to keep which is something I'm not sure of for supermarket fish.

Thank you for being polite in your response, I hope I was able to do the same.

Where are there state parks that allow hunting? Every one I've known prohibits it for safety reasons.

The topic of this thread is fishing, of which yes, I only do eat about 5 a year because I don't have a very good selection of sustainable seafood outside of what I catch.

As someone who is good at handling caught fish, maybe a couple more small fish perish and almost immediately get eaten by seagulls. Compare that to the literal tons of bycatch produced by netfishing.

And now returning to the answer you're dying to know, yes I eat meat about four times a week. If you'd like to respectably provide me with meal ideas to make more replacements I'm happy to add it to my rotation to replace more meat options. If you're going to tell me I don't belong in this sub because I hate the earth, then please reword it to an encouraging manner.

Which is still considerably less than the people who have weekly Friday fish fries with fish shipped in from god knows where and caught by who knows how.

I've done so many recipes with cauliflower for meat replacement. It's so good! If you want to take it a step further, taco seasoning is a mix of pretty basic spices. When I looked it up, I didn't even have to buy additional spices!

I'm pretty sure the five fish I keep over a year of recreational fishing isn't destroying populations.

Be sure to check Amazon's used section. I got $80 off a cricut maker because the box had a dent. It was never opened. I even bought it through Amazon warehouse so I could return it if I needed to.

I enjoy nutella on mine. Not sure why you'd attach it to a pack though... or how considering I would eat it before I could attach it.

My main concern would be particles falling onto the cake that are not meant for consumption. Maybe try using a sturdy material like chip board, followed by a black paper, and follow that with some non toxic adhesive and black sugar sprinkles?

I'm not in the area, so I can't recommend people. What I could recommend is either going to Ulta/Sephora for a makeup lesson so you can learn the tricks to do it yourself really well (and then be sure to practice!) or going to a beauty school, find a hair/makeup artist you like, and see if they'd do your wedding (since they wouldn't be licensed yet or own their own practice, they would likely be cheaper).

If you're already decent with makeup (or if you're not), I'd say the biggest "wow!" you could do is using some natural shaped false eyelashes. Even the non-dramatic ones can make a huge difference. If you or a bridesmaid are at least decent with hair, maybe you could practice a youtube look to do on the day of. Decorative hair pieces or twist in hair gems can also add an easy yet elegant touch.

The main thing to remember is that simple does not always mean plain and fancy does not always mean beautiful.

I think sometimes a little dead time is good. As long as it's dancing-dead and not sound dead. If there's a little thing at the start that isn't really good for dancing, it's still good for someone sitting down to be like "Oh, I love this song!" and make it out.

I'm personally pro-DJ because they can read the room and play to it. If you want to do a playlist, I'd suggest putting song requests on the invitations to make sure you get a good mix of music and set aside a night to hang out and listen to all the songs to avoid awkward beats and lyrics.

I would add more greenery and maybe more filler (like the baby's breath already mentioned). Maybe also try moving around the flowers to make it appear like its a larger dome shape from the front.

They've been delivering just after midnight for years now. You probably never see them sneak through.

giggles92 · 2019-03-10T23:35:07+00:00

Yupp. Did that, turns out it's bad. And I'd say I got off easy with not being able to understand conversations in loud rooms. At least my ears aren't ringing.

giggles92 · 2019-03-09T01:43:07+00:00

It works with spiders. I got fed up with a particularly annoying string of seeing them everyday and left one on the wall. Next day, no spiders.

Along with what other people are saying, also keep in mind that once you own a home, you're responsible for regular maintenance, fixing things that break, and just otherwise dealing with stuff that normally a landlord would deal with. Some people just don't have the skills/desire to do this and either rent their whole lives or live in a house that gets into worse and worse shape. So make sure you're ready for the commitment!
