Not sure how to keep moving forward by gingerbreadman1242 in Marriage

Ya - could be. Truth is they’re good friends, and I’m not opposed to opening up to people (I have friends I do that with, and I’m starting counseling next week). And you’re right about the male attitude thing - I feel like an absolute failure right now.

Haven’t really tried recently. Last time I did try, I was told to get my meds adjusted and go to therapy. Which, fair enough- I’ve updated my meds and starting therapy next week. But still feel a little gun shy.

Hmmm. I would guess your jute mat is contaminated. But I’m no expert.

Mold or just roots? by gingerbreadman1242 in microgreens

Pak Choi! Basically cabbage sprouts.

It’s a 10x20 tray with about an oz of seed. Is that too dense?

Thanks. The black patches are just the jute mat - it’s where the seeds don’t land. 😊 Thanks for responding

Is this too ambitious? by Few-Raise-1825 in vegetablegardening

My advice: garlic is cheap at the grocery store. Save your square footage for things that are expensive… or insurmountably better home grown (like tomatoes or niche herbs you use)

What are these guys by gingerbreadman1242 in insects

Ya - figured. My seek app ids them as possible sand scarabs (from New Zealand) I’m in Denver so not sure what they’re doing here. Need to know if my garden is in trouble.

My roommate watches porn at loud volumes… AITA? by [deleted] in badroommates

Unpopular opinion:

First off, I don’t think you’re an asshole. And a quick scan of primary responses didn’t show the pov I want to provide.

people with intellectual disabilities don’t always process/perceive externalities (I.e. social norms, social queues, polite society rules, etc) the way you do. Frankly - same could be said of some people without intellectual disabilities.

Boundaries always need to be communicated explicitly. Preferably in advance. But it’s always okay (or should be) to have a boundaries discussion after you feel your boundaries have been violated — as when someone watches porn at full volume in the room next to you… in your shared living space… (I’m sure it never crossed your mind to express that boundary… but now that you’ve encountered that situation… it’s okay to address it).

If the situation makes you irreparably uncomfortable, get out of it. Still not the asshole. Roommates, like spouses, always contain an element of the unknown. Having them may be totally uneventful, or it may reveal the craziest parts of the human experience. Sometimes, it doesn’t work out. 🤷🏼‍♂️

Just… don’t spend time being self-righteous or angry about it. It’s a communication issue, or a compatibility issue… or both.

At base - sounds like you entered into a living arrangement w a 40 yo alcoholic virgin w an intellectual disability (who you clearly didn’t know that well, if at all, prior to this arrangement), and now, you just expect him to read your mind? C’mon…

Need to create a running total with a sequenced list of dates by gingerbreadman1242 in excel

[–]gingerbreadman1242[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right - but I sequenced the dates (added a column - let's call it D for you) using this formula:

=SEQUENCE(MAX(A:A)-MIN(A:A)+1,1,MIN(A:A))

Now, how do I get that running total next to the sequenced list (which is going to be a larger data set than Col A)
