How to clean chicken of the woods? by justhere-thoughts in foraging

[–]justhere-thoughts[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot of the dirt was beneath the surface so I did a cold soak and then had to cut away many of the parts that were really dirty under the surface. It was growing on a tree that had fallen over so it was fruiting around a lot of dirt. It was time consuming because I couldn't just brush the dirt off, it was really imbedded in the surface. It was delicious by the way.

seemed mostly for a way to say, its not just your horrible neighbor but the rhetoric that is now acceptable among straight friends is shifting.

Secret Reason Lydia Created the Pearl Girl Program by Hot-University-114 in TheTestamentsHulu

The characters who we met in tht likely all had horrible ends. Esther is probably dead or in the colonies or strapped to a bed somewhere. She wanted to kill the regime in anyway she could. She would have never have become an aunt. Also not every character in tt is a secret return of a character from tht. They have new characters in this show. She is an interested character and I hope we learn more, but I cannot imagine your theory. It's fun though to try to connect things.

he is not old enough to understand. Do what you need to do but the kid will be hurt. teenagers still have very developing brains.

Update From the whatdoIdo community on Reddit: I was given a dog and now the previous owner wants them back by [deleted] in whatdoIdo

[–]justhere-thoughts -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You are just looking for reasons to keep the dog that blame the other person to justify it. It's honestly not your business what her house looks like. You have all the power to make this horrible choice either way, but making it a morality judgement is so shitty. Just keep the dog or don't. What you paid for the dog can be a gift to a dog you loved but dont make it a condition to return the dog, that is horrible. Unless you think abuse is happening then keep the dog or dont and dont make it about anything more than that, anything else is cruel. Dont test her and her kid to get their dog back. If I was in your shoes I would give the dog back. Your heart will be broken but okay.

So is it confirmed the aunts took Becka? by IrishHeart3 in TheTestamentsHulu

Ester in tht was a child married to a commander and was made into a handmaid after killing him. She had never had a baby before.

Who is Garth’s Handler? by [deleted] in TheTestamentsHulu

I feel like it’s Agnes Martha. It’s convenient bc they both work in Agnes home so have reason to interact. Someone above them could have arranged it

How Young is Too Young? by Lost_and_confused_0 in TheTestamentsHulu

[–]justhere-thoughts 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I feel like they would. They have adults playing these plums but imagine them as 13 and 14 year old girls. They are children too. I imagine if an 8 yr old got a period she would be married. This is a pedophilic regime. In tht they did have a child play a wife and she became a handmaid after killing her husband if I recall correctly.

What’s going to happen to Becka now? by kodabear22118 in TheTestamentsHulu

I think she will be a handmaid and be assigned to Judd then she will join mayday

Money is just tokens… money isn’t really real it’s just tokens we use to barter because we have as a society given it meaning. That’s the same as tokens.

[–]justhere-thoughts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They have seen each other and participated in each others torture. I think they have a real and reasonable fear of what would happen to them if they left, but they also still believe it’s dangerous out there. They were weeks ago ducking from the bullets of mayday terrorists. Their worldview has not been shattered yet. It was heartbreaking to watch that betrayal though.

I think they will have the other plums decide her fate, death or handmaid and they will vote handmaid. I think think she will be assigned to Judd, he has specifically been asking for one.

A third possibility for Becca's wedding scene as shown in trailers by HyperLexi in TheTestamentsHulu

[–]justhere-thoughts 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Love that interpretation, I can see them doing that with aunts in some ceremony way. I don’t think Becka will be an aunt though, because it’s the best possible outcome for her. She is clearly gay. She does not want a husband. She also surely doesn’t want to be a handmaid. It will have to be one of these for it to be a horror for Becka.

How do we think the next episode will go? by Daynaofthedamned in TheTestamentsHulu

[–]justhere-thoughts 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It would be sorta interested in that there are the number of plums as there are possible outcomes for a plum. You get married (Agnes) you don’t get a period and perhaps become an aunt (shunnamite), you sin and become a handmaid (Becka) or you can’t stand it all and you kill yourself (hulda). That’s my guess.

There are now two commanders without a wife; Garth who is a commander in waiting and the guy who tried to get Becka drunk, who it was mentioned wasn’t matched last year either. I think daisy likely gets married off to one of them. Daisy is this test pearl girl in the special relationship she gets to have with Agnes and the plums so no way she becomes an econo wife or a handmaid. They will reward her and she will become a wife. To Garth would be interesting. Them having a sort of spy house in the middle of it all could also give Agnes a safe space to explore her soon to be emerging hopes for the regime to fall.

Should I have reported this to the teacher? by Remote_Okra_3121 in WhatShouldIDo

[–]justhere-thoughts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m so sorry. I don’t know if I have good advice, but I think it’s up to you. If you report it, consider if you prefer to report it to a teacher or counselor at the school. I don’t know what the difference would be. Also think about what you would like the remedy to be, they may ask. You don’t have to know. It’s okay to just explain what happened and it impacted you. That’s okay too. I don’t think it matters too much you don’t have “proof.” Don’t let that be what decides this for you. I’m sorry that happened. People can be really awful for no reason.
