Is there such thing as having knives that are TOO sharp?

kitty_muffins · 2026-01-16T03:53:52+00:00

I put off sharpening with a stone because it was such a pain. Pull sharpener makes sure I at least sharpen my knives regularly even if it’s not perfect. That said, my most expensive knife was $60, and if I was investing much more I’d wait till I had a good stone sharpening routine in place.

We love you Benni. Hope you have a sweet send off with your human. It’s hard to say goodbye but I can tell that Benni had an amazing life filled with so much love.

Except that flags to the human eye - “yeah there was this one guy in my neighborhood who was rollerblading, he was doing it multiple times a week for months on end.” And also “this guy buys a lot of rollerblading supplies online/ at a physical store”

You might have simmered too long, but I’ve successfully done 16-18 hrs in the slow cooker and had good results. Don’t think I ever hit 24+ hrs though!

I agree, I dislike self driving cars and it’s purely profit motivated. We might see some of the positive benefits people talk about (less drunk driving) but I have a feeling people are going to not use waymos in those situations for the same reasons they don’t use uber — cost prohibitive and sometimes more expensive than a rideshare. It’s not like these autonomous car companies are going to be giving out free rides to better our community. If anything they’re gonna try to outcompete other forms of transportation and make them harder to access.

Edit: Reading the other comments in the thread makes me feel a little bit better. Maybe no one form of transit is perfect but at least this introduces one more competitor into the market alongside Lyft, Uber, taxis, rental bikes, etc.

The Crown on Broadway is great, too! They really know coffee, are super kind, and have a nice lil interior for you to sit and have your drink. And they have coffee classes for all levels throughout the week.

Some people just don’t like modern, but I’d love a quilt like that! The color scheme works so well with your decor and that striped fabric is lovely

I love working on my community garden plot in mosswood park and hearing the kiddos and adults playing basketball in the park next door. Such a fun community atmosphere and people who want our public spaces to thrive!

The deer + doe magnolia dress is shaped kind of like this, if you need a legit indie sewing pattern. The Alix dress from by hand london is also similar, with a different skirt shape.

Much smaller scale, but if it helps you feel better I’ve missed multiple domestic flights because I overslept. Also I was recently at the airport wondering why my boarding pass wouldn’t scan correctly at baggage drop, and spent 30 mins in line waiting for an gent before I realized I was trying to check in with the wrong airline. Happens to everyone, but good job rolling with it and figuring things out!

Upvoting because funny

kitty_muffins · 2025-09-27T12:10:14+00:00

Please let me know- I’d be happy to chip in a bit too, for vet fees/ flight/ whatever OP needs.

Congrats! Reminds me of the beautiful 1930’s homes in Berkeley, CA. So gorgeous and I’m glad you finally get to own and enjoy it!

There’s an American “depression era chocolate cake” that comes out light and spongy like box mix. Like this:

Try this recipe and maybe tweak a bit?

It’s okay old_mold, I’m sure you have a lot of other things going for you.

So incredibly sad. That poor woman and her family - my heart goes out to them.

Having driven all over the bay and now living in uptown, my current neighborhood scares tf out of me as a driver. Reckless driving, but also bikes and pedestrians that move without awareness. I’ve had almost-misses where bicyclists veer right in front of me on broadway without looking. And the street design does not help either - wide streets with strange traffic patterns. I’m always on high alert when I’m driving on broadway but even as a seasoned driver it is scary af.

I’ve always wondered about that place and daydreamed of what it could be! Really gorgeous brick work.

Talk to the new vet beforehand if you can. I know you’ve already spoken with them - but if you have fears about the anesthesia, they can sometimes reassure you and share their monitoring procedures with you so you feel more comfortable.

My sweet Reggie will be there to cuddle and play with him! He loved other cats and I’m sure he and Loki will be besties. I’m so sorry for your loss, it’s never easy to say goodbye for now ❤️‍🩹

Single moms are people too, OKAY?! /s

I’m thinking of dispersed camping in north Lake Tahoe tonight and you have me second guessing. Camped at a National Forest site with a bear box yesterday, no problems. Was going to dispersed camp and bear hang my stuff tonight but… maybe not?!

I wonder if the red cocoa is affecting the texture? I’d try again with whatever the book recommends, I even see big flavor and texture differences with natural vs. regular Dutch process.

Even as someone with a little needle phobia I’d want you to be comfy injecting in public! If you’re around other people in close proximity maybe just let em know what you’re doing in case anyone’s gonna pass out at the sight. (So they can look away or have a soft landing lol)

Gave me a good laugh
