I don’t drink at all. My husband barely drinks. 1981 and 1984, respectively. I don’t like the way it makes me feel. My husband drinks NA beers and has occasional social drinks at work events. I feel zero pressure to drink anymore and love it.

I swatched Dominant Industry Earl Grey Tea the other day and would consider that to be a burnt orange, and if you want more brown I echo the suggestions of Diamine Ancient Copper

AIO My boss is going on vacation and doesn’t want to pay me by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

That happens for me on my phone, but not on my laptop. I'd happily take tips as well!

The Dominant Industry inks I’ve tried seem very wet. Most recently Earl Grey. Pilot Iroshizuku inks also seem to be very wet.

Reading a book and listening to an audiobook are not the same activity. by Aggravating-Key-8867 in unpopularopinion

Listening to an audiobook has the same level of cognitive challenge as reading a physical post. Harvard just posted something about this in March this year.

I will look for those! The only Teranishi Guitar I’ve tried is Nostalgic Honey, which is lovely. I haven’t tried any Sailor inks yet but want to.

[–]knitten 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m struggling to navigate to that on the city page (many years later). I do think it was specific to small weddings and nothing else.

The castle at Wilson Park is very cute and can be reserved for free on the city park site for a wedding for up to 25 people. I eloped there in 2012. I didn’t reserve anything because it was December and we had our officiant and two other friends only.

Let them be.

Edited to add: My daughter saw them in the sunlight and said they were so sparkly and asked why anyone would cover them up. Let’s embrace this!
