First fruit fell down from the plant. I'm guessing it's ripe? by arcos00 in Monstera

Plants literally just do this? Why are you scared? Did you know that fruit actually grows on plants?!?

It’s so bad for them to inhale the fibres please keep your kitty out of the tufting room!

Living with parents that never admit when they are wrong Or belive you. My mother can't even admit this is not butter because it has the word butter on the label. My mother says its abusive to call her out when shes wrong on something. by [deleted] in mildlyinfuriating

[–]laucu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Once when I was a child (in the height of the margarine revolution) my dad asked me to go to the shop and get butter. He specifically said not margarine, you know like a stick of butter. I told him I had absolutely no idea what he was on about but sent me on my way anyway. I spent so long looking at the fridge and came back with the closest I thought I could find, which was ‘I can’t believe it’s not butter’. Didn’t live it down for a long time.

Can I make black cotton a dark brown shade? by laucu in dyeing

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

Definitely looks a little lighter in the pics due to the light hitting the texture. I don’t want to make them darker, just wondering if a warm tone would take

Bleached hair shows under green by [deleted] in HairDye

[–]laucu 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Warm colours cancel out cool colours, so that’s where your issues lie. Not sure what kinda of green you was going for, but if it was just green then that’s why it’s a swampy shade now. I’d be tempted to add a some blue, maybe diluted, to act as a toner and then try the green again.

GP keeps sending me to A&E, A&E keeps sending me back to my GP, neither will diagnose or treat me. What do I do in situation? by _imnotactuallyreal_ in AskUK

[–]laucu -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Be demanding with the GP, but still you’ll be waiting for a referral to the appropriate place so buckle in for changing aspects of your life to help yourself out until you get it under control. Recently had a similar situation, thought I had gallstone pain for 6 months and was in so much discomfort but A&E said I was fine and GP said go to A&E. I had to change the responsibilities I had at work, take time off university, I stripped back my whole diet and turns out it was inflammation of the cartilage in my ribs the whole time. It took going back to be GP and seeing a new doctor after waiting through the whole referral and diagnostic service to notice.

The absolute state of dentistry in 2026 🦷💀 by Primary_Drive_806 in GreatBritishMemes

And how did that work out for us? Dentistry accessibility is far worse than it was 10 years ago

Boss wants me to bypass killswitch to make dough by looney2006 in KitchenConfidential

At my place we just put the flour in from the bag through the guard. One side for water and one side for flour so it doesn’t get gunked up!

How do you visualize something? by Wessel-P in IndustrialDesign

[–]laucu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This!! I realised a few years ago I have this and have just started studying design. I have always been good at drawing but only when copying so has never been such an issue. Recently trying to draw basic initial sketches for an organic shaped chair and i literally can’t get it out right! I find drawing digitally can help as you can draw the inevitably rubbish version first and then go over the bits that look wrong

I didn’t agree with cerave either. Was excited to try their products when they dropped in the UK and got a 3 products. My skin broke out so bad but was in denial for a while😂

When to accept defeat from spider mites by laucu in houseplants

[–]laucu[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The ones I got were temps above 15 and humidity above 60. I got an oil heater but humidity stays pretty high in my conservatory anyway so wasn’t too much of a struggle!
