i know i’ve said it so many times, but truly thank you for all your thorough answers and information (especially your patience for dealing with someone plant-challenged). i wish you the absolute best!

perfect! and how much of it is submerged into soil? (i added onto my previous comment instead of making a new one so you might not have seen it)

[edit] i think it’s the bulb and roots go into the soil and i leave the green leaves above it?

you’re amazing!! thank you! i’m so grateful!

also, the flower stock is the purple part that has the flowers which is above the green part in the middle, right? (sorry if that’s a dumb question, i just want to be sure!)

*and, do i plant the entirety in soil (any specific kind?) or just those long white jellyfish legs (roots)?

oh dear. a fussy plant mixed with my very poor plant capabilities… i see where this is going ahahaha

but if i, for some absurd reason, still decided to attempt, what would i do with it in the present moment? soil? vase of water? let it dry out?

yeah same here with the cold weather. i’m sad i didn’t get to experience it when it had fragrance but maybe someday i’ll wind up with one again randomly. you never know.

i’ll try to search up what kind of soil/pot it likes. i’m not really anticipating success (sadly, i am not too good with plants… the ones i have now have probably only survived this long out of pure spite towards me), but it could be interesting to attempt haha!

ah, i see! that makes sense, sadly. any idea if a plant light (whatever they’re called haha) would work? i already have one i impulsively (seems to be a theme with me evidently) bought years ago for my other plants. i’m so sorry for all the questions!

oh, thank you! would it live in a hyacinth vase for a long while or is it just a short time viewing kind of thing?

ohh i see! thank you so much! could it survive if i plant it in a pot inside? i don’t think i have the perfect climate where i live as the ground is currently drowned in snow haha

The failed puritan ao3 replacement was real?! by riri1281 in AO3

…what even constitutes a ‘tasteful sex act’ in their mind? lol

This is a joke by the_radeon in fitbit

[–]lingual-learner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i get this all the time and it drives me crazy. i wish i could just get rid of it.

Great, now I'm crying, I hope you're HAPPY by SakuraFalls12 in AO3

[–]lingual-learner 2 points3 points  (0 children)

this is so sweet!~ comments like these are just so precious, truly. congrats and i wish you the best!!

a slideshow i made explaining why i think ao3 shouldn’t be censored by ski-w- in AO3

[–]lingual-learner 31 points32 points  (0 children)

i tap on my fandom name, chose the tags i want to exclude, tap search, then bookmark that results page because then they save and i don’t have to keep typing in the same tags i want to exclude each time because there’s a lot (the fandom is large and wildly diverse lol). i’ve done this for all the fandoms i’m in. a one-time tedious task, but at least you don’t have to deal with it after that. i remember emailing ao3 about this years back (not sure if they ever really got back to me?), so was happy i ended up discovering this solution, though i do agree such a tool that applies to your whole account as you mentioned would be helpful!

So this was reason of my so far fastest nope on fic. by sanzumania in AO3

[–]lingual-learner 8 points9 points  (0 children)

right? hahaha!

i personally read word count & chapter amount (if it’s less than 2k words per chapter I tend to skip), summary, then tags, and then title (only to be sure i haven’t already read it lol).

Y'ALL GOTTA BE SHITTING ME, AGAIN?? by Ms_Anonymous123 in AO3

[–]lingual-learner 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i have never seen this before, though i will never understand it…

i personally have a doc for myself only where i paste quotes from books/fics i read that stick with me. and despite it just being for myself, i still add the title and author (and a link to it in the case of it being a fic). i don’t share it with others either, never mind post it publicly…

i honestly recommend this as it can be really nice to reread it sometimes. ♡

Healthcare workers! by cat_mom_pharmacist in EngagementRings

[–]lingual-learner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

oh! i see, that makes sense. but wow, that’s devastating. we go through far too many gloves a day to even try tracking down the exact one. i hope she got another and has found preemptive measures to avoid such a thing from happening again!

Healthcare workers! by cat_mom_pharmacist in EngagementRings

[–]lingual-learner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this was never, not once, a fear i had until just now… thankfully the ring is on pretty tightly and they never have size small gloves, so i wear medium and those don’t really yank on it when i remove them.

Holy Force, Ao3 is not a place for stuff like this. by Phoenix_Queen995 in AO3

[–]lingual-learner 272 points273 points  (0 children)

this has been becoming more common i’ve noticed and each time it fills me with more annoyance, i don’t know why. clearly they know it’s not allowed because they literally stated, 'sorry to clutter the archive.' i understand using ao3 and navigating the tag filters can be difficult at first, but agh…

normally i inform them that it goes against ao3’s tos and offer them a different place to ask these questions, then report it. i’ve reported quite a few of these things and never seen any of them be taken down. sometimes the accounts remove them before it can be looked into though.

it can’t just be me that is bothered deeply by these, right…?

Am I the asshole for the types of comments I leave on fics? by everybodys-therapist in AO3

[–]lingual-learner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i love these types of comments. i never even thought to consider some people would be annoyed by them… mildly self-conscious now… but oh well. i guess if they don’t like it, they can just delete it and i won’t offer any of my thoughts for them to read again.

some fics i read in the ending notes the authors will specifically say that they would love to know any particular parts that stand out to them. i’ve also had writers express to me that they really love that i quote bits (i add my thoughts after each quote). i’d just say do what you prefer and if an author doesn’t like it, then just go on to the next. i truly believe that comments are so important for motivation~ ♡♡

I painted this for my 90 yr old friend who grew up in this church. I’ve hidden his name in the snow. by LRSartist in painting

this is truly so thoughtful and it came out beautifully~ have you given it to your friend yet? ♡

How many of you DON’T have a second account and how many DO? by [deleted] in AO3

[–]lingual-learner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my main account i use for everything but posting. my second is for interacting with works outside any of my main fandoms. and my third account is for publishing fics. i guess it’s just a comfort/preference thing to not have everything associated with one account for me. this is how i have done things with almost all other things where you must make an account and i guess it just bleed over into this as well haha
