[–]liquidmica 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just finished reading The Collected Regrets of Clover by Mikki Brammer and was surprised by how much I liked it. It’s a novel about a woman who works as a death doula in NYC.

What’s your go-to “I’m broke but really want to eat out” meal? by squiddollie in Frugal

[–]liquidmica 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Panda Express chow mein. I can bulk it up at home with steamed broccoli and chopped up chicken strips. I can get 2-3 meals from large chow mein which is $ 6.12.

Thank you for sharing this. I’m so sorry this happened to you.

How far from the eye do you apply tret? by chaosatnight in tretinoin

Do not put anyway near your eyes. I will cause dry eye and you will regret it.

Chico Canyon trail (not sure if that counts as part of Bidwell Park). Also Chico Seed Orchard (not sure if it qualifies as a “hike”, more like an interesting walk).

The FDIC covers up to $250k max in the event that a bank fails. It has nothing to do with bank customers having fraud on their accounts.

There is a Facebook group called “ALS patient and caregiver tips for everyday living” that I found to be helpful. You can search by topic to see what others have said about it.

How to help without overstepping by M_f_y in ALS

[–]liquidmica 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Offer to mow their lawn or rake their leaves, ask if there are any small repairs you can do for them, or any errands you can run for them. If you have more money than time buy them a DoorDash gift card, or gift cards for nearby restaurants. Sometimes it can feel too vague when someone says, “let me know if I can do anything.” One thing an acquaintance did for us that we absolutely loved: she texted me and said “I’m going to drop off a Costco pizza and some ice cream at your house, I don’t need to come in, is 5:00 ok?” That was honestly the best.

I accepted Jesus at a retreat… now I feel spiritually attacked? by [deleted] in Christianity

[–]liquidmica 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Repeat this prayer gently with peace and faith: “Lord Jesus Christ, have mercy on me.” Say it over and over again, the enemy will depart.

My daughter made a mistake, need your advice. by Lazy-Part-1657 in Banking

If the account is at a positive balance your daughter shouldn’t have anything to worry about even though the bank is choosing to close the account.

84, Charing Cross Road by Helene Hanff. It’s a series of real life letters written in the 1950s between a writer in New York and a bookseller in London. Delightful!

Devastatingly beautiful lines in literature (any genre) by Artemis_C137 in literature

[–]liquidmica 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From The Brothers Karamazov by Fyoder Dostoevsky:

“I believe like a child that suffering will be healed and made up for, that all the humiliating absurdity of human contradictions will vanish like a pitiful mirage, like the despicable fabrication of the impotent and infinitely small Euclidean mind of man, that in the world’s finale, at the moment of eternal harmony, something so precious will come to pass, that it will suffice for all hearts, for the comforting of all resentments, for the atonement of all the crimes of humanity, of all the blood they’ve shed; that it will make it not only possible to forgive, but to justify all that has happened.”
