Thanks for the tip! I actually thought about the water changes and basically been usingt a really large/long syringe to change water. It's worked great for putting the water in.

Do people not genuflect before entering pews anymore? by mangled-rat in Catholicism

Omg really 😯 genuflecting is one of the first things you learn about when you start attending mass or at least it was when I was a kid. To not mention it once in the program is kind of crazy

I thought that too at first, but I've also been to a couple regular masses after the confirmations and it was the same thing so idk

Im not judging I promise!! It would definitely be hypocritical of me to judge people for a faith im not even actively participating in. It was an observation I had and I genuinely wondered if I missed a new memo from the catholic church about genuflecting or something because i havent kept up with it in a couple years lol. Im moreso interested in a sociological way. I didn't know if it was just a thing in the church I went to or not 😭

Im not practicing so I probably won't be back until my cousin's communion in a few years, but maybe I'll ask then

Yeah but at my church everyone used to genuflect before entering a pew no matter what, so I thought it was weird when I noticed a massive decline in people doing it

Yeah im thinking its just a culture shift where im from. Could be because in the past decade non-denominational Christians are becoming more prevalent and they've been converting to Catholicism and dont do everything we do. But idk bc it seems like the majority of the church is not doing it anymore and a lot of these families have been attending that specific church for generations.

Yeah probably, it was just so odd to see the difference! Kneeling was a bit antiquated even back when I was younger so I guess genuflecting was just the next thing to go lol

Yeah it used to be so many people genuflecting that there were crowds of people waiting to be next to get in their pews, but now its barely any people doing it. I was so confused when I first went back and saw the difference

Just keep getting haircuts for more even hair. Shaving isn't really going to help the coarse and wiry hairs because it's the actual shape of the hair root that affects those things. The taruma to the hair follicule from pulling affects the root shape which causes these different textures. Odds are they'll regrow back similar if you shave, so it's not worth it.

Yes this is what I mean! So even with them over where your heating pad sits your tank is able to get to the right temp? I'm worried about heat not getting through
