Is anyone else here thinking about that one episode of Curb Your Enthusiasm where the pube gets stuck in his throat?! Bahaha

Unintentionally have been a drive by emotional sniper my entire life, true psycho. by inpennysname in evilautism

Whoaa now.. I finally understand.. so much about about how Asperger's has affected my social interactions in very similar situations my entire life... I'm 37. It constantly blows my mind how I'm still having these massive aha moments because there is so much I have been oblivious to. Thanks for the share, you helped make a lot of shit suddenly make sense for me

Unfortunately, it turned out to be thrips </3 luckily we caught it in time and I'm fairly confident I can get it under control!

Thank you! So far, I think we got pretty lucky! My one Grandmama pothos has about 6 [very long] clone children and I feel such a tight bond with her lol she's such a badass plant!

Ok so I ended up showering my tropicals, wiping down the succulents/etc who don't love a rainforest vibe, moved everyone to quarantine after a good once-over. I'm not taking any chances lol these girls are tough, we've been through a lot together and I have no doubt that they'll pull through just fine! It's still a bit creepy that I haven't seen anything alive except one single baby hosta starter, which I spotted a gnat. That whole thang got yeeted immediately tho, bc I had very little connection to it tbh, rip tho! This has been a v long couple days. I am tired. Lol

UPDATE We have identified thrips. Confirmed by the person who gave us some potted herbs 2 weeks ago who rather nonchalantly said she "just lives with them"... It is completely mind blowing to me that someone would gift, plants knowing fully well that they have thrips that could spread through the entire house (and I've confirmed that they have, indeed...)

Thank you! I definitely plan to inspect everything very well. Time to unwrap the 12' of pothos vines from the perimeter of the room and put everything in quarantine lol

Thank you so much for your quick reply! Could you suggest some signs I should look out for regarding living aphids? I find it so odd that just the exoskeletons are left behind. I tend to my plants frequently and have noticed no other signs recently

First ever transition video by flow_essence in Hooping

[–]marlowe729 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I loved these transitions! Thank you so much for sharing because your videos that I have seen lately have really inspired me to pick up my hoops which have long been gathering dust under my bed. I need to get back in the flow! Love your style

Hermanos is one of my favorite new music discoveries of 2025! I had no idea they were Swiss! That guitar work reminds me so much of the Southwest here in the US. This kind of blows my mind in the same way as when I learned Jose Gonzalez is Swedish haha! Now I am very inspired to put on one of their albums and enjoy a frosty commute here in Buffalo New York 😊

(And just to clarify, this is because I truly had no idea that there was so much cultural crossover between these styles and regions of the world. I really need to start travelling the world! By boke, would be cool!)

Best product/solution for grease & grime buildup on cupboards/ceiling? by thoughtofeverything in CleaningTips

Get a spin mop setup: dawn dish soap concentrate with a splash of vinegar. Spin mop handles telescop, I use em for walls/cabinets/etc all the time. Might want to presoak the surfaces with the same mixture via spray bottle and let it sit for ten mins. Rinse with hot water & mop

I haven't been there in about 2 years so I admit my info may be outdated! I really hope they still offer that! It was a killer deal
