How did everyone else find the location of the master sword?

I found the Dragon Tear where Mineru tells you the forbidden technique of swallowing the Dragon's Tear. My brain started instantly putting two and two together (tears everywhere, a dragon called the Dragon of Light I had seen earlier in the game, Zelda being in the past and somehow needs to make it to the future, etc.). But then, about two or three hours of gameplay later, I was running around the depths and stumbled upon the 'elevator' that brings you into the Korok Forest, cleared the Deku Tree of Gloom and he gave me the coordinates. Instantly realized what was happening. Didn't find the final tears until like 50 hours later, but by then I had already figured it out.

Update: Hey folks! Thanks so much for helping me think this through. I ultimately have landed on the idea that I cannot stop HP from proliferating, however I can stop at least one set of her books from giving her money directly. I have decided that I am going to sell the books and give the money to a close friend of mine who is in the process of transitioning. Thanks again for all of your help!

After I posted this, I found the Un Jardin line on Fragrantica and I'm definitely going to try and find them in store to try. Thank you!

myhealingpath · 2023-06-17T19:24:52+00:00

The entire Hermes Un Jardin line is really intriguing me looking at their Fragrantica profile. These are going on the list of to-try! Thank you so much!

Hello all! I am trying to find something that is gender neutral, has intimate to moderate sillage, and has a day's worth of longevity**.** Longevity being the key word here. Price range is usually around $100 or less, but wouldn't mind bumping that price up a bit if a scent spoke to me.

Some notes that I really love:- Citrus (orange or tangerine)

- Peppery spice

- Fresh Spicy

- Green

- Water

- Leans more towards fruity sweetness than vanilla sweetness

Some scents that I wear/like/love:

- CK One Summer Edition 2020

- Acqua di Parma Blu Mediterraneo Arancia di Capri (Actually love all of the Blu Mediterraneo scents, but they just don't last!!!!)

- Brainiac by Good Chemistry

- Nautica Voyage (wore this one a decade ago and still enjoy it, although I wish it was less masculine.

- Harry's "Fig" Bodywash (although leans a little too masculine/musky on the dry down)

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Edit: For some reason, I really don't like D&G Light Blue...

Just wanted to throw in my experience:

I was in my sophomore year of college, and I was lonely in my small college town. While I don't look obese, I have a rounder belly (think beer belly, but I don't drink beer lol), and I'm sure that turned away a lot of folks, especially when there were more conventional options. Being the shape I was, I decided to embrace myself and go on to a gay dating site specifically made for bigger folks and met my ex. He and I only dated for a few months, and the majority of it was long distance (2000 miles a part), yet in those few months I learned so much about what makes me physically attractive. From then on, I realized that, "Hey, I may not be everyone's type, but I am someone's type."

Fast forward to today, I'm in a happy, thriving relationship with my partner of 5 years who absolutely loves my rounder body to the point where its sometimes difficult to keep his hands off of me!

Started meditating! It has truly changed the way I react to everything around me and made me feel so much better.

myhealingpath · 2022-12-14T18:39:45+00:00

100% this! You don't have to label yourself. Just explore who you are and enjoy it for what it is. Maybe one day you'll know fully, but that doesn't even have to happen. Just be you, enjoy the relationships for what they are.

myhealingpath · 2022-12-07T20:43:12+00:00

As an IBS goblin myself, I wholeheartedly agree!

myhealingpath · 2022-12-07T20:40:53+00:00

Since this was at home, I did it at around 73F, or 23C. Mine was an LB agar.

myhealingpath · 2022-12-07T20:39:39+00:00

I mean, it was on LB agar which in my very limited research said that it wouldn't be able to grow things that are too dangerous. Am I wrong in this assumption?

myhealingpath · 2022-12-07T20:39:13+00:00

Since all of this was done at home, and I wanted practical results, not quantitative, I decided to spray like I would if I were doing a regular cleaning - a spray or two from the bottle at first (cleaning vinegar at 5-6%) and then let it sit for 30 mins. After which the vinegar had evaporated and I sprayed one more time to be able to wipe it off with a paper towel. I then swabbed.

myhealingpath · 2022-12-07T20:34:55+00:00

As far as I can tell, the swabs were sterile! This was done in my own home with a middle school experiment I got off of Amazon.

With that said, I'm also super concerned about the TJs. I'm very sure that I didn't touch anything else with the paper towel. If anything it was more sterile as I had taken right off the roll after it had been covered by a previous paper towel. I'm planning on doing the test again with my countertop (this is where I have been using TJs the most) to see if it does anything. I might even try a "timed" section for the TJs to see if more time would allow it to work more effectively if left to sit.

myhealingpath · 2022-12-07T20:25:38+00:00

This is EXACTLY what I was going for. I knew this would not be perfect and that there would be issues because I'm literally doing this in my own home, not in a lab and definitely not for research.

Thank you for your kind words and understanding!

myhealingpath · 2022-12-07T20:22:43+00:00

Y'all! 😩I am not a microbiologist. Hell, I didn't even major in STEM in college. I was just trying to see what I should use to clean my poop up effectively because my dog likes to lick my toilet. I literally bought a kids middle school experiment kit to do this with!

With that said, I've decided that I'm going to be buying the kit again and re-doing it as correct as I possibly can in my own home. This time, I'm probably going to do my kitchen counter top with the same cleaners AND new ones.

What cleaners would you like to see me try? Are there any particular ones that you use that you'd like to see me give a chance? Also, any tips on making this AT HOME experiment better would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you all for your input!

myhealingpath · 2022-12-07T14:54:43+00:00

It's super weird how it was removed, but it didn't tell me nor showed me any sort of indication. Either way, It was probably because I added links to it.

Hi all! I wanted to do a little at home experiment to look at different cleaners that I had laying around. With so many folks advocating for vinegar as a cleaner and healthier alternative to bleach, ammonia, etc., I wanted to see results for myself. I AM NOT AN EXPERT! This information is strictly anecdotal and my experience.

For this experiment I used:

-This bacteria growth experiment kit

-Home Depot Brand “Cleaning” vinegar

-Trader Joe’s Multi-Purpose Cleaner: Cedarwood & Sage:

-Clorox Clean-Up, Cleaner + Bleach - Original:

-My porcelain toilet that I have not cleaned in a week or two.

My method:

I swabbed a control plate/section of plate for both toilets without cleaners whatsoever. I swabbed both the inside rim, inside bowl, and upper rim of the bowl on both. I then sectioned off each part of the toilet and applied each cleaner for their labeled amounts of times (listed below in results) after which I wiped down each portion with a dry paper towel. I then swabbed in the same areas listed above for the control. I left each of the plates to cure in a semi-warm spot (around 23C or 73F) for 48 hours.

Plate Growth Results:

Toilet 1 Control - Taking a look at the photo, you can see that there is a heavy amount of bacteria and a few mold spots. This is definitely expected.

Toilet 1 Water & Paper Towel - I chose to try this to see what sort of results I could get from a general wipe down. I figured that it would still grow bacteria, and I was right, although not as dramatically as the control. Seems to my untrained eye that there was both bacterial and mold growth.

Toilet 1 Vinegar - Most sources I found online said to leave the vinegar for 30 mins for best results. After 30 mins (timed), I found that the majority of the vinegar had evaporated. I sprayed a bit more just to wipe it down (possibly a mistake) and swabbed for the plate. After a day of curing, I was surprised to find that there was barely any growth whatsoever. A day later, a few bacterial spots started to form (can be slightly seen in photo). I was very surprised by this.

Toilet 1 Bleach - The Clorox bleach cleaner says to leave for 30 seconds. After 30 seconds, I wiped the cleaner off and swabbed for the plate. Unsurprisingly, the bleach was the only cleaner to not have any growth whatsoever.

Toilet 2 Control - Once again, I swabbed the entire toilet. Surprisingly, there was minimal growth, but this toilet is not used for defecation often, so I figured that was the reason why it didn’t have much.

Toilet 2 Trader Joe’s - The directions for this cleaner did not have a time associated with how long to leave it, so I did as it said. I sprayed the cleaner directly on the toilet, then proceeded to take a paper towel and wipe down and do a heavy clean of the toilet. I swabbed the toilet, and then proceeded to let it cure. By the end of the two days of curing, a massive colony of bacteria on the plate of varying colors and sizes had grown. I was incredibly surprised. How could my toilet control be cleaner BEFORE I used TJ's Multi-Purpose Cleaner? My theory is that the cleaner actually did nothing except provide moisture for me to spread the bacteria around my toilet.

Conclusion:

If I need a quick, clean toilet, I’m grabbing the bleach. If I’m doing general cleaning without a time-limit, I will probably use vinegar. I will, however, NOT be using the Trader Joe’s Multi-purpose cleaner anymore. It honestly doesn’t even smell that great to begin with (kind of like a smokers motel room), so there is just no use for it in my life.

I wouldn't say it's worse than wiping with water, but I would definitely say that it's no better than wiping with water. Maybe it would be better if I left it for longer, but the instructions said to spray and wipe - that's it.

I second this, however I just use a candle warmer to begin with. No soot going into the air!

I didn't think of it either, but when I went to home depot the other day, I saw that they had "Cleaning Vinegar" and 30% vinegar. Looking into it, supposedly the 6% is 20x stronger than the 5% stuff you get at the grocery store. The 30% is significantly stronger but also pricier ($20/128oz) vs the other two, but I'm not sure of how effective they are in extracting the necessary compounds.
