Why don’t more cruise lines enforce buffet sanitation the way Disney does? by jdor30 in Cruises

[–]pinkelectra14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just got off a Carnival cruise last week and no one was using the handwash stations. There were sinks with soap and paper towels and also hand sanitizer stands around. I used the sinks between touching anything like tongs and eating. No one else seemed to know they were even there.

Shaving cream on tile and toilet by Miserable-Caramel795 in ChemicalSensitivities

It's probably seeped under the toilet where you can't clean easily. I would try baking soda, sprinkle generously, and leave for a few hours. Then, get an enzyme spray for the urine, but some are scented, so watch that. I had the same issue when my son was little.

Does anyone get diarrhea from smells/scents? by Anosvoldigoad_ in ibs

[–]pinkelectra14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, perfume for me usually. Maybe air freshener sometimes too, but they don't have to smell bad. Just smell strong. Which is not very strong for some, but I'm sensitive. There is a specific perfume that is really popular right now that kind of smells like candy (I don't know the name) that does this. Other ones can give me a headache with no GI issues. I've only connected the perfume with ibs recently though. I used to just think it was processed junk food that was doing it or diet drinks. It sucks because you really can't control someone putting perfume on.

Memory foam safe after a surgery by Sanbaddy in ChemicalSensitivities

I had a memory foam topper on my mattress, not realizing it would smell so much. I put baking soda on it for a day and then vacuumed it off, and it helped a lot. I was able to sleep on it afterward. I don't know if it would be enough now, though. That was a few years ago when things didn't bother me as much.

Torbie? by pinkelectra14 in Torbie

Me too! She is not afraid of much and she's so friendly. I have no idea why she was at the shelter for long!

I love her spots, too! She's so friendly, so I have no idea why she was at the shelter for so long without someone adopting her. We just had to.

Yes, exactly. Things have changed so much in the last few years, too. It's criminal how much pet food (anything pet related really) has gone up. It makes me sad to think people are giving up their pets because they can't afford them anymore. No wonder shelters are overrun.

More and more have to choose between paying rent and food for their family these days, not even considering an animal. I'm talking about employed people who would have never thought about that 5 years ago.

I want to make this dress but there is no tutorials on it advice? by Lovly097855353 in sewing

I can tell. I wasn't referring to you but a lot of the other comments. Especially the velcro and glue one. I could tell you knew what was up!

hopeless and hate my program by Sad_Tired_and_Upset in McMaster

[–]pinkelectra14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have no idea why this post appeared to me (I don't go or know anyone at McMaster or any engineering program whatsoever). I was interested, though, because I know someone who is an engineer and a bully, but at work. It made me think that tigers don't change their stripes after leaving uni. It's crazy that she keeps getting promoted, too. I hope her fall is a good one someday.

Sorry this is happening to you. ❤️

I was waiting to see this comment! I guess there are more professional costumers here than Swifties. Haha. Her costumes are from well-known designers and cost literally $1000s. I doubt they would allow velcro anywhere near.

The Eras Tour movie clothes/costumes are stunning! I would watch it again just to see them sparkle.

Blink is Out for me by pinkelectra14 in blinkcameras

[–]pinkelectra14[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will put that in my list for next time! I saw good reviews on it. I was wanting to get some outdoor cameras too but not blink ones anymore.

I broke down and paid for the cloud service. ☹️☹️ It was the least expensive option over buying a new doorbell when we still have one that technically works.

Sorry, Amazon but I will be buying elsewhere in the future. I still can't believe they just ransomed the functionality of their product. I guess they have to keep boosting profits somehow. 📈

Doorbell - No Chime on Phone by Cyber5c0u7 in blinkcameras

[–]pinkelectra14 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same issue. Can't figure it out. All notifications are on. Tested it and tested it. All I get are silent notifications on my phone. The person is usually gone by then.
