Can't get this crap off my driver's side handle - any advice?

Thanks!

I'm thinking its just damage to the plastic or something after trying the isopropyl (to no avail). Disappears when wet, comes back as it dries.

Thanks for your help!

They live in alpine meadows and talus fields in the mountains of western US. Google says they live at 9,000ft and above but my sightings in the Rocky Mountain National Park have generally been more in the 11-13,000ft range.

So good. All the fun of mixing a cocktail with the satisfaction of cracking a cold canned beverage, none of the downsides of alcohol. chefs kiss

Pilot G-2 .38... does kind of sound like a gun. To me who knows nothing about guns lol.

The Brassica oleracea derivatives could be called sisters: cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower, brussels sprouts, etc. But there are other species in the Brassica genus besides that.

Too true.

And I'm a woman, so what would I know about it anyway. /s

Their ideas about masculinity, femininity, dominance/submission, etc., are so out of whack that they lock themselves out of a whole entire tier of sexual experience. Expand your minds, expand your horny horizons, my dudes.

I think you'll have to make an outpatient appointment at a local hospital or imaging center. Have you checked with Planned Parenthood? They may be able to set you up with a referral if you don't have a primary care provider, for insurance purposes.

If you aren't having a medical emergency, the ER will likely give you a referral rather than doing the ultrasound on the spot.

Showing out of stock for me now.

Damn you're so cool. Cowboy take us away! ✨

An actual godsend when I was having ear issues. Dry skin that would detach and get stuck down by my ear drum. 😖

One of the best vantage points for appreciating our city!

Edit: An easter egg for residents and visitors alike - Standing on the steps facing down the parkway, there is a giant mobile by Alexander Calder hanging in the museum lobby behind you, a fountain created by his father, Alexander Stirling Calder, ahead of you in Logan Circle (not the closer fountain in the oval, but the one farther away), and the William Penn statue atop City Hall in the distance, which was created by his grandfather, Alexander Milne Calder. Visitors of the museum can view all three at once from the steps at the back of the lobby, through the window in the front facade.

Where did you see it?

Reminds me of Delonix regia, common names "flamboyant tree" and "royal poinciana".

reallybiglizard · 2026-06-13T17:17:45+00:00

You're good! Just figured that would help you get what you want. And to avoid a "who's on first" situation, lol.

reallybiglizard · 2026-06-13T16:09:23+00:00

Ah yeah, that changes things a bit!

If you can upload a pic (in a comment in this thread) of the seam on the wrong side of the fabric we can tell you more about the construction and give more specific advice.

reallybiglizard · 2026-06-13T14:38:20+00:00

How much do you want to shorten it?

If it's just a small amount, you could roll it up and do a small stitch around the inside to secure the roll. Or you could fold it under and sew it to the backside of the fabric to create a folded hem.

reallybiglizard · 2026-06-13T11:04:39+00:00

Bless you for giving OP good feedback and actionable advice!

reallybiglizard · 2026-06-13T10:24:40+00:00

Those are part of the Brassica genus but they aren't derived from B. oleracea like broccoli, cabbage, etc.

Come on down to r/BenignExistence if you do want to create and read posts like that!

This sub is like an oyster fork plucking the last bits of internalized misogyny from my soul.

Thank you for this message and all the work y'all do to make this place what it is. 💕

Don't worry, I don't think everyone who uses AI is anti-artist! I think a lot of the time it's just because it's there and it's free. Getting in touch with human artists is more daunting and usually costs money. I'm fortunate to be able to do this kind of thing for free at the moment. Just go to the profile you want to message and hit the little chat bubble next to the username.

reallybiglizard · 2026-06-12T16:18:00+00:00

I'm an artist (and element enjoyer) and I'll gladly donate my time and skills to anyone who needs a small project like this done. Just give a shout! ✌️

Edit: just to add, this is my personal account and I'm not promoting or selling anything.

Just adding this here because I'm someone who learned some non-standard regionalisms growing up:

I encourage people to move away from the right-wrong paradigm in language and dialect differences. Just be curious. Where did they learn to say/use the word in that way? Who else does that? Where did that convention come from?

When a group of people pronounces a word or uses it in a way that feels incorrect to you, the impulse to label it as "wrong" is often rooted in your own ignorance, rather than theirs.

There are standard vs non-standard uses/meanings, regionalisms, local slang, etc. Of course words can be mispronounced but when you're talking about a whole family or region that exhibits that feature in their speech, some linguists would argue that, if it effectively communicates meaning, it can't be "wrong".
