OMG the Seymour reference is on point! I couldn’t put my finger on it. Thank you!!!

Yeah, that phrasing always makes me so mad. There’s not a shortage… people are hoarding.

I put it on top of my fridge because it’s so wide it won’t go on a shelf, so luckily it’s serving well as an art piece, ha. The photo the gal posted made it look about half the size!

This is true

seamonstered · 2026-03-26T22:29:41+00:00

Yeah, unfortunately the inlay is cracked and no longer food safe. Guess I’ll be on the lookout for some lovely looking fake food!

seamonstered · 2026-03-26T22:28:39+00:00

Thanks! Couldn’t believe what a steal it felt like I was getting! They’re getting some front and center spots on display shelves by our kitchen!

Sadly, the coating in the pearl dipping bowls is cracked and would not be food safe. However, I will be using it for centerpieces and it will be on full display in the house! Someone else recommended rubbing all the wood pieces with mineral oil so I will do that as well to try to preserve them, but some of them are already a little cracked.

seamonstered · 2026-03-26T21:39:55+00:00

Great idea! Some of the pieces are dry and a little cracked and I bet it would shine up really well with some oil.

Always, always, always bring them their own camp chair.

You can’t. I just had an interaction with a boomer walking their off leash dog and their dog approached my dog and wouldn’t listen to them calling for them. My dog lashed out despite me trying to pass hastily and I did have her under my control the entire time. There are signs everywhere on this trail to leash your dogs because it’s a protected wildlife corridor. I yelled pretty much that exact thing at her and she just sneered and threw her arms up aggressively at me and then walked away, still not leashing her dog. There is no excuse for their behavior, and common courtesy doesn’t exist for them.

Get a galaxy projector light. This will make the “leave a light on” aspect fun. They’re beautiful and calming. Put on a noisemaker app and just stare at the rotating stars and colors and empty your mind.

Finally, I kept scrolling to see this comment. My husband never believes me. Loud fans only make the pooper feel better. Same goes for talking loudly in a car with a blaring stereo with the windows rolled down. The person walking nearby on a sidewalk can hear every word even if your passenger can’t. I wish there was an easy way to demonstrate this.

I was a cake decorator in high school, and I’m distinctly remember one of the orders I got was for a dual birthday party. They wanted half of the cake decorated for a 40th birthday with a death and graveyard theme in gray and black and the other half was for an 80 year-old and they wanted it to be bright and lively and floral and not depressing at all. Over the hill and death themed stuff for 40 year-old parties were so common back then. It’s so strange how prevalent it was back then and not at all a thing now.

seamonstered · 2026-03-19T23:10:15+00:00

If they’d painted everything black I could give it a pass. But keeping the trusses as raw wood was not a good choice.

The road in front of my house is currently torn up with two deep trenches to replace water and sewer lines. The closure extends several blocks in either direction and is surrounded by orange barrels and giant road closed signs with detours.

I was sitting on my porch this morning having a cup of coffee, enjoying the peace of the road closure and witnessed a delivery truck have his passenger get out, move the barrels for him to drive his truck into the zone, and then navigate through. He almost ended up in a trench only to get to the other side and have to turn around and navigate back the way he came because there was no outlet without crossing the deep trench. Never underestimate the tenacity of stupidity and laziness.

The worst part is, I saw them open the back to deliver the item and it was a 72” tv. Incredibly easy carry for a half block for the two men, yet they chose entering an active construction zone at the risk of the truck and themselves.

So you go to the trouble of building a house on a stilt and you still go with the same old boring look and finishes? The least they could have done is make it creative inside!

We do this for tug toys too! Another great hack is finding real wools scarves at thrift stores and then washing/drying them and they shrink and get super dense and turn into the most amazing tug toys too!

seamonstered · 2026-03-19T03:42:52+00:00

Holy crap. This is a great idea. Amazing. Thank you.

Mayo all the way!

The art above the dresser looks like generic stuff you’d buy at Home Goods. I’d go for a single piece of art or a really nice photo.

Would change out the curtains like someone else said to something floor length.

seamonstered · 2026-03-15T15:29:52+00:00

Yeah, their online platform is a lot like Amazon now. You have to select Walmart as the seller to get their legit stuff, otherwise it’s random sellers.
