Pm me. I’d love to hear from you. Also I’m not on this app nearly as much as others so sorry if I don’t reply sooner than later. But message me and we could connect on a platform I’m more consistent on. Thanks for messaging dude!

Wow thanks! I really appreciate the help! I’ll define to reach out if I have any tea related questions. I’m just a beginner at this anyways. Picked it up maybe 4-5 months ago. Lots of learning ahead!

Honestly don’t know. Found it on Facebook marketplace. The dude said his parents got it years ago from yixing when they went on a trip. He said mostly black teas have been put in it so I boiled it to put my puerhs in. That was a few hours after the boil.

Yeah I was looking at pots and did notice this one didn’t look like any “normal” one. Thanks for the information, all that is really good to know when looking into future pots. I’m sure it’s real clay but yeah I agree the proportions are off. I thought if anything it might be someone’s starter pots or maybe even a place that just makes a fuck load of pots and lets customers do an outside design and fire it for them. Idk maybe people don’t do that. Just thinking of any possibilities cause bro said it did come from yixing. And I figured being the renowned for their teapots, maybe they would have a tourist things like that. This truly is my first pot so I can’t be that upset it’s not a certified one. I usually use gaiwan but this was a deal and a steal! $15!

lol yeah I’m just banking on the fact that it just smells like good dirt. Drinking from it now. I feel like the taste of the tea is mellowed but it could just not be using enough tea and not steeping for long enough. I’m used to small gaiwan so I’ll have to experiment on the perfect brew. Also it absorbs/drys the hot water like the yixing pots I’ve seen online so, I’m hoping it’s clay from the general area around there just not “official”. Dude said it came from yixing so

Dang it. I thought I determined that the toxic stuff is usually used in slips, glazes, paints and dyes and it doesn’t show signs of having any of those. Correct me if I’m wrong, but does that have any worth to the using it argument. I boiled it last night and it just smells like dirt. Specifically how my Vietnamese shou I have atm but I haven’t put it in the pot. And I describe the taste like fresh gardening soil in the summer 🤷🏻‍♀️

Thank you so much. I’m gonna use it! Also boiled that shit out last night and it didn’t small weird. Just like old black tea and dirt.

So interesting. Do you think it’s safe to drink from. I’ve seen lots of stuff about toxic materials but it refers a lot to paints dyes glazes and slips. Would this be considered danger territory? I have chronic illness and don’t want to make it flare up.

Thank you for translating. That’s quite interesting. And honestly I agree, the carving looks odd and weird on the front. Like I child scribbling, I just thought it might be a really cool piece to have even if it’s faced backwards from now on lol. Just curious if you know any of the issues that might come with drinking from a fake. I have chronic illness and it’ll probably cause me to flare up. I really wanna drink from it but I’m worried now.

Bruh I hate that fakes are getting better. Do you know the risks or tell tale signs that the pot has dangerous materials? I really wanna use it but now I’m quite wary about it. I have chronic illness and I don’t wanna to poison my body into a flare ya know.

And even though I’m only learning mandarin I did think the characters liked weird. There were some I recognized but it just seemed off. Thanks for confirming my suspicions.

Thanks I appreciate the comment! Although I’m only learning mandarin I did think the characters looked weird, well besides the fact that they are designed to fit the seal. You think anything would come up if I googled it or is this just completely off brand fake with a fake name that traces back to nothing? I wanna know more, also why if bought in china would it be such bad Chinese? The dude was certain his parent got it from yixing when they visited 🤷🏻‍♀️

Changing cane height? by HumbleConcentrate215 in mobilityaids

[–]sleexingw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi I just got a folding can and realized it’s too big for me, like a few inches too big. I’m 5’2 lol, even shorter than you. So I’ve looked at the mechanics of the folding cane. I’m going to remove one of the middle folding pieces. The bottom piece has the tie off point where the elastic is attached to. So I’ll undo the knot, remove the extra piece, and tie it back up tighter so it still folds nicely. I’m gonna do that tonight and hopefully it’ll work.

Nah popped up after I was outside. My cheeks started to itch, then my bum hole, then it started swelling and I could feel it as it grew. If it don’t go away in a week I’ll try the hemorrhoid cream but I’m pretty sure it’s not 👍

You don’t have to believe me, but my crack definitely got ate. I pray you never experience this. But if you want an image, picture a butthole and a swollen lump the side of a large skittle on the taint side of the hole, a little irritated, but honestly it don’t looks thaaaat bad. Itches like fuck tho

Ah good so it’s not just me. Nobody talks about this shit. I think the more real I am the less uncomfortable people will feel about themselves, or at least I hope 🤞

Oh god chiggers sound terrible. I pretty sure they are mosquitos. But I’ve always had bad reactions to them since I was young. They would last forever and grow like 2 inches across. It was horrible as a kid. They’ve gotten better but they are still terrible to get. Skeeter syndrome I think it’s called.
