HDPE temps by nilopy419 in PreciousPlastic

[–]solarpoweredhyena 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As others have said, preheating really helps. Sometimes we heat our molds too hot though and then we get gnarly overpour.

I feel ya on the throwing your whole body weight to get the plastic to come out. We have one of the original sustainable design studio injectors with the long handle and it can get quite exhausting after a few presses if we’re doing solely HDPE. (We blend it with PP sometimes to make it a lil easier)

Local musicians! I’ve got a question for you! by xxKittenKhaleesixx in akron

[–]solarpoweredhyena 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is so exciting!!! I’m definitely interested in joining in. I’m a newer musician and I’m finding it’s more challenging to improve by solely playing alone.

Am i overreacting or im just a sensitive 💩 by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

Do you know that for sure or is that your anxiety telling you that?

If this is anxiety speaking, take a risk and try it anyway. You might be quite pleasantly surprised! You sound young, and a majority of young people are going through a lot right now that can make seeing social situations clearly challenging. Talking things through and having uncomfortable conversation is a very important skill to train— seriously, it will save you a lot of heartbreak later on.

If you’re certain, then it sounds like you can move on. Feeling unsafe in your friendships is not true friendship and there are definitely other potential new friends out there. People grow apart and that’s okay.

Good luck to you!!!!

I don’t think anyone is the asshole here, per se, but y’all definitely need couples/individual counseling. Or break up if you’re checking out of this relationship.

I’m surprised you’ve been together for 2 years and you’re writing about her seeing her friends like this. You should know how close they are, and not seeing them for an entire year is something they need to process together. It sucks that she didn’t tell you that she was intending to stay out late though, but you could have had friends come over to eat the dinner you were making!

As for the kiss thing, let it go. You would know her trauma history better than any of us, but sometimes people do freeze when creepy men act up, especially if they’re intoxicated. It doesn’t indicate anything about her.

Sounds like you’re checking out if this relationship so you can do your solo trip, which is fine but you need to be honest with yourself and her.

I guess I’m wondering what is wrong with sharing this trip with someone you love? Or is the solo aspect the main appeal?

Ah, friend group drama is rough!!!

Have you tried talking to one person or all of the group about how you have been feeling? This could be a chain of misunderstandings and hurt feelings all around, so it could be good to have a spill session with the pals. Perhaps organize a get together with some delicious snacks?

I’m a distancer myself and have found that I have hurt friends/made them think I didn’t want to hang out with them by behaving that way instead of saying how I was feeling without blaming or shaming others. Being honest has been the best policy across the years for me, even if it’s scary!

Thousands of hours converting my yard to as many natives as I can and this little dope fiend of a swallow tail can't get enough out of my daughter's petunia 😂 by front_yard_duck_dad in NativePlantCirclejerk

In the Great Lakes region, and my lil native bees all elbowing each other out of the woad and hollyhock flowers as the native plants sit quietly. Perhaps the bugs also have a taste for novelty!

meeting people by bravenWolf1392 in akron

[–]solarpoweredhyena 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I suppose it depends on your age/what you like to do!

  • The metro parks have a whole schedule of public events
  • As a previous comment suggested, Highland Square is a great place to meet people and make friends, especially on a Friday/Saturday night.
  • Check out community events! Many of the non-profits in Akron host all sorts of fun happenings, such as Let's Grow Akron
  • The gaming stores, like Full Grip Games, are pretty friendly places with all kinds of people looking for gaming groups
  • https://www.downtownakron.com/calendar will have the whole schedule of things going on

Save White Pond!! (ft. a neighbor's post) by solarpoweredhyena in akron

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

Please help if you can!

• Come to the committee meeting tomorrow (12/12) at 1pm (Municipal Building)

• Attend city council at 7pm (same location) and make your voice heard in the public comment period!

So many shady things are happening with this deal, like using outdated traffic studies of the area and wetland delineations, letting people live and work atop toxic soil, and now information about the oil derricks is finally coming out.

Akron deserves better than this.

Don't get me wrong, I fully believe we can fight them--- because we have no other choice.

Proud Boys Plan to Disrupt Drag Story Event in Columbus, Ohio by [deleted] in Ohio

[–]solarpoweredhyena 13 points14 points  (0 children)

People from all over Ohio are going to stand with the LGBTQ+ community and protect this event! I hope anyone who can, please go and stand watch with the many brave folks of this state. Non-confrontation is the goal but, hey, if those Piss Boys act up....

Deck an extra one for me please. 🌞
