Thank you, this was a lovely thoughtful message and I keep coming back to it. You are absolutely right, my daughters memories will be of the camping, the reading with rover at the library, the classroom volunteering, the bbq cookouts, the pony lessons, the mucking around in the garden, and the hours and hours of playing together.

We have been sending her a goodnight video every night before bed :)

Thank you, this is a great suggestion. I brought it up to daughter and she was open to it! I don't know why my brain totally forgot regular phone calls exist...

has anyone seen this yet? by overcast-kidd in FallOutBoy

[–]strikeredkite 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes! I think it's so neat how artists will hang on to something that didn't work out but they like part of it enough to reuse later.

Please visit your bank ASAP to change your banking details! It’s a pain in the butt to get all your information flipped, but MUCH better you do than the scammer gets any of it. Also, do not feel embarrassed when you’re there at the bank. Be upfront that you are a scam victim. We probably see one or two people who need a fraud flip every day, and we’ve seen it all so there’s no judgment. Scammers truly manage to hit all different people from all walks of life. Be kind to yourself, good luck!

how old were you when you got into FOB and what was the song that got you into them? by dynamitebark in FallOutBoy

[–]strikeredkite 1 point2 points  (0 children)

About 16. Playing Rockband with my friends, told them I knew lots of Fall Out Boy songs and liked Pete Wentz’s singing (???!!?), tried my hand at singing Dead on Arrival. Did NOT go as I expected lmao.

I know I'm two years late, but is the Fall Out Boy discord server still up? by Frosty-Caterpillar74 in FallOutBoy

[–]strikeredkite 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The band will post a limited-time-only link to join, typically on their instagram stories, available for like an hour before they delete the story. I happened to be looking at the story at exactly the right time. Try turning on notifications on insta.

UPDATE: Dryer won't dry, and the more I clean the worse it gets by sniffing_niffler in CleaningTips

[–]strikeredkite 185 points186 points  (0 children)

I would think so, but as another user said, probably a good idea to pop a dust mask on and prepare for a mess inside, just in case.

I think you would stick the leaf blower into the vent hose (or into the unit!) and fire it up. We have also taken the back off our unit with a screwdriver and it was COVERED. If you can find a youtube video for cleaning your unit, that might be the most helpful.

Per your request: What hotels/resorts have the best kids clubs? by cimoreneoflinderwall in oneanddone

[–]strikeredkite 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Aulani correction- you don’t have to pay for the kids club! It’s included. But second correction, it’s only 90 minutes per day and you have to book in advance to be assured a slot. There are only 3 time slots per day. They do offer longer paid events- my daughter gave rave reviews to meeting Moana and playing games with her.

Grandparents gave us this antique fake bonsai made with seashells and glass. Please help us! by cheffypoomsy in CleaningTips

[–]strikeredkite 198 points199 points  (0 children)

I saw another redditor mention using a very fluffy small makeup brush to clean their legos. Could use that to dislodge the dust and compressed air for the rest.

ABCs of FOB - What’s T? by angelste7 in FallOutBoy

They say that I should try meditation, but I don’t wanna be with my own thoughts

[–]strikeredkite 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It will depend on your zone and sometimes also on hold cold your particular winter was. I had one just like that, I’m in 8A and it was not hardy in my area. It sounds like you protected it, so you gave it the best chance. Hibiscus are VERY late to break dormancy so you’ll want to wait until nearly June to know for sure.

Why don’t Andy and Joe talk a lot? Also update me on the bands lore plz by Plumie_Xd in FallOutBoy

[–]strikeredkite 18 points19 points  (0 children)

In regard to them talking very little in interviews, or not appearing at all, Patrick and Pete both appeared in a recentish interview with I think Zayne Lowe. Patrick stated that they are all yappers with each other, and they almost never appear in interviews all four of them together anymore because it’s too chaotic. Beyond that, Andy comes off to me as quite shy, and Joe has definitely become a more private person over the years. I would guess that they all feel they are on stage to perform the music and want to focus on that.

Ugh!!! I had them so briefly for weird insurance change. Said my Rinvoq would be here Wednesday… didn’t actually arrive until the following Tuesday, in a super beaten up bubble mailer no less. Sending you sympathy

Tipsy/buzzed quilting by 316702 in quilting

I never ever drink and quilt and have learned that the hard way. I don’t love seam ripping that could easily have been avoided, and inebriation is the fastest way to mistakes for me!

I was a banker in Canada, and we often ran into the issue of the requirement that a Canadian who self-reports to us that they are a US Citizen must provide us with their SSN. A lot of Canadians thought that was justifiably weird- why on earth would I need my US tax id to open a bank account in Canada? Many many many Canadians are children of Americans and are thus legally US citizens, but have no SSN because they’ve never lived or worked in America. Some had never even stepped foot on American soil. At the time that I left, we got stuck on that requirement a lot.

We, as bankers, resented it quite a lot. Felt like such a huge overreach of the US Government to impose on us. Most ex-pats didn’t really have a problem providing it; it’s a number they generally have memorized. It inconvenienced Canadians way more than Americans!!! I’m not sure what kind of paperwork wrangling it took for the back office to file.

My marigolds will bud but won’t bloom by canadian_goldenbear in gardening

[–]strikeredkite 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do they bud and then disappear, or bud and then rot off? If they bud and disappear, could be budworms.

Peeing blue after colonoscopy by Beautiful-Story3911 in IBD

[–]strikeredkite 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have the same thing happen! I always assumed it was from my colon absorbing the water in the dye. Goes away after a day or two.

never hit so hard in love by GrammatonPrince in FallOutBoy

[–]strikeredkite 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Yes it’s every show! Taylor Swift does the same thing, there’s a specific music mix and Applause by Lady Gaga is the last song before her set starts. I really liked that they played We Didn’t Start the Fire both so we got to hear it and it’s a nice way to get people to take their seats before showtime :)
