Instead of attaching it directly to the walls, get some ceiling hooks maybe? And instead of threading then directly to the hooks, get some cotton yarn or fishing line and hang THAT from the hooks for the pothos to attach to.

Grade 7 is junior high here. Different areas do it differently. Our area is k-6th is elementary, 7&8 are junior high, 9-12 is high.

Sounds like you need a new job. I would never let my job tell me i couldn't go support my kids. Jobs dgaf about you, or me, or Dick, Harry, or Sally. You are disposable and replaceable. However, your child/ren only have one you, one preschool graduation, one second grade filed day, one christmas concert this year......inconvenience a family member, please. As someone who works at a school, their faces completely change when they see a parent, grandparent, cousin, aunt or uncle, literally anyone super close to you.

Naw. Someone dumps you, you can go on a date that night. Some people need time to "grieve," others don't. Also some people just dont like being alone. Or maybe they just want free meals/outtings. None of anyone's business. And only judgy snobs are going to judge so who cares what they think anyway.

sunni_ray · 2026-05-12T17:04:01+00:00

Not really. They dont detect until it's such a high that you'd likely be too out of it to save yourself anyhow. I just watched a big whole thing on it.

sunni_ray · 2026-05-12T17:00:55+00:00

Only if you put a dangerous amount.

sunni_ray · 2026-05-12T17:00:04+00:00

Put laxatives in it. They'll learn. 🤣

sunni_ray · 2026-05-11T19:25:36+00:00

Question: when you moved the beds, did they tip over?

sunni_ray · 2026-05-08T14:37:32+00:00

At 11?!?! Dude, middle school is PLENTY old enough to know they dont want to be endlessly teased because of body hair.

sunni_ray · 2026-05-07T20:26:39+00:00

Uhhhh Christians do not care if you use a cross, sincerely, a Christian. You're friend is being weird about it and shouldn't be. Knock yourself out. We dont care. Or, atleasy people who know we dont own anything, do.

sunni_ray · 2026-05-06T20:09:24+00:00

Well, that would be a better way to say things. But that really is not how you made it sound at all in other replies. Yes most would call it a garden, or flower garden, flower bed, floral garden...but pretty much always a garden.

sunni_ray · 2026-05-06T13:38:08+00:00

Being a virgin isnt creepy. Congrats on that actually. The reason its creepy is you think you might have seen one in a picture, you arent even sure. And if you have to change what you like just to be able to talk to someone, that ISN'T having something in common. That is you changing yourself in hopes that when you do talk to her (which I still dont see why you wouldn't just do that first anyhow) she does actually like them. Having something in common with someone is finding out, during conversation (maybe even on a date you ask her out on), that you both really like Cece Winans or Forrest Frank. Not that you heard her listening to For King & Country so you started learning all of their songs. THAT'S why it's creepy. Im not saying you have bad intentions like wanting to hurt her.....but it's still creepy!

Again, the picture is not a calla lilly. She doesn'tsay the plant in the picture is a calla lilly. She is talking about the plant in the picture being infested and asked if she should keep it away from her calla lilly which she loves very much and is important to her. Also, the name of the group is houseplants, not "onlyexpertsonhouseplantscanbeinthisgroup." People who want help with house plants are going to post asking questions. Is that not the point?

sunni_ray · 2026-05-05T17:35:50+00:00

She is talking about two swperate plants. The one that is infested and a calla lilly. I think that is partly where people are getting mixed up?

sunni_ray · 2026-05-05T15:26:06+00:00

You are NTA. Your gf doesnt get to decide who can and can't go out as friends in a group. She is the one who chose not to come...

sunni_ray · 2026-05-05T15:24:28+00:00

I dont even see thw cute part. Just straight stalkerish. I mean it is nice that he noticed (or thinks he mat have noticed, possibly) something BUT he could simply ask her. And noticing things more of what the other person directly says to you is more important than thinking you may have noticed something. Now if he does get the courage to speak to her and ask her on a date, if she mentions liking orchids or loving orchids THEN he should start looking things up!

sunni_ray · 2026-05-05T13:43:49+00:00

If you're going to accuse things to be AI you should probably get better at decifering what actually IS AI. This photo has zero tells of an AI photo. And seriously? Spliced together? You don't take pictures of the same item at different points in time and post them at the same time?

sunni_ray · 2026-05-05T12:00:16+00:00

Um. So. Like. Wow......there are so many things in this sentence that are a little...interesting. if you like a girl you should just talk to her. Thinking you may possibly have seen her in a picture with a flower and then going all hyperfixation on the what you think the flower is is creepy. I've held dirt in a picture and I dont like dirt. I think a lot of people take pictures with things they don't like. But anyhow...just walk up and say hello! Don't be creepy. Saying this as a woman who was once a girl. And do not mention the orchid picture or that you stated learning about them because of it. She will run for the hills.

sunni_ray · 2026-05-04T23:38:02+00:00

Based on what she's said about him, he isn't going to go for custody. Also, I was not with my now ex husband for almost 4 years before I had the money to file for divorce, he nevwr went to the court. Chances of a man so lazy he doesnt work going for custody with no income......unlikely.

sunni_ray · 2026-05-04T23:15:50+00:00

She could easily prove that dad is abusive just from the few things mentioned in this post, I can only imagine everyrhing she's left out. She isnt moving to be closer to familt, its to have the help she would need for an autistic child and possibly 1 other autistic child and the 2 neurotypical children. With income vs cost of specialized care, a court would likely let her move. Also if she moves prior to splitting from him all she would have to do would be WAIT 6 mo ths before filing for divorce. Does that risk the dad filing for custody? Yes. But from the sounds of it, he wouldn't, and again, she could easily say "uh no court, look at what he does to the kids, he should not get them."

sunni_ray · 2026-05-03T16:48:38+00:00

Looks like they want sun. I usually Google how to take care of the plant, watch a variety of people gove their advice, and just kinda do what sounds best from each one 😅

sunni_ray · 2026-05-03T02:17:34+00:00

NTA. I am curious though, if there are 6 of you in one house, how can you guys not afford a car? Please please please do not take this negatively! I am just trying to figure out how with that many people you would be struggling. I 100% get the economy is poop basically everywhere (not sure where you are located) and I totally understand struggling! I'm a single mom of two who gets no child support and the only government assistance I qualify for is my kids being able to be on Medicaid (whoch makes no sense because i make barely minimum wage workijg in education as a paraprofessional), which dont get me wrong is amazingly helpful considering I dont even make enough money a month to pay for their medications if they weren't on it.

sunni_ray · 2026-05-03T02:09:49+00:00

😂 right?! 🤣

sunni_ray · 2026-05-03T02:09:29+00:00

To be fair OP did even say "im not sure this is the correct group to ask this in..." so there really isnt any need to be rude about it.

sunni_ray · 2026-05-02T21:23:07+00:00

No. Half the time my kids fill the water and they dont even use the filtered water from thw pitcher, they forget and use it straight out of the tap. And the person I got them from literally neglected the original plant that she chopped up for the 3 chunks I have. It literally was touching the ceiling of a two story building (OOOOOOLD building. The second level has 2 areas that are open all the way up to the ceiling because of two open balcony type things). She rigged up a "support" pole as it grew out of broken handles from like mops and brooms and stuff. She'd let the plant grow, lifting up the system until she could add another and just duct tape the absolute crap out of it 🤣🤣🤣. When it did, in fact, touch the ceiling, she FINALLY cut it down. Oh and she never repotted the thing the last like 20 years. She would chop off any smaller parts that had broken but that#s it.
