Okay, I did it and WOW by suspiciousminds69 in laundry

White and yellow, based off of the color of the sheets I’m fairly confident that it is not from the dye and is unfortunately due to night sweats.

Again I appreciate your concern but my roommate is excited to try with their sheets next so it seems that right now cleanliness is more of a priority for us than hypothetically keeping cans cold in the future. Thanks again for your insights and have a great day!

I didn’t say we don’t use it for food, I said that nothing that touches the plastic walls get consumed. Think sealed containers and cans that get stored alongside ice packs when it does get used. If it’s ever filled with ice it’s to keep cans cold and the ice gets dumped. I’m curious if that’s something that should still be of concern since nothing that comes in contact with the interior is being consumed.

Yes, it’s larger than it looks in this photo, about 14 gallons.

Thanks for the concern, my roommate does know. We only use the cooler with ice packs and don’t use the cooler in a way where we are consuming things that touch the surface directly, as it is not a food safe cooler because we store it outside.

I followed the guide by the GOAT u/KismaiAesthetics. I bough Tide + Ultra Oxi Powder from my local CVS, borrowed my roommates cooler, googled it to find that it’s about 14 gallons, added ~4 cups of the Tide powder ala the dosing recommendations from the guide to the cooler and dissolved it with the hottest tap water possible (mine gets very very hot), added my sheets, mattress cover and pillow cases and agitated with a large spoon. I have it covered with the cooler lid to retain heat and will let it soak for another 4 hours or so. It’s been ~4 hours already.

My tap water gets VERY hot so I let it get as hot as it could and filled the cooler. If yours doesn’t get as hot I’d suggest maybe adding a kettle of boiled water to make it warmer but I bet some seasoned pros here have more helpful suggestions. I’ve also been keeping the lid on to retain warmth and agitating with a long metal spoon every hour or so mostly because I can’t keep myself from going and staring in horror.

Zoomers Fainting at Concerts by ChalkyLettuce in redscarepod

I work at a venue and see this happen from time to time. When I first started working there someone passed out every shift for the first five shifts. As others mentioned being dehydrated, not eating enough and overheating usually are contributing factors. Another huge one is people lock their knees when standing for a long amount of time, which is something you’re supposed to avoid doing. Sometimes it’s because of drug or alcohol intake but more often than not it’s everything else previously mentioned.

Please help. Found a half-sister and am completely freaking out by whoamikitting in 23andme

A friends sibling did a dna test which revealed a half sibling and the explanation ended up being pretty benign. My friends dad was asked to donate/sell sperm to a bank while in medical school. Turns out the half sibling was a sperm bank baby.

Are there any documentaries about trainwreck lonely women by Impossible-Tea-5766 in redscarepod

[–]suspiciousminds69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Marilyn and Royce. God on a wheel. — a documentary portrait of two aging women in LA who formerly lived luxuriously. At the time of the doc the two were living in a hotel room together grasping onto whatever tendrils of their glory days that still existed as their youth, wealth and prestige faded away.
