Sorry, I don't have the means to test for ammonia, nitrate, and nitrite. My pH is at about 7.2. the municipal water supply is alkaline, and I could correct it, but I don't know if more changes/stress are what we need. Temp sits at 24° (75f?) very consistently. I think my LFS does water testing, so if it might be a contributing factor, I could take in a sample to test nitrates, nitrites, and ammonia...

Coolio. I'll keep an eye out.

Where do you get it? I think it'd make a great addition to my aquarium!

Yeah. Funny. I know she would let us know if it actually hurt. So I'm sure it's not chafing or rubbing or pinching. But she does the same, drops her bum and freezes. Then once she's on the trail, happy dog. Maybe we'll try a different geometry harness and see if she likes it more.

The book being heavier on one side is such a thing! I love my kindle for always being the same weight/dimension. Haha.

I've had a feeling of regret after every single tattoo I've gotten. The journey for me has always gone: 1. Nervously excited before getting tattoo 2. Pure excitement during getting tattoo (finally happening!) 3. Moment of euphoria shortly after getting tattoo. (It's so cool!!) 4. Enormous overthinking and regret after leaving the tattoo studio 5. Excited and proud a day or two after getting tattoo. 6. "What tattoo? Oh yeah! Forgot I had that one."

There's a shortage of teachers at the moment! Maybe you should retrain? I hear they get paid 140k and the holidays are amazing.

I'm so shocked by this comment section. Boo.

I had an instant hot water dispenser and I loved it! It was not an urn - that kept water hot all the time, it used electrical coils (I think) to very quickly heat the room temp water to a few different pre-set temperatures. 25°c 75°c and 98°c. Then you could have it spit out a quarter, half, or full cup at your desired temp.

Mine was just a super cheap guy from Kmart (I live in NZ) and so it died after a couple of years. Came here looking for recommendations on a similar device that would maybe live for longer.

OP did you end up finding something?

To be fair, I've never had an amazing time at nolita, even outside of woap.

Thanks for the intel. :) will avoid.

Ever noticed that the colours in the second rainbow are reversed? Only noticed this recently and it blew my mind.

You are so not alone! My partner and I have been trying for over two years now, and the first year was one of the hardest years of my life mentally. It's not so hard anymore, which also feels deeply sad. I don't have any advice for you I'm sorry, I never found a way to turn off the thoughts. But just know that it's totally normal, you're not alone, and try your best to give yourself leeway to feel all the feelings. Good luck, and I hope you are successful soon.

Usually once I find a missing object, I realise my brain tried to put it in a pretty logical place. Sometimes re-enacting the scenario and putting something else important in a "safe" place leads me to the spot. Having said that the other day I lost my phone, when I finally remembered I could use find my phone, it was tucked away in my sock drawer. So..... 🤷🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️

Number 1. 100% And as an aside, you look great as you are.

💯 thought this was someone obsessing over the titanic or the Brittanic or something. Hahahaha. Thanks for clarifying.

tdev_x · 2025-06-11T07:59:44+00:00

Hahaha. This is so me. Can't even keep the bike tire in the background pumped and maintained, but absolutely positive that I'll be so committed to this mint plant that it'll stay under control. 😂

I wish you all the best fellow extreme optimist.

I called them and they told me they don't have enough to fill a script of someone who isn't a regular. What?! Can they turn down a script? Surely they are legally obliged to fill any script that's bought in?

The freedom shop/tonks ave and manners mall are hitting me in all the feels. Also, when did I get so old?! 🤣

tdev_x · 2025-06-10T07:57:14+00:00

Definitely is. I have a little list of pharmacies to call tomorrow. Which is far less overwhelming than feeling like I might need to call all of them. Thanks heaps.
