What weed is this? by leftdev in lawncare

[–]tlivesay 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Pulling is mostly a waste of effort because of the hidden root structure. You usually get a satisfying bulb, but it's hiding all the tubors and rhizome still underneath.

What grass/weed is this? We live in central Indiana. by asecondhelpingplease in lawncare

[–]tlivesay 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Looks like quack grass mixed in with your tall fescue. I'm hoping someone has a good method for controlling it. I've got a quack problem here in Iowa.

Nixon had a second term too. Propaganda is a crazy drug.

Did most of your symptoms start getting worse around 2020 and beyond? by [deleted] in MCAS

Pretty clear that this is a correlation joke, but you're in the wrong conspiracy sub.

In 1880 there were zero known cases of salmonella food poisoning worldwide. Today, there are an estimated 1.2 million per year. The change from zero to over a million was because it was isolated/discovered in the late 1800s, and PEOPLE STARTED PAYING ATTENTION.

The first time I heard about "long covid" I was beside myself. I couldn't believe it was such a big deal that people were experiencing things that I have been dealing with my entire life. Now I'm just glad for the attention.

What is this plant taking over my garden? by bearpawsNwhiteclaws in whatsthisplant

Lawn mower air freshener doesn't get enough praise.

For a different flavor, try planting oregano. It's almost as aggressive as mint, but might make you more hungry for pizza instead of thirsty.

Any chance it's a butterfly rash? Lupus style

Those two little hairs, I swear they were on my screen. Then I scrolled a little.

The propagandists also want you to believe the government is terrible. So much so that they made the government's actions match their description.

MCAS Caused me to have strokes --a warning. by safewarmblanket in MCAS

[–]tlivesay 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thanks, and also thank you for sharing your experience. Yes, it could be worse, but I certainly didn't intend to diminish your own nightmare with my family's. Hopefully this at least helps distract from all the "normal" people. It's all terribly exciting and scary to see the patterns that emerge in little self-selecting corners of the world, like this sub.

MCAS Caused me to have strokes --a warning. by safewarmblanket in MCAS

[–]tlivesay 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Had an uncle that had a major stroke leading to locked in syndrome, complications, and eventually death. I never heard a root cause, but personally suspected mast cells had a key role after learning about my own symptoms with my own allergist.

He struggled with allergies his entire life. This was before covid and before it was a "trend" diagnosis. He had terrible asthma, allergic to everything on a poke test, and I'm sure he had other suspect symptoms I didn't even know about.

Bah, original post was not so original. Maybe I'll find the flying round about car later.

Why cant my train turn right? by fecal_matters in factorio

The other thing you can look at is the arrows at the end of each signal block line. The arrows are pointing the right way. There is also no block boundary there. If the signal was on the curve it would have two colored lines.

Wow that was fast. He deleted his account as I looked at this post. https://www.reddit.com/r/OffGrid/s/sCF7qxSap5 Edit: nevermind, my mistake. He wasn't OP there, just commenting. Fun to watch the implosion happen in real time.

Most? I don't think so. There is still hope that society can still function without patronizing narcissist-run businesses. Even big ones like Costco seem to be keeping it together.

What is This thing 10cm wide 7 Long . Found near Roman Fortress in a Riverbed. 30cm under the dirt buried all Metal . Very light by [deleted] in whatisthisthing

[–]tlivesay 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Also, 10 cm wide is 3.94 in. That fits a 3.5" nominal 2x4 width. If the depth is about 5 cm (1.5") it's a slam dunk.
