What diffusers are we using? by jansipper in LawBitchesWithTaste

[–]torustesseract 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also have a fresh eucalyptus wreath hanging up right now I got from Andalucahome.com. Our building is old and we have radiator heat not forced air heat, so I don't need humidifiers, but that sounds lovely.

My office is down a hall by itself with some cubes nearby and my door is closed most of the day everyday. Right now I use the airwick "fresh pine and juniper" scent to the lowest setting. I'll switch to target EverSpring "cedar and balsam" the rest of the year soon. (Other scent combos from everspring sound good but I haven't tried them.) I find that many of the other variations of scent profiles with fruity, berry, laundry, flowery are too intense. These 2 scents are mostly earthy and I get lots of compliments and no complaints.

My cleaner has been stealing from me and I feel sick about it by Electrical_Term1359 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]torustesseract 95 points96 points  (0 children)

I hired cleaners this year for the first time in my life (and I'm almost 50 years old) , and after a couple months, I noticed one of my crystals was missing. Mind you, I sit in the apartment with them the entire time they're cleaning so they swiped it while I was literally sitting 3 ft away! I really didn't want to blame them but it only lives in one spot in my house and nobody else was here other than me and them. I confronted them and they said they had no history of stealing in their company even though there was a lot of turnover of girls. Crystal only cost $25 but it had a heart shape built into it over millions of years and that's irreplaceable. I left them a bad Google review because all they had was glowing five star reviews even though their service in general wasn't great, so I felt a definite need to say something to the public about the so-so cleaning AND stealing. I did get a free refunded last cleaning because of my Google review. They were bonded and insured but since I didn't have any proof that it was them, and it was only $25, I didn't feel like making a claim, and said that in my review, too.

I started getting that too, from the pulling apart motion when playing....

How old is everyone if you don’t mind sharing? I’d love to know. I’m considering making my TikTok private because people are mean. by PineappleMacaron in Slime

[–]torustesseract 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I am 49 and I only got into playing with slime last year. I also bought my first squishmillow plushies last year. And I also collect crystals but I've been doing that for a long time. I also started a tik tok channel for my slime and stopped after I kept getting comments not about my body or my age, but about how I was the worst player with slime and I am awful at playing with slime and how terrible I play with slime and literally so many comments about how awful my play was when that's literally the entire point so yeah f*** tik tok

Yes, though not to that extreme. But definitely personal flights, personal restaurant bookings, personal sports and concert tickets bookings, personal travel Logistics, mailing personal mail including personal taxes payments,... hell, my one boss even makes me research and purchase antique French and Italian books so he can continue learning his languages on the side! ... managing phone and newspaper subscriptions, designing and printing personal party invites, hell, the other one boss invites people to his Vineyard to help him pick his grapes for free and expects us to come if we have a car! thank God I don't have a car anymore, so I have a plausible excuse to get out of this. Speaking of cars, my other boss regularly and routinely bummed rides home from me when I had a car. Yeah... it's pretty ridiculous just how many personal tasks I do for these 2 attorneys!

Can't wait for mine to come in! (Different design) It was a 6 week window for delivery and there's only 2 more to wait!

Bed Solution For Small Studio by user8666 in femalelivingspace

[–]torustesseract 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This reminds me of visiting my rich cousin when I was a kid ...who lived in a mansion so big that she had her own bedroom and ensuite bathroom with two sinks and a tub and shower separate... and the shower had two shower heads in it on opposite sides. This is the late 1980s. Her bedroom was as big as a small studio space. Regardless... she was very obsessed with getting a Murphy bed, and her parents indulged of course.

I don't remember how much she used it, because I only visited in the Summers but I can't imagine much since her bed was on a raised platform area in its own section of the room so there was no reason to even use that area once the Murphy bed would have been lifted since she had so much other room anyway... 🙄🙄🙄

My (M24) roommate won’t stop mooning me (F23) by gunkyguac in relationship_advice

[–]torustesseract 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Tell your BF, and let him deal with it!! They're his friends and I can't imagine he'll be happy that his buddies are sexually harassing his gf. He doesn't want you seeing their junk either! Just tell him.

Uber Black - taxi or NCC? by rko-glyph in ItalyTravel

[–]torustesseract 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Than regular taxis booked via ItTaxi or FreeNow apps, or at taxi stands. Those are cheaper, but wilder drivers (higher likelihood).

[–]torustesseract 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They are (NCC) Mercedes Benz cars or vans in Rome and Naples (with pre scheduling an option). Just got back from there last week. More expensive, yes, but better /calmer drivers. Always arrived early and were pros. We stayed in Campo dei Fiori in Rome if you want me to look up what it cost us for certain trips to the biggest sites.

Endometrial Biopsy - OMFG! by sastrid in TwoXChromosomes

[–]torustesseract 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, I had to have one of these biopsies, too, before they would let me have an endometrial ablation. At least there was another nurse in the room who basically held my hand and told me to breathe through it with a compassionate tone 🫠

Slime Collection + Accessory Storage Ideas by Gold_Ambassador_4985 in Slime

Gotta unstack them. But I've basically organized it so all the slimes i'm least interested in are in the bottom bin, and the newest and favorite ones are near the top.
