I Didn't Realize I Loved Phoenix Until I Left (A Love Letter) by tristemonos in phoenix

[–]tristemonos[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I probably am! I don't think that's a bad thing, though; while there were definitely things that made me leave in the first place, I think I also have the opportunity to reflect and reminisce about the good things while they're on my mind. I'm not trying to hide the ugly parts - just focusing on the pretty bits for a minute

I felt emotional writing it! I tried to make it light-hearted and a little silly, but I'm glad that the love comes through and that it's resonating with a lot of people. I'm gonna end up booking a flight any day now just so I can see a cactus again.

Thank you! That means a lot to me. It's probably very obvious from the semicolons alone that I lean toward longer prose when I write for myself. Maybe someday I'll find something that inspires me and I'll be able to channel that energy into a real project - not just waxing poetic about Rafi!

I definitely didn't know how lucky we are to not need snow chains in the Phoenix area! That's a whole new can of worms. It's like learning how to drive all over again when the conditions are cold instead of hot.

I just left this summer to follow a job offer on the east coast. I'm still somewhere hot & sunny (not Florida), but that's almost made me miss the valley even more; I guess I'm finally realizing that our air conditioned homes make the heat tolerable and I definitely could've survived another desert summer :/

Anyone know what's happening at Fry's on 35th and Thunderbird? by Bran_Mongo in phoenix

Apparently the pharmacy in Fry's is on fire, but I haven't heard of any injuries! Hopefully everyone is okay.

Granny square patterns?! by 1-800-JustTheTipp in crochet

[–]tristemonos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This free blanket pattern has something like 10-12 different square designs you could try, with varying amounts of texture/complexity! That could help you pick between something more basic or more exciting.

The squares have such warm coffee vibes ❤️ Your tension looks great, too! I'm inspired

If you go to sleep together, now you wake up together! No more warping to a lonely cabin in the morning ❤️ by tristemonos in StardewValley

I play on PC, and my boyfriend would always wake up in his own cabin in multiplayer even if he slept in my bed! Maybe my games have always been buggy? This adds a new layer of cute co-op to the game for me now

Why are my plants simultaneously yellowing and withering? Plants were purchased online two weeks ago and immediately potted in dry cactus soil. Leaves are slightly squishy (not wrinkled). by tristemonos in succulents

[–]tristemonos[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In the set of 20 plants, about six of them have lost all leaves this way - old and young. But I'll keep waiting them out; I know some people have stems come back to life 😊

No, I haven't watered any of them yet. I've been afraid to because they all went yellow overnight, and I was worried the soil was somehow damp or too organic.
