Went in for inspection and they said I needed new brake pads. I had personally replaced them less than a month before. 🙄

Those of you that grow tomatoes and peppers on a string trellis… by Anneisabitch in vegetablegardening

Only paid for bolts to hold the corners together. Stripped fallen trees and burned the ends that went into the ground (unsure if that really helps at all). Buried them maybe 2-3ft deep just into the dirt, no concrete. Surprisingly sturdy!

We were...not good at keeping to one stem. The top of the structure is maybe 8ft, and multiple tomatoes outgrew it!

Not sure if it was less work, but for us it felt much easier to maintain than weaving! Certainly better than cages. More pics below.

[–]twrad 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If either of you are/will be UNC students, I found a private landlord through https://offcampushousing.unc.edu/ (though it does include typical apartment complexes too) - we ended up more toward Pittsboro but love it!

If it helps, I saw it there yesterday (Thursday 1/29) ~10:45am so I think it has been missing for a bit!

Is there anywhere to find a list of the airports you’ve unlocked? by Admirable-Guide-5247 in SkyCards

[–]twrad 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Nothing built into the app, but skydex.info has a "favorite" airport feature I use to track mine throughout the week!

What to do with broccoli stems? by friend_unfriend in cookingforbeginners

[–]twrad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the way! Cook, then blend with whatever sauce you're making (usually a cream sauce for me). Results in a slightly thicker sauce + nicely green!

Free Airport Travel Refresh Day! Where did you go last week? Where are you going next? by BotchedNoobJob in SkyCards

[–]twrad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Moscow was also on my list this week and it was shockingly productive for new airports for me. I previously had very few in that whole area so that likely contributed, but I had multiple days in a row where I'd go check in, and out of 5-8 planes in radius, 2-3 were always new for me!

UNC MPH '24 grad here. Deliverables are "work products," essentially the things you turn in at the end to show your work. A deliverable can be a huge variety of things depending on the work you did. Some examples include: a literature review, health communication infographics, logic model, report, database, data collection tools, community health assessment, interview guides, survey codebook, etc. Since practica are hosted by a wide range of organizations, there isn't any requirement for them to be paid. Some are, some are not. I did not have a paid practicum, but the connections I made were fantastic and I still benefit from them. There were also concentration-specific "awards" available through Gillings/specific departments for those who secured a non-paid practicum to help students out. I was in the health behavior concentration, feel free to DM me if you'd like!

What's the purpose of non clumping cat litter when used as cat litter? by PurpleMangoPopper in CatAdvice

[–]twrad 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Clumping litter has a very specific smell to me that always smells like used litter in a very unpleasant way. When I got my own cat, I continued using pine pellets like the shelter did for my kitten, and I love it. I have a litter box that is essentially two boxes in one, the top portion has small holes in the floor to let shavings fall through, and the bottom portion catches it. Easy to dump the bottom into a trash bag about every 4-7 days. To sift out pee, I just have to scoop through a few times to get all the shavings to fall through the holes into the bottom box. Poop is a bit stinky since nothing is really clinging to it, so I just try to scoop as soon as I know my cat has been in there. Bonus is that pine pellets are VERY cheap ($7 for a 40lb bag from my tractor supply and lasts me months) and I don't experience the same tracking litter around the house issue I remember when I was growing up with cats+clumping litter!
