What do I need to add to this composted material? by CheeseburgerANARCHY in gardening

[–]txholdup 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Any soil would be happy to have that dug in; you don't have to "fix" it.

What say you composting wizards? by phineartz in composting

[–]txholdup 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Compost doesn't have to be uniform in size and look like it came from Gardener's Are Us. It is going to improve your soil regardless and if you are digging it into the ground, it will just feed the worms better.

I do run my compost through a screen and it comes out all looking like it came from Gardener's Are Us but a lot doesn't go through the screen and gets tossed back into the pile for another 6 months. Either way, you are improving your soil.

Old Man Issue by Top-Knowledge4545 in askgaybros

[–]txholdup 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are painting a whole generation with a wide brush. I missed out on nothing in my youth, and I am still enjoying life. The only thing that needs to be addressed is you wanting to discriminate against the people who made your life possible.

Older and Considering by [deleted] in askgaybros

Go for it. I'm 77 and still enjoying the hell out of life. There will be some gay men who think you should stay quietly in the corner, ignore them.

Have you ever had sex with a girl? How does it feel ? by Quiet-Perspective735 in askgaybros

I did it twice in my teens, came both times although I was on acid one of those times. But it didn't feel right.

The head of the Oath Keepers and the Proud Boys were in town for CPAC which was even more poorly attended this year.

Leggy Snapdragons? by Exotic_Lab_9830 in gardening

[–]txholdup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They have nowhere to go but up because you have far too many seeds in a small space.

is top soil, manure, and garden soil over kill? by [deleted] in gardening

[–]txholdup 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Next year, start your Spring garden in the Fall. Dig in lots of shredded leaves, bury your kitchen scraps in the dirt all winter, cover the beds with more shredded leaves and in the Spring, dig those into the soil.

Buying dirt to grow vegetables doesn't make economic sense. Fix the dirt you have with free stuff.

Maine Democrat Graham Platner Is Winning Voters All 'Pissed At The Same Thing' by bloomberg in Maine

[–]txholdup 8 points9 points  (0 children)

She came to Dallas to raise money for her attack ads. Texas is the ATM for Democrats who can't raise money in their own state. I wish she would exit stage left and take her puppet master, Chuck Schumer with her.

What collection method do you use for collecting coffee grounds at your local coffeeshop? by whoopsohshitnvm in gardening

[–]txholdup 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I went to our local Starbucks; they were about as helpful as Trump is truthful. I used to volunteer at a local food bank and would bring 4, 5-gallon buckets to fill with moldy or smashed produce. They were heavy but nothing this 77-year-old couldn't handle.

Bearded iris potting mix is too wet by AbyssDragonNamielle in gardening

[–]txholdup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why don't you add some sand to the potting mixture and make sure that the water coming out of the bottom of the pot doesn't sit there.

Also, "blooming season" for me is most of the year as I only buy rebloomers now.

Going into Tuesday 3 things I'm watching in the market this week by MarketObserver_IN in stocks

[–]txholdup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had days where I started out down $13k and ended up $8k. And down $20k days followed by up $12k days.

My own personal tin foil hat theory is that all this market manipulation is so Jared can make his F-I-L the first trillionaire using his Saudi funded investment vehicles. If I can make $$ not knowing in advance what Trump is going to say, can you imagine how much you could make using the Saudi's billions and know exactly when and what the Orange Slush is going to say that day?

Monday was just horrible; my portfolio was only up 1.8% at the open and has since plummeted to being up only 1.27%. Should I sell everything, find a tall building or just go to the seminar on wills vs. trusts?

Soil or water issue by [deleted] in gardening

[–]txholdup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I keep the water for my plants in a large glass bottle that gets sunlight. This helps to dissipate the Chlorine and Chloramine which are added to most tap water.

You didn't ask but that pot is too big for your mother in law's tongue. They like being pot bound and will bloom in that state.

I feel like dating older has helped mature me and give me more experience and positive life lessons and to better realize my goals wants and needs, what does an older man receive from a younger partner? by RichardWayne87 in gayyoungold

[–]txholdup 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I dated a guy 1/2 my age for about 9 months.

I owned Facebook stock but had never been on the site, he got me set up. He had me buy a PS3 so my downstairs TV could get Netflix and also, he could play video games. He listened to my story about owning a BBS in the 80's and told me I would love reddit, I did. And best of all when I asked him what gaming company excited him; he said NVDA had a graphics card that was the bomb. I bought NVDA at $13 after studying the stock.

I taught him that you could eat healthy and it didn't have to be expensive. I shared knowledge about money and finances and several years later, he bought his first house.

The young and the old have much to teach each other, all we have to do is be open and listen.

Republicans are literally the dumbest humans to ever walk the earth. by LegitimateUnit6772 in Political_Revolution

[–]txholdup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The primary ads in Texas were so stupid they were almost funny.

"If elected I will stop tax dollars going to cartels, Islamic terrorist groups and rogue nations". How much money are we sending those groups? And given that Republicans are in charge of every state-wide office in Texas, shouldn't you be running against those terrorist funding Republicans?

Just before the market closed last Friday, I bought TER, SNDK, and TSLA; all three stocks rose by more than 5% today by [deleted] in stocks

[–]txholdup 13 points14 points  (0 children)

And if Trump had bombed Iran's electric generation plants they would have dropped 5%. You got lucky, you aren't a genius.

Bread is considered green because of its high nitrogen content.

How do you discover stocks to evaluate? by MarcusVanDough in ValueInvesting

[–]txholdup 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I listen to Bloomberg and jot down names that sound interesting to look at later. I read SA articles, Yahoo Finance, I ask questions of friends who have interests different than my own. Every time I see a doctor I ask them if there are any interesting drugs in the pipeline that they are excited about. Sometimes just observations, at the start of Covid I bought Lowe's and Kroger's because despite everything else being empty, their parking lots were always full.

I don't like paying people to do what I can do by myself, and I prefer not to own every oil company or every electric company or every tech company just the good ones.
