I’ve been trying no-discard-micro-starters. I keep 8 g in the fridge, and build over a few days to bake. Not sure how viable it is long-term but it seems to be working so far. Would love anyone’s input if they have more information about long-term viability.

Someone recently gave me a culture, and it feels like a curse. I’ve kept them before and managed to escape… Here I am, a slave to bread once again.

I had the same serious of thoughts, but also thought it said “blonde girl” and so wasn’t as excited for the movie.

I committed myself to a run this afternoon but felt weak when the time came, so i tested it out and only ran two miles. I’m glad i went out.

For me it is important to maintain momentum, so if my track record is getting a little iffy I’ll be more vigilant about going out and doing the thing and not putting it off.

Is it illegal for them to delete messages? I had always been under the impression that FOIA only covered government.

Magic erasers?! Like the ones I used to get at the at supply store?

I’ve been putting things out on a towel when that happens, and putting the towel away after. So far so good, but I haven’t been cooking much recently.

What about muddy dog feet? 😂 That’s my shoe rule too, and I also second your laundry practice. I’m not sure I’ve ever washed some of the pants I own…

Yes, I spent years breaking the screen of this phone and eventually replacing it. I’ve finally got a screen protector and it’s been great… But the screen will almost certainly crack when you remove it. Bummer about the extra cost.

What is a postmarketeo??

My phone still has an aux jack : humble brag:

It’s a pixel 3a from at least 6 years ago :opposite of a humble brag:

…I actually love the shape and function of this phone. I only wish it had security updates, and didn’t have Google.

As a lifelong washer by hand, I would call those very clean dishes!

I want true cleaning hacks. I just got a dishwasher last week for the first time in my life and it’s a huge time saver. What else is like that? The most common sense of course is putting things away after you use them, and another hack is cleaning the kitchen before bed, but what else? Does wiping down the shower every time I use it help? Should I get a used roomba? Are there any roomba-type-objects that mop? Give me the knowledge please.

I just got one for the first time in my life last week. I was suspicious, but it’s… splendid.

Agreed, “cloak” feels bigger and heavier than “shawl.” Cloaks aren’t necessarily specific though: you might get coats, or ponchos, or shawls.

Maybe search “shawl cloak”?!

Edit: The user below has it! Search “rechteckmantel.”

When I was very young (and screaming on a flight), I remember a flight attendant bringing two Styrofoam cups to my mom to put over my ears. It helped immensely! This might be easier than the technique described above? I’ll read again and try this though.

Pressure changes still hurt me immensely, but I’ve developed my own way of dealing with it.

That’s the question! These are satellite images from the notorious El Salvadorian prison from 2024. The image is viral online with people claiming this is a pile of bodies and blood, but that’s unsubstantiated (and the image is from before Trump took office). Another idea is that it’s a pile of construction materials and clay.

I’m ready for the general strike. That’s our power.

I love that your esteem for the old movies has improved based on how bad the new ones are.

But we’re all being smothered in their nut stained beds, brother. For them to lie in their beds would be to accept retaliation of their party and fight back, not to take it. They deserve the flak but are seemingly not brave enough to save us all.
