I have cardinal fledgelings on three sides of my house. The’ve been yelling their dumb little heads off for multiple days now. I thought it was the adults because that’s all I’d been able to see, but then I saw a loud little baby in the barberry, and mama cardinal perched above me ready to throw down if I made a wrong move.

They are incredibly annoying, I’m guessing just one family, but I’m super glad my advanced druid yard has given them a good platform to grow and thrive.

DTMF - dial tone, motherfucker?

Bleed reduction pills, painkillers, and mediocre quality non-armor clothing that gives you a feeling of comfort.

A ring of animal friendship that gives +10 to all skills related to animals, and -1 to all skills related to humans.

And a curse upon looting that cannot be dispelled that causes the cursed to always speak bluntly, to the point, with no deception, and to be frequently misunderstood as a result.

You ever see those coin tornado things?

This is like that but for grapes on a small scale ;)

Hmm… if it’s alive, how do you wash it? Or do you just water it and let it eat your dead skin and body oils as nutrients…?

I don’t think I like that at all.

(And yes I did read… about half of this, and skimmed the rest looking for an answer. It’s only about how it works and how it’s made, i don’t think they considered that practicality at all for this research, but I may have missed it)

There is a bit about glycerol-plasticization and the chemical solvent resistance resulting, but I’m not really sure how well that translates to household clothes washing, nor the mechanical stresses involved.

All in all very cool, but making clothing from it doesn’t really sound super practical at this point, to me.

I got a dress with pockets the other day. I bought it specifically because it has pockets. Its not my style aesthetically but its my style functionally!

Sadly its made of the sort of fabric that hangs heavy and stretches nicely (a type of fabric I actually love), probably a 4-way knit with spandex blend, which means if I use the pockets for much of anything, it pulls down and looks not great because it clings to every single bit of body under it

Still, good place for hands to go so I can show off that it has pockets!!! 😜

I’m always disappointed when they don’t leave big dishes like this to decay as a basin. Im sure its because they were hoping to resume use of it at some point, but still

It would be lovely to have left it to fill in, if its just going to slowly degrade and collapse anyway, it would become a little oasis for birds and lizards and such for a while, until enough holes form to leak everything out.

How else were you supposed to bring trojan horses inside? If you’re cold, they’re cold!

As long as I don’t end up back in highschool as a result…

My mom had something similar to this for serving dinner rolls. You put a cloth napkin in the bottom, draped over the sides and all, then put in the rolls, then wrap the cloth napkin around them to hold the steam and warm.

Idk if thats what yours are for, but could be.

This is great for people who get lost in paragraphs, I suppose? Like theres only a small bit of text on screen so theres only so much you can forget before moving on to the next umm… blurb…?

Does it count as a home studio if you just don’t care how big of a mess you make and do things wherever you feel like?

Cuz I paint in bed. I do clay work on the carpeted floor of my spare room. I make beady things on the couch. Who cares if a paint drip gets on my table? Or blanket? I mean I have ruined so much clothing with paint over the years because I have no concept of “work clothes”, what’s a drip here or there?

Ironically I make more mess of my own self when painting walls than I ever have messed up the environment I’m painting… I don’t use painters tape or drop cloth, I’m just very good at cutting lines, but I’ll always ruin whatever I’m wearing to do it. For whatever reason.

If you shoot for the moon, but miss, you’ll still end up among the stars from everyone else’s view! 😊

Good genes do a ton of heavy lifting.

Do you bother blind people about how they could experience the world if they were sighted, too?

Like its a moot point, idk what you hope to gain here other than being a dick about how your way is better when I have no way to ever know, and you can never see my point of view either.

Thats not better.

Just because I’m not into what you are into doesn’t mean my life is lacking. You like chocolate, I don’t like sweets much at all but if I have to choose a flavor, I like the taste of un-flavored foods as much as I like a strong curry.

Same thing. You see my life as lacking because of what you think I should like based on what you like, but it’s plenty rich in ways that actually speak to what I like.

Gross.

I’m not.

Horniness sounds like a massive burden, and romantic relationships are just friendships with touchy-feely stuff and lots of baggage I’m not into.

Yea, sorry, ace/asexual and aro/aromantic or not into relationships that aren’t platonic :)

most of what you want to do

Thats true, and all this stuff might just be outdated info :) its entirely possible the web clients have been adapted, and we just aren’t aware of it because… who knows everything?

I’m open to advice, but yes, I make no effort to be attractive. I’m clearly not a great judge, but I wouldn’t fuck me ;)
