  We just turned a closet into a big shower- almot 5’ x 5’. Now we walk around and have conversations in there in the morning. Also, I’ve had two knee surgeries this fall and it’s awesome to have the extra space for a temporary bench and for my honey to step in and take my crutches.

  I ordered some. Ok, but not great. Should have stayrd in bed.

  Stay and vote!! Talk to your neighbors and vote!!

  Start by posting a pic of a pet. You’ll get upvoted and will get over your fear. If people do downvote or complain, just let it roll off and try again.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I hope Lemmy gets big enough to make the mainstream news...⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  There was another one about a year ago about bluesky or madtodon that also referenced the fediverse. I’ll look for it.

  Sometimes i kiss inanimate objects before i put them in the donation box.

  Wow. You can fall into that and lose two hours in a few minutes.

  Mortgage rates were in the teens in the early 80s.

  I say all the time how expensive it is to be poor now!! You kinda need a phone; you might find a cheap car but the insurance will be $$; i can barely leave my house without getting on a toll road; you might find a cheap apartment but the rent will include $200 in fees. Every interaction is designed to be profitable for someone and we’re losing.

  Practical is sexy.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I never understood what it was people did on Twitter. I understand it even less now that it is X.⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Agree. I don’t understand following a person instead of a topic. I did follow a few bars, restaurants, etc. to see happy hours info.

  It’s like Eucharistic adoration- somewhere someone is keeping it going.

  They sit by the door? I don’t understand. Like in a ponytail?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨when are the upcoming political elections held in america?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Check out vote411.org

  You can see what’s on ballots in different states. You’ll see that there will be elections in the spring for primaries - where they narrow the field for the bigger election in November.

  I’m mostly surprised that there’s been little response to the boat blasting.

  I got a tray of rotisserie chicken leg quarters (maybe 8 of them) for $5!!!

  We should have a post of cheap foods!

  Iced combo of lemonade, plain, and blueberry. Crazy refreshing.

  Worst part for me was when the rewards app at the tea shop wouldn’t work.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨When baking, if your oven can't reach the temperature stated in the recipe, do you then just adjust for time?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Could you add a small wireless fan to circulate air and make better use of the heat you have? Sort of a DIY convection?

  There are so many songs that refer to gypsy. I’m not sure if I’m supposed to sing along or not.

  Somewhere along the way that became southern engineering. My mom lived in Florida for awhile so it was a good dig at both the locals and the duct tape crowd -though i grew up repairing everything with duct tape and bailing wire. My husband is an engineer - right tool for the job guy. I’m like, "pass me that mallet and a wire hanger.)
