  • Which patreons do you support financially?

    Jump

  • Just a handful, but I usually will add a new one when it hooks me enough that I can't stop binging it.

  • Does anyone else find waiting physically exhausting?

    Jump

  • I find I can generally wait, but I experience pain when a group decision can't be made. Just pick one already. We're not disarming a bomb, we're trying to get some dinner.

  • ALICE detects the conversion of lead into gold at the LHC

    Jump

  • Lead, thallium, mercury... metals not friendly to direct human contact. I find it rad that if we add a few more protons we get a pretty, shiny metal that won't melt our brains.*

  • Many amine endings are like that for me. I'm hooked with fun action, adorable creatures, and badass robots, and then it just derails into endless monologuing.

    But watching something when I'm not into it? Sometimes, just so I know what happened in the end. If I like some element of it enough, like the setting or one of the actors. Other times, a wiki plot synopsis will be enough to sate the curiosity. I'm getting better about not forcing myself to finish something I'm just not into.

    Do I still have to retake my classes based on this?

    Jump

  • Ah this sucks. Would your advisor or the registrar know if they would accept credits for these courses from another school... and if there are any summer programs available... so that you wouldn't have to wait until fall semester?

  • My dearest Lemmy, what is the appliance you have the most beef with?

    Jump

  • I live next to protected wetlands and in a generally swampy area. Yes, there are clouds of insects.

    I'm not a fan of spiders and dealing with cobwebs, but since moving here, I have declared a truce with them. We try not to keep any lights on near doors to minimize bugs getting into the house when we come and go. And UV sticky traps are very effective and always shock me with how many they can accrue overnight. We have a regular bug service coming too. Creepy crawlies are just part of life here.

  • My dearest Lemmy, what is the appliance you have the most beef with?

    Jump

  • The hvac control panel.

    The furnace and ac units are both great, but the control panel will sometimes just, idk, dissociate. I can change settings and it displays them, but they don't "take". It won't relay those changes to its bigger brethren. In order to snap it back to reality, I have to go out to the garage and flip the breaker because there's no other way to power cycle it.

    There are spiders in the garage. And they are prolific with their webs, especially where I need to walk to get to the breaker panel.

    So when the hvac panel glitches, it's a whole ordeal to fix it.

    What games have you and your cat co-discovered thru randomness and play?

    Jump

  • My mom and her calico would play tag. It started as peek-a-boo where she hid and the cat stalked her, but then kitty would run off and wanted to be stalked back. When either one was found, you had to go "boo!" with spooky claw fingers.

  • Are you able to hear your blood flow/ heartbeat in your ear?

    Jump

  • Yeah, chronically low. Technically just barely within normal, but too low to donate. I've got other things going on, and see my doc every 3-6 months (with labwork). I guess it's just normal enough to not be fiddled with now yet still annoying.

  • Are you able to hear your blood flow/ heartbeat in your ear?

    Jump

  • I hear it frequently too and bp is low-normal. I can hear it when my ear is laying on a pillow, and I also hear my ear moving with the pulse against the fabric, not just hearing the pulse on its own. This will be in the middle of the night (i.e. no activity, low resting heartrate). But I can also sometimes hear it when I'm sitting upright. I hear it after doing cardio, which may be normal. The ear wiggling thing against the pillow irritates me tho because it keeps me awake and I prefer side sleeping.

  • What's the dumbest couple dispute you've ever had?

    Jump

  • I imagine she formerly worked at a Lonestar Steakhouse. That or she had some affiliation with Texas. Being that these were restaurant folk, I'm leaning toward the first.

  • what prank/petty revenge did you get away with?

    Jump

  • My husband did this to his mom! She was not a hoarder by any means but had a decent collection of flow blue porcelain. Some of it was displayed in such a way that anyone who was not her was terrified to just walk near it for fear of bumping it and causing catastrophe.

    Hubby found a Kubrick done in a similar blue/white pattern and he strategically put it amongst her breakables to see how long it would be before she noticed. It took about a year before she said something.

    He ended up finding another version of the little blue & white bear and did it again. She's gone now, and I hadn't thought of those bears in a while. Thank you for that. It's a very fond memory.

  • I've had a few relatives with this mindset. My advice is try the comfortably now and find a little part time gig later to supplement income and provide activity.

  • More of an informal poll, but do you cover your mouth when you yawn when you're alone at home?

    Jump

  • I was not taught to cover my mouth but I married a mouth coverer. Am a convert now. But I don't think I cover when I'm alone.
