If you are feeling sad and hopeless that is completely understandable, but it's also a luxury we can't afford right now. Here's a list of some great organisations helping on the ground, just as a handy guide:
@NomDePume@jamitimes@AniBWaugh@Kairo_Anatomika Their tops usually start to curl in a certain way before they drop spores. If you watch some YouTube videos about DIY mushroom growing kits, they'll tell you what to look for.
@XiranJayZhao As someone whose job is cheese, my first question is- what kind are they eating?! There are so many types, they could be eating anything from Epoisses to Monterey Jack and those are two very, VERY different things..
@PeterOlivier They've actually started doing this (not the drones, bringing in beavers) in parts of Oregon. Working with farmers so they can monitor what they do and where they are!
@jennifercarolyn When I went to see Come From Away, my heart was in my throat for the Muslim man through the whole thing, especially once it came time for them to reboard the planes. They haven't a CLUE.
@BittrScrptReadr Devastating. One of my quiet career goals was to work with him. He was so brilliant and beloved, B99 was an amazing blend of his comedy chops and dramatic skills.
@sewistwrites I honestly don't remember in numbers, but I absolutely could tell it was based on value (ie- my guitar cost more than two of X). I'm not sure HOW much, but it was universally more than 4, plus small things in stocking. Nothing extravagant- but I also was too young to know prices.
@constans I once read an article that hypothesized how different societal cultures in colonizers changed the gun culture debate in different regions. They suggested honor culture was a main driver in Southern gun violence, where small slights created outsized violent reactions.
@lingerie_addict One of my biggest gripes is with the "fauxpaque" cotton thats being used now where you can see when you hold it up, how cheaply made it is. As if they skipped threads in the weave. Makes repairs less sturdy!
@spacenerdboi Out of curiosity, you're Gen Z right?
Gen Z is going through similar growing phases that millennials went through, and you've been in your "social purity" phase for a bit. If it goes like ours, you'll start to transition (hopefully) into the phase you seek. For the most part..
@HighnessOphelia My Great Aunts never had children and they had PLENTY of nieces and nephews (and great-ones when the time came) to love them, care, visit with them when they got older til they passed. Love is how you make it.
@kissingadawong @nohohankpilled I work in a restaurant and I often get people tell me I'm the nicest server they've had and I'm just ??? ...I'm polite and just make them feel welcome, how does everyone else treat you?!
@DehraMcGuireMD Ok thank goodness. I've tried the wet paper towel thing but sometimes it makes that horrific squeaky noise right into my ear and I'm like...Nope!
@DehraMcGuireMD Ok please help me with the ears thing because I'm not shoving it deep in there (just doing the very beginning of the canal) but I can never seem to get even the outer rim clean with anything else. Is that ok?
