She hands small cuts out as samples. I asked to buy some to hand out one year as gifts while hostel traveling and she gave me a bunch for free.
Not sure where you are but you might want to check local small makers/ farmers market. The soap lady at my local farmers market has the best soaps - I no longer use anything else for showering. It looks pricey but the bars are large and last a very long time. She finally has an online shop. https://skincarebyfeleciai.com/collections/soap
I'm doing this now. I have to limit the size of the area im re organizing to what i can manage in a day or two. And if I don't finish I put things in bags to keep it organized until I can get back to it.
Some great recommendations from industry folks already.
But if you're not frequently in such high volume environments and you want something for the occasional concert you may want to start with cheaper options.
Don't take your hearing for granted - hearing loss is disabling and isolating - whatever you choose it is important to have something comfortable and convenient to carry that you will use and is up to the demands of the environment you'll be using them in.
I have Eardial for concerts (1-2/yr if that these days). ~$30. They are very comfortable, fit well (even though most earbuds pop out of my ears), easy to clean, and have a small clip on carrying container. Manufacturer says 11db reduction. Great for music but conversation in crowds is a little muffled. I've had them for a few years (prepandemic) and there's no sign of deterioration since they are lightly and gently used.
That put a lot into a new perspective for me. Thanks for sharing.
Big ask but I'd love a translate button. Even shitty translations are OK. Sometimes content in other languages is of interest and I struggle through as best I can.
For now since it's all new to me - I'm just subscribing to all the overlapping communities/ magazines that interest me that i stumble across. I can easily scroll past duplicates. But eventually things will shake out to preferences in community vibe and I can prune back then.
I think it's less likely they'll turn a blind eye these days. Oakland was similar but there was a massive crackdown on artists wherehouse spaces after the GhostShip fire (36 people lost their lives) .
Habitual lurker checking in. On kbin and loving the difference in vibe and waiting patiently for the migration to boost the communities I used to frequent.
I'm trying to boost and upvote as I scroll. I've feel like I've commented more here than I have in the last several years on reddit.
Tried to make a beer- themed magazine but I have no clue what I'm doing.
