"I just don't get why people would like 'not' being set on fire. Like, it's just a little fire, what are you, combustible fats wrapped in flammable organic fabrics? I guess it's simply that it's not being set on fire that they like. It's so weird and frustrating."

Those PVC ball valves love to seize up, best practice is to exercise them every month or so so they can't bind.
Until you replace the valve just use some channel locks to actuate it.
Well yea ,of course they did. If there is a facet of reality that doesn't make tankies and their ilk look good, it's obviously western propaganda. No other options.
I haven't heard a single instance of this actually occuring.
I'd bet my last dollar you haven't either.
Omg Biden is genociding those poor poor oil executive's profit margins!
From the river to the sea, oil exec profits will be drastically elevated!
I think the impact from illegal immigration is a fraction of a fraction of the impact from letting VC 'invest' in housing.
Yea, these are the real communists, not like all those other communists, with their fake communism.
Is anyone on Lemmy worried about socialism?
Who is this for?
Your mouth is agape, ready to receive your foot.
Seriously though, please seek help lmao
Putin says unranians don't deserve the power to light up their homes, or the power to have anything more than rubble..
Are you calling his eminence, Putin, a psychopath?
Nah.
The term "forcing" implies punishment for not obeying.
Stay mad 🤷
Lmao 'bullied'?
They gave you swirlies until you caved, didn't they?
Idk, I didn't stand for the pledge and they didn't disappear me into a white van or exile me to Cuba 🤷
Maybe, and stop me if I'm going too far here, maybe you weren't aware it isn't forced. That's fine because now you've been handed a personal account of the opposite to be true, I'm sure you will reassess you stance 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
You could have asked.. I mean, you were in a building staffed with people paid to answer questions and inform you about the world.
Real "please clap" energy
That filth goes to wherever they can troll people. The minute we ban .ml you'll see blahaj become the cesspit.
Lol you're interviewing at a Wendy's.
"Options" aren't exactly something you have a lot of.

After more research and some lucky talks I believe this to be epidote from tailings out of the Wolverine Mine, a few miles from where I found these pieces.

Was rock hounding on the southern shore of Lake Superior. Found these green crystal deposits that formed like geodes, specimens are small, the largest is about the size of a corn kernel. A local said it could be chlorasolite but I don't think it matches based on color and clarity. Any thoughts would be appreciated!
How to propagate ficus elastica properly (afaik)
Some big dumby with my name (T'was me) posted earlier this week with a totally not correct way to propagate ficus elastica (rubber tree, tineke) from a leaf. So anyway here is the proper way to prop it with pictures.
‐-------------------------------------------‐------------------
- Step one: mark where you would like to make your first cut (i use a loose zip tie). This cut will make the mother tree bush out at the highest node. Plan ahead, and make your cut.
‐-------------------------------------------‐------------------
- Step two: process the props by cutting up from the bottom every 2 leaf nodes. leave 4-6 leaves/nodes at the very end of the piece (this last chunk is your reward, you are doing great).
‐-------------------------------------------‐------------------
- Step three: Remove the lower leaf entirely from each piece, and the lowest 2-3 leaves on the largest piece. !
‐-------------------------------------------‐------------------
Step four: dip the bottom of your cuttings into rooting hormone. Be generous.
‐-------------------------------------------‐------------------
- Step five: firmly grasp your new cutting and gently cram them into the pot you forgot to fill up with a fast draining potting soil before you started. Be sure to completely cover the lower node and keep the dirt about as high as the remaining leaf-node.
‐-------------------------------------------‐------------------
- Step six: Put the smaller props in any excessively humid environment where they can still get some indirect light. I use my favorite clear tote under a canopy, lightly sealed. Keep the soil moist.
Roots should form in 6-12 weeks. Some may take a long time, some may die. I'd bet youre glad you made 5 now, huh?
If you know what to do with all these leaves please let me know;
