Thank you OP!

Seems like you mean we, not they

Patch testing likely wouldn’t have made a difference, this is about extended use that probably broke down her skin’s barrier over time.

When I had a baby and then got COVID, I started washing my hands more often, and really too often. Using the same gentle non scented antibacterial soap I had been for years, I turned my hands into a dry cracked and bleeding mess, and when I used the same gentle non scented oatmeal moisturizer I have used for years, I ended up with insane burning on the backs of my hands, and a bright red burn/rash. This was all in about a week.

I stopped using hot water to wash, and only used soap on my palms/fingers. I waited for my skin to repair itself. Now I continue to use that same soap and lotion with no problem. It was never the products that were the problem, it was over use.

That’s not necessarily a false sense of privacy if it works. There’s an inconvenient barrier to searching vote history and if you do it in the current system you’d be recognized as petty at least. Easing access is not going to make Lemmy better.

Yeah, I’m half surprised there isn’t “under consume” on the list and they stop letting people in who don’t spend enough money

Or just keep adding lamps. My bathrooms have lamps now instead of overhead lights. My Livingroom has 4 lamps. Someone please send help.

I just started Maybe You Should Talk to Someone by Lori Gottlieb. So far a delight! By a therapist about therapy, and just the kind of humor I like in non fiction :)

Once my phone breaks, I spend $150-250 on a “new” old pixel. a couple gens behind, but honestly when I get the next one, it’s always basically the same, so I don’t know why I’d buy new. My current 4S’s battery is pretty shot, so it’s about time to upgrade again, but I’ll be sad to lose the tinier size and headphones jack. I never use the jack, but I like that it’s there as a backup.

Wake him up

$1500 a month? I wish!

And their children made to drink from public water supply**

If this were written for Americans it’d have the length of the snake in feet. Bowling lanes is such an absurd length comparison because you’re not allowed to walk on them, so you don’t really know how long they are anyway.

I mean there are plenty of reasons. Some seasons it rains everyday here. Get off your high bike.

Do you only work 3 days a week or are you subtracting your hour long fault commutes?

OP spend over one full day a week commuting. Gag worthy

I grew up in an almost 3000 sq foot home with only 5 kids. I know you were using hyperbole with the ten kids thing, but it was cramped with 7. Always sharing bedrooms, never actually getting your own space, no playing music without bothering someone, hard to do homework when your sister is practicing her oboe. If you want a dining room table that fits everyone and a living room where your family can stretch out for a movie, you need the space. (Also I grew up in Florida so no basement or attic. Not sure how those figure into sq footage)

Sometimes the thing that sets a dog off is just that they’re older and confused. Dogs do sometimes just snap with no warnings, same as humans.

I think you mean much cheaper than what WE pay for them to stay at his hotel. That’s tax payers’ money. Fuck that guy.

I’m guessing fast lefters don’t even click on posts about Trump at all. It’s like he’s not relevant to them ( especially the ones delusional enough to suggest not voting for Biden, it’s like they’ve totally forgotten that means we end up with trump)

Some dogs get older and I assume confused and just snap. My grandmother’s dog, sweetest girl, golden retriever, service dog, previously good with other animals and cats. My Grandmom brought home a kitten and the dog mauled it. Do not trust dogs. Just like people they can do something totally out of character.

I’m not saying those things are morally worse or something, I’m just responding to OPs question about what merits a tip. I’m just outlining the etiquette.

If you have above average service needs, that’s when a tip is appropriate. It’s not your fault you have an allergy, but it creates more work, so a tip is appropriate.

Also it’s very common for waiters to tip out kitchen staff
