Not sure I've got one nearby, but I can look!
I'd eat that
Deep south, I'll look for them next time I'm at a Fresh Market.
I've heard of these but never knew what they were. Kind of remind me of a snack my mom would make with Ritz crackers.
Are they similar to Royal Dansk butter cookies?
$18/£13.3 for a single sleeve of biscuits off Amazon's US site. If I get them I'll have to hide the price from my partner.
Amen. Your answer is one of the few that is actually brutal advice that everyone should be given.
Something I've wanted to know, but have been too afraid to ask older friends, is does it get easier? Especially as the number of people dying keeps increasing and happening more and more frequently.
My top priority is to get myself in a good position to enjoy my 40's. I'm paying down debt, getting fit, and having health issues checked out and fixed. I'm also trying to improve my mental health by tackling bad habits and personality flaws that I'd always assumed weren't a big deal and/or would go away once I was an adult, but they haven't.
Thanks for the tip!
Interesting, I had searched to see if a community already existed before creating this one but didn't see it. Since lemm.ee is shutting down I'll leave it up, but if they migrate to a new instance I'll consider deleting it.
In this case I think it is beneficial to have a dedicated community where the expectation is that young people, while not excluded, are not going to generally be the ones participating in discussions. It's true that for now Lemmy has a relatively small user base, and that it's skewed toward older and male users, but that won't always be these case.
A quick search also shows at least 9 active "ask" communities besides the generic AskLemmy one. I don't think it's too much a stretch to have one dedicated to older men politely talking to one another and giving advice to themselves and others from an older male perspetive.
I'm finding it difficult to explain myself, but the vibe is just totally different on the AskMenOver30 subreddit than general "ask" subs. It's more mature and frank while also being courteous* and free from politics, conspiracies, and toxic masculinity. I would much rather be subscribed to and participate in a narrowly focused self-selected community like that then a generic AskLemmy community.
I'd just about given up on the dwarf sundew seeds I'd planted. After a couple months though there are at least a dozen small little sundews.
[Image description A very zoomed in picture of 3 tiny sundews. They look like red hairy spikes things sitting on wet green cut sphagnum moss.]
If you look closely, there are tiny hairs with dew all on the stalk.
[Image alt text: a blank white background with the flower stalk in front. The stalk is straight but then curves over to the right point back downward. On the left side of this arc is a closed flower from the previous day. At the apex is the currently blooming flower in profile. It's petals are a delicate pink. The part od the stalk going back down has curled up immature flowers which will bloom every 1 to 2 days as the stalk unfurls.]
This is a White Pitcher plant (Sarracenia leucophylla), East Alabama variety. That tiny little stalk is its first true leaf and it's first pitcher.
Like other temperate pitcher plants, the seeds needed to experience a period of cold, aka stratification, to be viable. I kept the seeds in a Ziploc bag with sphagnum moss in my fridge for 60 days before planting.
[image alt text: Picture taken from just inside a tent looking out the open tent flap. A pair of sock clad feet stick out onto a rock ledge. The tent is only a few meters from the edge of a cliff. The view looks out over a wide river valley, and in the far distance are mountains. The river has been dammed and in the center of the image is Weiss Lake, which looks vaguely like an alien from the classic Space Invaders arcade game.]
The view is from Cherokee Rock Village, on top of Lookout Mountain. They have one of the best campgrounds in the state, highly recommend.
