I had a basil plant I neglected like hell and barely managed to keep alive for ~2 years. By the end of its life after several rounds of barely surviving me forgetting to water it for a week or two, its stems had become woody. I don't know if all mature basil stems harden or if that was a consequence of my plant abuse

For instance (no spoilers) unit groups are built-in to base management. No hotkeys or group micro management required. It happens automatically as a functional result of more obvious concerns.

as someone who struggles with unit groups in AoE (the only RTS I play, cuz I suck at it lol) this intrigues me

yeah there's a string of lovely waterfront parks from 55th St all the way up to Inwood (northernmost Manhattan). the area around 79th St boat basin is particularly nice

i feel like the main thing contributing to my depression is not having a full time job lol

Hugh O'Neill, Earl of Tyrone (Irish: Aodh Mór Ó Néill; c. 1550 – 10 July [N.S. 20 July] 1616) was an Irish lord and key figure of the Nine Years' War. Known as the "Great Earl", he led the confederacy of Irish lords against the English Crown's conquest of Ireland during the Elizabethan era.

Numbers game (en.wikipedia.org)
 

The numbers game, also known as the numbers racket, the Italian lottery, Mafia lottery, or the daily number, is a form of illegal gambling or illegal lottery played mostly in poor and working-class neighborhoods in the United States, wherein a bettor attempts to pick three digits to match those that will be randomly drawn the next day.

Exploding Tree (en.wikipedia.org)
 

A tree may explode when stresses in its trunk increase due to extreme cold, heat, or lightning, causing it to split suddenly.

 

I always had trouble showering, bc it's boring, and I hate it, but mostly my long hair is really difficult and time consuming to wash properly. (I can't cut it short bc I have a part time adult entertainment job, and honestly, it's my one physical feature I'm actually kinda proud of.)

A few years ago when I was doing way worse, I'd go 1–2 weeks between full showers if I didn't have a gig. I'd bird bath my pits, parts, & feet but not wash my hair cuz I just. couldn't do it. Didn't fuckin have it in me.

So one day I walked into the hairdresser down the street and asked "Do you guys do just a hair wash? Sorry if that's a weird question" and they're like, "Yeah, why not! No problem, is $15 ok?" I was honestly surprised it was that inexpensive, so I said "Yes please!"

For the rest of the time I lived near there, if I got a mental block against washing my hair, I'd just go to the salon. Didn't even get it dried or anything. It was just so nice that a couple of kind ladies existed who were willing to help me deal with that problem for a very fair price and with zero judgment. Nobody ever said a word about how dirty my hair was, they just washed it and were nice to me.

I'm really grateful for them. And, I'm doing better now, which I'm also grateful for.
