    Why does hot tub chlorine smell more than pool chlorine

    The heat - like chemistry and what not .. maybe ?? Idk I but I’ve convinced myself it’s definitely the heat

    Now solve my wedding problem tomorrow.
    Cousin's son is getting married
    His mom married a pedophile, my cousin spent lots of time with my family and spoke at my dad's funeral and made everyone cry saying my dad was his hero (my dad was awesome)
    I'm assuming his mom, pedophile wife, won't be there but I worry about other cousins who dislike me and my brother cause we had parents who fixed our teeth and doted on us.
    How do I make this less awkward? all family gatherings have been awkward my whole life.
    (Btw I'm but a snob....much. 🤣...but I was lucky to have parents who worked really hard to give us an idyllic life and didn't assume welfare was the way to work the system)

    Idk - when I feel awkward I just stop feeling awkward and feel awesome instead 🤷‍♂️

    Two gas stations in my town are having a price war and I am reaping the benefit.

    God, I wish this would happen here. Prices are ridiculous

    It’s almost 50¢ per gallon lower in my town than it is in the neighboring towns. I can almost afford to fill up my tank between paychecks

    Define bad ?? Just what the individual sees as bad ? So it’s up to each individual- either way I don’t think it’s wrong to be kind to anyone - someone I think is bad you may not and vice versa

    Life hack - anytime you’re at a garage sale and they are selling gas cans - always pick one up - I’ve got like prolly 10 gas cans - that I picked up over the years - for maybe a buck a piece - and if there is ever a gas war here I’m ready baby… otherwise I’m just the weird guy with all the gas cans in his shed - nothing comes without sacrifice

    Smart. I can tell you laundry baskets DO NOT work.

    OK but if a bad person is capable of doing better or capable of learning to do better by someone else setting boundaries than aren’t I doing them a disservice by letting things slide?

    Oh I guess I didn’t understand what you were trying to convey there - I was thinking just being kind to a random person who others may perceive as bad - but you’re talking about ppl in your life - maybe a friend or ex or relatives etc yes?? I’m that case I don’t think it’s unkind to just not be around someone who it not bringing you joy or lifting you up - it took me a long time to realize this - so if you mean by accepting someone’s behavior that is in some way causing you any kind of stress Or anxiety or whatever the case - that is you being kind - then i guess it’s only bad for you - and in that case it really only matters yiur take on it - personally I tell my kids if a friend or family or whoever is not bringing joy to your life - call them out and say hey this is how I feel and if that’s a big deal to them or they don’t consider your felling fugg ‘m life is too short to be worrying about that chit - idk I prolly still not getting what you mean 🤷‍♂️ and tl didn’t proof read 😉

    Family. I was the only relative who went to this wedding today. One was having a garage sale and the other wanted to only come if he could bring an entourage to remind him to go.

    It was also super hot. I think I sweated in places I didn't know could

    I’m sad for the ones who got married. By the looks of it, seems like nobody wanted to be there 🥺

    They had lots of lovely friends their age there. It's always family that doesn't really want to be at weddings since it really is more a party for the friends

    What's sad is he'll never have a relationship with his aunt nor grandparents on our side either. Luckily he has an aunt and uncle on his mother's side and grandparents too.

    I also commend my cousin for raising a really lovely son against all odds. My cousin and his wife have not had it easy at all.

    (I also dreamed I was eating raw leeks.... guessing I shouldn't try that)

    French toast is my frenemy

    I don't like it if it's normal bread but if it's thick artisanal bread then I'll enjoy it

    Challah is best but I don’t care much as long as the maker isn’t stingy with the wash. It shouldn’t even be a wash- It should be a soak. If it’s not a little mushy I don’t want it

    I've actually never tried that bread before but it looks yummy
    HIGHLY recommend
