I don't get it... What did you look up??

An incredible harvest!!! Amazing. Pickles all winter for you! I think you're right about mulch. It also helps with bugs and bacteria in the soil which help make the nutrients more available and give tastier

I have a Finnish woman too doors up. Her Aussie husband is literally building her a sauna today.

I don't think that for the record. I think of your literature and how wonderful it is, and your diversity, and how strikingly beautiful Nigerians can be. I always think it's unfair that people say Nigerians

Stereotypes are useful, and a good source of comedy, but they dehumanise folk. My husband does drink a fuck ton of tea though, and he stops at roundabouts to let other people through and always apologises

Yes, like Temu products in Etsy or AI music. Glad Tidal and Spotify have both taken stances on this, particularly Tidal.

we turn that long struggle for autonomy over to another entity I was thinking about this yesterday, how people are just giving up to it. Here, take what little brain I have left, I'm sick of thinking make

As part of the community rules I HAD to comment on two others or id be reprimanded!

Ha no way, the boy had to die and she will be alone for many, many years, until one day, a stranger arrives by sea... I'd think Nina would have had to grow up fast, fending for herself and seeing so much

Oh gosh thanks ever so much!!!

I was pleased with that last line! It didn't even occur to me that she would go with the mother. Her coughing was meant to imply she would be dead soon too. Nina is going to circle that tin for days wondering

Love is irrational. Indeed. Thank goodness for love.

I think little treasures are familiar to all of us, aren't they? Even as adults. I pick up shells off the beach and smile to find them in coat pockets where if forgotten them. I think of outsiders to Hive

@agmoore Thanks so very much for reading it and your lovely comment. Did you ever read Z for Zachariah? I had her in mind with the man tugging at her skirts.

You're welcome. I think I understand that people use it to chase money - I get it. But it's ultimately dishonest.

Such is the way of things.

Your opening made me think someone woudl be hit by lightning! Perhaps the real lightning was the revelation - that if you cheat on someone you might come to regret it!

I had to go through a lot of posts to find a piece of writing without an Ai image - I hope! I'm getting so sick of AI written content with Ai images - I just don't want to read them. I think in the end

It strikes me that without apologies, our wrongs can fester inside of us - they're necessary for our peace of mind. That's just as heavy a cost as losing your memories of someone. I really liked your idea!

Well, that perhaps is worth the entry fee then!
