I just use a pair of pointy nosed pliers and rip the hair out. Nose and ears. :) -
Any TECH. themed (sleep) dreams?
If you're trying to find symbolism and meaning in dreams you're going to end up confused and disappointed. When you're asleep your brain gets bored and starts playing "what if" scenarios to amuse itself. Those dreams will be affected by current circumstances in your real life but other than...- Outdated

Self Advocacy help
Sorry if I haven't been responding @MROSS but I really don't know the answers to any of your questions. I've always been a superb self advocate and I never even looked at the resource I posted because I've never needed such help. Prince or priest or plumber, I'm not intimidated by anyone and...- Outdated

Advice on reliable portable generator?
I think that's probably where the style started, desert regions, but now that's the way we also build a lot of homes in the tropics, except with much more veranda and an even lower pitch on the roof. This house is in suburban Darwin, houses tend to be a bit smaller there with much more living... -
How many of us have hyperphantasia?
My memories are like that, with sight, sound, smell, touch and emotional context too. My imagination is the same, it covers all the senses.To remember something I relive it, because of this I learnt very early on to not dwell on things. I was also able to accept a lot of what happened to me...- Outdated

Advice on reliable portable generator?
Out of curiosity I just had a look at some older Miami homes on the net because in Australia we recognised tall ceilings as a mistake fairly early on, once the air heats up in there it's trapped so the great majority of our homes are only single story with a low pitched roof and no room for an... -
Advice on reliable portable generator?
That's the way it seems to be here these days too, and a lot of people complain about the way our older houses were built because in general they were all designed before anyone had air conditioning. We have decent insulation in the rooves to protect us from summer heat but the windows are only... -
Useful intellectual phrase: "memory hole"
That's been happening since writing was first invented, and probably before then too with defaced cave paintings and carvings. There's a few historical events I lived through where my memory does not match modern versions of the stories, part of that will be to do with an old man's dodgy memory... -
Advice on reliable portable generator?
Humidity doesn't have much impact when the weather is pleasant though. Melbourne is also a very humid city and when you get a hot day there it's really hot, but they don't get all that many hot days. On the flip side of that though the cold winds they get in winter feel like they're stripping... -

You get the high humidity but you also get a break from the heat every year. In climate and in distance from the equator Miami is very similar to Brisbane. Get close to the equator and it really is more intense. -

Both my sister and I were bitten quite often when we were kids, we used to like playing with Huntsmans we caught in the house. I had no reaction at all to a bite, my sister used to get an itchy rash from a bite. There was no pain.- Outdated

They don't use a web to catch prey the way other spiders do, they just chase after things and grab them. Insects, small lizards and frogs, mice if they're small enough. Pretty much anything that moves.- Outdated

They are, they're completely harmless and even if they bite you it doesn't hurt. Most Aussies will refuse to hurt one, they're much loved and they also help keep the insects down around your home.- Outdated

Hi everyone, I built an app to find patterns
I think it's a great idea and would be a fantastic tool for the parents of teenagers regardless of whether or not they're autistic. What you say about not being able to see when you're caught up in the middle of it all is very true in most situations. Can't see the forest through the trees...- Outdated

Need help choosing adhesive for leather
No, what they discourage is you doing it yourself, then they get no fee. Take a child to the hospital with a bad cut and 9 times out of 10 they'll just use Super Glue on it. ;) -
