  • I was going to ask, how are they defining "attack"? Having dildos thrown at their vehicles? Being criticized? Apparently an attack is exercising your first amendment rights.

  • Oh, you mean that pedophile abuser Donald Trump who loved to hang out and party with his best friends Jeff Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell, both of whom went to prison for being pedos?

  • So this guy is a lovely deep color and smells like a perfect ripe pineapple, better than what I typically smell when choosing a pineapple in the grocery. Are you saying the core may be large and if I wait longer the core will shrink?

  • Yeah, I will. The plant has the 2 pups growing off the stalk. I was thinking I could take one off and plant it, and leave the other one on to see what it does.

  • That makes sense. Also a smaller fruit would theoretically be getting more energy from the plant and maybe develop more sugars?

  • That's what I've read before, that they're one-and-done. But my cousin just told me he grew a second one from a plant he had, and that an uncle of ours in Hawaii said the 3rd generation is the sweetest -- so I'm not so sure. Maybe Hawaii's climate is more conducive?

  • In terms of starting them, it's been hit and miss. This is the 3rd time I've tried and the first time I've succeeded at getting a top to root. I recall I trimmed away more flesh and peeled more leaves off the bottom than I had done before, and I think I was much more patient when it was in water to wait for roots to emerge.

    My understanding is they like well draining soil and don't like it too wet. I watered it about once a week with about 6 oz water -- watering the plant itself so the water is primarily trapped in the bottom of the leaves and maybe the soil gets an incidental light sprinkle -- and a bromeliad fertilizer every other week. It was outdoors during the summer but once it dropped into the mid 50s at night I brought it indoors. (ETA I'm in zone 10a or b).

    Since this is a giant sample size of 1 I'm definitely not going to claim any definitive must-dos. Just reporting on what I did.

  • It makes sense if you're growing crops in the US. planting fields are measured in acres, and plants should get X inches of water per whatever time period. They're typically using sprinkler systems so the water is going everywhere, not just directed around the plant as we would in a home garden.

  • There's a video going around today with a reporter following Trump down some hallways as he's talking about blue slips, and in this 21 second video we can see at least 8 pictures of him lining the walls. Dude just cannot get over himself

  • Waymo Just Reprogrammed Its Robotaxis to Drive Less Safely

  • I've ridden in Waymos in SF a few times and I liked the fact that they drive like a granny. If they're changing programming I won't want to ride.

  • Great information, thanks! I had planted a few tops a couple years ago -- got lots of flowers, got seeds, and did indeed get some carrots from those seeds, but the failure rate was insanely high.

  • I don't get the cutting. For a stunt I think that's super unhinged. All the other stuff is temporary. Though I suppose if she'd gotten away with it she'd have a story for life and the scars to "prove" it.
