I like that killing your lawn involves imbuing life back into it. I suppose lawns count as undead.

(Seriously though, nice work! Making me wish violets were native here… but I can’t complain because the groundcover in my garden is being overtaken with beautiful white clover)

Ear plugs =/= can’t hear. Loops specifically are designed to allow you to hear but not have hearing damage.

My baby is colicky AF and will scream while we’re in the process of making her a bottle. Or while we’re burping her. Or when we have to pull the bottle away to wipe spit up. Or while we’re in the process of soothing her but not soothed yet.

I’m pretty patient (with children, not judgy parents though) but I’m not perfect. I can parent better and be more present while not massively overwhelmed by a noise designed by evolution to be horrible and intolerable.
