For general public interactions: Find a place that prints business cards and order some with something along the lines of "I stop being able to speak when overstimulated. Please give me some time. Sorry for the inconvenience." printed on them. Being able to pull one from a pocket instead of struggling to explain while unable to speak should make it less stressful.

I wish all episodes were out all at once - I'd binge the hell out of it.

At least 100k.

I have an email account I've been using exclusively for signing up to various services for almost 30 years now. About 50 messages per day make it to the inbox, about 800 per day are added to the spam folder, god only knows how many get sent to the void. None of them get read ever, the storage limit is 25GB... so I'm guessing significantly north of 100,000 unread emails.

The email account that I use for actual communication and that I give out only to real people and even that sparingly has no unread messages and one response draft. It's easy to keep up when you get about 5 emails per month of which maybe 3 require a response.

It's always fascinating to watch US gun regulation attempts and reactions to them from a perspective of someone living in a country where you straight up can't buy guns unless you are a hunter or a member of a target shooting sports club and even then it takes over a year to get permits.

I'm going to echo others warning you to not allow it to spread. It's extremely difficult to get rid off.

Any time temperature drops to 50F/10C or less peppers can pause all growth for up to a week. You'll see the difference once it's a little warmer.

It will also damage plastic on some Fitbit screens

If you use permetrin on your gear/clothes never let cats sleep on them - while they are fine with low doses higher ones are much more dangerous to them than to us.

Yeah, aphids and tomato blight are the only two things in my garden that make me use any chemicals.

Every year in late May I have to spray beats and dill once with an insecticide to get rid of aphids or I will have no crop. Every year in late August I have to spray tomatoes against blight or I will have no plants left by mid September.

Alternative: buy a non-woven crop cover. I've bought a stupidly massive one - 12m x 50m (39 x 164 feet) - for 95 Euro (~100 USD) shipped. That's enough to cover almost 1/6 of an acre. Even a really thin one (30g/m^2) makes a big difference for small dips below freezing.

50 F

The same is true and to an ever greater extent for peppers. If temperature drops below 10C / 50F you can expect zero plant growth for up to a week. This effectively limits plant growth season to 10-12 weeks in 6B - it will still flower and fruit after that, but the plant will hardly grow.

1 gal is nowhere near enough - it will be a problem as the plant grows and grow it will since it's indeterminate. I use 40L (10.5 gal) pots for tomato plants.
