Ah right thank you both for clarifying. I genuinely didn't get it.

Sometimes listening to the song gives me some relief from it, but not all the time.

Yep. I've learned that this happening is a good indicator that I'm not doing well mentally and there's a thing I'm avoiding confronting.

Then I have to play brain detective until I figure out what it is.

Snippets of songs. They go round and around in my head.

I know the reference, I just don't understand what the comment is meant to imply.

I don't understand

I had all my plans for today upturned by an issue at work. It's not really anyone's fault, but I feel very pouty about it.

Oh yeah, undoubtedly it's not the same. But getting practiced at the essential activities means that it's not so overwhelming when you end up by yourself.

I mean, independence is just doing things for yourself. Even if you're living with parents, you can start with these things:

  • cooking your own meals
  • buying your own food
  • washing up the items you've used for cooking and eating
  • washing your own clothes
  • keeping your room clean

Bonus if you start doing some of these for your parents, too. I'm sure they'll appreciate it!

This is my favourite poem by Dutch poet Hans Andreus. Here's the English translation:

For a day of tomorrow

If I die tomorrow,

Tell the trees

How much I loved you.

Tell the wind,

That climbs the towers

Or falls from the branches,

How much I loved you.

Tell it to a child

That is young enough to understand it.

Tell it to an animal,

Perhaps only by just looking at it.

Tell it to the stone houses,

Tell it to the city

How much I loved you.

But don't tell any person,

They wouldn't believe you.

They wouldn't want to believe that

Just a man

Just a woman

That a person loved another person so much

Like I loved you.

I'm new to making sourdough, and I'm relatively new to baking bread in general, so please forgive me if this is a very basic question.

I've made a starter using nothing but dark rye flour. I'm prepping my first rye loaf right now following this pure rye loaf recipe, but I still have a lot of the rye starter left over that I'm storing in the fridge. Can I use this starter to make other kinds of bread, like whole wheat or white? If so, what kind of adaptations (if any) should I make when preparing these different loaves?

 

I think this counts as uplifting news!
