whole apartment feels damp?

Hi! I was gone from my apartment this summer while all of my roommates moved out, and came back today. I’ve found that the carpet and plush surfaces have felt slightly damp, and it definitely feels a bit humid in my apartment. I live in an area of the US where summers are as humid as they are hot but I haven’t dealt with anything like this. I have not noticed any mold (except for my toilet lid because I accidentally left it down for 3 months, whoops). Is there a potential reason for this? How urgently does this need to be fixed? Should I contact maintenance?

brown recluse problem :(

yesterday and today ive seen a brown recluse out and about in my house. the house is OLD, and by some very creature-rich woods, and has a lot of bugs milling about in all forms (ive seen silverfish, another bug i cant quite identify, and there is definitely an ant problem). this is the first one that concerned me because, obviously, and also that i have no idea how to deal with these guys.

here are my questions:

  1. how do i get rid of them?
  2. is the only way to rid them to kill the bugs theyre eating?
  3. … how bad are their bites, really? ive seen some places that the necrosis-type bites are very rare and that most of them heal up like normal spider bites.

thanks!

[TOMT] [SONG] horrible song that plays at my job

theres a song that plays at my work that makes me want to claw my hair out and another factor of this rage is that i cant find what its called anywhere. i know how the entire chorus goes but googling it brings me nowhere. the singer is female and her voice wavers slightly. its slightly upbeat with guitars, not electronic. the chorus is:

ive been out fighting way too long (too long) ill be running back to you
your boundless grace is more than enough (more than enough) ill be running back to you

help!

how do saggy breasts fit into all of this? need help finding something for me

i am new to this kind of bra measuring and need some help! i was bra shopping earlier and tried out the bra calculator (though take this with a bit of a grain of salt, i was slightly rushing as i dont like fitting rooms) and got the following:

LU: 47
SU: 45.5 (46? do we round up?)
TU: 42
SB: 55
Leaning: 57
Lying: 55

and ended up at a 44K/L US or 44H/HH UK, and then i instantly ran into problems. i was at torrid and obviously they didn’t have anything close to what i seemed to need. i tried a 44DDD (or F? i cant fully recall) for the hell of it in a wired, unlined style, and the band fit very well but the cups were a little small but bearably so. had some spillage, so i decided to try another bra in the same band but one cup size up in a molded cup style and for some reason it barely went on at all, i dont know why. i got home and saw that there are a lot of exceptions to the bra calculator for my type of breasts (band size may be overestimated because of body fat around ribcage and larger band sizes, and cup size may be overestimated because of soft tissue and being very widely set). i have a “relaxed” breast type (nipples essentially point straight down, can fit my fingers all under my breast, and i generally prefer balconette styles because i deal with some significant gaping in other cups). i am currently wearing a horrible walmart bra in a 44dd. i can lift the straps several inches off my body and can pull the band like 3 or 4 inches away, and when placed properly in the cups i deal with a bit of spilling.

this is ridiculous long winded, but tldr: are there any tips to actually figuring out my cup size based on all of this? i really don’t know if i trust what the bra calculator gave me considering i am only barely not fitting a ddd/f. thanks in advance!

[TOMT] [BOOK] Later age kid book about a group of kids participating in a spelling bee?

I read this book in 6th grade with my class about a group of (I think?) 4 students preparing for and participating in a spelling bee. im 99% sure it’s a spelling bee because i’m pretty sure we read it leading up to our school’s spelling bee, but i could be wrong and maybe it’s just any other school competition. i remember one of the characters was indian and talked about living in england before the town the book was set in and he talked about having to wear school uniforms and had a british accent. i dont think he was the main character but he could have been. help!
