    turnning my hobby into a idel

    this is not exactly an art or handicraft....

    It's the other way around you can use oils over acrylics but not acrylics over oils. In fact for acrylic painting you want separate brushes because even the tiniest amount of oil will ruin it for acrylic painting.

    Why would my brother in Christ takes his own life?

    rotting fruit ???

    Plastic holds onto things - that's why it can't be used when you are making a meringue for pie. Quit using the plastic bowl for fruit use glass or ceramic. Once they start to turn you could cut out the bad spots and freeze them, or make some sort of jelly or syrup out of them, or even can them.
