Honestly, it sucks, but nowadays, $400 isn’t overly high for condo HOAs. At least not in my region of the state. For stand alone, detached homes, it’s insane. But fees are crazy high nowadays for everyone. That price for a condo HOA is not outrageous unfortunately.
I live in a hot, humid environment. Keeping bread in the fridge helps it to stay good for multiple weeks. If I leave it out, it molds way quicker. I also sometimes will store bread in the freezer to keep it fresh even longer if I know I’m just going to make toast out of it.
It is incredibly odd…isn’t it? So many words saying very little.
To OP, I think it would help others to give you advice if you say exactly what sort of plans you had that didn’t work out. Plans not working out come in all shapes and sizes, and advice for one thing doesn’t necessarily apply to another.
If it’s a relationship you seem to desire, then asking for more relationship focused advice may be more fruitful than vaguebooking and not getting much in the way of useful responses.
Welcome to Lemmy! I think the downvoted are more because there are conversation focused communities as opposed to this one, but you’ll find your footing!
I used an android app called “Just Run”. It’s a free couch to 5K app with no ads. Downside is it’s very simple and it only trains you on the length of your runs, not your distance. So I paired it with a cheap smartwatch to figure out how far I was going. I didn’t make it to 5k at the end of the app (altho I was able to run for 30 mins straight like the app trains you), but I continued to run afterwards now only using my smartwatch.
Initially I was going to run more frequently, but through the advice on the app, I found that it’s best to have at least one rest day in between runs. So I run every one to two days ideally unless I have something going on. It feels less pressuring and draining to do that way too.
Initially, my feet and knees (and even a bit of my chest from using my breathing muscles more lol) hurt a lot, but I just went slow and kept at it and eventually my body got used to running and now everything is fine. I do have mild chronic pain in my left foot, but I think it’s unrelated because it started happening before I picked up running.
Maybe a bit tmi, but I always be sure to take a dump in the morning before I go out for a run lol!!
Good luck! Remember, you don’t have to be Usain Bolt!
Similar experience but with an absolutely massive cockroach (“Palmetto bug” for those wondering the scale). I freaked the fuck out lol. I thought my arm was just itchy but it didn’t go away and I looked down and started flailing everywhere.
Sometimes I have an itchy feeling and get paranoid that there is a bug on me. And there almost never is so usually I ignore it. But occasionally there actually is a bug on me so I’m not just imagining!
This is hardly related to anything at all, but be careful about using your university email as a login for too many things. At least at my university, we only have access to the email for the duration we were in school (and a bit of a grace period afterwards). So afterwards it can be a real pain to switch over a bunch of accounts. And if you forget to switch them over in time you can lose access to them.
That’s not even a cake
Yeah I’m not a doctor but I work in healthcare. Would be a massive HIPAA violation (patient privacy laws).
For context, I eat meat.
But sometimes I do wonder if one day society will look back at the practice of eating animals and see it as barbaric, just as we do with slavery.
I can’t stop ruining everything when I do. Everything I say is wrong in some way or another or bothering someone. I need to exist entirely within myself if that makes sense.
I work with my hands all day! I dictate what I’m doing as I’m doing it. I work in a lab where I’m manipulating and cutting things covered in blood and poo. Dictating is far quicker and cleaned than typing it all out and it means I don’t have to stop manipulating or cutting the specimen to record what I’m doing. Imagine how much quicker it is to read 10 pages out loud than it would be to type the same 10 pages. The voice dictation software works far better than the regular dictation software on your phone because it’s tailored to the type of job I have.
What kind of job you work? I hear people talk about having downtime to do nothing all the time on Reddit, but it seems like it’s industry dependent. Ex: in healthcare there often isn’t much in the way of downtime, but many office workers (obviously position dependent…can’t think of specifics now) seem to say they do nothing all day
Really? I hear people say stuff like this all the time, but I have not experienced it at all. Every time I go to a brick and mortar store, I find that the price is still way cheaper when I look up the product on Amazon. Plus many other online stores still have ridiculously long shipping times whereas with Amazon it will sometimes even arrive in less than 24 hours.
I also have always had great experiences with Amazon support for faulty items or in the ease of returning my items.
I bought an item from a different online retailer recently. Took forever, they sent me the wrong item, and they refused to refund my money until it took snail mail to ship it back to them and for it to be restocked in their warehouse (not even an expensive item…$40). I was absolutely pissed about how difficult they made the situation over their own mistake when Amazon has always made it so easy for me.
Another company I purchased from recently required a signature for an item and customer service flat out refused to allow me to hold it for pickup like I normally do for items like that (I didn’t realize signed delivery at home address only was a thing…never had a product like that before). They made it a headache and a half to actually get my item because I work during the day and wouldn’t allow me to have it held to be signed for at a delivery center. If I order something like that from Amazon, they allow delivery to a secure locker so I don’t have to be home during the day to pick up my purchase like I’m some 1950s housewife.
There are other retailers still that are cheaper than Amazon, but you end up waiting a month or more for your items.
I get that Amazon is a morally shitty company, but I just have not found another company with anywhere remotely near the price point, shipping experience, and customer service as them. If someone is able to step up to the plate and do that, I’ll certainly switch to someone more moral.
I will say that I do not use Amazon for used products because you have absolutely zero idea of the condition for them. eBay has always been a far superior experience for that specific type of item because you can actually see what you’re buying.
It’s not going to physically harm you, but if you have IBS, it might cause some discomfort/issues. Caffeine tends to make you need to shit…which can be a pro or con depending on the scenario. You could always try it and see how you feel. If you don’t like how your body reacts to it, there’s not going to be any damage done and you don’t have to do it again.
I want to put this on my car
Yeesh, good luck, man.
For some people, it’s not really an solvable issue and no amount of talking about it will make them like you. Some people are just assholes for various reasons, and it’s best to just minimally interact with them as opposed to trying to understand them. Courage doesn’t necessarily play a factor. Idk, just my 2 cents.
Obviously not the case for everyone, but I’ve been there before in the trying to reach an understanding route, and it doesn’t necessarily work. Some people are just a bit unhinged and it’s best to minimally interact.
I’m stupid. Can you explain the issue in the thing you circled?
