Everything has LEDs now and they drive me nuts
  • My home office is in my bedroom. I've covered what I can with electrical tape but the glow still comes through. Sometimes I just throw dirty t-shirts and socks over things

    What are some thriving communities to join?
  • When I go to one of those directories, it seems to take me to a web browser. How do I visit one of those communities and/or subscribe to it in Wefwef/Voyager?

    I feel sorry for women who don't have pockets
  • I found a pair of Wrangler pants on Amazon that has front pockets that are squares of fabric sewn on the outside and they fit my entire phone with room to spare. It's the first time I've been able to put a phone in my pants pocket and walk without worrying I was bending my phone.

    I feel sorry for women who don't have pockets
  • This. My husband is approximately the same height and weight I am; we have the same waist measurements and if I'm being honest he looks hella good in my pants.

    However, I can barely get his jeans over my hips and they're too tight in the thighs. Not too mention the awkward kangaroo pouch crotch area.

    We both wear men's goodfellow PJ bottoms from target (because POCKETS) and I wear a medium, he wears a small because he doesn't have hips.

  • Yep. I I had no appetite, severe insomnia, headaches and sweats for about 1-2 weeks when I came off of my heavy use, decade long pot habit. It felt like the flu. I'm glad I found r/leaves or I wouldn't have known those were withdrawal symptoms that would eventually go away!

    I never plan to touch the stuff again.

    Android users, What's stopping you from switching to iPhone?
  • Lack of customization, lack of options, lack of compatibility.

    With iPhones you choose from iPhone 1, 2, 3, or 4. They're all the same, and frankly they all suck. They're overpriced and the charger always breaks.

  • Sorry for the Facebook link, I hope you can view the video.

    I noticed the horses in this video all seem to be "prancing" a little bit, like the riders are struggling to stay in control of them. Dozens of horses in this parade, acting similarly.

    Every horse I've seen in a parade looks calm, mellow, or bored. So, are these horses excited and happy to be there? Or are the riders forcing/encouraging this behavior? Are the horses in distress?

    For context, this is part of a festival in Tomato, Portugal.

    Time off and a healthy lifestyle are driving some young Americans to Europe: 'You are a person first and a worker 2nd'
  • Portugal's population is getting smaller each year as natives relocate to other parts of Europe where they can earn a living wage. It's got it's own problems, one of them being real estate is too expensive for people born in the country (thanks in part to wealthy immigrants). Regardless, their policies welcome immigration, unlike most countries.

    Conservatives go to red states and liberals go to blue as the country grows more polarized
  • Maybe you missed the part about trying to find a lower cost of living area? Unless you go to the highest crime, poorest areas of those states, real estate is insane. We did consider Pueblo, CO, but it's trumpville and actually more expensive than most parts of CT.

    I logged in to Reddit today
  • This makes me sad. Information is being erased that will keep people who could've been helped by it from ever finding it.

    The people who it will hurt the most have nothing to do with Reddit.

    Conservatives go to red states and liberals go to blue as the country grows more polarized
  • But why are all the blue states cold?

    My husband and I thought about Arizona, or Virginia to get away from one of the highest CoL areas in the country.. but eventually decided to focus on Connecticut instead, because we don't want to be in a red state. With the exception of CA, none of the liberal states are sunny and all of them are expensive!

    Reddit users lost?
  • That's a good question about users with the same name. I haven't wanted to try other instances because I thought I'd need to think up multiple new usernames... But maybe I don't? Interesting.

    New Zealand bans plastic bags for fresh produce in supermarkets
  • The bags I get from Fred Meyer are so awkwardly shaped and crinkly I haven't been able to find another use for them. I used to reuse the old plastic bags all the time. To scoop cat litter into, small garbage can liners.. but these are wide and shallow, you can't even tie them closed. They're so ridiculous they barely hold groceries.

  • It's such a subtle shift they probably don't even realize it happened. But suddenly people stop reacting with joy and love when they see you and it takes a while to adjust to that
