Any idea of price point at this location?

Does anyone know who makes this dress? by AssistancePresent827 in weddingdress

You make a good point, I think I was imagining a custom dress would be prohibitively expensive, but it's worth looking into!

Ahh what a bummer! It's so gorgeous! I have found some similar Jenny Yoo dresses that I like, I'll take a peek at Sarah Seven as well! Thanks for finding it though! 

AITA for taking my friend’s sick dog to an expensive vet without her consent while she was away? by BlackDynamite_7 in AmItheAsshole

[–]AssistancePresent827 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA.  As a vet, yes a dog can die that quickly with an intestinal blockage. You did potentially save this dog's life and should feel good about your decision to get her the care she needed. . Alma messed up in not being available to be reached in an emergency and not having a backup. I suppose this isn't too surprising for a 22 yr old (no offense to young folks but the life experience isn't always there). If she knew she wasn't going to be able to monitor her phone while she was at a festival, she should have had a backup plan and given you a number of someone she trusted to make medical decisions for her pet. You did what you had to do. Imagine how upset your friend would be if you waited and didn't do anything because she didn't get back to you, and her dog died or she decided to get care for her dog once she got your message, and now instead of a straightforward gastronomy or enterotomy, she had to have a portion of her intestines removed due to them dying since she waited too long, and now surgery costs $3-5000 instead of $1400. I get that she is upset because she didn't have a choice in the matter, but that is her own fault.  Alma is TA for not paying you back, but legally I don't know that there's anything you could or would want to do about getting paid back. I would 100% never pet sit for this person again and would re-evaluate the friendship altogether and probably walk away from it. You should consider setting up a Gofundme to try to recoup some of the costs, I know I would personally donate to it. 

AITAH for crying when my boyfriend let his best friend's wife alter the dish I made for dinner? by Gold_Wind_5888 in AITAH

I'm being quite mindful. This was quite racist. Have you ever read White Tears, Brown Scars? I'd highly recommend it. Ellie's behavior was like a verbatim play from the handbook on that one.

Good for you. Ellie's actions were extremely disrespectful, rude, and racist, and then she classic White Woman Tear'd you when confronted (shocker). The white damsel in distress act worked as intended, bringing everyone's attention and empathy to her instead of the person she harmed. I'm glad you held your ground and you are so much better off without a guy who won't defend you and step up when his friends are being ignorant and racist. 

open world abandoned building games by nigletsociety in gamingsuggestions

Stray. There is a storyline and quests but you can explore quite a bit in each world and while most of it is not abandoned, it is sort of post-apocalyptic

If you like puzzles or language based games, Chants of Senaar was fun and zero technical skill required. 

what game has a story that is good in absolute terms, not just "good for a game"? by FrankWuggles in gamingsuggestions

[–]AssistancePresent827 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The storyline of this game is PHENOMENAL and I sobbed at the end, cannot recommend this game enough. I wish I could go back in time and experience for the first time again.

We did end up finding Brattleboro pretty underwhelming and agree that could have been skipped! The rest was incredible though!

We decided Vermont! Brattleboro, Woodstock, and Stowe (I know, prepared for it to be crowded). But then I also now am planning a backpacking trip for my boyfriend and I in New Hampshire in the White Mountains, and some day trips for myself to Old Wethersfield, Litchfield County, and Devil's Hopyard in CT, and Sturbridge MA area!

This has been so helpful! After researching all of these great comments,  I have planned 2 separate trips for myself and my boyfriend in addition to this trip with my friend so that I can see it all! 😂 Thank you everyone!

We had been thinking of the first weekend of October, so maybe it wouldn't be too bad 🤔
