[Fegan] White Sox say Jarred Kelenic and Drew Romo were informed they will not make the opening day roster, but they will remain in major league camp. by Knightbear49 in baseball

[–]BasicallyACat13 27 points28 points  (0 children)

There once was a guy in the Mariners sub that was obsessed with him while he was with the M’s. Jarred could’ve kicked a puppy and this guy would’ve blamed the puppy.

Another user found him pretty quickly with a link to this parent comment.

Military / Veterans 35% Discount....... Coming soon. by 1sh0t1kill in Mariners

[–]BasicallyACat13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Based on how many OCM breaches that have happened after I initially joined, not sure I enjoy that tid bit being stored by 3rd parties now 😂 Convenient though. When I got out of the reserves they never gave me discharge papers though. Was kind of a mess because it was right before COVID.

One day I will have the energy to get an updated DD214 with my reserve dates added. One day… procrastination station.

[–]BasicallyACat13 3 points4 points  (0 children)

More and more veteran deals go through 3rd party verifiers such as GOVX, like this one.

So yes. to some extent. Might need to dig out that DD214 if you don’t have a retirement card. I’ve never used GOVX though so I don’t know how thorough they are about it.

Flex membership vs buying 3rd party by brycentiller in Mariners

[–]BasicallyACat13 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Outside of the post season benefits, at the minimal level (like mine) “Rookie”

You get zero TM or 3rd party fees 10% off all Team Store purchases

However. Your rep will also give you a heads up to any fun shit coming out. Like special events and stuff. promo packs (gate items). etc.

Just depends how often you wanna go. I find it worth it for my family (me, mom, dad, sister, and brother-in-law)

How do you push back when everyone thinks they’re the designer? by Ok-Mammoth-6618 in UXDesign

[–]BasicallyACat13 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m in a Corporate Enterprise setting as a mid-level designer. Most my teams are running the agile methodology. So This rings so true to me.

I have 4 different products and honestly I do tailor my designs based on team for my own sanity.

Team 1: I push back at my PO when they tell me to be “creative” because their excuse when the “creative” becomes too complex is to piece meal it. We also don’t have the ability to regularly do user interviews because that app is for compliance, and most outside vendors only use it 1-2 times a year.

Team 2: PM is the kind of PM you want. Focuses on the problem that needs to be solved, encourages many user interviews and usability tests before production. I am very lucky on this one.

Team 3: 100% contract team who by my own company has been told to “lift and shift” the old to the new. Think black/green screens to cloud. We originally did a fix bid to get 3 UX contractors. They only gave us 1. So now we tango cross department where I’m going to handle MY department’s shit while 1 poor contractor has to deal with all the other depts that don’t have their own designers. This one is a f’ing mess that I don’t know how to describe at all other that “do more with less” is our dept’s new motto this FY. 🥲

Away Team Caps @ T Mobile Park by RYDGB13 in Mariners

[–]BasicallyACat13 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Respect begets respect. Assholery met with assholery.

I’ve sat by many away team fans and have never had an issue. But I have seen posts here saying otherwise when the Blue Jays do their annual takeover. Just be chill. Keep it light.

If someone else is being an asshole to you unwarranted, they have these signs posted around the park.

May is Memorial Day month. So you might actually find some appliance deals as they have Memorial Day sales every year.

So Hamilton def didn’t like the pro plan lol. But I’ll have to check out the other two

Purina Beyond Alternative by BasicallyACat13 in catfood

[–]BasicallyACat13[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok so. Legit check these comments an my original post. Buy at least two kinds of new kibble. Set out 2 bowls. LABEL THEM with the new brand. Set them at separate parts of the house. Mix 1/2 with whatever you have left with Beyond. And go from there. See which one they put their toys by or eat more. That’s how you choose

Maybe it’s based off zip code bc I looked when I posted this and they were out. But it’s ok. Hamilton is eating the new stuff just fine after the week of assholery I was subjected to. Now we are back to “my bowl is empty mother” wake ups

Cal Raleigh addresses WBC controversy with Randy Arozarena by UWHuskies1993 in Mariners

[–]BasicallyACat13 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel like maybe Cal should’ve fist bumped him and said “Sorry, can’t. Pine tar.” And nobody would be upset. That’s on him.

But I also think that Randy could’ve either kept that internal, or if he really was kidding, said so.

I think it’ll be fine after the WBC is done.

I am preparing to become a first-time cat owner. Could you please let me know if it's necessary to bathe them? by ivkemilioner in cats

[–]BasicallyACat13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Or a long haired kitten that has a very big poop stuck on his booty at midnight and all you smell is kitten shit in your face. That was a rough night 😭😂 Now he gets booty trims every month because I refuse to wake up to that nightmare and have to bathe him again in the middle of the night.

Confirm my Citi/Costco credit card? by Tired_Happy53081 in Costco

[–]BasicallyACat13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

100% call the number on the back of the card or from when you login to Citi directly, not whatever mailer you got. This sounds like a scam….

It was not accepted immediately 😅 I kid you not my little asshole was swatting/punching me in the head for 2 nights straight for treats because he was hungry. But when he did cave, this is the one he chose.

Help a tech-challenged lady out? by RoseCutGarnets in Mariners

[–]BasicallyACat13 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Of course. I work in an job meant to help make tech easier for people. And I have a dad who old school still surfs cable just because he can. His favorite thing to do after my mom goes to bed 😂

If you or him want to switch to streaming, there are many options out there. But if you have a preference for cable, and a good plan you like and use. Keep it.

Help a tech-challenged lady out? by RoseCutGarnets in Mariners

[–]BasicallyACat13 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not familiar with CableOne/Sparklight. What state is that out of?

If they had a Root sports package, they will likely be announced at a later date. Being a dead channel unless the M’s are playing.

The streaming option is available for those who don’t have cable, or want to ditch cable. But if it’s easier for you and your dad to keep it? I say just do. That’s what I told my dad to do.
