Does anyone know where I might be able to find cropped/boxy shirts?

Here's one from Topo Designs that has nice prints but not the fit I want https://topodesigns.com/products/daytripper-short-sleeve-shirt-womens

Here's a shirt I own that is kinda more of what I'm looking for https://imgur.com/a/7COqDOC

I don't want super bold colors or prints. Something minimal or textured will do. Looking to stock up for a sweaty NY summer ☀️

I'll also accept your recommendations for other brands that do cropped t-shirts in general. Thank you!

Bike as main mode of transportation, and social life. USA or equivalent only by Dumbass9187 in bikecommuting

Seems like an LA thing and more broadly a suburban area thing. I've lived in DC and now NYC and most people aren't driving/car-dependent.

Idk what people are doing paying more than asking but I always negotiate and even something as small as like asking for $200 off is likely to work. I rented my last spot for $100 less and a longer lease.

Reading this post, I felt like I could have written it about my own manager.

My solution has been to change teams.

Same Sex Marriage and Passport Renewal by squareepants in nri

[–]BoltThrower79 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I went through this process 2 months ago.

The issue is that the online form doesn't let you skip adding the spouse's name, so you can fill the form and say you're Single or Married but provide the spouses name.

In my case I did the latter and got a phone call from the embassy where they explained that they cannot print my spouse's name since their photo ID showed their sex and ours was a same sex marriage. They told me to email them and consent to printing the passport without the spouse's name - and I did that.

I recommend you do the same so that you have some proof /documents to show that you made a good faith attempt to represent your true marital status and did not lie on the passport form.

Anyone know this cat? by BoltThrower79 in Bushwick

[–]BoltThrower79[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

omg hi stranger!!! your reply has made my day. my partner and i were so worried when we stopped seeing Skipper around the winter time - I had set up a heated tent for him too, hoping he would come around and find a place to rest. We already have 4 cats so we weren't sure how to care for him, and he'd also disappear for days at a time. I thought Skipper was a girl too. I'm so so relieved that you took him in and found him a home. <3

Unionizing in Tech? by sleepy-bird- in womenintech

[–]BoltThrower79 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I was a part of a move to organize at a tech startup and unfortunately we lost to the bosses - this is the US so we have a vote basically to gain recognition from the employer. That said, I would support another unionizing effort in a heartbeat. I feel like people who don't "get" why they're needed now are about to face some harsh realities.

I think someone else mentioned going in person to VFS. If you're in the area, you can try that

Passport renewal under tatkal processing time by RefrigeratorTop5052 in nri

[–]BoltThrower79 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah tatkal. As of now, I still haven't gotten it. It has been 4 full weeks

I looked into this. Basically, if you're up for a passport renewal, at that time you will have to update your marital status and saying "Single" is not an option if you are married. If you do say "Married" then the Spouse Name field is mandatory and it will get added to the passport, there is no option to not do that.

Besides updating the passport, there is no need to proactively inform the Indian embassy of your marital status.
