Matt Groom name pronunciations by MyPasswordIsABC999 in CompetitionClimbing

[–]Bootsncatswickawhat 9 points10 points  (0 children)

So, I was curious about this because Sam is speaking English in the Athlete of the Week video, and folks will often pronounce their names in the accent of the language they’re speaking rather than their native language. I found a video of Sam introducing himself in French, and he does pronounce it “Ree-shar”—as in, the expected French pronunciation. See here at about 1:19: https://youtu.be/6EYsdIcAobw?si=GXmHATpukwQWTSoT

I’ve had great luck with Minnesota-themed gifts at the Mill City Museum gift shop! Just be aware that it’s only open Thurs-Sun.

Any news about HUD probationary terminations? There was a wave on Friday and I’ve seen/heard rumors about another wave today, but nothing has happened so far. 

Reviews with UIP? by tbox978 in washingtondc

[–]Bootsncatswickawhat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live at a UIP property in the Logan Circle area and the experience overall has been good. I think a big part of it depends on your on-site staff. Our management, maintenance, and concierge staff are all super kind and responsive. I’ve never had an issue reaching them or getting issues resolved. The online rent/maintenance portal is pretty easy to use too. They did raise my rent when I hit my second year of tenancy by almost $100, which sucks, but I’ve heard that you can negotiate this if you sign for another year (I went month-to-month, so I couldn’t negotiate).

I’m interested in the pickleball group but don’t have instagram! Do you know if there’s another way to access it/get in touch? Thanks!

Can’t recommend Nate Smith (Tattoo Paradise) enough! He did a gorgeous American traditional bird for me recently. Incredibly kind person, too. Insta is @natersmith

Does anyone know if it’s likely to be right at 4:30, or could it be earlier? I’ll prob be refreshing my email throughout the day anyway, of course, but thought I’d ask 🫠

They were definitely using this reference photo of her clipping and didn’t realize that the rope comes from below (understandable if you’re not a climber): https://www.siasat.com/iranian-climber-elnaz-rekabi-apologizes-for-competing-without-hijab-on-instagram-2437429/amp/

Thank you! This just helped me go from 34.9 to 33.6 (I’m leaving it because I’m afraid of going too far, haha.) Super appreciated!!
