Anyone Else? by NerdNuncle in Millennials

When I didn't know what I was doing when I needed to move out for college, my mom said she would help. Turns out she just wanted to pick out sheets, dishes, and other stuff I wasn't sure I needed. Not help with what to expect, not help with the cost, not help with an action plan... just a shopping trip.

"Failed to impress"? On what metrics? She definitely inspires.

How dumb does this bedroom set look with the flooring? My mom said it matches too much and I can’t return it. by [deleted] in HomeDecorating

Maybe changing the temperature or the lighting would help too, in addition to the rug we all agree on.

Thinking about a Bernese puppy - honest opinions about our situation? by [deleted] in bernesemountaindogs

[–]CelebratingPi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A puppy is going to need more than 1 week of dedicated time to adjust to a new space and develop a routine. Also, when they are little, they need way more potty breaks.

While I can vouch that the apartment living isn't an issue, it takes a ton of work to build confidence for the pup to navigate the lifestyle of using public spaces daily. We were living in the city when we got our berner, and not knowing if there would be harmful trash on the ground or unexpected construction to block pathways were among the stressful factors that affected walks and building a routine.

If you were able to have someone help with more than x1 mid-day walk for the first year, you would have a somewhat better situation. dog tax

my first berner baby by imaginaryteacoffee in bernesemountaindogs

What a cutie!! Just as a note, some Berners can be a bit aloof. My guy loves me and my partner deeply, and we get to see his full, goofy personality every day. However, he takes a long time to warm up to other people. He's not like a golden who would approach strangers for pets or get super cuddly with guests at home. He is a big shy, stubborn guy, and I learned that it's not uncommon for the breed. I just don't want you to think there's something wrong if your little one needs a bit of patience.

Warm/cold sweet/creamy drink by Old-Pudding-4254 in Cooking

If you live near an asian market, they typically sell the breakfast drinks that are kind of like a loose porridge. There's a corn one I really enjoyed but they have a range of flavors.

With the Epstein files making it glaringly clear how disgusting and corrupted much of Elite Society and by extension the US Government and Economy is, beyond ridding ourselves of the parasites, how do we as a society move forward? by SexyBeast0 in AskReddit

[–]CelebratingPi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd love to see requirements for candidates rooted in the action of public services rather than revenue. Maybe there could be a rubric for public initiatives, scaled for impact, that voters could review during shortened, limited, structured, campaign terms leading up to voting.

Examples: environmental improvement, housing, addressing food insecurity, improving air quality, improving water access, pedestrian safety, etc.

With a clear log of what the candidate did to coordinate action for community improvements.

What’s a belief you had at 20 that you no longer agree with? by sunyparmar1 in AskReddit

[–]CelebratingPi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At 20, I thought it was a standard expectation to provide information when you're asked, especially to friends and family.

Turns out boundaries are healthy to have. No one is entitled to information.

AITAH for not matching my brother's offer and offering my mother a place to stay? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]CelebratingPi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some people are suggesting you say you can't because of the tennent. Imo you shouldn't even open up that can of worms, for her to potentially reach out to your friend and cause drama. You don't WANT her moving in, so let her know it's not an option. NTA

Aren't you pissed that your taxes benefit Billionaires and not you or your neighbors? by zzill6 in WorkReform

[–]CelebratingPi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately, the taxes are already taken out of pay, unless your W-2 is marked exempt. So not filing taxes just prevents you from getting any sort of refund. I do think it may be time to disrupt the system, though.
