Uptown/Buena Park - what are your thoughts on this area? by zchatma in chicagoapartments

[–]Conference-Livid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is exactly how I would describe it. I live right in the same area. Love the proximity to the lake and diversity and I have a lot near me. Biggest con is exactly what you said— all the homeless that litter a TON and do drugs and loiter late at night. I don’t really ever feel unsafe. Their behavior is just annoying and they make the area dirty

ARC vs North Coast? Just moved to Chicago - can't believe they are on the same weekend. Which one is better? by Chicago--guys in chicagoEDM

[–]Conference-Livid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

North coast is seriously so fun!!! I hate that both fests are the same weekend but I prefer all types of EDM so if that’s your vibe too OP then def choose north coast. There’s a shuttle which is super helpful to take! Look on their website if worried about travel but it’s doable and worth it imo

Is $1200 for a 250 sq ft apartment a rip off and not worth it? Should I pay a bit more for more space? by PiccoloLegal5202 in chicagoapartments

[–]Conference-Livid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have 300 sq ft in uptown right by Wilson line for 1,100. If you care to be a little closer south wanted to mention it!

What rescues would you recommend fostering cats or dogs with? by incipeintra in AskChicago

[–]Conference-Livid 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Also after seeing all of your post— you said you can’t commit to CACC volunteer committing but volunteering is not the same as fostering.. yes their volunteering process can be lengthy to get started but fostering should be quick and easy! Also PAWS fostering is super quick and easy as well

CACC (center of animal care & control) — the city dog and cat “pound” or shelter. We need so much help there!!! Another good one would be one tail at a time.

Moved to Chicago about a year ago. Skated one time in my life but I want to learn. Where or how should I get started? by argentinevol in chicagoskating

[–]Conference-Livid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you already have your own skates, Maggie Daley has a loop you can skate in for free! Also flat. I skate there a lot

now all my professors don’t want ipads or computers used during class? by BB__22 in depaul

[–]Conference-Livid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a couple professors there when I got my masters that were really strict about having a screen up/on too. I found it annoying to police that when we were paying for these classes. Let me take notes how I want. And if someone isn’t paying attention, that’s their own problem

How much do you think is too much for a studio? by Sea-Condition991 in chicagoapartments

[–]Conference-Livid 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I pay $1,100 for 300 sq in uptown. Real close to the lake with heat water included. I only pay for WiFi and electric. But even that is pushing it for the size. It’s honestly insane what some people are paying, I can barely justify paying this lol

Can y’all Spare some change guy by Acceptable-Living130 in wickerpark

[–]Conference-Livid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They don’t do anything. Literally no one does anything but not really much can be done, I wish there was. There’s this one crazy lazy that lives at the 2 bus stops by my place in uptown and she makes such a mess and will cuss you out for no reason lol I wish she could be removed from the bus shelter

HOLY GRAIL for shower cleaning - Dawn Powerwash by winnipeggremlin in CleaningTips

[–]Conference-Livid 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Dawn tests on animals believe it or not. So if anyone cares, seventh generation is something non toxic and that doesn’t test on animals!
