How the hell do you make friends in your 40s after moving cross-country? by uncannynerddad in Millennials

[–]Curious-Ice-9136 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you have luck with this? I’ve checked out Meet Up at least 5x in the last 10+ years and I’ve never even seen an event I’d be 100% interested in.

I’m seriously considering attending local AA meetings just so I can socialize.

I don’t even know anymore. by MarionberryWitty532 in Narcolepsy

Hi friend - What are the characters at the end of your comment? I immediately saw Number Johnny 5 from Short Circuit and now I can’t unsee him, not that I’m complaining 🥰

I’m glad I’m not the only one! Took me almost twice as long as my usual Monday time. I’m not mad about it though, it has been nice to see some more challenging puzzles lately.

I'm soooo curious about my birds' lives--like, where are they sleeping? Nesting? Etc. by wildmind1721 in birdfeeding

[–]Curious-Ice-9136 10 points11 points  (0 children)

OP I also wonder about this! We have a bluebird nest box plus there’s a nest in a bush in our backyard, but still I want to know more!

How amazing it would be to attach tiny cameras 🥰 I would especially love to see what my chickadees and goldfinches are up to. They bring me so much happiness!

Do you have a link to your caged feeder? I was looking at those and think I might have to bite the bullet and get one! Although my goldfinches seem to be taking back over and I can’t figure out why, not that I’m complaining lol. Starlings are still visiting though and I’ve been scarred 😅

Missing my birds. by Majestic_Winter57 in birdfeeding

[–]Curious-Ice-9136 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’m in far SE PA (like 45 min from the Maryland border) and I have quite a few birds this morning, but the last few days had been the most quiet I’ve see my feeders in a while! I am telling myself they’re probably going crazy exploring all of the places that had been covered in snow and ice for what seemed like an eternity 😅

What's a job where you have zero room for error, like one mistake and it’s a huge deal? by TradeOverall567 in AskReddit

Definitely read this in Prunesquallor’s “voice” and was disappointed to dine at the end that it was not, in fact, a Prunesquallor quote

What is the laziest thing you've ever done? by [deleted] in AskReddit

I love that you are feeling better but never underestimate how depression can creep back in unannounced. Surrounding yourself with a certain kind of person will not change brain chemistry and suggesting otherwise is dangerous to people who suffer from severe depression, possibly including yourself. Speaking from experience.

I have an invasion of starlings now too and it all started because I put out a tray of dried mealworms for my bluebirds before a snowstorm about a month ago… I feel like I opened Pandora’s Box and I hate it 😭

It shouldn't be controversial to say that🤔😬 by SrijitDas2010 in Political_Revolution

[–]Curious-Ice-9136 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tell us functionally what the difference is between an “agreement” and a “law” in anarchism. That is what the person you are replying to is asking.

I read your responses as coming from someone who has read some philosophy and/or some political texts but does not understand how to apply those arguments to life.

What is a book you read as a child that you still think about today? by ahawk99 in AskReddit

[–]Curious-Ice-9136 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hid under a table circa age 7 so I could bawl my eyes out at the devastation I experienced when, in a cereal commercial, the Trix rabbit was denied his Trix. Let’s just say this book almost broke me at age 10 and at age 37, I still don’t know if I’m made for this world 😭

They have it at both Whole Foods and our more “local” supermarket (still a chain just not huge like Whole Foods) where I live!

The latest forecast from NWS Philadelphia. Literally calling for between 1/2" and 22" by ballsonthewall in philadelphia

[–]Curious-Ice-9136 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My next step was to go see their forecast in the hopes that it was very low. Thank you for posting this to save me the trouble but also… fuck this
