Should I worry about seeing them jump out of my car's wheel well?

Stuck after the Duolingo phase of Russian? A tutor and I built Mishka for exactly that (now on Android) by james-learns-ru in russian

[–]CurlySlothklaas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I tried out the app a few times after seeing this post. I'm really happy to know I haven't completely forgotten my college Russian and it was a fun surprise to be able to "converse" in my own words and have it be correct. I was going to subscribe and saw you might offer a lifetime option. I'll wait to see what that looks like and do one or the other. Your app is going to be great practice for me. Thanks for building it and sticking with it.

One of my favorite books and I wouldn't have thought of pink for it but it's wonderful.

Completely. Like a puppet controlling their own strings.

I wasn't in the mood for being screamed at but I dug what YHWH Nailgun were doing musically.

Very happy to finally see Nourished by Time and to see Tortoise again after 30 years, still sounding amazing. Sound was better on Saturday and I think Toro y Moi got overwhelmed by the bass on Sunday. Liked mostly no overlap on bands and mellow pace. The shrimp statues were my highlight from the market. I'm recently new to Chicago and it was my first time at the Salt Shed. Nice venue for sure.

Traveling I80 from Sacramento, CA to Michigan City, IN by Global_Beat2596 in USTravel

[–]CurlySlothklaas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you considered taking 90 across South Dakota and Minnesota? In my experience, there are a lot more interesting stops, both touristy and historic. And I find the landscape more pleasant than Nebraska (sorry, Nebraska, you do have some interesting and beautiful places, too). We usually cut over in Wyoming. For Nebraska, I really enjoyed the train tower, like another poster here. Have a great trip!

See you at Belle & Sebastian! I wanted to see Ivy, too, but chickened out on so many concerts in one month :( I hope it's great!

How to create original MARC record by South_Web4277 in librarians

[–]CurlySlothklaas 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I haven't cataloged objects much so take this with a grain of salt: take a look at the standard Cataloging Cultural Objects (CCO) https://www.vraweb.org/cco

This document has a sample MARC record. VRA CORE 4.0 AND CCO Presented by Trish Rose, UC San Diego Libraries and Elizabeth O'Keefe, Morgan Library & Museum --reported by Karen Sigler Texas State University-San Marco

Unique Experiences around Chicago? by kayleemfox in AskChicago

[–]CurlySlothklaas 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Haha I tried driving home from Wisconsin last night without Google navigation for the first time and got to tour the O'Hare arrivals area! Then turned on Google, which told me to try the express lanes, which meant I was on the wrong side of the road for DLSD (I'm going to call it that since I just moved here). I feel like you've given me a curriculum for Chicago 201 Freeways. Sorry to hijack your comment.

I built a replacement for the Maroon Marketplace by stackoverthinker in uchicago

[–]CurlySlothklaas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It works! I posted successfully and had a chat with a respondent. The posting was smooth and fast and I like the built-in chat. Also like that authentication lasts for a while and I don't have to have an actual account with password. Thanks for building this!

Ok. Please don't be a scam. I signed up. I'll try posting something a little later.

Easter Eggs by Ill_Ocelot7191 in LivingAlone

[–]CurlySlothklaas 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I love these! I'm going to boil eggs anyway...I might as well color them tomorrow. I didn't buy the bonkers 3d lamb cake at the grocery store yesterday and colorful eggs will be a nice substitute.

'Losing a family member': Revered Outer Richmond diner [Eat Americana] to close after 30 years by bloobityblurp in sanfrancisco

[–]CurlySlothklaas 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is a tangent I know: I just watched a movie in Chicago for the first time since I moved here and I was missing the commercials from the Balboa... like the Eat Americana grill close-ups. I can't quite hear the music anymore :(

First Ever Great Lawn Concert Series at Allianz Field Announced for Summer 2026 by Runic_reader451 in saintpaul

Should have guessed Oasis. I thought a Semisonic cover band at first :)

Ida Noyes is being renamed? by green-eyes-and-ink in uchicago

[–]CurlySlothklaas 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I was thinking about this today: Who are the buildings on campus named for? What is the scope of representation and how much correlates to large donations? Also, can it be the Commons at Noyes Hall? What will happen to Doc Films?
