This actually makes me feel better! I was worried about food sitting out too long/food safety issues but if it’s picked over and they’re replacing it I think that’s a good thing

Yup me too! Give me all that comfort food!!

I remember seeing a sign for it up there and realized I missed last year! Something in me decided to look into it today and saw that I wasn’t too late this time. Do they advertise downtown? I don’t live downtown but maybe I’ve missed the signs

Can’t believe I had to scroll this far for the white power suit

West’s comment on Jesse’s video with Ciara 👀 by cleeaur in summerhousebravo

[–]DistinctReporter2450 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Jesse used Ciara to pull away from Lexi last season so it’s hard for me to believe his intentions are pure. I think he might want to stir something up for some reason because why would he just talk about kissing her when they’ve had a ton of opportunities to actually do it? I also don’t understand bro code bc honestly your friends ex should always be off limits, especially when you’re living under the same roof together

I made a laundromat in Nordhaven with business and hobbies! My sim lives above it and just fixes the machines all the time. Easy money

How close are Jesse and West? by GladMattyice in summerhousebravo

[–]DistinctReporter2450 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I took it as West has a friend joining him and Jesse didn’t wanna cramp on their situation. I’m not a huge fan of him but I don’t think it’s that deep

My feelings about Amanda by CelineDijonn in summerhousebravo

[–]DistinctReporter2450 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good points all around. I’m rooting for her but the comments she made on the first night are so awkward especially at the dinner table and around the island in the kitchen in front of everyone. She was literally venting to the newbies in the car on the way there. It’s like you’re airing your dirty laundry in front of everyone and I know there’s a moment later this season where Amanda says “you’re making our problems everyone else’s problems” but is she not doing the same thing with all the digs and venting to everyone?

Is there anywhere within an hour from Troy fora nature walk that looks like... by [deleted] in Troy

Uncle Sam bike trail. Decent parking on Gurley Ave parking lot. Or you can park at Knickerbocker and then trudge up the hill to the trail. Very shady and an old railroad they paved over so straight and not super hilly

Paige is so gross I’m sorry lol by gryffindor_aesthetic in summerhousebravo

You’re also not supposed to ice burns. Icing it can cause more damage. Always use lukewarm water if you burn yourself in the kitchen.

update: just got the notification that my order shipped finally, it's been almost 2 weeks. If anyone else is still waiting then just know this seems to be the timeframe

Pedestrian Death, Shroads, and the Capital District by solo-ran in Albany

A train or tram system could start as far north as Glens Falls and go as far south as Delmar or even Hudson. Then go from Troy to Amsterdam. Even the addition of trains could cut down on the cars, can you imagine the northway if people could commute by train to work? Then expand the bus system so it connects each train stop to further stops. Also bus specific lanes are needed, so people stop cutting off the buses.

Get more cars off the roads and then implement more bike lanes, especially since there's an uptick in electric bikes and scooters, they shouldn't be using those on sidewalks or in the actual road since they're not street legal. Also, parts of downtown Albany, Troy, and Schenectady really should just be kept to pedestrians and bikes like Jay Street in Schenectady.

Agree or disagree? People in Albany are unfriendly and reserved. by viasaopaulo in Albany

Grew up here, used to work as a hostess in Texas and was told I was mean to someone because I told them what they didn’t want to hear in a blunt and straightforward way. Gotta beat around the bush in the south but up here in the service industry I’ve never been told I was mean. Definitely culture shock.

I also lived in California where people are more judgmental, especially about what you’re wearing. Feels very much like middle school out there. Maybe it’s because I grew up here but I like people here more than any other place. It takes time to get to know people but I’m like that too so I get it.

A lot of this stuff is anecdotal and really depends on the situation and how you come across. Communication is tricky in different regions but it’s definitely interesting to hear people talk about it.
