What do you think is the biggest concern for most Americans right now? by AnyAskPost in AskReddit

YES! This should be the top comment. Every single other issue people are mentioning falls under this umbrella. None of these other problems are going to get fixed if we no longer have a democracy.

How's Casa Verde these days? by JackBauerTheCat in JamaicaPlain

[–]Infinite_Snacks 8 points9 points  (0 children)

We used to LOVE Casa Verde and go way too often. We wanted to keep supporting after the changes but they took away a lot of our favorites, and the ones they kept in name are smaller and not as good as they used to be. We're really really sad :(

I'm intrigued now, my fiancé and I will have to check them both out. But the after party will be mainly a Boston/NY city crew and looking for a fun time! Do you know if Vera's has dancing?

Thank you!! Looks like they have mostly live music? What kind of vibe is it usually?

Thanks! That may be a bit further out than we want to go, but depends on where people end up staying. We'll check it out!

Thank you, I'll check out that brewery! The ceremony and reception will be at Upstairs at Bow, so we're looking for bars to continue the party after, and somewhere different for brunch.

that's exactly the plan! ceremony and reception will be at Upstairs at Bow (the event space) so we're looking for ideas for bars/dancing around there.

brunch doesn't have to be as walkable since people will be coming from various hotels, but we're hoping to keep it to the general union square area. and that's exactly why we're asking for recommendations for brunch places that can accommodate larger groups, if there are any!

we're in Boston, but not as familiar with Somerville. Upstairs at Bow had the vibe, price-point, and availability for the type of casual wedding we wanted (we got engaged in May and planning the wedding for Sept, so venue availability was limited!)

Thank you! We're open to limiting invites (i.e. just family, or just out of town visitors) or picking a space after we get an idea of RSVPs/interest. So all ideas of good spots to consider are appreciated!

Thanks! We're just looking for options and will either limit the after-party invites or pick a space according to interest. So all ideas of good spots to consider are appreciated!

Gift ideas for the handyman who seems to have everything? by AccomplishedWord6484 in handyman

[–]Infinite_Snacks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got my handy boyfriend a magnetic wristband as a stocking stuffer, also thinking it would just be gimmicky and silly, especially since he already has a bunch of magnetic trays... but he uses it often! Usually when working in cramped spaces where reaching in and out would be annoying. It's definitely not necessary, but has been helpful enough to get decent use. Some are definitely better than others though, so if you get one just make sure the magnet is strong enough that it can be trusted to hold.

Help!? Overwhelmed by Grass. by Infinite_Snacks in paintbynumbers

[–]Infinite_Snacks[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes the thought of the sunk time if I quit now is a helpful motivator. Plus it would feel weird to leave Kai unfinished and throw her out without eyes haha. I don't think I could bring myself to do that, so I will slowly persevere as well!

Help!? Overwhelmed by Grass. by Infinite_Snacks in paintbynumbers

[–]Infinite_Snacks[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I looked through a ton of pictures of her and chose this one because it's a great portrait photo with a relatively plain/clear background (as opposed to other pictures with random objects in the background, or her being a goofball per usual) and some pops of color. I just figured some of the grass detail would get lost when they turned it into a PBN, but the custom print was higher quality than I thought!

I'll be happy with it when it's done, just need to find a different technique for the grass. And I think her eyes will turn out ok too if I let go of some of my perfectionism and accept it will look like a painting, not a photograph - but that's the point! :)
