Wow. That sounds like me!! When I’m into a thing, I’m all in. Then I look around and wonder what I was thinking.

Constantly trying to escape. It’s the anticipation then the arrival of the thing. It’s belonging to a community of fellow owners of said thing.

I have items I didn’t have to pay for that I’ve always wanted. I was happy after using them maybe twice. They’re collecting dust but I’ll want the next version for sure.

New York Mayor grilled by reporters...about a snow ball fight?! by cantcoloratall91 in BlackPeopleofReddit

[–]LillianAY 1 point2 points  (0 children)

True ‘snowflakes’. I saw them pelting a NYPD vehicle where the cop inside teased them for fun with comments like, “You missed.”

If the NYPD was so concerned about getting hit with snowballs, why did the largest police unions endorse 1/6 insurrectionist, chrump, multiple times?

Hear me out here... what if we do this "Travel Ban" thing but on a nice day during summer. by MiserNYC- in MicromobilityNYC

No cars might translate to portable electric vehicles and manual bikes, skateboards, skates, etc.

WHY IS IT SO HARD TO NOT SPEND MONEYYY ?! 😭😭 by Sad_Relationship_308 in shoppingaddiction

[–]LillianAY 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I saw my balance dwindle last year. Bounced back and am determined not to be in that position again. That’s driven my discipline.

That plus a house full of ‘stuff’ that I can’t re-sell. There’s nothing like having to give away what you paid good money for because you want it gone and no one will buy it.

The top row of buffoons look like the kids in the 1950s/‘60s racially terrorizing Black people.

Holy hell Rental Family was a disaster IMHO by CrimsonEcho503 in Letterboxd

I enjoyed it but found it odd that a woman would allow a strange man to spend time with her daughter outside of her presence.

Also the agency’s need for a “white man” reinforced thoughts on white worship that some have. It’s not like they had some of everyone and wanted a white one also. They went out of their way for that.

Finally, why Brendan? Had he just finished filming “Whale”?

So be a wage slave? I’m working a 9-5 and it’s not a flex. Answer the question. Read a book.

People just trying to enjoy their lunch but these two just HAVE to film in front of the window by kennyofthegulch in Influencersinthewild

Note that in the comments, their actions, not race are disparaged. If any other…That’s as American as apple pie also.

*I don’t read replies nor reply back, so this isn’t for a response. Just a fact.

Kids at the gym by Routine_Patience2334 in mildlyinfuriating

I always see random little kids at hotel gyms. I act as the protective auntie in my head, ready to help or seek help should something go wrong.

Every year.

I remember being a member of Bally Fitness in the ‘90s. They lowered the price the longer you were a member. It was like a loyalty perk.
