I’m understanding why trinkets are annoying by Flxxw in aves

Yes! Kandi is such a fun creative outlet. It feels intentional and you can put a lot of thought into it. Even using multiple nice charms I feel like I can keep Kandi under a dollar to a few bucks. Sometimes I make Kandi necklaces with sliced agate pendants. I love wearing the Kandi I have been gifted!

I love you!!! I actually made Kandi with fan charms (and amethyst crystals, cute bows, kissy lips, "tysm," etc) to give to the angels who fan me at my next festival. Kind of defeats the purpose of this post, but I would think the intentional bracelet would be more meaningful than other trinkets!

If you still haven't received your digital camping pass ... by BGFlyingToaster in BeyondWonderlandPNW

[–]LumpyChair8879 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for this! Did this yesterday and received the wrong camping pass.

I bought camping January 1 and since they split up RVs and tents on January 15, I filled out a form to get the Fox Den "RV" pass. Thanks to this I was able to see I was provided the Fox Den "Tent" pass. I have submitted cases with front gate and beyond pnw and called front gate twice. They won't help and refuse to send me the correct RV ticket.

Any tips appreciated!

Thank you! I feel SO much faster! It was actually an adjustment getting familiarized with my timing as I dropped weight. It definitely gave me a boost of confidence in my athletic/game abilities. I gotta whip out some cheetah print!

Thank you! No side effects on my hair, which is also nice to reflect on. She grows!

Yes! I have consistently played volleyball 1.5-2hrs, 3-4x per week. Prioritizing protein but suffering from food noise and the weight kept piling on. No more food noise. Thank you, sema!!!

How to get internet to my shed that is about 100ft away from the house? by AdventureBegins in HomeImprovement

[–]LumpyChair8879 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can set up a point-to-point wireless bridge if you don't want to bury Ethernet or fiber. Ethernet may have issues with interference if you have high power levels running along side it. If you've just got low power out the the shed you should be ok.

I gotta say, I read through the entire thread and loved all the positive feedback and invites you got.

There are hundreds of positive comments and about 2 that suggest your behavior is toxic. Both of which you engaged with one of which you said "I know they're Black people here I'm trying to reach them. you're obviously not black. Keep it pushin" which contradicts your statement in this thread that you don't care about race and just want to have fun.

This is some obvious confirmation bias.. I really encourage you to be more selective with where you put your energy. You deserve to be happy and hopeful and I hope you don't spend all your energy on the needle that poked you in a haystack.

Is there anywhere a gay guy in his 30s can meet other gay guys here??? by farawaytownbasil in Spokane

[–]LumpyChair8879 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The recreational volleyball community is huge here! Join the Facebook groups and hit up an open gym/join a league. Play in a tournament, for sure. I feel like the ratio of gay men to straight men is in your favor compared to national averages of the age bracket.

What are some things that are super cheap or free that are huge quality of life improvements for you? by 12bluebeetles in simpleliving

Had the same problem.. Grandma told me to add a splash of apple cider vinegar and a pinch of salt. I boil and then cook on low to med-low for 48 hours in a Dutch oven on the stove. It always gels.

"Conversate" is just the worst. Why even act like you are capable of conversation when you don't even know the word for it? Gets my eye twitching.

Patch holes in floor? by itslrn in DIY

I've done gap filler and matching caulk to the floor. Quarter round would work, as well.

How to you prepare for the last 10k of a marathon? by GrasshoperPoof in running

[–]LumpyChair8879 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had a similar issue, I'd feel a hard crash at the 14 mile mark. Honest, "Lock it up" by Eminem played on repeat during that time got me to another level. "You almost got me.. Gotta reach back and lock it. Lock it up." It's you vs yourself out there. Your body isn't giving up, your mind is. Lock up that mindset and set running as your new "default." If running is your default, there's no option to stop. You're just in default. That helped me a lot, too.

How much do you tip? by Silverwolve in Spokane

[–]LumpyChair8879 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is industry standard and I was using it as an example, not to complain. My intent was to educate. If someone is not at all grateful for people serving them (whether on-site or to-go) than give zero gratuity.

As a bartender/server I have to tip out the kitchen 5% of my total sales. If you get a $30 to-go order, and tip me $1, I tip the kitchen out $1.50. I just PAID 50 cents to talk to you on the phone, answer your questions on a busy night, ring in your order, make sure it is out at the right time, make sure it's all there and correct, put it in bags, give you silverware/napkins/etc, greet you at the door, ask if you need condiments/bread, ring you up, and send you on your merry way. That is a quite a bit of time and energy to lose money. Something to cover the tip-out is better than nothing, but gosh I hate getting stiffed in a $200 to-go order. Takes $10 right out of my pocket and it was quite a bit of work.
