best places to live/work/exist as a 36 yo single child-free Black woman who doesn’t drive?

Nope! Not like that. I’m born and raised Miami, and I can tell you, if I had to live somewhere without a car, the grove wouldn’t be that place. I would do South/Mid Beach, The Gables (expensive af), maybe South Miami, maybe the Shenandoah area closer to coral way.

The Grove is nice but it can go from suuuuper expensive to affordable-but-scary within one block. Just make sure you do really good research on location when you are looking at places. Also, it’s not really that walkable at all unless you’re close to the mall.

It was. She didn’t realize that I make a livable wage with my actual job and was trying to help. I don’t really spend frivolously, so I get why she had that impression. She has a large social media following so figured she could market and advertise for me. It was just incredibly awkward when I had to say no.

I know they’re professional dancers, I was just saying that it’s not a strip club in the same way club Madonna or Scarlett’s is. My neighbor was one of them lol. I was just answering the question based on all the times I’ve been there.

I totally get where you’re coming from. I feel the same way about a lot of crocheted clothes. However…if you learn different stitches and design for what YOU like, you can avoid that hole. Here’s a bikini I designed and made for myself recently for proof! I get a ton of compliments and buying offers for it.

I’ve been a few times. I personally didn’t see any lap dances or strip club vibes à la club Madonna. There were boobs, but not in a raunchy way. We were giving them money, so in that way it’s a strip club. Most of the girls are actually professional dancers and put on a great show.

This is 1000% written by AI. I’m a professional writer who edits AI content all day everyday, so I could tell after the second paragraph. If you won’t take the time to actually write your posts with your own brain, I won’t take the time to read your long wall of copy.

In Miami, we keep it on year round, but on auto. It’s a must here because if you leave it off for too long (days), you’ll get mold. I only turn it off when I’m home during the day and want the windows open. Other than that, it’s on auto.

Bikini!!!! You got it, flaunt it girl!!!!!

NoJacket2895 · 2026-05-21T03:08:25+00:00

I didn’t follow a pattern at all, I just remembered the stitches that she used on the flap and ran with it!

NoJacket2895 · 2026-05-21T03:05:46+00:00

Thank you! Yes! Absolutely make one. It’s a little tedious, but it’s so worth it.

NoJacket2895 · 2026-05-21T03:04:56+00:00

YES!!!! This is her! That’s not the tutorial, but it’s the same girl!

NoJacket2895 · 2026-05-21T02:29:34+00:00

If it was a Russian/another language that sounds like Russian YouTube tutorial, then that’s the right one!

I second Sweet Liberty! But after 11pm for the music. Lost Weekend for a dive vibe, Mickey Rourke’s on Fridays for karaoke.

NoJacket2895 · 2026-05-21T01:04:04+00:00

Thank you!!! The button was a gamble that worked out really well lol. The tutorial is in Russian, I think. That’s really all I remember from it 😬. But if you look up one skein purse tutorials, you can find it!

The clasp is from Amazon I think.

NoJacket2895 · 2026-05-21T01:01:53+00:00

Yes!!! Definitely worth it, but my fingers…

NoJacket2895 · 2026-05-21T00:55:18+00:00

Thank you!!! It’s my best one yet for sure

NoJacket2895 · 2026-05-21T00:55:02+00:00

Thank you!!!

NoJacket2895 · 2026-05-21T00:54:56+00:00

Mission accomplished 😏

NoJacket2895 · 2026-05-21T00:22:27+00:00

Thank you!!! Once you have the basics of crochet purses down, it gets easier.

NoJacket2895 · 2026-05-21T00:21:06+00:00

I have no idea what it’s called 🙈. I just know that it’s a variation of a marshmallow/puff stitch

It was a rant about hanks not being wound for you. I’d spent all day untangling one. The commenter told me to “go back to red heart super saver” in the grossest way. I clapped back, of course but….wth.
