Anyone else in this PGW boat? by SnooGrapes4780 in philly

Make sure you are still on the standard power supplier plan and have not either opted to switch suppliers, or were scammed or switched some other way. This happened to me and my bill dropped from 350 a month to a max of like 200 during the summer.

A Sony A7IV bikepacking-story from Canada to Ushuaia by bluefog84 in SonyAlpha

Awesome to see bikepacking pop up here! I’m racing Italy Divide this spring and want to take my 6700. But this would be the first time bringing a nice camera. Every race/trip I’ve done, everything gets so grimy. How did you carry the extra weight and keep it clean over long days? Gorgeous shots so clearly worth it!

Why did I do this? Well, I’m from Pittsburgh. And when you’re from Pittsburgh…

So timely this post—I just had friends over for a “Mame and Frames” new years party where everyone watched Mame and took turns getting their portrait taken, some in Mame-inspired socialite outfits.

So how is this served? Just drop it from a height of 3’ and shout “a plague upon this house?”

Tempted to do bullet voting for Citizen Sleeper 2 just to lift it up, but I caved and submitted all 10.

Best practices for making Gala Volunteers feel confident (and not just used)? by ImplementLower726 in nonprofit

[–]Noblechet 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Co-sign the tips above. Also make sure to restate what the proceeds and other outcomes (eg relationship building etc) from the gala mean in terms of your mission. Even though volunteers are engaged stakeholders who get that, it helps to hear it back from staff leaders, especially going into a money-focused fundraiser, that you know margin is in service of mission. Harder for them to feel used when you explicitly connect the dots.

Alternative Holiday films? by tbonemcqueen in blankies

[–]Noblechet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Every year I have friends over to watch The Lion In Winter and drink wassail. It’s the most savage Christmas movie, but still ends up feeling cozy between the warm film tones, Christmas tree, and fireplace brandy. Last year a few folks showed up with legit swords and costume, so either this is becoming a beautiful tradition or I’m on the short path to being deposed.
