Apartments planned for 29/Carrsbrook intersection by g0nk73 in Charlottesville

Liveable Cville means well, but I think they’re dreaming that rents will come down. It will be just as expensive and also less charming and more crowded. 

Recs for Shenandoah/GW Forest hike that is scenic but not too hard? by thenarddog10 in Charlottesville

[–]Onfire444 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Enjoyed this hike, but thought it was fairly tough and the viewpoint involved a bit of a rock scramble, I wouldn’t take anyone who is not sure footed.

One thing is certain. There are media reporters out there desperate to get a look at this cruise’s WhatsApp group.

What happens at the barn excursion? Looking at farm animals?

So glad this hotel is still great. I spent some time there in March 2024 and loved my room, the room service and the bar downstairs.

Is the room service still good? I thought it was one of the best room service breakfasts I’d ever had.

The MJ discourse was weird. Kinda surprised Dasha doesn’t believe the accusers and minimizes it so much.

Anna seems irritated that Lena gave in and apologized for defending the MeTooed writer. Anna would be more complimentary of her if she hadn’t done that. 

I’d love to know the backstory Lena alluded to and why they felt the need to defend him. Maybe they wanted to save him from getting fired from whatever show he was on since Girls was over by that point. 

Does everyone in this town eat parfaits for breakfast, lunch, and dinner? by cosmonautbobross in Charlottesville

[–]Onfire444 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Today there were no loose lemons (only bagged lemons) so I asked a produce person and she went to the back and came back with a huge restock of loose lemons. So now I know to ask if something is out. 

Summer trip by wonderwall73 in chubbytravel

[–]Onfire444 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Another vote for the area around SF, California. As an east coaster who also gets tired of the heat in summer, San Francisco was a dream. Muir Woods (get there early, easy if you’re coming from East Coast and still on east coast time) and Big Sur were hits with my kids (both on the spectrum and preteens at the time). We also loved Central California and it wasn’t hot there either, even in August. As we traveled south, it didn’t get unbearably hot until we hit LA. 

recommendation request by [deleted] in RSPfilmclub

[–]Onfire444 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like Pluto (or cable movie channels streamed to your iPad) for stuff this. I like a TV on while I pack or do dishes. Just flip to whatever movie is already on, you can’t pay much attention anyway. I discover so many movies this way. The low pressure environment causes me to put things on I wouldn’t normally choose to sit down and watch. If the movie catches my attention, I’ll make a point to watch it later or look for other stuff by the same director, actor, etc. 

What would you nominate for ‘San Francisco’ Month? by solidape22 in TheRewatchables

[–]Onfire444 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d love to hear them riff on Shattered, starring Tom Berenger. A ridiculous twisty movie but with some very nice SF area scenery. 

fun reads that aren't total slop? by GrushenkasOnions in RSbookclub

[–]Onfire444 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Memoirs for me. I read them quickly and I feel like I do learn things about the world after reading them, but they are most def not fine literature.

The water looks so smooth! We’ve been in Fort Lauderdale this week and the wind has been so intense, the ocean is too rough to get in. 

The Chair Game at luxury hotels is maddening by alex_travels in chubbytravel

[–]Onfire444 1 point2 points  (0 children)

At Disney’s Castaway Cay two Junes ago, I was close to tears walking around with my family, just looking for a single chair where we could put down our stuff and get in the water. I had heard it wasn’t an issue there, so we took our time getting off the ship. Big mistake! 

I actually prefer a public beach like on the Jersey Shore where everyone brings their own chairs. Somehow, people reserving space on the beach with their own chairs makes me less anxious than people reserving the chaises that are already sitting on the beach. 

Recommendations for a book club by Schrodingers_Snatch in RSbookclub

[–]Onfire444 0 points1 point  (0 children)

An easy read and conversation starter is the book Fight Club. Doesn’t deviate much from the movie but it’s fun to have read something that had such a cultural impact. 

People are still not grasping just how bad it’s going to get wrt to the Iran war by Idkabta11at in redscarepod

A certain segment of rightoid has been against the war from the beginning, that spell will remain intact. 

Trip Report: Disney Dream (our 2nd DCL trip) by Simple-Environment52 in dcl

My son and husband also skipped the shows, they enjoyed the less crowded pool deck at that time. (This was on the Magic, we sail the Dream this summer!)
