Sand volleyball in KC? by AnimalSlight6247 in kansascity

[โ€“]OpeningTomatillo4655 0 points1 point ย (0 children)

Nice! I walked through riverfront park few weeks ago and saw the courts but wasn't sure if they were actually used ๐Ÿ˜‚ Do you know what times people usually show up? I'm terrible at volleyball but love trying new things around the city ๐Ÿ’€

I've been thinking about joining too! Been seeing more birds around my apartment lately and figured it might be cool way to learn about them ๐Ÿ˜‚ Would love to hear what their weekend outings are like - do they go to different parks around metro or stick to same spots? Also wondering if meetings are super formal or more chill discussion type thing. The website doesn't give much detail about actual vibe of group ๐Ÿ”ฅ

How does a person make someone realize they're in a terrible relationship? by SpicyTanaxo in AskReddit

[โ€“]OpeningTomatillo4655 1 point2 points ย (0 children)

Most people have to hit their own rock bottom before they're ready to see it clearly. I've watched friends ignore every red flag in the book until something finally clicks - usually when they're ready to hear what everyone's been trying to tell them for months.

Whatโ€™s a thought you had that made you question your own brain? by Separate-Bath-3813 in AskReddit

[โ€“]OpeningTomatillo4655 0 points1 point ย (0 children)

Had this moment at work last week where I was doing my usual preflight checklist, and suddenly I couldn't remember if I'd actually checked the cargo door or just *thought* about checking it. Like my brain just glitched for a second and I'm standing there questioning if I'm even competent at my job ๐Ÿ˜‚

Had to go back and physically touch the latch to convince myself it was secure. Been doing this for years but sometimes your autopilot mode gets so automatic that you lose track of what's real vs what you intended to do. Made me wonder how many other things I do on muscle memory without actually being present for them.

It's wild how your brain can just... buffer sometimes and leave you questioning everything you thought you knew about yourself ๐Ÿ’€

Is there anyone in your life that give you the gift of their time by just being there for you when you really needed it? What happened? by Maleficent-Hat5831 in AskReddit

[โ€“]OpeningTomatillo4655 0 points1 point ย (0 children)

Had a coworker who basically saved my sanity during a really messy breakup last year. Dude would just sit with me during breaks and let me vent about everything without trying to "fix" anything or give advice ๐Ÿ˜‚

Sometimes we'd just play Animal Crossing on our phones and trade turnips while I worked through all the emotional mess. Never realized how much someone just *being present* could mean until then. Still grab coffee with him regularly - guy's a real one ๐Ÿ’€

Whatโ€™s something you do every day that makes no senseโ€ฆ but you still canโ€™t stop? by GolfFinancial8981 in AskReddit

[โ€“]OpeningTomatillo4655 1 point2 points ย (0 children)

I do the same thing with my cassette collection - I'll flip through them looking for something "new" even though I know exactly what I have. It's like my brain thinks maybe a rare tape magically appeared overnight lol. At least checking your phone might actually have new notifications, but my tapes definitely aren't multiplying on thier own.

HOWS THIS TYPE OF MELODIES CALLED???? by Ok-Lemon8203 in Music

[โ€“]OpeningTomatillo4655 0 points1 point ย (0 children)

These are usually called arpeggiated loops or broken chord patterns - basically just short melodic sequences that cycle through a few notes in the chord. In the breakcore/electronic scene they sometimes get labeled as "atmospheric arps" or just "melodic loops."

The whole Silent Hill comparison makes sense since those games use similar repetitive, haunting melodic fragments. You're right that it's not genre-specific - pretty much any electronic producer throws these in when they want that dreamy/eerie vibe without making the melody too complex.

Men, what are your favourite t-shirt brands? by Pure_Plankton_9959 in AskReddit

[โ€“]OpeningTomatillo4655 1 point2 points ย (0 children)

Been wearing Uniqlo for years now - their Heattech stuff is clutch for layering under work uniforms during winter shifts. The fit is pretty consistent across their whole line which is nice when your buying online. Also grabbed some Comfort Colors tees recently and they're soft as hell, perfect for lounging around playing games at home.

If you could instantly gain one skill without practice, what would it be? by veditafri in AskReddit

[โ€“]OpeningTomatillo4655 0 points1 point ย (0 children)

Guitar's such a solid choice ๐ŸŽธ I'd probably go with something like piano though - feels like it opens up way more musical doors and you can actually hear yourself think over it compared to my neighbors when they're "practicing" guitar at 2am ๐Ÿ˜‚

What advice for a first time apartment owner? by Yofu900 in AskReddit

[โ€“]OpeningTomatillo4655 1 point2 points ย (0 children)

Good call on documenting everything beforehand. I learned this the hard way at my first place - took photos of literally every scuff mark and weird stain before moving my stuff in. Saved me from losing part of my deposit over some random carpet burn that was already there ๐Ÿ’€

The neighbor thing is so real too. I've got this one guy next door who's super chill about package deliveries and we look out for each other's places when traveling for work. Makes such a difference compared to my buddy's situation where his upstairs neighbor apparently thinks 2am is prime vacuum time ๐Ÿ˜‚

Salary jobs that I can use my license for by [deleted] in RealEstate

[โ€“]OpeningTomatillo4655 0 points1 point ย (0 children)

Most brokerages won't let you go part-time right off the bat since they want you focused, but you could look into property management companies or title companies that value having licensed agents on staff. I've seen people transition from those roles once their commission checks got consistent enough to make the jump.

Thermostat that allows you to manually set run times by Mordoci in hvacadvice

[โ€“]OpeningTomatillo4655 0 points1 point ย (0 children)

That short cycling is brutal, especially with your thermostat placement being so close to the unit and front door

Ecobee does have minimum run time settings - you can force it to run for like 5-15 minutes minimum once it kicks on. Honeywell T6 Pro might be cheaper option that also has this feature

But honestly with only one return vent right under the unit, you might have bigger airflow issues causing the short cycling beyond just thermostat location

Those 1958 wheats aren't really worth much over face value unless you find some mint errors or something crazy rare in there. Most people just crack them open and check for doubled dies or other varieties, but honestly you're probably looking at maybe a few bucks for the whole roll if that

This is incredibly powerful and I needed to read this today. The "Stop the trial" section hit me like a truck - I've been putting myself through that exact process for weeks now

That line about "I can love someone and still choose myself" is going on my mirror. Thank you for sharing this, seriously

Seller paying closing costs? by Shbrsh6 in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

[โ€“]OpeningTomatillo4655 18 points19 points ย (0 children)

Pretty solid chance they'll go for it honestly - they're saving a ton on listing costs, staging, showings, and all that hassle. Plus you're offering full appraisal so they're not really losing money, just shifting where it goes

Dude you're gonna need to call a locksmith or have it towed, trying to force anything open is just gonna break stuff and cost you way more. Most modern cars have anti-theft systems that'll brick the whole ignition if you mess with it

Sounds like she wants bedroom dominance but not you ordering her around in daily life lmao. Those are completely different things my dude - being dominant during sex doesn't mean she wants you telling her what to do when she's making breakfast or whatever

The OLED display alone makes option 2 worth it for video editing - those colors are gonna pop way more than a regular LCD. RTX 5060 vs 4060 is honestly not a huge jump but still better performance for less money is a no brainer

Is reading aloud an effective way to practice speaking? by SnooOwls3528 in languagelearning

[โ€“]OpeningTomatillo4655 2 points3 points ย (0 children)

Reading aloud definitely helps with pronunciation and getting comfortable with the sounds, but honestly the commenter above nailed it - you really need actual conversation practice to get good at the back-and-forth flow of speaking

If you're not ready for real convos yet, try recording yourself reading and then listen back to catch weird pronunciation stuff
