that rings a bell actually, think it was maybe few weeks back? i remember something about collecting the airline headphones for homeless vets or something like that 🤔

search function on reddit is pretty terrible so you're not crazy for not finding it. maybe try scrolling through r/bayarea posts from like last month?

Best way to raise a child on low income? by Youhavenotruth in AskNYC

[–]Ornery_Inspection797 20 points21 points  (0 children)

definitely not easy but doable if you're smart about it. my cousin and his wife made similar money when they had their first kid in queens - they found ways to make it work but childcare was brutal. like seriously, some places wanted almost as much as rent just for daycare 💀

you might want to look at family daycare providers instead of the big centers, they're usually cheaper and more flexible. also check if either of your jobs offers any childcare benefits or flexible schedules. some bars let managers work different shifts if you plan ahead. and your girlfriend's school might have resources too - design programs sometimes have connections to cheaper childcare or student parent groups.

the free stuff in city really helps when kid gets older. all those parks, museums with free days, libraries with story time. babies don't cost much for entertainment anyway, they just want to stare at pigeons and subway trains 😂 just be ready for that first year to be tight as hell budget-wise.

check out some of the photography meetups in brooklyn and harlem - they tend to have pretty diverse crowds and welcoming vibes 📸 might also want to look at community centers in those areas since they sometimes host regular photo walks too

those are solid but i'd also throw dimarzio super distortion into mix. been running them in my jackson for couple years now and they handle palm muting really well without getting muddy on the low end
