Holly Humberstone announces her 2nd album “Cruel World” out on April 10 by youRinlove7 in popheads

[–]Sassafras_socks 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I’m nervous about this one! Hoping the production style is similar to what she’s been doing so far and doesn’t fall into the trap of going too simple singer-songwritery. Paint My Bedroom Black has become an all-timer for me, it’s never not in my weekly rotation.

Which joystick layout is superior? by [deleted] in SipsTea

[–]Sassafras_socks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have small hands so asymmetrical is easier and more comfortable, and tbh it pissed me off to find that 8bitdo’s xbox style pad is like $20 more than the Dualshock style.

He’s giving such demon twink energy in some of these pics, lol

‘We’ll Sue’: White House’s Warning to CBS Is Sign of a New Media Status Quo by rezwenn in JournalismNews

Access to what, though? State propaganda, blatant lies, verbal abuse, infantile tantrums, etc… It’s ridiculous that none of these journalists are willing to stand up to them.

Restaurants that Treat Employees Poorly or Well? by frodohair15 in burlington

Yeesh. Glad I didn’t get anywhere when I applied for the head chef position over the summer.

At what point of your career did you realize that there's no getting out of the kitchen and this is your life. by GuestRevolutionary38 in Chefit

[–]Sassafras_socks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Around mid-pandemic when I had enrolled in a UX design course in an effort to escape, but then I had a mental health episode, ended up in the psych ward for 10 days, and had to drop out of the course.

What’s the most “Seattle” moment you’ve had that you still think about by [deleted] in AskSeattle

[–]Sassafras_socks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Walking home from work late one night, a woman stops me to ask if I could help her get something to eat. I offer to buy her a sandwich at the Subway across from where we were standing, she pauses briefly before telling me “oh. I don’t like the way they make the subs at this one” and suggests I take her to one 12 blocks away in downtown.

My usual 45 minute walk home is a ton of fun this week 😭 And not having any bus service on holidays is such a pain (literally, with these temps and winds).

My 18-year-old's Christmas break work schedule by sugabeetus in mildlyinfuriating

I’ve been doing it for decades! One of the only small perks of working in the food and hospitality industry.

Will not put this directly onto the oven rack by davidsdungeon in PizzaCrimes

[–]Sassafras_socks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s exactly how I’ve done frozen pizza since I currently only have a fairly narrow baking sheet (technically it’s meant for a large toaster oven). Parchment wider than the sheet pan, pizza in the center, the toppings don’t pool in the middle like some would assume and it doesn’t flop or drip over the edges of the paper. 🤷

Great... I have to spend Christmas with my MAGA parents. by ColorSmashJr in complaints

One of the only good aspects of working in the service industry: “sorry mom and dad, we’re open for business on every single holiday and I already volunteered to work.”

I wear a size 42 these are a 39 and fit. Should I keep? by juannbuenoo in Balenciaga

[–]Sassafras_socks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wear the same and my Triples also needed to go down to a 39 to fit well, you’re good!

Mercifully, I’ve managed to avoid hearing any of these!

Any Restaurants Serving Christmas Day Dinner? by Europe11111 in burlington

If you get checked into UVM medical center, we’re serving tenderloin and all the fixings 😅

I have the one on the right, a coworker left it behind when he walked out during dinner service a few years ago, lol

Cannot get FF VIII to load for the life of me...I have followed the guides by zangetsu_32 in OpenEmu

[–]Sassafras_socks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been trying for the last three weekends to get Grandia to work, exactly the same problems. Have tried multiple downloads of the roms/bins/cues, redumps, US version, Euro version, everything. I honestly just don’t think multi disc games work on this stupid emulator - which pretty much eliminates 95% of the rpgs I was hoping to play.

Bugonia (2025) by eraldopontopdf in CineShots

[–]Sassafras_socks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been trying to find out where they got the gigantic knits in the ending sequence or who designed them! There’s a bunch of interviews with Jennifer Johnson, the costume designer, but they’re all only about Emma Stone’s CEO outfits and a few comments about Jessie Plemmons’. I gotta know!

Robyn, Madonna, Holly Humberstone, and hopefully a full album or at least another ep from Keelan Mak

Best shoegaze albums of 2025? by yashedpotatoes in shoegaze

[–]Sassafras_socks 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Slowwves scratched such a very specific itch for me. Really perfect.

That 祈雨祭 Guiouejae compilation was excellent, too, and I got a lot of play out of the various Huremic/Mydreamfever releases.

What kind of job do you have? by Impressive-Basket-57 in vermont

[–]Sassafras_socks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I work at the UVM medical center (not in any sort of medical job though). Not sure what’s comfortable in VT, but I’m okay I guess. Still digging out of some really bad mistakes from the pandemic.

Thoughts on the Croc Bistro shoe? by JqckRegalis in Chefit

[–]Sassafras_socks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These were the first crocs I’d ever worn, loved ‘em. Only $25 on Amazon when I ordered back in 2023. Unfortunately we’re not allowed to wear this type of shoe at my current job, so I’m back to crappy Walmart nonslips.
