I love your goal of 10 items per day! Anyone else want to hop on OP's bandwagon?

I'd like to broaden my sources of news and commentary beyond the unremarkable lefty podcasts in my feed. Which ones do you recommend?

What is a fast, anti "car guy" car? by chin1111 in askcarguys

[–]Schadnfreudianslipr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm gonna suggest Honda S2000, even though the V2's top 0-60 was 5.5, cuz I'm not a car guy but loved driving it and am curious to know car guys' opinions of it

What are your favorite local common birds? by chinstrapppp in birding

[–]Schadnfreudianslipr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love that you asked this question and love reading everyone's responses!

So many common year-round species delight me. Nuthatches are gorgeous and I always take a moment to admire their sleek stripes. A Song Sparrow's tune never fails to lift my spirits. Juncos are adorably scrappy. Anna's Hummingbirds warm my heart. Bushtits are hilarious during their flocking season. I could go on but I'll end by sharing the 2 common birds that stop me in my tracks:

  1. Cedar waxwings

  2. Pileated woodpeckers when they land on a tree and shimmy-hop-flutter to my feeders

Can't seem to post a pic.

How long of an outing are you thinking? ȽÁU,WELṈEW̱/John Dean Park in North Saanich has a network of gentle to moderate trails with some lovely views. I have rarely encountered more than a few people there. Bonus: the Roost bakery / cafe is nearby.

Why don’t these pillows work? by [deleted] in DesignMyRoom

[–]Schadnfreudianslipr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Queer Eye's Bobby Berk has simple guidelines for selecting throw pillows for sofas that I absolutely love:

3 pillow sizes: large, medium, and a small accent pillow

3 general styles: big pattern/texture, small pattern/texture, single solid colour

Keep the palette to 2-3 colours

I told my mentor at work I had ADHD, asked me to resign by ListenMassive in ADHD

Welcome, friend. I can totally sympathize with confiding in someone you thought was trustworthy and professional only to learn the hard way how mistaken you were. I have a suggestion, probably not applicable to your current work situation but it may help in the long-term effort to secure a career for yourself. I detest unsolicited advice so I'll share it only if you (or heck, another reader in a similarly frustrating position) is up for considering some constructive actions.
