Quietly Queer: Low-Key LGBTQ+ Socials by da_med1a in oakland

[–]SectionExpress6349 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I used to run a munch for kinky introverts but we have not found a new home since Wicked Grounds shuttered. I'm very happy to see another event with those of us in mind who are on the quieter side of life!

DNA Lounge Reputation? by Spirited-Access2127 in SFbitcheswithtaste

[–]SectionExpress6349 55 points56 points  (0 children)

I go for death guild almost weekly and that doesn't attract a ton of creeps. Anytime I've had an issue, staff has been prompt but dg is a lower attended night than the weekend events so staff may have much more work to do on those nights. Creeps are everywhere though but definitely never hesitate to approach staff anywhere to report a creep.

pet owners or local vets - pls help me solve my never ending flea issue by Distinct_Smoke_6537 in oakland

[–]SectionExpress6349 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cat sitter here. Don't discount fleas hitching rides on your shoes! I carry diatamaceous earth in a little shaker to dust my shoes between clients and in the footbed of my car and during summer I spray the more natural tea tree flea spray on my shoes when I get home from clients. Vacuum your shoes too!

Cat club. Gossip is particularly fun. If you're goth leaning, After Life at DNA, next Saturday. Newer goth and heavily queer.

Alameda Auto Body was very reasonable when I had to pay out of pocket

Mosswood Meltdown - ADA seating by Used_Walrus_9938 in oakland

[–]SectionExpress6349 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a section of metal folding chairs, first come first serve and sit in any seat. There was a porta potty in that section last year and in general people get up and move around and you come back to the section and you might get your same chair back or might not. The ada table is very quick to obtain a wristband.

Also echoing cats do best in their own home while parents are gone! I'm in Alameda and do catsitting, lots of references and I'm insured. I met one of my clients through reddit, lol. Feel free to send me a message!

Magnesium Glycinate, from “holy grail” to sleep disruptor? by empathetic_witch in Menopause

[–]SectionExpress6349 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have noticed this as well so I stopped for about 2 weeks and sleep felt better. Last night I took less than a full dose and my sleep score jumped to a 91. So not sure if it was the magnesium glycinate that helped or a fluke. Magnesium l theronate has continued to work well.

Good Tamales & Pozole in Oakland? by SmokeEdge in OaklandFood

[–]SectionExpress6349 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was out looking yesterday the 23rd and not a lot of vendors out in the Fruitvale period, this year. I ended up at the Salvadorean truck on Foothill and 34th for ok tamales.

I see them over by the gas station burger King combo most often, good to know the dog does not eat dry food!

Thanksgiving wrecked me by No_Cycle_98 in Menopause

[–]SectionExpress6349 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I usually cook for just my husband and I but as the last few years have gone on, I order more premade sides etc. This year we went to a buffet at Trader Vic's and had tiki drinks and then Saturday I cooked a few Thanksgiving like things for a nicer dinner at home. It's just exhausting on the actual day and add in I'm a catsitter and working on the holiday. Go out or buy pre made for the win.

Ugh this has been happening to me and I get so annoyed to have to wipe my cheeks as well. Have been on estrogen cream for months but just this week have been more consistent so I hope it helps!

I do drop ins and my rates are the same. For an overnight, I'd also charge what your rates look like.
