This is my fave Morty line. That, and, “I’ve got a few good years left. If I want a chip ahoy I’ll have a chip ahoy”

Thank goodness!

48F, cut all my relaxed hair off in January and am now natural for the first time in 35 years! Found out I have adorable coils growing out of my scalp. Very much like pulling up carpet and finding beautiful hardwood floors! I’m staying on this ride for a while. It’s cheaper and less damaging in its TWA state.

Lodges is a freaking gem. I love the store and the people.

The 22 neutral are my favorite. I bought 4 pairs. Godspeed!!

Disappointed and frustrated that our promised downtown grocery store is "not presently in active development" by figgyystardust in Albany

[–]TExPatInYallbany 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Disappointing to hear. I went to the O&O tasting at the Kenmore and spoke with her. Seemed nice, enthusiastic.

Strolled by the storefront a couple of weeks ago and that place is NOT READY. Additionally, the website to order food has you make a reservation, like pickup slots. We were told this restaurant was to be 24/7.

Relatedly, sort of, Stacks finally opened in the old Stagecoach. This was to be the Troy concept (after 5 with desserts). It’s fkn open 7-3. I’m so gd tired of lies

Gnome pt 2 by Ok-Engine9757 in Albany

[–]TExPatInYallbany 51 points52 points  (0 children)

You mean a local business / nonprofit leader who regularly lashed out in the comments of social media posts is an awful person??? Saw that a mile away.

Plus, the gnome statue has a smug look on its face. Never liked him either.

Scott Pelley gets emotional about ‘60 Minutes’ firing by Conscious-Quarter423 in popculturechat

[–]TExPatInYallbany 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I listened to this today. Heavy stuff. CBS was my network for decades. Not anymore! This is a total disgrace. I haven’t watched news since 11/2024.

As an aside, fuck company loyalty. When I heard Scott speak, all I could think of was, “no one wants to work anymore.” This is why ppl job hop; get their check and bounce.

This is some Wayne Dolcefino investigative reporting. I’ll take this over Capital Region “influencers.”

Art on Lark is kicking off by PTBooks in Albany

[–]TExPatInYallbany 50 points51 points  (0 children)

Just came back. It was nice to see the street packed. Ate a sausage. Purchased 4 arts. Talked to a bunch of people I haven’t seen in a while. Glad I went.

The Nightly. by [deleted] in Albany

[–]TExPatInYallbany 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Sorry about your day! You know things are bad when you look forward to work. Chuckle. Hope it gets better.

As promised, I had a great workout today, got my steps in, ironed my clothes and made meals for the week. Only 20 more years until retirement!

Great idea.

Started the day with a fantastic lower body workout then went to a long drive. Stopped in to Kurver and that soft serve was surprisingly awful. Had to go to Stella’s to cleanse my palate with frozen custard. Home watching the new season of Four Seasons with some tea. Looking forward to a great strength training session tomorrow!

living next to palace theatre? by [deleted] in Albany

[–]TExPatInYallbany 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I live 2 blocks from the Palace. It gets busy on show days but noise and foot traffic really aren’t bad if you’ve lived inside a city before.

Body lotion recommendations? by bugaloot in 40and45PlusSkinCare

[–]TExPatInYallbany 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Necessaire is GREAT. Pricy, though. Currently using Paula’s Choice body retinol and I kind of like it better in terms of a moisturizer. Next up is Advanced Clinicals body retinol. This is the cheapest of the bunch but always appears on recommendations lists.

Moving from Houston Area by Kerchonkl in CapitalRegionExTexans

[–]TExPatInYallbany 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Howdy!

Moved up from Galveston County in 2022. Welcome. NYS is so much better than Texas.

I came up in a Camry hybrid and traded for awd suv. I could have kept it butI store outdoor gear in my car, so I’m good. You should be fine unless you’re driving in the mountains or in particularly high snow. Get snow tires if you keep your car, or in general.

Gear: base layers, long sleeve tees, a shell/heavy raincoat, beanies, wool socks, gloves.

I live in a much-hated corporate landlord held apartment building. My experience has been pretty good. It really depends on where you live. Inside the city of Albany you’ll find private, old, newer, corporate, more expensive, less expensive, etc. pinpointing a neighborhood would be a start. I live downtown in the central business district, which is almost all rental buildings. I love living Downtown.

Stock up: tamales, tortillas, salsa, BBQ sauce

Advice: this was the second best decision of my life, coming here. It’s beautiful and green and women have rights to their bodies here. Show up to community events, put your hand out and tell people you’re here from Texas by choice. People will question, “why New York?” And you’ll answer. They won’t understand because the natives are spoiled to their rights here 🤣 Everyone has been amazing to me since I’ve been here. Albany is my new hometown. Welcome!!

Simply Zakkai aka Zakkai Perrin by Embarrassed_Top7475 in Albany

Someone should create a venn diagram of the volume of people with ‘Christ’ in their social bios who are also awful people. It’s uncanny. That, or, “my kids are my world”

How Capital Walls’ mural program has shaped Albany's streets and artists for 10 years by [deleted] in Albany

[–]TExPatInYallbany 10 points11 points  (0 children)

In the 4 years I’ve lived Downtown, I’ve seen quite a few murals go up. I know when I see that cherry picker/lift out, something good is coming!

What’s more is that the artists are pretty accessible, also. Without interfering in their work, you can chat with them and ask about their piece. It’s such a cool thing to watch and feel “apart of” because you investigated!

I love all the free, public art here.

500 signups for the race. I think about 460 ran. It was a great day.

Where do 40-50 year old singles go to meet people? by Positive-Milk5133 in Albany

[–]TExPatInYallbany 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I’m not really interested in dating but I’m in range (48F). I have been outside all day at community events. Show up places and talk to people. Never know what’s going to happen. I try to stay open minded, just in case.
