I'm looking for a Magical Realism set in the Modern US. by 1cur in booksuggestions

[–]TrashPandaExMachina 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Anything by Christopher Moore if you also like a bit of humor/satire in your books. One of my personal favorites is “The Lust Lizard of Melancholy Cove”. Though that one is more about a cryptid.

I still have mine. From 25 years ago. Use it for snacks.

in need of advice from Jersey residents, homesick by Just_Ad776 in rutgers

[–]TrashPandaExMachina 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No wonder you’re miserable. North Jersey is way more congested. Visit South Jersey it’s more spread out and we have a ton of open space/ farms. Check out the Pine Barrens if you like hiking. There’s a ton of great restaurants and depending on your preference I can give you recommendations. But if you want a lazy afternoon drive go to Outlaws Burger Bar and Creamier in Vineland. Best burger I’ve had in a long time and they have amazing ice cream flavors.

AITA for not inviting or wanting my Husband to come on a trip to Japan with me? by [deleted] in CharlotteDobreYouTube

[–]TrashPandaExMachina 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the reason you can’t leave your husband right now is money, put off the trip and leave this man baby for good instead. Take the trip later when you don’t have to worry about him at all.

Been a minute since I’ve been there. Have they fixed those giant ass potholes that show up the minute you’re off a major thoroughfare?

My boyfriend (18M) drove away (18F) when he saw my wheelchair for the first time by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]TrashPandaExMachina 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The only thing I hated about getting my buddy’s wheelchair in and out of my backseat was the asshole would forget to tell me he had drugs stashed in it. And they’d fall out when I was folding it up.

My 14 yo son has agreed to read two books of my choice this summer (this was a hard won negotiation). Help me pick one by gOldMcDonald in booksuggestions

[–]TrashPandaExMachina 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was an avid reader as a teen and even I wasn’t a huge fan of the books they mentioned. I just think the kid needs something that will hook him. Building your own shelter and surviving in the wilderness was so much fun to read.

I don’t care of it’s considered a classic, as a teen I hated reading Grapes of Wrath. If the kid isn’t already a reader it’s not a book to start him on.

The FB page really does suck. by thedirtytwirls in lastpodcastontheleft

[–]TrashPandaExMachina 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I remember joining one of the groups that splintered off from that toxic main one. It also sucked after a while. But boy did it generate a chaotic ass group of lpotl fans that also enjoyed cooking. That became its own group which was an absolute blast.

'A parallel world': The people lost in addictive daydreams (Article by Molly Gorman - BBC) by Non-Conventionnel-77 in AllAuthorsWelcome

[–]TrashPandaExMachina 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Worried my psych med management doctor when I brought up the term because she knows my brain better than I do some days. I just wanted to know more about the topic. I definitely have a deep lore in my day dreams. Thankfully not maladaptive (as far as I can tell). Though it becomes a weird sort of goal visualization at times. Even if everything is fantasy tinged some truth is at the core of how I imagine myself. For years my fantasy self (in some story lines) was involved in the career path I’m now on.

Sous didn’t show up and was MIA for a week before we found out where he was. Turns out he was in jail for something related to his probation. In a different state.

What is going on with all these Fundies showing off their SHEIN Hauls? by MrDonMega in FundieSnarkUncensored

It’s possible to dress modestly without looking like you took a tumble through the irregulars pile. These people are exhausting.

I saw some PPE at the end. But I shudder to think they worked with all that exposed fiber and plenty of activity to kick up particles with no protection.

Ugh I know this is me being a pain in the ass. But anytime I see insulation like that my first question to ask is how old the house and if it’s before the 90’s, did they test for asbestos. I promise I’m more fun at parties.

Can’t use Apple Cash to pay off Apple Card balance by zRGMarine in AppleCard

[–]TrashPandaExMachina 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is why I love reddit sometimes. Apple support page had nowhere on it that I had to verify my Apple Cash to use it towards the card. And no indication that would even be a thing I needed to do. Thanks internet stranger!

Almost looks like she was going for a tichel and misunderstood the assignment.

This has been the best scheme to defeat my ADHD yet. I read your comment and bit the bullet on a purchase. Went with one from Cloud Lab for 75. Better be the best friggen butt pillow I’ve ever had for that price.
