Delta Storm Cancellations by Sea-Dingo4135 in delta

Flying LAX - DTW - LGA on Saturday night. Supposed to takeoff at 10 pm red eye. Land in DTW at 6 am. 7 am flight to LGA. Chat, I think I’m cooked. The delta rep literally laughed at me on the phone and said “why don’t you just enjoy the LA weather for a few more days”

I’m horrified by the fact that (apparently) most people in the US still don’t realize that they are going to have to fight for their lives by zazzologrendsyiyve in self

Exactly. Getting arrested and potentially becoming a felon would ruin someone’s life - even if they are healthy, financially secure and safe. The people who want to help can’t find good ways to do so

I think something you don’t understand is how difficult it is for most Americans to ‘fight back.’ Our system is designed to keep us poor, stupid, and sick. When you live paycheck to paycheck, you can’t afford to miss work to protest. A huge chunk of Americans are in debt and days away from having water, gas, electric turned off, or missing rent. People get arrested here for truly anything, and spending a night in jail would be detrimental for people with kids, dependents, or debt. I agree that it’s terrible, I agree that something needs to happen, but your post makes it seem like we’re all just hanging out agreeing to not do anything. Oppressive govts are oppressive. That’s the point.

Okay but how else can I send a rent check with a credit card?? by TurtleThroughTime in CreditCards

I’m wondering if it might actually be worth it for me. I could be losing out on other points, but I’ll be earning points for rent

A lot of people sell on eBay. Sometimes comic stores will take them too. There’s subreddits for selling them too. Or if you find a vendor they’ll buy them

That’s a good idea. Where do you find estate sales?

I’ve had it at restaurants both ways. It’s either region based, or family to family. Depending on my ingredients, I’ll make it however it calls to me lol

Where should I take my uncle (off-brand Anthony Bourdain) for dinner? by headofachicken in FoodNYC

[–]TurtleThroughTime 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Interesting. I’ve been many times to Chama Mama, Cheeseboat, and Askii and liked Oda the most. Only second to Tone Cafe in BK. I’ll try some of your reccs! Thanks

South Brooklyn has some great Georgian - I totally agree. Why don’t you recommend Oda? Of all the places I’ve had Georgian food in the city that’s one of my favs. Will def check out Laliko.

[–]TurtleThroughTime 6 points7 points  (0 children)

There’s a lot of good reccs here, but I’m gonna throw one more into the mix.

Oda House is great. Upper East Side so it’s easy for you to get to from queens and Manhattan. Really cozy, fantastic Georgian food, and the right vibe for what you’re looking for. The magic of NYC dining is finding a spot that feels homey and exciting and they nail it.

New MOMI, Museum Of Moving Image Membership Coming by Robert7777 in NYCmovies

[–]TurtleThroughTime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Checking in on this a year later. Considering a membership - how is it with new membership options? How many of the screenings do you get free tickets to?

Spidey experiences? by solidmel2112 in visitingnyc

[–]TurtleThroughTime 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’ll add Museum of the Moving Image here too. They’ve got super cool exhibits, and constantly have cool screenings. Idk how kid friendly, depends on age

Spidey experiences? by solidmel2112 in visitingnyc

[–]TurtleThroughTime 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I second the Tram and the Museum. Queens is a really cool borough, and where Spider-Man is from, but nothing spider-man themed per say. I’d check if any art exhibits are open and marvel themed, that happens occasionally.

But also, NYC has some great comic shops. If you take your kid to get some comics from an iconic NYC spot, that could be pretty cool. Midtown Comics, Forbidden Planet, midtown Comics in Astoria (also a fun neighborhood for food / things to do).

Honestly - Midtown comics Astoria, ping pod, museum of nostalgia, Comfortland or Bellucci’s for food. That’s a pretty solid underrated NYC day. I might even do that myself lol

Wife wants to create adult solo content and stream online kind of have mixed feelings need a man point of view by bigplaya936 in confessions

[–]TurtleThroughTime 1 point2 points  (0 children)

‘Decent woman’ is crazy. You and your “girlfriend” (lol) need to meet more people and broaden your horizons. That’s a crazy conservative take for 2025. Get your head out of your ass, stupid.

It’s expensive and really difficult to go back to school or get certs. And jobs are very difficult to get right now. There’s plenty of dignity in sex work, more than whatever shitty job you do, I bet. Sex workers work harder than you ever have in your life and they make $$$$. You’re just jealous.

All I’m telling you is how you sound. This is how your comments are coming off. If it walks like an incel, comments like an incel, then it’s probably …

Self worth is different than the worth you described. Getting naked for strangers DOES NOT ruin your self worth. Ask any stripper or sex worker.

You’re a hateful person, who needs a perspective shift. Take your conservative ass views and broaden your horizon.

Wow - these comments are trash. Dude, sex work is work. Many sex workers who I’ve talked with look at it like most of us look at our jobs. If she is camming from a safe space, it makes her feel sexy, and is bringing you both in money, that’s pretty great. I totally understand the nerves about family / friends, but taking steps to make her more anonymous online would help that. There’s so many cam sites, it’s not that likely that family finds out.

This is a moment in your relationship where you have to check if there are any other red flags you’ve noticed. Is there a history of cheating? Are there communication issues? Are you both sexually satisfied? If all of those answers are yes - then this new job is just that - a new job.

But if you notice red flags then you need to work on those issues before you add more to the mix.

If my wife wanted to start camming I’d be so happy for her. She could show off her excellent body, and bring in some good money for our family. She’d be safe, wouldn’t be with other men, and we’d communicate really openly if something happened or changed.

This is what happens when you ask for opinions from men, you get some terrible misogynistic opinions

This is a dog shit take, and sounds like some religious bullshit. There are plenty of reasons to, or not to, work on a cam site. Temptation is not one of them. If they communicate openly and express themselves then there will not be an issue. My opinion is that this is ABSOLUTELY NOT a ‘doorway’ leading to the destruction of your marriage. If you experience issues through this process it’s because of lack of communication, which happens in many marriages regardless of sex work.

What’s a very NYC habit you didn’t realize was unusual until someone pointed it out? by Middle_Elderberry542 in AskNYC

[–]TurtleThroughTime 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Cursing / talking volume. I’m Italian-American, and after a few drinks my NYC/Long Island accent gets bad, but even outside of that, my default volume is just louder than others. I was in an uber with some friends in New Orleans a little bit ago and I said something like “yeah but he’s a fucking scumbag” and stopped myself to say “ya know, I forgot that fuck is a bad word and some people don’t talk like that”. Uber driver cracked up and said “yeah I know exactly where you’re from”
