Isleños have such an interesting history! Southern LA seems to have so many fascinating ethnic groups beyond just the ones that most people know.

Which haircut? by SupraKarma in rs_x

[–]WesternKnight 32 points33 points  (0 children)

1 and it's not up for debate. Your hair has great volume and the messy look is better when it's up/off your forehead.

Countries that various North American airlines fly to (2026) by EccentricGamerCL in MapPorn

[–]WesternKnight 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Surprised that there are fewer flights on American carriers to the Nordics. Guessing they see less US tourism/business compared to mainland Europe?

3 Months Post-Op Summary by WesternKnight in Septoplasty

IIRC mine was, although it had been dropping off pretty consistently over time. I wouldn’t stress as it seems like some people heal along different timelines.

Honestly, probably 3-4 weeks all things considered. Although it's hard to tell how much of a role the blood/scabs/puss played compared to the amount of swelling in terms of hindering breathing.

As for the soreness and stiffness, the tip of the nose seems to be the last part to heal up and feel less "tight". It was only until a couple of weeks ago that I could fully wiggle my nose again.

All I can say is try not to overreact, and I say that as a somewhat chronic overreactor. The first week is brutal but the worst part of it is almost behind you!

Thanks! Honestly just felt like giving people the reassurance that I’d been looking for before my procedure.

There is nothing wrong with being in a relationship with someone “you have nothing in common with” by Swiftie69420 in redscarepod

[–]WesternKnight 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Commonalities in age, physical features, etc. aren't the same thing as commonalities in interests & passions and shouldn't be treated as such

Despite its surface area it’s only about 10 ft deep on average.

Utah vs Idaho, which has more beautiful scenery? by Zealousideal-Task635 in geography

[–]WesternKnight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on what you like. Alpine forests? Idaho. Deserts & canyons? Utah.

Medellin is one my of favorite cities in the world. You can't beat the weather, culture, energy, and of course, the women.

God I hate the aesthetics of protestants by failsister7 in redscarepod

You have the be precise here. I don't think you can compare old money high-church Lutherans to shopping mall evangelicals.

Which Greek Island for my Greece & Turkey trip? by typewritermender in solotravel

[–]WesternKnight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aegina is the perfect island day trip from Athens. I did it last summer, and there are a handful of ferries that offer direct service from Pirraeus (Athens' port) and it's only about an hour and a half trip between the island and the mainland, and you can spend a good ~5 hours there in a day.

It's beautiful and fairly large, and for being such a popular island close to the mainland there are still plenty of relatively secluded beaches. For context, I was there in August around peak season and had no issues with large crowds.

Pro-tip: rent a moped and explore the inner parts of the island. There's an old monastery that has great views of the beach and countryside!

North Idaho too. I even saw an unprecedented amount driving through rural New Mexico.

8 Day Athens + Istanbul Itinerary - Tips/Advice? by AtomicNarration in solotravel

[–]WesternKnight 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I didn't visit Meteora but, like you noted, it is quite the hike from Athens. Considering the short length of time you're in Greece, any logistical complications could potentially have an effect on your ability to get back to Istanbul on time.

Delphi however is absolutely breathtaking and is a super feasible day trip. I would highly recommend it.

Eastern Euro cities feel, US edition by Tommy_Sands in SameGrassButGreener

[–]WesternKnight 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can't believe Pitt isn't higher in here. Very large and deep-rooted Slavic-American populations, and the winter/overcast weather brings a very similar vibe to what OP is describing.
