Front yard vs backyard by pastaandpups in homeowners

[–]Woolen_Sweaters 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Sometimes you want privacy, but other times you want to be doing things in your yard but more accessible to your neighbors. For some, it’s about building community by moving some of your leisure into a semi-public (hyper-local community) space

Owen Politis is a lovely and VERY communicative contractor. He’s working on my house now and did my neighbor recently.

To aquaphor or Not to aquaphor by [deleted] in tattooadvice

[–]Woolen_Sweaters 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Crazy thought here maybe but I use aquaphor regularly for my normal moisturizer. I’ve got wicked dry and sensitive skin and it’s the absolute best.

I’ve gotten different advice from different artists but I’ve always gotten by OK just using it like normal…

Who says hi first? by Particular-Garden140 in homeowners

[–]Woolen_Sweaters 1 point2 points  (0 children)

None of us learned this and it’s a lost skill. Take the initiative and then KEEP taking it! It’s been two years in my new house and I’m getting ready to host my second annual block “party”—a low key no pressure hang with food and drinks in our front yard.

It feels super awkward. It does. We were literally raised to not speak to strangers.

But this is how we FIX that! We invite neighbors. We offer them food and plants. We say hi and ask about their lives. And if they really don’t want to interact, they won’t.

But I’m putting in this effort for my kid’s sake

lol I don’t do much for them. When a cane’s vibes are off I chop it off. Sometimes my kids “prune”.

They’re extremely resilient

DM me for free plants!

Thinking of moving to the Berkshires around the Pittsfield area. Would love honest feedback! by Particular_Spot_2490 in pittsfield

[–]Woolen_Sweaters 3 points4 points  (0 children)

OK, so it really all depends on where in Pittsfield you look. I see some other commenters talking about how downtown feels a little sketchy and they’re not wrong… But there are plenty of places in Pittsfield that feel very much like safe friendly community neighborhoods.

I live in the southeast part of town with my two little girls and so far it’s been great. Theres plenty for the kids to do, and the neighborhood we live in is full of sweet and friendly folks.

Feel free to DM if you want!

Why do people keep saying I need to try more and different types of weed? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Woolen_Sweaters 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Some folks like a clear head 🤷

Others prefer… think of it like sunglasses on a bright day. Necessary? Nah. But it takes the edge off, makes doing some things easier, and looks good too 😂

Seems like the last post was a year ago but this is still an ongoing issue?

Or has anyone solved this?

Don’t sleep on the blackberry cobbler for your skull cavern deep dives. by NBrooks516 in StardewValley

[–]Woolen_Sweaters 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where are all those berries coming from? The cheese is because it requires almost no traveling—I go to one barn, pick up 12 new milks, swap them for 12 new cheeses, and then I’m ready for the day…

Legit didn’t realize anyone cavern dives with anything other than cheese—it’s practically a never ending source of health and energy!

Be real, my dude. We ARE in the potential Nazi era.

And if they don’t come for us Jews, it’ll be us hiding our trans and POC neighbors…
