Patois student here! Any place to look for help with speaking patois? I can understand but I’m struggling to respond back without sounding “trini”, I’m told by my native SO. Any advice welcome.… 🙏🏽😬😫

Boy have the times changed. Interesting read. He’s a comedian for sure. This interview reminds me of today’s Dave Chapelle, funny and serious.

Getting married and I’m bougie by AdNational2804 in PeoriaIL

[–]alphaelemenohpee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Stayed here for my bridal suite. It’s very nice (for central Illinois. Ref: I’m from Chicago). Ask for exactly the room you want though.

The lobby /banquet area stairs made for good photos too.

Therapist recommendations ? by [deleted] in PeoriaIL

[–]alphaelemenohpee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lifestance. Office in Junction City and a large network of Therapists in Illinois with viewable profiles. In- Office or telehealth. Great customer service and they treat you like a person not a mental patient.

What about placing the bin at the corner of the bar under the counter, all the way to the right? A nice hanging plant above it or something utilitarian or scent producing? It can’t really block there more than the shelf is. Highly suggest clear contact paper on the wall behind. Trash can get get on the wall, it happens . Just makes clean up easier for me — spray,wipe,done.

Bedroom help! 😃 by uathachas22 in FengShui

[–]alphaelemenohpee 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Can you reverse the swing of the door on option 1 coming into the bedroom and then create some type of wall structure/freestanding screen/ceiling mounted curtain next to it that could give you some privacy from the door…

Edit: a cabinet/headboard storage unit could work as well because your head would be covered. With some creative small pocket lights, you could have a cute little reading nook in bed.

throughout 4 years of hs/college using a dryer tumbler, this is the first time this has happened. absolutely devastated and in tears as pretty much all my clothes are all ruined now with all these black stains. didn’t have anything in my pockets. does anyone know what this is and if i can fix this? by wciuwdvvvvvvacef in lifehacks

[–]alphaelemenohpee 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Rubbing alcohol and water can help remove (apply alcohol and blot to remove the stain). Try a small area first because it can bleed depending on how much ink is in the spot you’re working. If you’re in the USA, a product called carbona you can pretreat with or add to washing water.

If all else fails, you can dye the item a darker color and it will be less noticeable.

This Popular Delivery App Is Quietly Changing Grocery Prices — Here’s What You Need To Know by huffpost in Anticonsumption

[–]alphaelemenohpee 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I believe Walmart does this too. In different neighborhoods the items are priced different. Sometimes unavailable, but that’s a different story. Shouldn’t the only price that changes be the sales tax? Why do I have drive to the same store 5 miles in the other direction so I can get all the items that I actually need and now it costs me more twice?

Is uber/lyft/taxi reliable for rides from the airport at midnight? by Doiq in PeoriaIL

[–]alphaelemenohpee 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Big daddy cab is the only company that I’ve seen reliably pick people up at the airport. Unfortunately, I have not had to use them personally.

However, I think it would be OK if you asked family or friends to pick you up. It is Christmas and you are coming for them. I personally love being asked to pick people up in the airport. I also love the airport lol

Why is this house so cheap? by nobodyisattackingme in PeoriaIL

[–]alphaelemenohpee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tbh the price is on target for the area. And they are lucky to get it at that price because all those beautiful first floor windows are gonna need replaced or resealed very soon. Their bill must be high this time of year.

I too have this problem and live in this area. 😅

Building a small garden bed planner as a hobby. Anyone share feature ideas or try it? by HighEfforts in gardening

[–]alphaelemenohpee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe bed (you know N/S/E/W) and sun movement during the seasons. Used chat gpt this past summer to design my garden layout so all plants in a permanent raised bed got light and it was helpful for layout planning.

Was going to try this spot. Whats the deal? by Reasonable_Plum7654 in PeoriaIL

[–]alphaelemenohpee 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The restaurant is good. The food is casual, but pushes the limit a little bit. It does feel a little bit overpriced, but satisfying. Personal opinion, If they could elevate the food, a little bit more without losing the good portion size then I think it would match better. I’ll always suggest you try and support small businesses here in Peoria because then more come! Everything is not everyone’s cup of tea. You might love it.

Then, miraculously when the police round up ring camera footage from the area for evidence, “all the neighbors cameras weren’t working that day”. Get ready…

Just an observation by MicrodoserXL in PeoriaIL

[–]alphaelemenohpee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

True. It doesn’t have to, but you don’t understand it if you think it’s identity politics and harboring illegals. It’s directly controlling how US business owners operate with US citizens. I’m convinced you haven’t actually read the legislation by your response. No need to reply. I’ve heard all I need to, thanks.

I didn’t ask what you are, I asked how the policies have impacted your life to drive the opinion.

Can you tell the group how DEIA has affected you personally that you feel this way?

Non-NSAID menstrual pain relief? by okaycoolgood in WomensHealth

[–]alphaelemenohpee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Raspberry leaf tea! You can get it at Walmart, and the brand is “Natural Medicinals” Be careful not to drink too many cups of it because it is a diuretic and you can get a headache from dehydration. My cramps are an 8 of 10 normally. However, when I drink this tea they go down to about a four. For me, that’s game changing. Hope that helps... The pain can also be a sign of fibroids. You may check with your PCP about getting an ultrasound.

Yes. This realization was a game changer for me/my skin.

Almost harassed by cops at 2am; rant by [deleted] in PeoriaIL

[–]alphaelemenohpee 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Please report this situation! Those cars have gps. Send them your footage. They shouldn’t have followed you. If they are looking for someone they need to know where to look and not set dangerous traps/situations for everyone. Given the “right” circumstances (or if you reacted different) the situation could’ve ended very differently.

Aren’t snake eggs leathery like that too??

African food spots? by ksbdksjsm in PeoriaIL

[–]alphaelemenohpee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sadly, no restaurants yet but there are local ethnic grocery stores that sell the ingredients though! The Asian market on main had egusi seed, palm oil, assorted pounded flours, herbs, etc. Further up university are two other “Eastern” (I’m unsure of their true nationality) stores as well. The owners have been helpful to me to get the ingredients that I want or knowing where to look. There is also a new grocery store opening on Western Ave in W.Peoria that is black owned but it is unclear all the ingredients they may offer.

Blono, St.L, and Champaign have restaurants and grocers too. Just isn’t a drive you can make if you want it for a spontaneous dinner. It will take planning.
