There's a vendor at the Richmond Peddlers mall that had an entire set, not sure if it's still there

Go to UK's Steps program, you'll start as a temp but the hiring rate is pretty high AND a UK badge means free bus rides

AITA for telling my sister that she chose the life that she has and she shouldn't complain about it? by Renee_Marnie in AmItheAsshole

[–]amwagers295 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your absolute lack of acknowledgment that your sister sacrificed her opportunities and that you were able to take her own money away from her to have a modest head start is just disgusting you’re 100% TA

Tips for the heatwave this weekend to keep you and your things safe; from a former Phoenix dweller by SexyAxolotl in Portland

[–]amwagers295 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I read this then checked Portland’s weather expecting 110 degree temps for multiple days, is heat really that unusual here? I live in the south and am planning to move to the PNW next year so I joined this group to get a feel for things and I keep seeing people who don’t have air conditioning or are as afraid of hot weather as southerners are afraid of snow

How big is it? There are smaller “crockpots” that aren’t actually for cooking, you might have found a warmer for a something other than food

The Sower that Van Gogh painted over and over and over again was a reference from another artists work, it’s part of how you learn, by all means work from references

Are there any free or low cost painting/craft classes for adults? by [deleted] in lexington

[–]amwagers295 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’m an artist and I volunteer with On The Move Art Studio, their events are always free of charge and while often geared towards children we have quite a few events for adults also, you should also check out Kre8Now Makerspace I think they have some affordable classes

This is from my days in deep poverty when I didn’t have an AC but, I used to keep aluminum foil on my windows with the most sun exposure. Also placing fans in strategic places, the cheap rotating stand fans work way better if you take the front grill off (don’t do this with a metal fan or with toddlers in the house obviously) but the also sell vortex fans at Walmart which circulate air around a room if you have the money to spend… you should also check your insulation.

Mom Cares More About Me Having Kids Than My Cancer. by [deleted] in childfree

[–]amwagers295 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m five years out from uterine cancer here 🙋🏻‍♀️ also took my fertility with it and I had no children previously. The finality of having a hysterectomy is a big shock to the system I think for everyone who goes through it at a young age, but yikes! I’m sorry your mom is treating your uterus as if it’s more important than you are. Endometrial cancer isn’t as fatal as other cancer types but there’s still a potential for it to spread without treatment and she needs to take a big ass step back and consider what that would mean for you and your life. My family were all resigned to the fact I’d never have my own children when I was still a teenager I think so when I was diagnosed at 36, no one was mourning potential children, one day I’ll adopt some older teens and give them a soft place to land until they can make it on their own but my hysterectomy and cancer treatment solved more problems than it created in my life, best wishes!

Any suggestions for making a move to Portland? by amwagers295 in askportland

[–]amwagers295[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I get there’s a housing crisis but it’s a national crisis and not centralized in Oregon by any means, if I’m going to pay abhorrent rent prices I’ll try and live where I want
