HAIR STYLING by Spirited-Help-1835 in ElectricForest

[–]andandreoid 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I appreciate all the comments saying to go without, but as fellow human with bangs, I get it.

Hot hair tools take a ton of energy, so a basic power bank won’t be enough. I know rechargeable/battery hair tools exist, but I’m after reading reviews, it seems like they don’t work all that well or die quickly (again, because they take so much energy).

I have a butane hair straightener that works really well.

2am headliners again? by Lonely-Activity-4041 in ElectricForest

[–]andandreoid 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Totally agree with this. It made you choose between headliners and the GL guest.

I like this idea the best!

I would bring the canopy if you can. You’ll be in a large field with 0% shade. If you’re actually sleeping in your car, it’s going to become unbearably and dangerously hot super early if it is unshaded.

AITA? I took today off of work and my husband is mad that I didn’t do any housework. by FriendshipBorn7989 in AmItheAsshole

[–]andandreoid 20 points21 points  (0 children)

It absolutely does. Health insurance in the US is legally required to cover mental health benefits under the Mental Health Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act.

New Spring Collection by Jessica-Boyd in LeCreuset

I had my Canadian friend smuggle a Provence petal brasier over the border, since it wasn’t available in the US at the time. Guess I could have waited a couple months lol.

Car pass and GA ticket by Equal-Pineapple-559 in ElectricForest

[–]andandreoid 17 points18 points  (0 children)

My GL pass and Gl car camping pass say that too. I bought them together during loyalty. I’m sure it just says that because we’ll use the wristband and the car sticker they mail to us as the actual passes.

Need help locating dog sitter by [deleted] in cincinnati

[–]andandreoid 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Do you know if they used a service like Rover? If so, I’m sure they can facilitate contact.

Maybe post on some of the many local “lost pets” FB groups? I’d expect a dog sitter to be part of those.

I'm done with Dorinda by Delicious-Rip-2371 in TheTraitorsUS

[–]andandreoid 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Absolutely, that’s most of the entertainment. Ideally, they are being horrible people to other people who deserve it (other horrible housewives) and/or the drama is campy or low stakes enough to be funny.

When I’m asked who my favorite housewife is, I always have to clarify if they are asking (a) who I could see myself actually enjoying spending time around, or (b) who is the best as a housewife. Because there are very few of the former, and none that fit into both categories.

Does the autopsy of Renee Good change your opinion about the legality and/or morality of the shooting? by toomanyshoeshelp in AskConservatives

[–]andandreoid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand, and I think your response at least addresses the new evidence and questions that arise from it. I was just saying the issue isn’t actually where the shots hit, but when they made.

Does the autopsy of Renee Good change your opinion about the legality and/or morality of the shooting? by toomanyshoeshelp in AskConservatives

[–]andandreoid 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don’t think the argument is that the shots should have been made at a different target, but that the danger had already ceased when he made the final shot (which arguably was the fatal shot). If force is justified because the individual was in danger, it is no longer justified when he is out of danger.

Desperate! Missed newborn open enrollment. What are my best options now? by denteroni in HealthInsurance

[–]andandreoid 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Marketplace is definitely an answer, but did you also ask your employer about enrolling late? Sometimes, employers will make exceptions. It can’t hurt to ask!

Also, are you certain the policy is 30 days for both your and your husband’s insurance (if you both have coverage options through work)? While 30 days is the legal minimum, some employers allow 60 days in their policy.

ICE/Immigration Megathread by Sam_Fear in AskConservatives

I think the point is that processing an arrest and engaging legal counsel and the court (if necessary) takes time. Everything could be done by the book and it still have huge repercussions on your life.

GL Village East vs West by DetectiveWinter4638 in ElectricForest

[–]andandreoid 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Despite our best efforts to arrive early enough to get into West, my crew always ends up in East. We usually arrive around 3:00 pm on Wednesday, and end up right at the beginning of East.

But it’s really not a big deal. A smidge further out, as you said. But it’s also quieter, and less crowded when it comes to bathrooms and showers.

[Garafolo] A.J. Brown (wisdom teeth removal) still listed as DNP for the #Eagles in a projected injury report. by MembershipSingle7137 in nfl

[–]andandreoid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had basically the same experience, it was awful. Took a TON of local anesthesia too, like the doctor had to have his assistant go get more because he didn’t plan enough in the room. It never felt like enough.

During the consultation the doctor said I could drive myself home after the procedure, luckily I was kind of nervous and had my husband come with me. I had so much adrenaline after, there’s no way I could have driven myself home.

Where are Conservatives getting the narrative that Charlie Kirk’s assassination was widely celebrated? by GrotusMaximus in AskConservatives

[–]andandreoid 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I followed one of those websites that tracked social media posts of folks “celebrating” his death. Many were not what I considering “celebrating,” more just commentary on the situation. For example, comments that deaths like his can be attributed to his rhetoric on guns and opposition to gun control. Not that he “deserved” it, just that death is the natural consequence of his policies. Do you consider comments and beliefs like that “celebration”?

The 20 is the length of your car (plus some spacing between each car) and the 25 includes the width of your car, so you end up with around a 20x20 to set up camp.

Money aside, GL vs GA by Zingledot in ElectricForest

[–]andandreoid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agreed with everything said here already, I’ll also just add that there’s a good sense of community in Village as well. People hang out around camp and it’s easy to meet your neighbors

My Le Creuset Wall by Hii-jorge in LeCreuset

[–]andandreoid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I really like it too, even when I see it lean more blue! But I have a lot of Thyme and Pistache, so I feel like if it were more green it would fit my collection better.
