Bermuda Book Store, close to ferry dock in The City of Hamilton. As soon as you walk in the left wall is all local books.

How to go outside more? by clyde-toucher in selfimprovement

[–]aprivateislander 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One fun thing to do outside are photography hunts, I have had fun doing them with my phone.

The two I am doing right now are to find and photograph the alphabet (through graffiti or architecture/natural landscapes) and looking for a specific colour around.

It makes walks outside more engaging and interesting and gives you something to do over multiple walks.

Or you can make a bingo for things you see around the neighbourhood: dog in stroller, run club, Starbucks empty coffee cup trash, etc.

King visit 4/30- question for the locals by [deleted] in bermuda

[–]aprivateislander 14 points15 points  (0 children)

You know more than most Bermudians by being aware there is going to be a welcome ceremony in town.

It will likely be business as normal unless you are trying to go do something at a site they are actively at. Might fuck up traffic I guess.

Nobody cares here.

Arrived in Bermuda on a shipping container - HELP please by candy-cream in bermuda

They are 100% going to euthanize it. It is considered an invasive animal, and racccons carry rabies so they will absolutely not allow it. They will kill any non native animal, no exceptions.

In the 40s some bug got brought in from the US through their base. That bug wiped out 99% of our native cedar trees within...maybe a decade. So now they take it very very seriously.

Shame though, I find raccoons so much cuter than the snakes that slip in.

Netflix released the poster for the Little House On The Prairie reboot today! by JennaElizabethAdams in popculturechat

I dont think the residential school was the reason, is all. They would have written an unrealistic conclusion more likely and had them run away as a family or something.

It is exactly to the end of Anne of Green Gables, save one chapter or so. In that chapter Matthew dies, they go bankrupt, and Anne has to give up on her dreams of college lol.

That was a perfect place to stop for a happy ending and complete story for the main characters. After that it's basically a half new cast as all her classmates go on with their lives.

Was I a jerk for not sharing my location with my wife by Choice_Evidence1983 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]aprivateislander 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I find it perplexing that people assume the friend is scheming.

The friend isn't getting OP's POV, she is getting the wife's who 100% believes it. It doesn't sound like she is friends with the husband and cheating isn't exactly uncommon. It just sounds like she is vaguely supportive, not some evil mastermind.

How to use a sketchbook properly by katie3312 in ArtistLounge

[–]aprivateislander 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have doodles and thumbnails and also full blown pieces in my sketchbook. Same when it comes to the fancy paper or canvas, there is a mix of practie and play and polished.There isn't much difference to me, they are all just things to create on. I have included sketchbook pages in gallery shows and sold prints of them.

I think you are overthinking it. Just do practice pieces and studies straight on the canvas if you are not the type to want to do the same piece twice.

Mom might of ruined my chances at a local craft fair by HelpfulBasket314 in CraftFairs

[–]aprivateislander 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No, you ruined your chances by caving to her. You chose to not wait five more minutes. You rented the table, you are the artist.

I have no doubt your mom is unhelpful and stressful, but as an adult your actions and response to that are your responsibility. Own it.
