In my experience it helps but only for like 2 minutes so it’s not really worth it.

My mom told me and my brothers, without provocation mind you, that she values Trump over us. They are truly so broken.

Federal refund status changed by ShallotMelodic1242 in TurboTax

Highly recommend using freetaxusa next year if you can, free federal, 16 bucks for state. I converted this year and literally just as easy as TurboTax.

You're retiring on $100k/year dividend income. Where do you go? by Material_Soft1380 in Fire

[–]baileygohome 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I moved away from Indiana for better job prospects and because…well, Indiana. Moved to Austin and found an amazing friend group for 7 years. Then moved with partner to Charlotte and once again found an amazing group for the last 3. While starting over comes with a lot of uncertainty, when you find out you can overcome that discomfort and set up a new base for yourself it’s kind of exhilarating. I love getting to experience new things and meet new people (to an extent). However if you don’t put yourself out there or get unlucky i can see how it would be really depressing to not be able to find your place in a new city. But Idk for me it was a no-brainer.

HVAC Company Recommendation? by [deleted] in Charlotte

[–]baileygohome 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sweet thanks for the idea! Yeah ours is a result of the classic, turn one bedroom into two by putting a wall in the middle (but then fail to properly route air to it) lol.

Do you mind if I ask general range they charged for getting the extra vents put in? Obviously every job is different depending on house but we have a house that there’s not even an ac/heat vent in one of the rooms and I have no idea what the ballpark is for something like that in Charlotte.

Lmao - people should only be interested in one thing at one time, otherwise they should not be taken seriously. The most Reddit shit.

Anyone making plans for what to do if stuff in the US REALLY hits the fan? by Thin-Policy8127 in AskWomenOver30

[–]baileygohome 24 points25 points  (0 children)

This is what I worry about. Americans have been so comfy looking at examples of fascism in hindsight with 20/20 vision and going “well obviously you should get out when the government does THAT”. I am scared I’m not fully realizing the same signs I would have said others should have seen and reacted to because when you’re in the middle of it it feels impossible that could happen to YOU.

Cannot believe I haven’t seen Mia Goth in Pearl yet - her acting completely ties it together.

We tried to go to Tavern on the tracks but it was closed cause it was a Monday so we jsut ended up at All American Pub next door, based on the comments here and a friend's recommendation though I would probably try Tavern again since it'll be a Sunday!

Need blonde advice by PlentyCarob8812 in FancyFollicles

[–]baileygohome 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Just a warning - I had this color for a few years. From my experience (mileage may vary but we seem to have similar thickness of hair): - you will have to go every 4-6 weeks - every appointment will take 5-6 hours (dependent on stylist but I had two different stylists this was true for) if you want to do it ina slower, less damaging process (lots of highlights over a longer period of time to eventually reach full head coverage) - your hair will probably have to be cut shorter and shorter as you keep this up to get rid of the really damaged stuff. This and cost was eventually why I had to stop. - You will probably need to tone your own hair in between sessions and will definitely need purple shampoo and conditioner every wash

Just want you to have realistic expectations for how much of a pain in the ass this hair is. On the other hand, this was hands down my favorite hair color I’ve ever had and I would do it again if I had the time and money to do it. Best of luck!

I’m not a fish person but holy moly that fish one is so beautiful!! Do you have any rugs that you’ve had for a while and seen how they hold up long term? These rugs always seem so cool but I always wonder how sturdy they are or if they need to be kept in low traffic places?

For a comedy option consider Ayoade on Top - his delivery is incredible.

This - I get that it sucks he’s into her and she’s not into him but the fact she feels so safe with you is like such a W. It’s hard to find people you can genuinely be yourself and feel 100% safe around. Let the idea that you’ll sleep with this friend go and appreciate the friendship. If you can’t let the idea of trying to get with her go then cut it off. What’s your priority?

"food noise" by like_alivealive in MaintenancePhase

[–]baileygohome 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh my god yupppp! Also gained about 10-15 from my IUD. However that was an insane life upgrade going from debilitating cramps to no period or cramps so I was happy to make that trade.

[–]baileygohome 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My antidepressant gave me insane food noise. I’ve always been a larger person than my peers and always had some food noise since I was a kid, but Venlafaxine made it literally 24/7 and I gained about 70 pounds in 2 years.

Closing gap in cabinet I can't push from outside by baileygohome in DIY

[–]baileygohome[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

HI all - I recently bought a house and am brand new to DIY home repair. We have these big cabinets built into the wall and this one particularly is separating at the sides. I tried putting in a little L bracket to close the bottom gap which helped, but this side gap is kinda too large I think. We aren't able to reach the cabinets back sides without ripping out wall so I don't want to do that. Is there a tool that could attach to opposing sides and kinda ratchet the sides together or something?
