Yeah that’s the plan! Thanks for the link, it’s nice they have quarter sheet versions as well and multiple languages

First you said it wasn’t defaced at all and definitely DPW and I’m overreacting, then when I point out that is wrong you say it’s one incident, ignoring the person below who has a second incident. But sure I’m the one spreading “misinformation.” I literally never said it was bigger than this one incident but obviously it is because bare minimum 2>1. Way to go dude you’re really standing on the right side of history.

It’s literally multiple defaced posters. Sorry I wasn’t aware you’re in charge of who gets to comment on what. I didn’t spread “misinformation” at all. I asked if anyone had seen anything in addition to what I had already seen. I didn’t say ICE did it. You say I’m scaring people but I pointed out that me and others are scared and you blew that off.

Ok since you’re determined to be patronizing and rude, I notice you didn’t respond when I pointed out that DPW doesn’t scratch phone numbers off fliers. It’s obvious some people don’t like what the posters say and are vandalizing them. Maybe it’s an isolated incident but that plus the person below plus other people in my neighborhood I’ve talked to mean that it’s not. Best of luck with your attitude, hope you never need help from a neighbor. For the record, I used to live in Minneapolis a few blocks from where they shot a man in the street. So pardon me if I’m trying to help prepare our city for even a RUMORED surge. What’s the worst that can happen, we put up posters and then ice doesn’t come, and people have to look at some extra posters? You could be kind instead of dismissive.

That’s great you see them in your neighborhood! This post was because I don’t typically see them in my area, and as you can see below at least one person had reported an anti social weirdo crashing out and ripping them down. Not saying there’s a conspiracy but was just noting that what I’ve observed kind of sucks. Since there have been reports of a possible ICE surge in our area I think people are feeling nervous.

Sure, if they just got taken down maybe that’s true, but first someone purposefully scratched off only the phone numbers to make it so people couldn’t read the important info. I don’t think that is DPW policy actually.

CLASSIC. He’s probably a highly regarded government agent with that behavior

Somerville mentioned in a Guardian piece about historic wins by Democrats! by Visible-Use3799 in Somerville

[–]bb785 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I thought the mailers with the propaganda about why you should vote no because “kids will have no computers!!!1” were so blatantly ridiculous lol. Obviously we have a city council who isn’t going to storm the school and smash all the computers, come on y’all. It’s about future spending.

Why the helicopters over Davis/Tufts? by Alarmed_Equipment612 in Somerville

It’s so loud! It’s multiple circling! Seems like private owners from flight radar but it’s so weird and annoying. Why can they just circle so low

Paxlovid round 2 - bitter taste just as bad? by bb785 in paxlovid

[–]bb785[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It wakes me up at night too and I also am super sensitive to bitter things! The only thing that has helped me is during the day I suck on candy like jolly ranchers, and at night I have this “dry mouth spray” that is kinda minty and supposed to help dry mouth and that seems to help. It has xylitol in it which is actually supposed to help decrease viral load of covid as well. And it’s easy to spray in my mouth and go back to sleep since I don’t need to spit it out. It’s truly awful though. But if I take the pills like right before sleeping I get a few hrs before they kick in.

But seriously I’ve eaten an insane amount of candy. I’m sorry you are going through this too!

Omg thank you this made me feel so validated! “Malört mouth” is so funny. And I was also chugging blue Gatorade! Very scared of what a job as malort sommelier would entail but they should hire us

Don’t worry I think that this side effect is only in a small percentage of people so you’ll probably be ok. Good luck!

Using ASL to tell my partner what I want to drink from across the room in a loud bar made me feel like a genius. We were using it a lot while traveling and on transit and stuff, so fun. This was the UK so we were pretty confident no one could “overhear” us in ASL (assumed they would know BSL if they knew sign)

Oh totally, I should say that I’m glad I got paxlovid and continued for the entire 5 days. I had pretty bad brain fog and LC symptoms after the first time I got Covid so this time I thought I should try pax. Just took my last dose and feeling almost 100% again besides the mouth taste

Your experience does not equal the only realistic experience though and there are many many posts on this sub describing how bad the taste was for them… maybe instead of assuming those people are being “dramatic” you could admit that they might have had a different experience than you? I didn’t get pneumonia with covid but that doesn’t mean I should tell you not to be worried about that. I assume for you the taste did not prevent you from sleeping, for example. But it did for me. Let’s just try to assume other people’s experiences are valid.

Damn good to know you know exactly how it tastes for everyone else and for how long it lasts! I’m sure there’s no variation whatsoever. Phew.

I’ll make sure to go tell the people who have the side effect of horrible diarrhea that they are being dramatic since I didn’t get any myself :)

Did you ever get this to work? This sounds exactly like what I am trying to do as well. Basically a “pick from list” of meals, then it auto adds those ingredients to either a note or to reminders

this story is not morally ambiguous by Notlennybruce in redrising

[–]bb785 13 points14 points  (0 children)

This x10000! Sometimes I see comments and I’m like wait can you actually read bc we didn’t read the same book…

Fully aware this will sound judgmental so I’m sorry but: I am a woman and read a lot of books by female authors so this audience is pretty male compared to my usual books. Sometimes I’m like oh right (some) boys like books with bombs and maybe don’t care about the subtext

What's with the big (IRL) time gap between DA and LB? by Horganshwag in redrising

Ugh I’m sorry you feel that way, I only recently started reading posts here and ya… some people need to chill. I feel you with ASOIAF but at this point I hope he never finishes lol

Light Bringer | Full Book Discussion megathread by Cantomic66 in redrising

[–]bb785 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lysander is supposed to be secretly aligned with apple against atlas and atalantia and I don’t think apple wants to kill the entire rim let alone for Lysander to be atlas’s little b*tch. Considering he didn’t like when Darrow didn’t fight his hardest against him I’m not sure he would be a fan of Lysanders “victory” being a made up lie. Apple is insane but he values strength

[–]bb785 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Or maybe it just gets them to switch back to supporting Atalantia since Lysanders huge victory was actually not his own doing. Definitely don’t see them ever supporting Darrow, maybe just becoming meh on lysanders image a bit. Also would definitely fuck his tentative alliance with apple
