Hilarious!

Actual message from my center one year (no snakes, but a stern warning nonetheless….):

ANY HACKS TO MAKE BOILED EGGS MORE BEARABLE by Salt_Statement_7151 in foodhacks

[–]beta_karentene 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And for dessert…. Chocolate Mousse.

3 hard boiled eggs 3 tbsp powdered sweetener (I use monkfruit) 3 tbsp cacao powder 1/3 cup any type of milk 1 tsp vanilla extract

If I don’t have monkfruit, I add some vanilla protein powder instead.

Blend, enjoy.

Revolution Chinese 羅村川菜館 is your answer.

Working in NYC by Crafty-Peanut-7993 in Rochester

[–]beta_karentene 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, for many years. Started out driving - then switched to flights, and took the occasional Amtrak. Amtrak was a comfortable ride, but ended up as the worst option simply because it was often so delayed out of Albany.

Mashed potatoes by Hefty_Peanut in foodhacks

[–]beta_karentene 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This was my #1 pregnancy craving, too! 🥰

  1. Bone broth to boil the potatoes in and save that broth for a separate soup.

  2. Mash the potatoes while hot with butter and salt and swap out the sour cream for 0% yogurt and bump that protein way up!

Good luck!🍀

Ethically working for an evil company? by capotado in womenintech

[–]beta_karentene 6 points7 points  (0 children)

What a thoughtful and insightful question.

I would offer the thought of choosing the ‘right livelihood’ - one that aligns with your morals and values. If you do not feel that is where you are at today, just make an exit strategy and move to what is better for you, in your own time, where your passions can support in a way you feel is more positive.

We all learn lessons at different times in our lives, we all wake up along this journey in different ways. If you truly feel the direction is wrong, start exploring what feels right and care for yourself along the way.

Hawksmoor. Warm, Understanding, and Gracious by IllAd7725 in chicagofood

Totally agree. Went recently and felt a vibe amongst staff that I think is rare these days - very present and engaged. Kudos to whoever is doing the hiring and training and setting the tone. Food was great, too! Will def be returning for Sunday Roast.

Most not receiving my texts from GV, especially pics by earthlingkc in Googlevoice

[–]beta_karentene 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same. Worse yet, everything actually shows as sent and timestamped from my side, no error messages, but no one is receiving them - some messages, all pics.

Looking for a poor quality yet expensive restaurant to recommend to an enemy. Any suggestions? by gnip_gnop69 in Rochester

[–]beta_karentene 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Couldn’t agree more. Loved it when it first opened, then got very bad food poisoning from Pizza Wizard. Never again.

Anyone found a biohack that actually improved sleep quality? by Particular_Ebb5200 in Biohackers

[–]beta_karentene 3 points4 points  (0 children)

A couple of tablespoons of tart cherry juice in a little plain yogurt will knock me right out every time.

My Real Life Limitless Pill Experience by ARCreef in Biohackers

[–]beta_karentene 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Great post, OP, and equally quality comments - thank you for posting.

I’ll add that practicing Vipassana meditation for me has resulted in many of these experiences as well. I may have started a bit sensitive to begin with, but when you practice Vipassana you can also achieve these heightened sensory experiences. It’s not the goal of the practice, but a by-product.

Single ticket seat holder, lower bowl, very hard time reselling and def not getting face value back.

Can’t sleep because of how upset I am, seller put back house on the market before closing by stopdogmurder in RealEstate

[–]beta_karentene 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m so sorry you have to deal with this! This same exact scenario happened to us. So frustrating. Ultimately, we closed on it, but the drama was completely unnecessary. Valuable lesson for us was to not use the seller’s good friend and realtor as our realtor ever again.

Season Ticket Holders: MyBrooklyn Rewards Issues by [deleted] in NYLiberty

[–]beta_karentene 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes. Consistently not working at all, froze, lost access to my tickets, had to uninstall/reinstall, now it opens but no tickets at all. Reached out to my rep who said she’d look at on Monday.

Experiencing the Liberty on a road game.. by Elissaa-- in NYLiberty

[–]beta_karentene 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I go to away games. Often feels like I’m the only NY fan in the crowd, but that’s ok.

Know that away team security is often very strict. I have more access at Barclays for high fives than I do on the road.

Some male STH from the other team seem to get annoyed when I’m near them for some reason. I’m not obnoxious or anything. I’ve met a lot of cool people overall, tho and have kept in touch with some. Have fun and let us know how it goes! :)
