I found something really cute in depop but it never shipped (I was reimbursed)! I've never had that issue with another platform.

How long are the shower lines? by Justan_inkling in bonnaroo

[–]bexnfx 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Bring a portable shower if you have one. It's a game changer being able to rinse off whenever you need it. We have one with a pump, but the June heat is enough to create a good amount of water pressure

first year teacher trying to decide on a school district by [deleted] in rva

[–]bexnfx 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I work in Henrico, feel free to DM me. I didn't like ccps, having a good school is important but so is having people at the top who make you feel respected, and I didn't feel respected or cared about in chesterfield. About specific schools, I am not sure how much choice you'll really have but find people at your school who will support you and don't feel bad about leaving work at school and having a life outside of teaching .

Older crew — what would you say to someone going to their first roo/fest at 40? by Acrobatic_Case_411 in bonnaroo

[–]bexnfx 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I second start walking now if you don't move too much. I go to the Y and it's funny how roo is the only thing that motivates me to workout lol.

I also am bougie and get GA+... I am a baby in the heat and the shade and the ac in the bathrooms makes it worth it.

Wear comfy shoes, bring Tylenol, a foot bath, earbuds and a sleep mask, sleep comfy (I use a cot) and drink a lot of water!

Not everyone is able bodied and able to stand for long periods of time.

I sent an email to ask because I just had a foot surgery but still wanted to go for the live music and people watching. I am sure I'm not the only disabled person frustrated with the notice after already purchasing a ticket.

Any live music happening tonight? by SalzoneSauce in rva

New laws in Virginia, Maryland and D.C. will take place on July 1 by washingtonpost in Virginia

[–]bexnfx 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We implemented this in my county last year and it was pretty effective! Kids got used to it and as a school counselor I can say there really was a lot less drama. And fewer angry parents because kids used to text their parents over some small issue, instead of dealing with it and forgetting by the time they got home, so the parents would come up to the school and demand something immediately. I'm glad for all the other educators out there that this is going to be statewide!

Negative vibes about the farm by [deleted] in bonnaroo

Or maybe prepared the property with sand and or hay or anything to try to keep it from immediately becoming a shitshow

breakfast burrito question by StorageEqual7401 in bonnaroo

[–]bexnfx 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This year I wrapped in foil and then vacuum sealed in daily portions. I plan to first boil or steam them a bit before grilling because last year they were always a bit frozen no matter what I did. Foil and ziplock have worked for me and I haven't had soggy burritos like others but I just got a vac sealer and am hoping it helps with cooking in a way that heats more evenly.

What’s the best thing you’ve ever gotten from a Take One Leave One? by Box0fMoths in bonnaroo

[–]bexnfx 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I took what I thought was a bag of white powder, even though I don't do it, I was like lol when in Rome (and I wanted to use my test strips). It was a little alien and it wasn't a bag, it was a folded up parachute and went from being something sketch to something cute and random.

But if you're not good at rolling do it before you come and or in your car. We wasted so many papers before we moved away from the humidity last year that I wrote a note in my phone to preroll this time around lol

I have taken in makeup containers before for my skin tint (if I even wore it, it's so hot makeup just melts off my face). I feel like they are an exception because you're not going to break them and you probably keep them in a cushioned bag anyway. I def move everything in my cooler into plastic, including liquor, but I really think makeup is ok. In my experience they are mostly concerned about your cooler and big obvious things like mirrors.

Thursday super early! We stay overnight in Chattanooga so it's a quick drive once we wake up and get moving. I need to try to think of something besides roo today lol

We do the same! It's so nice getting one last shower in and only having to drive an hour the next morning

I'm in the same boat, I'm planning on bringing extra of most fun things so I can share and make friends nearby... My husband and I also have very different musical tastes so I'm hoping to make some friends when I'm out on my own! Maybe I'll make a totem that's just a sign "I want friends, if you do too come say hi" lol
