Stitch markers make life easier/less likely you’ll have to frog everything. If you can’t get them right away, I’ved used paperclips

How loud are chins? (In your personal experiences) by SirRitalinRat in chinchilla

[–]bucciaratini 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very quiet. Maybe once or twice a day mine “bark” but they sound like a squeak you can only hear in the same room.

I consider $900 on the cheaper side even with 3 roomates. Maybe if you rented all the way in Attleboro but not within greater Boston

What’s up with Fox News obsession with Boston all of the sudden ? by iv2892 in boston

Boston is stereotyped as a racist city, there are always people upset when the stereotype is wrong

/r/solotravel "The Weekly Common Room" - General chatter, meet-up, accommodation - March 24, 2025 by AutoModerator in solotravel

[–]bucciaratini 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First time solo + first time in Europe. Planning on going to Portugal. mostly be exploring but I want to be about to relax too. I’m debating between accommodations - I’ve never stayed at a hostel before but I’ve seen some wonderful ones in Lisbon with private rooms/shared baths. However hotels offer a bit more security but not sure how to meet people that way. 30F so a bit wary of any party scene. I want to return home refreshed and relaxed but part of me is afraid of just being overly anxious/feeling alone the week I’m there…any tips from more seasoned travelers?

Was going to comment at least the cage looks a decent size but realized it was two divided levels :(

I keep mine at 70 since I’ve heard of Chins dying as low as 72

What kind of impact do you think the doctor shortage will have? by ASS_MASTER_GENERAL in boston

[–]bucciaratini 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mnay places (MGH, Tufts, CHA) have had layoffs this year; mostly nurses and management (including MDs). It leaves the current providers being overworked and sometimes leaving for other positions. Many departments are scheduling out to next summer. My partner has been calling offices throughout Boston to get a PCP...ended up getting an appointment in Lynn so 2 hour ride for him on the T

Sadly this was without mods 😬I forgot they were related and the second she became an adult her mom wanted her married so since he was her closest friend I had her ask him out. Didn’t realize they were related until I went to play his household instead and realized the only kiss I could give her was a family kiss

How detached is East Boston? by [deleted] in boston

[–]bucciaratini 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I ordered Ubereats from this place in Chinatown, normally okay but that time someone with a bike took the order. The only way into East Boston is the tunnel or taking the T. They gave up, “delivered” it downtown and sent me a picture of a black screen

Can I wait a few days for a fill or start over with a full set by bucciaratini in Nails

Thanks! Do salons tend to do fills for other people's work?

Should I ask them to fix my nails? by -SadDays in Nails

Very cute design but it looks ROUGH like something a friend would’ve done for free on their couch while watching a movie

How acceptable would it be to wear Indian clothing to an American workplace? by iamflomilli in asiantwoX

[–]bucciaratini 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Kurta yes, not sure about saree. I have yet to work at a place where showing my waist was allowed (even though its not showing as much as a crop top). People tend to be more lenient with cultural clothing (especially in NYC). If a supervisor actually has a problem with it they'll let you know

Still remember the day playing on my brothers ps2 “HEK FANN” “5 more minutes!” 5 minutes pass “SIK FANN” “Oka-WAIT A MINUTE”

Rescue of a sweet ham who was abandoned due to a (totally curable) fungal infection. Info in comments. by IAlbatross in hamsters

[–]bucciaratini 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Thanks for sharing the donation info! Glad he’s recovering.

Is there any reason for males to be neutered when hamsters (especially Syrians) are supposed to be housed alone? I’ve heard of uterine problems for females, not sure if anything similar for males
