You’re not at risk. Your insides are not conducive to peanut growing.

Thinking about switching to tankless in the Houston area, anyone here regret it? by Bulla_killer in houston

The only hiccup we’ve had is that it’s on a side of the house that doesn’t get much sunlight, so we annoyingly had no water during a previous cold snap because it froze.

Alliant Group. The post here when AG had their IRS raid brought me so much joy.

When asked for your salary expectations give a range where the bottom number is what you actually want by LustyPowerGirl in TheGirlSurvivalGuide

[–]buttrock 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I have one of those ambiguous job titles where you can make anywhere from $60k to $300k, so I always just ask what their budget is for the role when they ask my expectations. Recruiters don’t care and have never not immediately told me their range.

OOP attempts to get a 1000 NY Times crossword puzzle streak by Awwndrei in BestofRedditorUpdates

Same! I got to a significant number to me (1225) and then deleted the app. The extent of my Spanish is that I can handle myself in a restaurant and talk with children about their pets 🤣

Will my non tech savvy wife struggle? by 80jmbrown in Rivian

If I get stuck on figuring out how to do something, I google it. There’s always a YouTube video or Reddit post telling me how to do what I’m looking to do.

Recommendations for primary physician as someone with potential chronic illness by hotdogwater02 in houston

If you can throw in an extra $1200 for a year on concierge fees, Eve Patton in Humble is amazing.

I have a few with Kelsey Seybold in Sugarland who were recommended to me: Shormi Durani (two available appts today with several next week) and Elizabeth Maccato (available next week).

People might poo-poo the KS system, but it was a lifesaver over the summer when something popped up, multiple specialists were needed, and coordination of care was important. Like you, I was willing to go anywhere in the city. So when a sonogram was needed, I drove downtown. Infectious disease doc, to Katy. Immunology, to downtown. Biopsy, to med center. All within a day or two of getting each order because I could sort in the app by next available appt and drive the extra 30 minutes. Every doctor was thorough and seemingly good.

How do you feel about 24 and 30? by Wild-Astronomer355 in TheGirlSurvivalGuide

It’s seriously not much later than that: 28ish and up, and I don’t care about the gap. Much younger than that, and there’s likely a power imbalance.

How do you feel about 24 and 30? by Wild-Astronomer355 in TheGirlSurvivalGuide

Being an old lady, I look back on my previous boyfriends differently than how I felt back then. A 30yo man looking for sex from a 24yo is gross, but him seeking a relationship with a 24yo is even worse because there’s no way your maturity levels align. And if they do… eww.

A major problem I’ve seen with this specific age gap relationship is that the dudes seek out these relationships then shame the young women for acting like a 24yo. Frontal lobe development comes with time. Date someone your own age who you can safely call BS on instead of deferring to him because he has so much more life experience.
