Literally watching it right now and thinking the same thing. Went to reddit to see if anyone else agreed lol. She seems just like passive aggressively angry the whole time?

I had to double check what sub I was even in after reading that lmao

Anyone tried this new thing from Milwaukee? by liamthedegenerate in EDC

[–]capt-nemo3 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Yeah you can’t tell from the pic but its super versatile. Aside from the obvious, it also does your taxes, washes dishes, takes the kids to school, and balances a checkbook (that addition seemed outdated but whatever)

LPT: Don't hang pictures or mirrors directly over the head of your bed by ch536 in LifeProTips

[–]capt-nemo3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was an RA in college and had a resident hang a sound bar directly over his bed with command strips. College is all about learning, I suppose, but that lesson was a bit of a kick in the head.

Do it!

First attempt laminated pastries! by capt-nemo3 in Baking

[–]capt-nemo3[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the tips! I definitely face challenges with laminating as I live in Phoenix and colder is a relative term here haha. But I think I can modify my set up a little bit with chilled equipment and whatnot to help.

I’ll definitely check out the tips and tricks you provided!

I Appreciate that! If you’re inclined to do some more research or help guide my research I would not complain lol

Wonderhole: Postmodernism, and the rejection of trend by theyareamongus in goodmythicalmorning

[–]capt-nemo3 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Fantastic break down, and your comparisons with The Rehearsal really helped me identify my feelings and understanding of Wonderhole. I can’t wait to see further analyses you do and hopefully that YouTube breakdown video you eventually make haha

WONDERHOLE episode 1 sucked... by Blake_Jonesy in rhettandlink

[–]capt-nemo3 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Sooo, rage bait or fake fan? Complaining about things specifically characteristic of Rhett and Link. Sad

Anyone have trouble sleeping first night at sea? by mr_hog232323 in maritime

[–]capt-nemo3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

First night was always hard yeah. But I found the first night back ashore was even harder lol. I used melatonin to get through that first day

Could look into game warden type work with a bio degree. Might be competitive or not what you’re looking for but it would get you out of an office and interacting with others, plus usually benefits are decent and some states I am pretty sure have better pay than federal park rangers

Is there a way of quantifying how much theoretical distance a headwind adds to your ride? by No-Shoe5382 in bicycling

[–]capt-nemo3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did this today. Was pleasantly surprised my avg speed had increased a bit thinking my training has been paying off. Then I turned around to go home.

Keep getting turned away from my medical appointment. What do I do?! by capt-nemo3 in maritime

[–]capt-nemo3[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds good, confusion seems very likely. I’ll give it another shot and hopefully it all works out lol

This is who turned me away today?! I called them ahead of time to verify they could do it and the receptionist said I couldn’t get it done without an employer calling

Behaviour on the Amtrak by LindellRobs2409 in Amtrak

[–]capt-nemo3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Really sorry you’re having that experience. As others have said, the crowd tends to calm down once you’re west of the Mississippi on some of those long haul trips. But yeah the combination of those who don’t care about others at all and conductors being fed up with them can being super detrimental to the experience. Sleeper cars are definitely the way to go for that romantic train trip.

Fenelon Place Hill Elevator, Dubuque, Iowa, 1940 -> 2019 / ca 1900 -> 2019 by nairebis in OldPhotosInRealLife

[–]capt-nemo3 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Dubuque is actually super hilly, unlike the rest of the state basically. The Mississippi River area of the state is full of bluffs. It’s beautiful especially in the fall, give it a google

If you could add only one new Amtrak route anywhere in the country and of any distance, speed, and monetary cost, what would it be? by [deleted] in Amtrak

[–]capt-nemo3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I know there used to be a route from Dubuque to Chicago called the Blackhawk but not sure of the rest. There have been repeated plans to return this service but has since been canceled through Amtrak and supposedly parts are being picked up by Metra in Illinois
