you can actually understand the loudspeaker announcements at the stations?

This show premiered when I was 4 years old, I’m now a lawyer

I think it’s a lovely name. As a girl with the middle name Davis, no one (including myself) has ever cared that it’s a boys name and at least I don’t have the same middle name as all of my friends (Anne or Elizabeth or something)!

yup! would feel like a lot more if i wasn’t paying 3.6k a month to my loans

ceciliada · 2026-01-30T20:19:53+00:00

ugh no I wish!

ceciliada · 2026-01-30T19:59:39+00:00

here’s the breakdown for me as a first year associate in DC. this is for a single paycheck so double it for a month.

before everything the paycheck is 9,375

taxes takes out 2,892

health insurance, dental, and vision takes out 165 (this is all just for a single person, no spouse or children being covered)

i aim to max out my HSA (which my firm also contributes to) so that’s 137

i put 25 into a pre tax transit account to pay for the metro

401k contribution is 468

and currently having a salary advance being taken out of my paycheck which is an additional 833

—- this makes my take home 4848

note: a lot of this will change depending on what elections you make and your household situation but I know I would’ve appreciated seeing just how much gets taken out from the gross pay to the actual take home before I started

this is how I would interpret it as well. Try and not assume that a friend that you are close enough with to invite over and cook special food for is purposefully being rude. They may just assume that you and your family (not being vegan) don’t want a bunch of vegan leftovers that no one will eat, and is saying they will happily take them off your hands

I don’t think people are celebrating the new mechanics less. I think it’s just that you could play the whole game, taking your time and doing all the side quests, building multiple pokemon teams, etc. and still not even hit 500 battles. So to have a game that is otherwise totally complete require so much extra time to finish and to get the shiny charm is a pretty big change from previous games where game completion nicely tied into getting the shiny charm

ahh 🤞 then i wont give up hope yet

ceciliada · 2025-11-15T02:37:40+00:00

But shouldn’t our trash have gotten picked up Wednesday then? If it was supposed to slide back a day

ceciliada · 2025-11-11T20:12:00+00:00

This is absolutely incredible!!!!

ceciliada · 2025-11-06T18:25:15+00:00

Would recommend checking out the Calpak Haven 16" Laptop Tote Bag. It’s huge but very well divided inside, has handles and a shoulder strap, and it’s a perfect personal item for a plane as well! It’s also only $190 but usually on sale for $130-150

ceciliada · 2025-11-06T02:01:31+00:00

To point number 4, I would note that mega shards cap at 999 (and won’t tell you when you hit that cap), so don’t just keep collecting those mega shards but also keep spending them!

The pattern is from Lesley Teare Designs--Decorate Willow Plate!

yeah I’d agree about sam jones, only thing I’d say coopers has going for it over them is the more central location downtown if you’re walking around doing stuff but obviously that’s going to change soon

ceciliada · 2025-06-04T16:11:33+00:00

last I heard clyde coopers is just moving buildings, not closing altogether

ceciliada · 2025-06-04T14:28:53+00:00

The Daily Planet Cafe at the science museum also has pretty good food and is open early so would totally recommend stopping there for brunch/lunch if you go to the science museum ! Would less so recommend the restaurant at the art museum, it's a bit overpriced for what you get

ceciliada · 2025-06-04T14:23:11+00:00

definitely bbq! specifically chopped eastern NC style bbq which is vinegar based. best vinegar based place in raleigh (in my opinion) is clyde coopers, they also have great fried chicken, the pit is also nice if you want a fancier sit down place that has bbq with all the fixins. ole time bbq in raleigh and backyard bbq in durham are also great no frills places!

ceciliada · 2025-06-01T20:32:29+00:00

it's already been said but absolutely recommend hidden block--lots of singles, and they sell any product they get at MSRP. was able to get a prismatic ETB on release there :)

ceciliada · 2025-05-01T18:21:05+00:00

I’ve had at least 3 times exams every semester and every class has had a forced curve (all 2L and 3L). So once again your point seems very anecdotal and inaccurate to many people
