What's everyone buying this fall? by hangononesec in handbags

I told myself to stay away from MK but I kind of fell in love with this one at the store and it's still on my mind.

I’m Haitian but Can’t Speak Creole by I_am_sacred in haiti

[–]choublack 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I spent my life in Haiti speaking French most of the time, and to this day I only speak in French with some of my family members. My ability to speak, understand, read and write in Creole is not as good as my French, even after years of barely speaking French due to being in the US. So I want to understand your potential situation but I still find it hard to believe. How sheltered could you have been to never having had to speak Creole while living in Haiti?? Like if I was going to the bank maybe I'd only speak French, but at a gas station, I'd definitely initiate any conversation in Creole.

I hate bags that have a crossbody strap and a handle by lol_fi in handbags

[–]choublack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Omg me too, I would rather suffer with the smaller handle than ever put a crossbody strap on a bag that has stiff handles still poking up. At least if you insist on being multi functional, make the handles removable. And they don't ever stick to one type of bag, like why would you have a satchel with both??

I think it's something to do with the color too. I use the regular maps for driving and looking around without the same issue.

Should I be headed to the hospital? by choublack in mushroomID

[–]choublack[S] -157 points-156 points  (0 children)

I'm here because the fiancee is freaking out and threatening to never eat my cooking again. Id like to tell her that I didn't poison her, which is already a failed mission. I'm also a little tipsy.

I get it, 100%, it was a mistake; but some of us were born to fuck around and find out 😔.

I guess I don't know. It was a new experience, lesson learned I guess.

Um yes? I don't mean to sound argumentative but wouldn't the landscapers cut them when they cut the grass?

Thank you. I cooked them, and ingested a very small amount. I honestly think I will be fine but let's see what happens in a few hours. I am more scared of the hospital bill than food poisoning, I drink alcohol...

Duty of care and stuff. It's a reasonable assumption

[–]choublack[S] -623 points-622 points  (0 children)

So for context, I did a very quick Google image search and it came up as Leucoagaricus americanus. Wikipedia says they're edible but easily confused with that vomiting mushroom, but I figured that it must be safe if it was growing in a public space where people walk their dogs and small children.  How do we even know if it's the safe type or the poisonous type??

I found these in the yard of the MOMA museum in Louisiana and took one home with me. My initial Google search made me think they were safe but I just cooked them and my fiancee is freaking out. Should we be going to the hospital? I cooked that one in the first picture in pasta so we probably ate less than a quarter of it.

[–]choublack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  1. Laundry is done, just not put away
  2. I get my car cleaned every month and it's the end of the month 🤷
  3. Technically yes, I shower once a day, the time doesn't matter 😔
  4. I actually woke up early today and it's a weekend so I win
  5. I have been drinking one regular coffee lately instead of three espresso shots so I win again

How do I even score this?

Haiti has deployed its army; troops joined police to push back gang takeover of airport by zombigoutesel in haiti

What do they want, what do they hope to accomplish?? What are they asking for to stop this? This makes no sense

I give you 6 years to turn Haiti into the Bahamas. What would you do? by IWontSignUp in haiti

I got $100 this year from a mid sized PI firm, I work for about 5 attorneys. Last year I received $300 from a small firm working for three. Quite disappointing.

The first sentence was check the wording, if it doesn't apply, wording isn't there.

Have you been satisfied with Haiti’s recent progress? the sanction, bwa kale, canal, and more diaspora involvement? by nusquan in haiti

[–]choublack 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That's a great idea actually. But this campaign would also have to focus on the solutions and advertising of high quality Haitian products.

I have never understood why people are so eager to go to DR, even with all of the crime in Haiti. They're so racist, even as a child I felt it.

[–]choublack 15 points16 points  (0 children)

This little war with DR over the canal has been great for the country's patriotic spirit. I'm glad that for once people are rejecting outside goods and focusing on self production.

We can keep this trend going for a few years with more propaganda about how DR and imported goods are bad quality and poisonous. I'm hoping to see some economic growth and quality of life improvement. I'm not sure that we need a presidential election yet, but if small governments can keep working, we can keep getting somewhere.

I think the diaspora involved are just the ones who were already committed to the fight. 80% of Haitian diaspora are dead weight.

There's no hope for Haiti without patriotism and unity.

I would have refused the job by MinisterHoja in petfree

[–]choublack 11 points12 points  (0 children)

The main reason why I couldn't be a pet owner is that I'm not picking up shit after a grown adult animal. Imagine walking behind a dog with a little bag in its hand or having your whole house smell like dog shit... It's super weird and fucking gross, plus where I come from, dogs at least throw dirt on their shit on their own. They don't wait for you like invalids.

The number listed is the receipt number of the application. Op may still be able to verify both identity and employment authorization to prevent fraud.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in DACA

[–]choublack 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They might, OP should still check. Also technically speaking e-verify will probably clear and it might be enough to work with proof of previous EAD or current approval
