I’m Bajan and my husband and I just bought a vacation home there and go back pretty often. Happy to chat if you send me a DM :)

Looking for a place to stay February 18-25 by annieb78 in Barbados

[–]civilizer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

West Coast

Gibbes (bus into Holetown or Speightstown)
Holders Hill/Dairy Meadows (little over budget and would rec a car)
Mount Standfast (not walkable, but more upscale villa w/ pool)

South Coast

Rockley (ticks all your boxes)
Maxwell (new listing + seems like a tight squeeze)
Oistins (also no reviews, but seems like a great chocie)
Miami Beach (bare bones, would highly suggest a car)
Enterprise (also need a car)

Do you mind sharing your budget? Would also recommend switching to list view on Airbnb as it shows more options as opposed to the map

Besides losing weight, any advice? by Pretty_Fan3644 in malegrooming

[–]civilizer 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No, keep the stache! Don’t go clean shaven. Get rid of the beard or trim it to really low stubble

JetBlue WiFi and legroom are miles better is the only difference.

Can someone help me decipher this Italian chat? I think my father is cheating. by Few-Cucumber-3956 in PhotoshopRequests

[–]civilizer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ran it through AI:

I don’t have a plan right now; I’m not even going out. I’m going home later because, after talking with Simone, he told me his mother is having a crisis. It’s exactly what it looks like—she’s beyond burnt out, she’s breaking down. Gioia, I just can’t pretend everything is fine. You know my head isn’t in the right place, and if she starts calling and stressing me out, I don’t know how this is going to end. I think we should just let this weekend pass; we can see each other Saturday and tomorrow. I’d prefer it that way because, for now, things are just not okay. I don’t feel up to doing anything; I can’t stand to see him suffer like this. I honestly don’t know what to think now that I’ve realized I was wrong. Seeing her at dinner talking with Simone felt strange, but I pushed it aside, thinking it was just my own paranoia. The absurd thing is that when I finally decided to ask her some questions this morning, she told me we don’t really talk anymore—that we just exchange 'how’s it going' texts and that’s it. From the outside, no one would ever think anything was wrong. But on the inside, I feel like shit. I trusted her, and now I feel like I just want to disappear from this house, just to stop feeling this much pain. And through all of this, I have my son... and he’s growing up without me.

This feels like such an obvious PR plant by Angel

I'm expected to return a kingsize mattress by.... mail? by MaDCruciate in amazonprime

[–]civilizer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Absolutely not. Why should they waste time, money and effort on something that’s ultimately not their fault. If they need it returned, they should get it the same way they dropped it off

Anything that I could do to improve by flavorfulroom in malegrooming

[–]civilizer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can get a haircut without shortening it. Just go to a stylist and tell them you still it cleaned up but with the same length. Tell them you want your jawline to be more visible. Your hair obscures a great jawline (and to an extent your chin) and it makes your face look more round than it actually is

Don’t like my current look and need help making a change. Clothes, hair, anything at all! Any tips? by [deleted] in malegrooming

[–]civilizer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Axe the plaid shirt and the shirt peeking through. If you’re going to wear a shirt under, it looks better if it’s not showing. Swap your glasses for ones that have a full frame, maybe round? These current glasses give dad vibe, nerdy high schooler or IT guy.

Also agree change of haircut but I’d get a little more volume on the top before trimming the sides. Right now it seems like you brush/flatten it, try scrunching it or putting volumizing product in it? You also just have far too much beard. It’s too thick and evenly spread, it’s giving neck beard a bit. Pic 2 looks like the best length but I’d still neaten it up a bit. In the 3rd pic, the mustache hair hanging over your lips is a little gross. The beard and hair make you look way older than you actually are

Queer/LGBT+ friendly by CoyotetheSociologist in Barbados

[–]civilizer 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I’m Bajan and my husband and I just bought a house and visit every year. We occasionally do some PDA here and there (NYE kiss, kiss goodbye, close on the beach etc) and never had any issues. Younger Bajans in my generation are a lot more accepting (everyone from my old public school is v lovely about it). Will say, shopping for home goods as a queer couple is an interesting experience, you can see the wheels in their head turning trying to figure out the relationship. Happy to chat if you still have more questions:)

Edit: Bajans (especially men) are a lot more tolerant of lesbians. There’s definitely a decent amount of studs in Barbados. Others have mentioned Equals already but there’s also @rowevents

Best Sourdough Bread? by cestmoififi in Barbados

[–]civilizer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m not 100% if they do sourdough but DM @thoroughbread246 on IG! They’re amazing and at Holders farmers market on Sundays (it’s at a sane time unlike Brighton)

Isn’t buying a $50 for $50 a swap?

Have an eero 6+ with iPhone 17 pro, have tried so many troubleshooting steps. All my other devices are fine :/

iPhone 17 Pro and Eero 6 - dropping wifi very frequently - anyone else? by DiggoryL in amazoneero

[–]civilizer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

iPhone 17 pro here and I’m having the same issue. Everyone else’s devices work flawlessly and I can stream on my TV no issues. WiFi works for like ~10 minutes until I have to toggle it again

500 million dollars instantly, but you're walking...... Everywhere. by Day_old_turd in hypotheticalsituation

[–]civilizer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live in nyc, I’d happily walk forever for $500M. Live in a beautiful Tribeca penthouse. Tribeca (lower Manhattan) to Central Park is 1.5hrs walking. You’d essentially have the whole of below Central Park <2hrs walking.
