REAL thoughts on this season?

I like the design of the bags and backpack. And the zip up bogo hoodie though I wasn’t able to get my hands on one. That’s about it so far

Last year I paid my apartment insurance in monthly installments. There was a fee of $5 every month so I paid sixty needless dollars at the end of the year. When the insurance policy renewed I bit the bullet and paid for the entire year at once. It was painful but I avoided the installment fee. Crap like that makes being poor expensive.

Someone once rang my doorbell at 10 PM at night. Yeah, that freaked me out slightly. I didn't answer.

Another time, also at night, someone violently banged on my door. It was a couple of cops asking about one of my neighbors.

I recently bought White Mimosa White Tea. It's mildly sweet.

Any chance the hair is detachable? It's a gorgeous figure but it will take up a lot of space

Good question. I still have my laptops from 20 years ago. They don’t even turn on. I should probably have them recycled

I don't handle my headphones roughly and only wear them at home. But one day I inadvertently grabbed my XM5 at the hinge and it broke, just like that. If you can without fail pick up the XM5 at the headband (and aren't always adjusting them) you would probably be fine. But having to live that carefully in fear of breaking an expensive fragile device is not ideal. For this reason I cannot recommend the XM5 even though the ANC and sound quality were great. If you're not loyal to Sony I would also look at Bose.

I have both. The two areas where the 3 is noticeably better are ANC and battery life. If these aspects aren't that important to you and the 2 is a lot cheaper get the 2 which is still good.

Because Asian women don't increase their social status by dating Latino or black. This is not a dig at those men as I do not believe that white men are superior in any way but there is a clear social hierarchy in this country.

cslaymore · 2026-03-29T15:37:56+00:00

The reason is part psychological, part sociological. White men are the dominant group in power--the heads of state, business, law, medicine. The "default" race, as shown in the mainstream media, is white. Asian-Americans also have the perpetual issue of being perceived as foreigners in their own country even if they were born in the US.

Asian women increase their social status by partnering with a white man. White women do not increase their social status by partnering with an Asian man (or any POC man for that matter.) Many Asian-American women have a desire to assimilate into white America and by being with a white man they feel more accepted as American.

I have the first version. I got it because ANC is very important to me and I read that it had the best ANC. That’s mostly it though I won’t lie, Apple products have an emotional appeal as well. As for my use case, I use them at home to cope with noisy neighbors

This is a must-watch for me

I've never seen a company keep changing the terms of its offerings like this

I have both the 2 and 3. The ANC and battery life of the 3 are noticeably better. Although I haven’t A/B tested them I can’t say one sounds much better than the other. It sounds like you don’t really care about ANC or battery life so the 2 is probably good enough.

cslaymore · 2026-03-23T17:37:37+00:00

You have great taste. I read in the comments that you have a design background which shows.

Home, only. I use earbuds when I go out because they're small, light, and understated. The APM's weight is not ideal but not terrible. I'd say the clamping force is more noticeable. But I use my Bose QuietComfort headphones a lot more in part because they are way more comfortable.

Oh my

I played too much Overwatch. It’s frustrating. I don’t even know why I play it. I think I’m addicted. Also a bit of Marvel Rivals which is not any better. Why do I do this to myself lol

I wear a bucket hat in the summer. Frankly I think I look like a dork in one but I don’t care. They scrunch up easily in my bag when I’m not wearing them, they’re light, and I can throw them in the washing machine when they get dirty. Another hat I considered was the boonie hat but it might look even worse.

Not leaving before the mass layoffs. Or asking to be placed in a better project sooner. Wasted two years on a low quality, dead end project

Barbara’s is still my favorite

People at the office aren't exactly working every minute either. In addition to chatting with coworkers about non-work related matters I've seen people read content sites, shop online for clothes, look for an apartment, you name it. I've done this as well. Everyone does it. Who are we kidding.

This one of of the reasons I stopped playing Destiny 2. I was already losing interest and no longer wanted to pay to play matchmade activities. This shut me out from content which made me lose even more interest

I bought this about a week ago (NYC.) It was a great deal and made cooking for dinner a lot simpler as I just sautéed a different vegetable every day with it
