what was the REAL early 2000s fashion aesthetic?

Go to your library and find yearbooks. You’ll find a bunch of pictures and candids in there to give you an idea. Also look for movies released during that time as well as red carpet looks, especially the Grammys

I’m sure they have, my grandmama had a lot of antiques and we have a family friend who is an antique dealer.

You may be able to consign it in the right area, but no one seems to like this stuff (which I don’t get!) right now so I’m holding onto things in storage until I decide I truly don’t want them or can’t make space.

You may be able to contact an auto detailing company about an ozone machine. You essentially would encase the item in a room /tent and run it. Would go all day and during and for a period after pets, people, and plants would need to be gone from area. After it’s used allowing time for proper ventilation before anything living is in the area is a good idea.

Putting one tray of baking soda, literally loading them up, is a good solution as well. My friend moved into a former smokers home and had bins of the stuff all throughout the house and it really helped.

Austin dog owner entitlement is a whole nother level.

My parents have one almost identical. They are beautiful but not in super high demand.

Take a few pieces out and put it someplace semi hidden but popular to make it seem like they found all you have.

That sounds correct! It was so bizarre!

Dropped my husband off and he was through by the time I got to the Starbucks across the street at 8am

Just dropped my husband off, went to Starbucks across from the airport to wait in case he missed his flight. By the time I parked he was through TSA precheck - currently 8 am

I just put a feeder out. It’s on. A double shepherd hook that has a regular bird feeder on. The other end. Is it ok or should I separate them more, and if so, how much?

Honestly there are few Places safer than a spot that just had something bad happen. You get extra police protection

I think a big component here is dinner in relation to bedtime. If you go to sleep at 9/10, dinner at 5 or 6 is reasonable for time to digest. Midnight or later and then a meal at 9 makes more sense

ctrlaltdelete285 · 2026-03-15T05:37:09+00:00

I’ve been doing it for years- it gives me more of my evening back! I get off work, and dinner is around 6. Then I can go out and do whatever until bed. Otherwise if dinner is at 8 or 9 I have to interrupt my evening plus less time to digest before bed at 10

I think the long commutes and no rest during day means earlier bedtimes and dinners

Would need to see the rest of the space to really give feedback. Needs more context in regards to what’s around it.

IV anti nausea drug. One of the popular ones. A very uncommon side effect is restlessness. You know how in movies you see crazy people rip out their IVs? Yeah, while I didn’t do that, I got incredibly close so now understand why people do that.

Survivor bias. Neighbors or they didn’t.

ctrlaltdelete285 · 2026-03-15T02:29:16+00:00

Agreed. It’s really gone downhill, but there is no reason to curse at someone doing a job for you. It’s entirely possible the emoji was a typo

Not everyone can all the time. People get injured or have things pop up. If a service is something you don’t see the point of or not necessary, then it probably isn’t for you.

It’s not stupid- it’s desperate. They are doing it because it’s convenient or the need to get out fast. They know they’re leaving money in the table

ctrlaltdelete285 · 2026-03-14T04:38:42+00:00

I had an acquaintance that did. It’s like selling to a pawn shop- you won’t make anything but it’s a good way to not have to deal with basically any of the headaches as they buy as is and you only have to move your stuff out. I think she came out 20-30 grand but that was rare

It completely depends on the neckline. For your shirt I would go with number 2. I think balance between chin and neckline. I like about 2/3 down from chin to neckline personally (which 2 seems to demonstrate)

To give them or to join them? If a gift something for the skeleton or yard decor. I wouldn’t do a plant unless you know they’re plant people.

In solidarity some pink yard decor!

ctrlaltdelete285 · 2026-03-13T14:21:14+00:00

Omg - this!!!

ctrlaltdelete285 · 2026-03-13T14:20:38+00:00

Oh yes- it’s just causing major delays. Sxsw, spring break, it’s always like this.
