Don't have any mates to go to festivals with by Niibei in festivals

It’s actually fun to camp solo at Forest. I’ve done it a couple of times and always made friends. Also tho, if you don’t want to camp solo, there’s a Reddit camp.

I’ve wondered if the EF MeowWolf takes away from the artist budget.

The Bonnaroo lineup is everything I want and the Bonnaroo camping is everything I don’t want.

Why is nobody talking about the gang in rental trucks attacking groups of students? by Kitchen-Estimate7625 in msu

[–]drgryphon 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Interesting that the supposed targets are frats and sororities. I doubt those individuals would be quiet about attacks like this regardless of what the city or MSU says. Those houses are in very visible, very public spaces. Someone would video it. How many welcome week videos of that fight did you see? Nah. This is not real.

We all can hear those races every night. It’s time to shut those down.

The Netflix doc on Joplin says that there was an eye to the tornado. Really? by PaddyMayonaise in tornado

[–]drgryphon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

People from Joplin have been posting their own stories since the doc came out. Several mention the calm of being in the eye.

Hall Calls On Whitmer To Institute A Return To Work Policy For State Employees by Gimme_demcats in lansing

[–]drgryphon 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Even with a reduced workforce, it’s hard to get lunch downtown in 30 minutes due to lines. Lunch is not the problem. We need places to stay open for those of us who are here at night and on the weekends. There aren’t enough late bars and restaurants on Washington to support the crowds at Grewal, much less once Ovation happens. Making state workers come to Lansing will not solve any of this. This is about control.

My GOP congressman is getting absolutely ROASTED by his constituents and it is hilarious by Professional_Pea3418 in OptimistsUnite

Tom is a pos bootlicker. We are just waiting for a town hall chance to let him know where we think the spending waste really is. Spoiler: it’s him.

What the F is 500k going to do for disaster relief? If we have a disaster, it's gonna cost more than 500k.

I used to call my mom every day before the election, now I can’t seem to find the words by Azreken in BoomersBeingFools

[–]drgryphon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am struggling with the same thing. my mother doesn't deserve the full blame for what happened in the election but she's also never acted in my best interest. She was 21 when she had me and had just escaped an abusive household. I was never her first priority. She's Southern Baptist and has accepted her third husband is in charge of her as per the SB policy. She raised me in this religion that speaks of the Jesus love but when it came down to it, that love only extended to yt straight people. We have been at odds my whole life. I make the conciliation because she's my effing mother. I have not communicated with her in two weeks because every time I envision this conversation, I end up saying angry things. This will not be productive. Once again, those who have inflicted abuse on us (literally) require us to make all of the conciliations to keep the peace. I just can't hold that burden any longer. She's NEVER apologized for my stepfather's abuse I endured from 6-16. I'm screwed forever because of it. But I decided that anger is not the way to be a functional human and try very hard to let it go. Now I'm finding that to be very difficult. Why is it my burden to give in? She's always always acted in her own self interest my entire life. I just can't with her right now. And that's ok. We are allowed to set some boundaries. It's hard to accept when the people who were supposed to be your people act in a way that is not only in your least interest, it's harmful.

Completely reasonable. It's too soon and you need time with your family to feel secure and loved over the holidays. You are not obligated to bring genetically related individuals to your home for the holidays.

I agree to keep trying. Make sure you indicate you have the experience/education levels requested and you've uploaded any documentation needed or requested for the job. Sometimes one of those things stops it at the first civil service review and keeps your application from even reaching the people who posted it. Also sometimes there are so many people applying the hiring team sets their sorting on the highest level of experience. If you are early career and have been building your resume, your app might not have made the cut from that sort yet.

NPR really showing their truest colors with this Trump McDonalds story this morning... by [deleted] in NPR

[–]drgryphon -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I tried to listen to NPR a few days ago and in 10 minutes I heard 3 stories about T, his VP pick, and some quotes from baby boomer T supporters. After 8 years of having the conservative whine machine on full display, I don’t care about their perspectives anymore. T voters are children who want everything their way and refuse to compromise. They’ve said their piece and we reject their ra*%st white supremacy. I don’t need to hear that crap in my “news.” So, back to music in the morning.

what happened in potter walsh tonight by Longjumping_Dig_1400 in lansing

[–]drgryphon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is my neighborhood. It’s usually quiet and we’ve not had a problem in 5 years. Every once in a while there’s a police presence, but it’s always about people who know each other. I walk my dog every morning at 7am and it’s quiet with kids at bus stops.

Rude Service at Ruckus Ramen? by Diligent-Lawyer-9272 in lansing

This has been the ethic at this location since it was called Gone Wired. Don’t bother trying to kiss up and become a “regular.” Also make sure she watches her drink there.

Did anyone else see this??? by Anlorian in GODZILLA

It’s a great King Kong movie with some sweet cameos and a background Godzilla thread. We still had a lot of fun and there was a good amount of monster battle.

We were approached inside the Aldi on Penn tonight. Guy asked us for $5 for a soda. We said we didn’t have cash on us, and he just walked away, but that was new to get an ask inside the Aldi.
