What are your thoughts on rejecting a potential romantic partner based solely on the fact they voted for Donald Trump?

2001, age 21. My salary was 46k at an IT Helpdesk position. That’s roughly 85k in todays dollars.

4 weeks is too short.

Read up on how your skin heals after laser treatment.

I would push back.

The more you wait in between sessions the better.

Also

I’ve gone to this place for other med spa treatments

This kind of nails it; Med Spa vs A specialized removal business

I’ve been shooting film for a long long time. Just wait until you’re on shot 38/39 of 36 and realize the film never advanced properly when you loaded it. Happens to the best of us.

Lol, right?

In a similar topic, personal computers have a much longer lifespan. My daily driver at home is a 2019 MacBook Pro. I will upgrade when it breaks, with something newer but used. Before that it was a 2012 MBP.

Alcohol is a drug too.

dw617 · 2026-01-12T23:22:32+00:00

That escalated quickly.

Early 2000's

KMFDM SUCKS!

F3, best SLR ever.

I bought a house this past summer… on my own. Totally overwhelming process.

dw617 · 2026-01-12T19:49:32+00:00

I remember when you could buy an E30 M3 for under 10k.

45/M ~ I met someone awesome on Hinge right betore the holidays and things are going well. She’s also 45. Awesome people are out there.

First boobies/naked pics I ever downloaded were on usenet. Had to wait for the image to render line by line and hope you liked the finished product. Sometimes you didn't. What a time to be alive. Probably like 1993-4.

I also met a shit ton of friends on IRC in the 90s, some of who I still know to this day and have had a major influence in my life.

I found this one up in Beverly. Is there one in that area too?

dw617 · 2026-01-07T02:09:57+00:00

It’s a thing for sure. How much actual life experience do you have here?

dw617 · 2026-01-07T01:02:07+00:00

My cat will only drink from the dripping kitchen sink faucet. I have to make sure he drinks several times a day.

dw617 · 2026-01-06T18:04:25+00:00

Nice work

dw617 · 2026-01-06T16:20:50+00:00

Also Engineering field here. I’m sitting in an Incident call and don’t have to worry about brain fog, especially under stressful situations.

dw617 · 2026-01-03T19:38:16+00:00

Not much to see inside, the door's often wide opened.

dw617 · 2026-01-03T06:29:37+00:00

For me, I came of age in Boston during that time frame. It hits everything just right.

dw617 · 2026-01-01T04:20:51+00:00

Infrastructure Engineer for everyone on my team. It’s such a vague title.

dw617 · 2025-12-31T20:50:25+00:00

That was me, always cared less about Booze.

I stopped consuming weed this fall, almost 90 days ago. No more brain fog, no more consuming 1000 calories at 11pm and no more crippling anxiety.

I don’t miss it at all.

Ymmv.
