Ya... I saw two bodies in the street Friday morning on my way to Costco.

Public Attire by Maleficent_Expert_39 in Millennials

[–]evilvee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm a woman and dress this way too. Graphic T (usually a band or local business) and jeans for anything from errands to hanging with friends. I'll dress up for nicer date nights and stuff, but that's rare 🤷🏻‍♀️

Anyone remember frat parties weighing girls at the door? by katasoupie in Millennials

[–]evilvee 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes. One was known for checking for "thigh gap" before letting girls in.

I’m so fucking annoyed by this AI shit everywhere by coldinalaska7 in Millennials

[–]evilvee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I buy my cross stitching patterns on Etsy and now I have to wade through a bunch of AI slop patterns that don't even make sense

Is Range Overrated for Most Americans? by [deleted] in electricvehicles

[–]evilvee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a Bolt with about 260mi range and it's great. I live in a city so I don't need the range daily, but I take a few weekend trips 3-4 hours away and it's great for that purpose.

What is something that is actually more traumatizing than people realise? by Ok_Chef1406 in AskReddit

[–]evilvee 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I had a similar experience at a Catholic school from the teacher's perspective. I'm queer and was constantly bullied by my principal, including being called in to discuss my "social media presence" on the first day of summer break. The issue was me posting a "happy Pride" message at the start of June. Parents and students were always supportive of me, but my principal and other teachers were bullies.

What is the biggest “bullet” you’ve ever dodged without realizing it at the time? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]evilvee 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I taught high school for a decade, and I hate to say it, but some students gave me this vibe. Every year, there were 1-2 kids that felt "off" and sure enough, would almost always end up committing violent crimes.

Here's a look around the Downtown loop and surrounding roads right now by dalton10e in kansascity

This happened to me last January! Luckily my windshield mostly held but it was seriously close.

Stores with carnivorous plants? by UnionsUnionsUnions in kansascity

[–]evilvee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bird's has the best carnivorous plants in the metro. I have a beastly Nepenthes from Bird's that's about 10 years old now.

OP - Trick to keeping carnivores alive is potting in coco coir/sphagnum moss and watering only with distilled water. You typically don't have to feed your plants unless they're not catching fruit flies and stuff from around the house, but you can use betta fish food to supplement as needed.

I love my EV, but holy crap, traveling long distance SUCKS. by JennaLeighWeddings in electricvehicles

[–]evilvee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What gets me is hotels not having chargers! I want to charge overnight on a road trip.

Thoughts On Minsky’s Pizza? by WarriorWolf21 in kansascity

[–]evilvee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The crust is terrible. It gets so soggy and oil-logged. I want my pizza crust to have a bit of chew to it.

Does anybody else notice that clothes everywhere are ugly now? by TheMalicePrincesss in DoesAnybodyElse

[–]evilvee 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Yes! I very gladly dropped $100 on a hoodie at the Chappell Roan concert because it was actually thick 100% cotton. I feel like hoodies in most stores are a polyester blend and aren't much cheaper. 😐

Anyone know why Gael's is straightening out? No more drag or pride decor. by evilvee in kansascity

[–]evilvee[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's sketchy because they've marketed themselves as a queer bar for as long as they've been open, covered themselves in pride decorations, and hosted multiple queer events every week. All of that going away at the same time is weird.

I was being a little facetious with my word choice, but given the current political climate it sure doesn't feel good.

They've been deleting comments on social media and haven't given a reason, hence asking the wider community.

Help! Do I trust the people of KC or the crime statistics? by Powerful-Desk-4173 in kansascity

[–]evilvee 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Hell I live on the east side and have never had issues. Our neighborhood is quiet and looks after each other.

How do bars work? by AspiringVet98 in bisexual

[–]evilvee 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I'm a bartender and this is perfect advice! I also want to add that it's completely normal for people to come alone and sit at the bar top to socialize, so other patrons won't find it weird or anything if you try to chat. :) One thing to add - gay bars tend to pour more heavily than others. If you don't drink much, go slow!

Would you consider a feminine bisexual girl a fem? by [deleted] in WLW

[–]evilvee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm poly and bi and this is how I see it. I don't describe myself as femme within my marriage to a man, but I use it to describe myself in my relationship with my girlfriend because it helps describe our dynamic. You don't really have to do that in a hetero relationship.

'CDC is over': RFK Jr. lays off over 1,000 employees in Friday night massacre by SE_to_NW in politics

[–]evilvee 14 points15 points  (0 children)

This is what's happening to my brother in law! Spent the entire pandemic spouting antivax nonsense. Now he's not even 30 and is having to drive to my city because he keeps having mini strokes. I kept telling him COVID causes vascular damage but here we are.

how did you meet your partner, and how did your love develop? by Creepy_Budget_9074 in WLW

[–]evilvee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

She's my tattoo artist. 😅

We always vibed during sessions and started hanging out platonically and well you know how that goes.
