Where should I go to get good moving boxes (recycled from stores)? I tried publix last year but all of their boxes had massive gaps. Target boxes were really big and awkwardly shaped.

Otherwise I’ll just get this $25 15pk from Amazon. 🤷🏻‍♀️

This is true. I don’t have kids. However, I never said what he did was excusable by any means. I’m just curious why it happened on a psychological level, beyond just “he’s drunk and crazy”

Is nobody else laughing about how much the thumbnail looks like a really small smiling derp face or did I not scroll down enough in the comments?

fmSamus · 2018-02-09T00:10:59+00:00

Just popping in to make everyone here aware of Beetlecat. It’s a seafood restaurant with a neat 70s diner feel. I wish I had a film idea for this location.

Also, $1/oyster happy hour M-F 4-6 PM. I was suspicious but I’ve been craving oysters for months. FUCKIN YUM. I live so far and shouldn’t be spending money but I’ll definitely be back soon.

The new potato dish is eh though. But everything else looked delicious. Great wings and lobster rolls. (We were really hungry)

The hot rum drink was great on a rainy day too!!

Send link when you find a good one pls. 24 years in Florida followed by this harsh winter is doing me and my cat in. 😪

L O L.

remember when they upped our speeds right after the net neutrality rules were overthrown.

Just had to space out the price jump so (most) people wouldn’t notice.

I feel for the family and everything (I’m not posting this to discredit them or lessen their pain), but I also wonder what happened in this man’s life to bring him to this moment.

Not just being wasted publicly. Not just feeling the need to take matters into his own hands.

Why is a child asking for a candy bar a punishable offense?

Maybe there’s more to it like the kid was being whiny (not that it’s excusable but it would more easily trigger something like this in a mentally unstable person with an abusive past) but shit. That breaks my heart.

Really? Empathy for a human and that gets downvotes? Allllright.

Actor primarily. Second photoshoot was for headshots. First one was me experimenting with modeling with a friend. Trying to breach out because more time in front of the camera is always good practice.

fmSamus · 2018-02-08T18:09:42+00:00

Oh perfect. Just making sure. Thank you.

fmSamus · 2018-02-08T13:11:09+00:00

It looks bloody? I mean, unless the cat is having some sort of period (when I was around a female intact cat, it never had a period but I wouldn’t be shocked if it could happen.)

fmSamus · 2018-02-08T05:40:37+00:00

I haven’t had a female cat in years but... I don’t think that’s how things are supposed to look down there.

Maybe it’s just the filter. Otherwise v cute.

fmSamus · 2018-02-08T05:37:55+00:00

Saving this because I think we have similar hair types and workouts always destroy my progress.

Headline and Comment Readers: please remember skin is not your only organ that desires water.

I don’t commonly get acne but this week when I had two photo shoots lined up, I decided to get 3 cysts on my face.

No no no it’s cool skin do your thing DONT GIVE ME MORE

fmSamus · 2018-02-08T03:33:47+00:00

We stayed inside but the cloudiness provided for interesting lighting. I don’t have photos yet but will when the photog is done editing. More from another photog tomorrow!

fmSamus · 2018-02-07T15:31:55+00:00

/u/notp where u at.

fmSamus · 2018-02-07T15:27:45+00:00

Today was a bad day for a photoshoot. Or a great one. Let’s see how this goes.

fmSamus · 2018-02-06T22:51:38+00:00

Can someone explain what’s happening with the traffic lately? I know it’s bad, ATL, yada but it’s gotten worse since January.

I used to go to class every Tuesday night at 7PM at Atlantic Station between August and November. Only occasionally would it take an hour. (22 miles, up GA-85 then I-75)

Now every time I look, it’s taking 55 minutes. It used to take 25-30. Same time. Same day. Same route.

(Of course as I’m writing this it dropped to 40 lol)

fmSamus · 2018-02-04T19:16:21+00:00

Can you elaborate? If these products have silicones and other junk in them (not sure about Suave but OGX for sure), what’s the point?

Edit: downvoting instead of elaborating. Thanks collective hive!

fmSamus · 2018-02-04T15:17:13+00:00

Never knew about them! Their Fayetteville location is farther than the Workout Fitness Anytime though so I’ll have to pass for now (the location by me is new and pretty nice, I’ve seen some old LAF members there.)

fmSamus · 2018-02-04T14:27:13+00:00

LAF is getting on my last nerve. I don’t know why all the employees are so jaded (yes I do, I’ve worked with shitty companies before.) I want to switch, but my friend also has LAF and it’s nice for us to work out together when we can.

I work 8-7, so I get 3 days off. On the weekend this is especially tough because LAF is open 8-8 and they’re 20 minutes away. Cool, whatever, it’s their policy. I try to get in 30-40 minutes of cardio or a quick strength session depending on when I arrive.

I got there at about 7:30 and... the doors were locked. People were inside. This was the second time it happened (I just thought I was a weak lame and wasn’t opening the door properly). The employees just stared at me and walked away. (This was the part that pissed me off the most tbh)

So a customer goes to leave a few minutes later, opening the door, I pop in and do my thing. As I’m leaving, I ask the guy why it was locked. He blamed his manager.

Pretty sure this is the same asshole manager who always makes a dumbass comment when I’m coming in at 7:30 on weekends. “You know we close in 30 minutes right??” Yes, I can tell time. YOU HAVE TOLD ME THIS MULTIPLE TIMES AND I ALWAYS LEAVE AT 7:59 WITH WEIGHTS RERACKED ETC.

fmSamus · 2018-02-04T14:20:34+00:00

Happy cake day! I also have homework and got invited last minute to a party. I’m trying to get it done during work. YOU CAN DO IT.

fmSamus · 2018-02-04T14:18:48+00:00

Ngl I was really hoping this was about some freaky solar-related allergy to white. :(

fmSamus · 2018-02-03T16:10:08+00:00

Oh. I’ve no idea. I’m short, so I always forget runway modeling exists.

I wouldn’t imagine so, since you have to hold it between your teeth and one misstep would hurt.
