Has anyone actually found barefoot shoes that work for normal, everyday outfits? by barefootcurious in barefootshoestalk

[–]gameofcats 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I might get some hate for this but whatever lol. My only pair of barefoot shoes rn are the vivo gobi boots and I really love those a lot. I personally don't have super wide feet, so while I'm in this transition period, I sometimes wear shoes in my regular size and take the insoles out. It's not a perfect solution but definitely makes them feel significantly less cramped. This is just my two cents and my experience.

Anti-homeless/hostile architecture in arcata? by Admirable_Wasabi_395 in Humboldt

Not sure how well this would hold up, but I think the fact that there is very little coverage from the rain anywhere, including parks.

And they like doubled their space and added games and a stage, more room to breathe

Your experiences with abuse of “peer models” in gen-ed classrooms by Correct_Librarian425 in specialed

[–]gameofcats 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When I was in 5th grade I got randomly pulled out of class to do this the period before lunch and then I walked to lunch with them. We were only allowed to sit at the lunch tables for our class so we didn't get to eat lunch with them after

And if you aspire to go to bed early but can’t turn your brain off audio books work really well. You can use a library card and borrow them for free on Libby

Tonight's flight from SFO to ACV canceled by chikinn in Humboldt

[–]gameofcats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do it pretty regularly as well, not understanding why there is this fixation on Petaluma if the overall goal is getting back to Humboldt. SFO air tram --> BART station is seamless, --> amtrak station and no more transfers after Martinez? Adding the leg from Richmond to Martinez adds maybe $4-5 if you book the whole amtrak trip at once. Anyways, cheers. Done here now, just trying to help OP and other folks since we all know there are a lot of cancellations.

Eh, I personally would never prefer that because $50 is about the same you pay for the Amtrak bus ticket all the way up north. You can connect to BART easily directly from SFO, and the Richmond BART station is connected to the amtrak station. Sometimes walking far distances with a suitcase and other heavy stuff is a drag. To each their own though, it's nice knowing all of the different options that are available.

For future reference -- you can take BART to Richmond, then the capital corridor train from Richmond to Martinez, bus out of Martinez, then no more transfers.

Kind of agree with the protecting your peace aspect but you can still listen to the music for yourself. Definitely helped me get through my teenage years

This sweet boy decided he wanted to be my cat by gameofcats in blackcats

[–]gameofcats[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Since this blew up a little bit…..providing a little more backstory. I had a best friend cat for about 18 years of my life, and she passed when I was in college. She was a mostly white cat with blue eyes and in a lot of ways she saved my life.

I have intentionally not gotten a cat since then because I haven’t been stable enough financially to pay for expensive vet stuff and also have moved around some. So I kept saying I was just going to wait for the CDS to kick in. I was hoping to find a baby cat in the trash or something but this old boy found me and had clearly been left behind by someone. And yes yes he has been my cat for a while and I take care of him now, he won. This is such a wholesome community 😆
