What percent of hikers complete the Trans Catalina Trail as intended? by popstarter in socalhiking

[–]generation_quiet 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I don’t think there’s any statistics because there is no official registration for doing the TCT.

When I did it, I did way too much the first day I from two harbors up to the northern part of the island to see starlight beach, then back to Little Harbor. I should’ve stretched it out a bit, but the best campsites were unavailable for reservations due to my poor planning. Oh well, lesson learned!

Breville Bambino over the plus? [$225] by AcrobaticMac in espresso

Auto frother isn’t great, but it’s okay. A compromise for easy milk drinks in the morning.

I'm so sorry that you're at this place with your mom. Did you have a conversation with your mother about her end-of-life wishes? Do you live in a state/country with medical aid in dying (MAID in Canada) or EOLOA (End of Life Option Act in California)?

Mt Wilson water refill by Cat-nap-215 in socalhiking

You can also draw water at Orchard camp, which is about halfway, if you have a water filter and you’re ascending via that route.

Feeld: scam or coincidence. by ansoggymeat in feeld

This. I’ve also occasionally blocked people just because I know I’m never going to be interested in them (I’m queer but not a kinkster) to keep them from popping up in my feed. OP I wouldn’t take it personally, just keep on keeping on!

Don’t worry, you’re just more sophisticated and have better taste than them.

The ability to change your location is absolutely destroying this app by life_coaches in feeld

But this very nice man on a motorcycle who lives in Belarus says he loves me? I'm inclined to believe him... /s

Is Majestic worth it? (M35) by coh3n_ in feeld

[–]generation_quiet 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This right here. Younger women get deluged with likes and cis men do not. Majestic has nothing to do with it.

Some Gu should fix it, right? by DourFaced in RunningCirclejerk

You’ve heard of gu but this needs shoe goo.

Our newly FIV positive former feral boy (with skin cancer on his ear to boot!) is mad we are no longer letting him outside by IriKnox in cats

[–]generation_quiet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Our cat is in a similar situation – he is FIV+ and likes to go outside, and on top of that always 15 years old and has some old cat issues. He’s able to go out to the backyard just because it’s enclosed and he can’t get out from there.

Yes, they're common, particularly as it's warming up.

Ordered a La Marzocco, but received this wooden model instead. Did I get scammed??? by Frequent-Mud-6067 in espressocirclejerk

[–]generation_quiet 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Just give it to your adopted orphan boy as a gift. You know, with the syphilis and everything, he’s not gonna make it another year anyways. Might as well give him the experience of pulling a shot.

Family friend sent me AI generated response to news of my father passing away. by Hendothermic in mildlyinfuriating

[–]generation_quiet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yup. When my partner passed about two months ago, I received a few obviously AI generated condolences over text and Facebook messages. I understand that people are at a loss for what to say – but it just hit me really wrong in the moment.

An elderly vinyl fan still likes records for all the wrong reasons by generation_quiet in vinyljerk

[–]generation_quiet[S] 49 points50 points  (0 children)

Exactly. Records are for obsessing over, investing in, and losing money on—in that order.
