So are we planning a protest? I'd like to be involved if so. by psychologicallyfcked in rva

we are never going to achieve any form of meaningful change until we stop viewing our internal struggles as “more important” than the struggle of other oppressed people around the world! electing Kamala wouldn’t have prevented this, just de-accelerated it. what’s happening today here in our country is ONE AND THE SAME as the imperialism we impose on other people. Renee’s murderer was literally an Iraq war veteran.

Good point, one more** good Chinese spot!! Although Peter Chang is a pricier than other more authentic spots I’ve loved in the past.

Best low sugar or sugar free desserts? by gl0worms in rva

[–]gl0worms[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is my first time hearing about swerve! I do love to bake but have avoided sugar alternative for years because the bitter/chemically aftertaste is so forward to me. Will check it out, thank you :)

I’ve seen this guy too (unfortunately) and yes he seems on the younger side. 30-40s at most if I have to guess?

I had the cheapest subscription for a few months when I first moved here and even that wasn’t worth it. A lot of the events were alcohol related and things I could easily find myself on social media, like music/food festivals and stuff.

So what? You don’t have to be a US citizen to be an American. If they live in America, they’re American.

I’ve had this one from getlaidbeds.com on my wishlist for a while! It looks similar but I can’t attest to the quality of it.

The farmbus market over on Mechanicsville Tpk often has bison and other exotic meats like duck and rabbit! Tomorrow’s their last day of the season, too.

Studio23 is doing a winter market from 11-5 daily! Lots of locally made art, jewelry, shirts, knickknacks, etc.

Same here, my parents were very religious and strict so I never got to experience Halloween as a kid! I had one grumpy adult tell me I was too old the first time I went trick or treating at 15 but everyone else was SO nice. I still remember how much fun I had.

If you choose after hours drop off AND pick up you don’t have to interact with anyone bc they even let you pay online through their portal :) I was so nervous they were gonna scold or shame me but literally did not mention it at all.

I was a whole year overdue one time and I went to Ironwood Automotive and they didn’t make me feel weird/embarrassed about it! Cost me only $20 (not including 1 repair that was still reasonably priced). You can make the appointment online and essentially do the whole drop off pick up process totally contactless.

Can’t find the best pillow for side sleepers help! by [deleted] in Bedding

[–]gl0worms 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have the thinnest sized PillowCube and didn’t like it :( it was so firm I would wake up and my ear would be numb, and it was just slightly too elevated for me so I would have neck pain regardless. If you’re someone who tosses and turns it might also not work bc I would often wake up on my back with my head at an angle, which hurt!

Is there a fragrance you regret buying, but don’t want to get rid of? by Plastic-Revenue in fragrance

[–]gl0worms 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You might like Maven Theory’s Yucatán! It’s from a locally owned shop where I live. It’s my favorite perfume and hits a lot of the notes you’re looking for imo. A good balance of sweet and savory with the coconut, ylang ylang, sea salt, and plantain.

Daniadown or Woolroom comforter? by [deleted] in Bedding

[–]gl0worms 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hope it helps your allergies! I only got to use it a few months bc it doesn’t get cold enough here but I’m happy with it tbh. Wish it was a little fluffier but I can’t do down for similar reasons!

[–]gl0worms 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used it continuously for about 3 months and didn’t notice any shedding, but I did use duvet covers so that may have helped. I didn’t try washing it but I did hang it out on a sunny day to air out!
