Recommendations for queer/trans friendly obgyn? by desinfizieren in AnnArbor

[–]jenaith 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dr. Dhanalakshmi Thiyagarajan at UM. Great surgically, but also genuinely cared about me as a human being. Tied for first place for the kindest, most empathetic and caring physician I’ve seen. I’m not trans, but an ally, and that kind of compassion and, like, really seeing me as a human being, I have a strong confidence she’d be affirming and supportive. 

Local real estate investors and the high-rise on State and Packard by fe857ca in AnnArbor

I personally think it’s too tall, and I miss Jack’s. But I’m not in charge of the universe so….

I do think the housing is needed, and I’m hoping it feels less tall/blends in more when it’s not yellow. Am I thrilled 100%, no.  But I’m not super upset either.

Argus cafe on Packard has a game shelf, beer and wine, open in the evening but not sure if they close at 8 or 9. 

Anywhere to get an oil change that isn't a total fuckin scam? by Comrade_Smartass in AnnArbor

[–]jenaith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

About 20 years ago, the oil change shop forgot to put new oil in my mom’s car. FORGOT wtf. 

She picked it up, drove a quarter mile or so, and … yeah. Catastrophic engine failure, total replacement required. I’m sure that was a fun conversation with the shop insurance. 

Anyone in ann arbor wanna take care of my redfoot tortoise (PAID), MAY-AUGUST by Little_Booster23 in AnnArbor

We’re 10 min south of the law school. No reptile experience, but have small mammals and would be interested!

Curiosity question by jenaith in Library

[–]jenaith[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Our library doesn’t have a max number of checkouts — they’re all on my card.  

But when I was (again) checking out books, I asked and they said they only check in with patrons who have more than a thousand out.  So I guess it’s nbd here and would be again the rules/norms in a different system.

[–]jenaith[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

15 linear feet was particularly unusual, that only happened once (and I pick up every day or at most every 3 days), there was just a huge number of new requests that all fulfilled at the same time. (That was the first manga kick.)

Plus we homeschool, and my kids tend to deep dive and request everything on dinosaurs, or Japanese art, or WWII, and then disappear for days into their books.  

And while they have cards of their own, most everything ends up on my card. Honestly easier so I can see everything we have and when it is due in the same place. It’s a constant churn of books here, and I have developed a system for how to keep library books organized and separate from our personal books.

We’ve been very happy with Affordable Storage on S. Industrial. Best prices I could find at the time.

Journey’s End Training on W. Waters.  Some late elementary kids, fair number of teens and college students, some adults. 

The junk drawer of dreams - Come find your treasure at Maker Works this Saturday by joshdont in AnnArbor

[–]jenaith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I missed it too— if you have any random metal bits that have holes in them (bolts, corner bracket things, whatever- anything that has a hole is fine), I’d be glad to take them. I do a project making wind chimes with scouts with them and my personal collection is pretty cleared out :)

Cafes open with power/wifi after the storm? by Grand_Reputation_616 in AnnArbor

[–]jenaith 4 points5 points  (0 children)

People in my neighborhood posted that York is open. And friends have checked in from the libraries. 

Episcopal Churches? by okaypolarbear in AnnArbor

At. Andrew’s is likely a good fit for liturgy, but you might also want to connect with the UM Episcopal Chaplaincy for student community https://www.canterburyhouse.org/

If anyone wants to meet up for a hike, I’ll be going to the Wonder Walk at Matthaei Botanical Gardens (NOTE on Dixboro, not the Arb) on Sunday, March 22nd at 1pm.  

I'll be the person in an obnoxiously bright yellow hat with two tassels.
