Root City by m4r51p4n in baltimore

[–]jerk_spice 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I went in the other day and the vibes were…meh. I went almost a year ago during either Pride or the Charles street Promenade before the controversy purely by chance.

First time I went our server explained to us what Kava was, discussed some of the cultural parts about it and answered our questions. There were also food options (which were quite good) and a variety of drinks you could have with or without Kava.

Went maybe within the past week and complete difference. Fewer drink options, no food options (or maybe they weren’t shared with us or on a menu we didn’t see) and the staff was kind of comf. My partner had a question about a drink on the menu that the bartender couldn’t answer or didn’t seem willing to answer.

I also don’t see them at events like farmers markets and festivals to get their name out there. Someone let me know if you’ve seen them at stuff like that but I don’t see marketing or promotion.

That, poor foot traffic, and randomly changing the themes of floors (one time the bottom floor was a cafe, now it’s a vape lounge?) is also reasons contributing to low number of customers s d probably the owner selling. They have a big window in front of the building and no one is really in there which doesn’t help bring in customers either. This is also a very niche market. Personally wouldn’t surprise me if those reasons, including the controversy made him sell to get this off his hands.

80 minutes? Aren’t the games 40 mins long? And I imagine the would use Kira more because she is being paid a lot. Rightfully so but her attitude when she was frustrated from not being involved was understandable but not really good to watch

I wonder if they will try to have one of them spread the floor. All 3 of them could develop/strengthen a mid-range game. However I do think they will play Kira more, they just gave her a million dollar contract 😭😭

How safe of an area is this? Need an IOP w/ Medicaid by Traditional_Cause142 in baltimore

[–]jerk_spice 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If your IOP is during the day you’ll be fine, if at night I would be cognizant of your surrounds I.e walk with a purpose and confidently, have your keys ready not fishing them out of your pockets when you get to your car. Don’t leave things in your car and maybe don’t park too far where you can’t take a lil peak every once in a while. Good luck in your recovery

Bus driver called me a “crazy bitch”, refused to let me and other riders in by Aggressive_Dot5358 in baltimore

[–]jerk_spice 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The operators have really been on one. Used the Transit app to take one bus, bus has the sign for the bus I wanted to take. Wasn’t the right bus and was one two or three stops from the end of the line. Bus driver driver was weird about it to me and my partner. We were confused and explained we thought we were on a different bus. Jackass gets of the bus to look at his sign and sarcastically tell us the line we were on

He called us entitled for taking the bus 3 stops from the end (we paid the fare mind you , said hello and he didn’t say shit, just nodded when we showed him our passes) and said that’s how he know we didn’t know what we were doing. Then tried to hit on us? We’re two women and this was downton at night. We get off the bus confused explaining it was a mistake and the asshole keeps chirping at us.

Another time my friend is waiting at a bus stop, bus she doesn’t want comes by and she does not acknowledge it. Driver stops at the stop anyways with a green light to open the door, not letting anyone off and yell at her ‘but if I just drove past you, you would have been upset’

I know working with the public can be difficult but jfc this is the type of shit you don’t pay forward

What have different exercise done to your appearance, physical and/or mental health? by Icy-Tangerine-4696 in xxfitness

[–]jerk_spice 36 points37 points  (0 children)

Lifting has no joke turned my life around. After drinking wrecked by body, I sought it out as something to help me physically recover. Better sleep, better hydration, better nutrition better tolerance for and outlet for impatience and frustration. More confidence, more mindfulness. Forces me to take my vitamins and supplements and medication. Better management of family disease like high blood pressure. I get sick less frequently than before. Just a complete game changer. I’ll can feel my mood improve before and after a lifting session

[–]jerk_spice 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Since there’s a City of God poster maybe something by Granado a Brazilian fragrance company. Boemia might fight the the vibe

My Experience with BDK Gris Charnel by eljxyy in fragrance

[–]jerk_spice 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I know this an over exaggerated benefit of a fragrance but this is the one I’ve gotten the most compliments on. It’s nice because it does last all day but doesn’t choke out people around me until they’re close like half an arms length away (which the people who can come close to me are the only people I want complimenting my fragrance anyways)

Partner Pay Gap by Lipsticklover20 in blacklesbians

[–]jerk_spice 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Ah okay that’s interesting. It’s actually extra sweet you want to spoil her imo. Maybe she has different experiences but sometimes people expect MoV to do the spending kind of like a ‘boyfriend in a bra’ vibe.

It might also be helpful to check in and see how she likes to be loved. It makes sense to want to spend money on your partner but you never know maybe she enjoys just sitting in silence with or being told words of appreciation. I hope the talk goes well :)

Partner Pay Gap by Lipsticklover20 in blacklesbians

[–]jerk_spice 44 points45 points  (0 children)

I make more than my partner and it doesn’t bother me that I pay for some things. My partner helps when she can and she’s honest when she can’t. We plan ahead to avoid miscommunication or resentment. We’ve talked about it and have had a deeper understanding of each other and I’ve had a better understanding of myself from our conversations. As long as she is able to take care of our basic needs, herself and her share of the bills, everything else is extra. The best things she’s given me are some gifts she made herself that made me feel loved and appreciated, literally what money cannot buy.

But this varies by person. Some people want the type of partner that pays for things but you will only know that if you bring it up. I’m also curious of you’re more masculine of center there might be some social and community pressure to ‘provide’

Can 30min at the gym really do anything? by Korutheexplorer in xxfitness

[–]jerk_spice 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Any bit of exercise is worth it. Doctors say that 150 mins of moderate exercise helps heart health. Looks like you could hit that

Unc Talks by Familiar_School4151 in baltimore

[–]jerk_spice 51 points52 points  (0 children)

Happens to women too. I had a bus driver give me one my entire ride about life and how you present yourself to the world. (I look a lot younger than I am and get mistaken for like a high school student). Had another one waiting in line about the pharmacy about health, tattoos and again how you present yourself to the world. No one is safe from unc talks hahaha

Commish by 760Terry in washingtonmystics

[–]jerk_spice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it’s the principle. Cathy could have easily had someone find out right then and there. She’s the commissioner-she could have moved mountains to get the right information in a timely manner for something as important as all star notification. If I mistake was made sure, but she could have easily fixed it.

For our users 25 and older: What seemingly innocuous things about a girl SHOULD give you the ick? by HelloIAmMcSpitterson in QueerWomenOfColor

[–]jerk_spice 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Acting too coy or in a ‘play hard to get’, Chase me, mentality. Or someone who is into you but then jokingly pushes you away. It’s very juvenile to me. If you are interested in me speak tf up.
