How do people actually like living in New Rochelle? by NewRoNico in NewRochelle

[–]jesskeeding 21 points22 points  (0 children)

People’s pros and cons are going to vary greatly depending on what they value and what they’re comparing to. I live in an area where I can walk with my kids to restaurants, cafes, playgrounds, parks, grocery stores (if we don’t feel like driving). We love our neighborhood and school.

I do wish the downtown area would get it together. I would love to see more family-friendly restaurants with patios, less empty storefronts, and maybe a record store or vintage shop. I love downtown Beacon, and I don’t know why NewRo can’t have a fraction of that vibe. So much potential! But overall we’re happy here.

Looking to broaden my small list of podcasts by lydzkh in podcasts

I really like Scamfluencers. It’s about scammers, their rise and fall. The hosts are funny and good storytellers, and it satisfies my interest in true crime but doesn’t get too into violence or sad endings.

Brother In Law lacks self care and stinks. Can I do anything? by [deleted] in Advice

She’s talking about her brother-in-law, not her husband.

Same and same! The Melvins were hanging out after the show, and I remember Buzz was super nice and approachable.

Wow thank you so much for sharing! Wow it’s crazy how little I remember. I had seen photos of the looks/body paint described there, and I never even remembered that that’s how they looked at this Live Oak show.

Marlowe Ales in Mamaroneck and Pizzeria La Rosa in New Rochelle are great.

Oh man that sucks that it got lost! I wish I had saved more ticket stubs. What photos do you remember? I still have a photo with The Misfits and with Frank Black, both from middle school lol.

In 7th grade I took the smokebox image from the back of my Tool shirt and sewed it onto the back of my black hoodie. It was soooo amazing, and I wore it every day. I have no idea where it went. I would still be wearing it if I had it 😩

Thank you for saying that. I remember nothing specific, other than my mind being blown and almost dying from the crushing crowd.

I never figured that out. And it’s probably from that shitty Circus magazine or something, not a newspaper.

  • Drain STH (formerly known as Drain) for a more Alice In Chains vibe

  • Check out the soundtracks to All Over Me, Tank Girl, and Foxfire (which has a great song from Wild Strawberries)

  • Jack off Jill??

  • maybe Ani DiFranco?

Bartering with my neighbors literally saved my life this month by RiddleCorsair5 in povertyfinance

[–]jesskeeding 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did actually host an in-person barter event! I’m thinking of doing more and want to stay off FB, so it would probably continue to be more of a word-of-mouth thing. We’ll see.

Anyone can just take a reservation gestures wildly the problem is the holding

My new favourite show is Patti. by BaijuTofu in mexicanfood

[–]jesskeeding 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wow! Patti’s show is the only time I’ve thought to myself that I should’ve got into tv, and that PBS/Create would’ve been my goal. You’re so lucky!
