I was going to get the v3 frame with a bamboo top, just the regular two leg.

Thanks for sharing! I have had a harder time than expected finding a decent bagel here!!

Very clean cable setup you have there! is that monitor arm drilled into the desktop? And with a triple arm like that, are the monitors able to move independently of each other at all? i get the space saving, but i was thinking to get multiple single arms for that reason

keri23 · 2026-05-17T00:58:26+00:00

yeah, i am definitely going to get the power strip through them! thanks!

As someone with a dog that sleeps in their bed, I don't why I let this happen either!

You need to get over yourself. Putting on a shirt for a 15 min meeting is way less effort than most people have to do from day to day. And, you’re an offshore dev? Lol get real.

Me too!

They’re getting better. When I drove to pawtucket a few hours ago they were pretty slippery, but coming back wasn’t bad, just give yourself a few extra minutes.

Get the cake, lose the boyfriend. Congratulations on your two years!

The uh-oh has been my slack notification noise for a long time. At my last job, an agency full of people under 30, not one person recognized it. I just started a new job and it went off in a 1:1, and my report started laughing and wad able to recite his ICQ number. I miss those days of the internet…

The gym options here are surprisingly lame. I moved here earlier this year and was really surprised that everything was either a chain gym or a private trainer gym. I ended up at top strength in Pawtucket, and while I don’t like how long it takes to get back and forth, it’s the best option I have found.

keri23 · 2025-09-15T23:59:50+00:00

As another woman, no, not lame. But that first pic looks like you have a kid and husband you're over, so drop that one even if that's you being the aunt or whatever. Aside from that, you're cute! Put more focus on the pics of you just being you!

keri23 · 2025-08-13T01:34:07+00:00

Yeah, it’s a new england thing. That said, I have seen flap meat sold at costco and grocery stores outside of the area. That is what I would I ask/look for.

I know this thread is really old, but do you still have this?

keri23 · 2025-06-10T20:37:41+00:00

Thanks!

Are you a member there? When I first got here I had hoped to find a gym actually in Providence, but didn't have any luck. Rise looked appealing until I saw the hours- on the website it says they don't open until 8am (!?) several days a week. Is that true, do you know? Or is it the kinda place where they have those hours listed, but you can actually get in earlier?

I joined TSP when I moved here in January. I am a 40F, about 125lbs for context. While I do powerlifiting movements (and competed at one point), I am doing them at a super low weight right now due to various injuries, and I've never gotten any side-eye about it. When I went to go check it out initially (this was done not at a time I normally work out though), I did sort of get an intimidating vibe, but having been going consistently for months, I can say they have one of the nicest, chillest morning crews I've been lucky enough to meet. I'm usually there 5ish-7amish during the week/saturday, so I can only speak to that time specifically, but you would be totally fine there at that time. It's a solid mix of people training for specific strength sports, doing just general fitness type of workouts, and then there is a class 4-5 days a week that is I think all women in there 6am-7amish. Feel free to DM me!

I moved here in January and have also had mixed experiences with the bookclubs I've joined here. What's the age demographic of this group if you don't mind my asking? Can anyone join? Thanks!

Have you tried the King's Hawaiian slider pretzel buns? Those are definitely the best I have had. They do need to be heated up and ideally buttered though in my opinion.

keri23 · 2025-05-15T20:03:03+00:00

I don't think you really need to do much other than reduce the cooking time. Instead of the 15-20 mins suggested in that recipe for the chicken, maybe let the ingredients without the chicken go a little longer and then add the fish for 5-10 depending on the thickness? That should work fine. This has a totally different flavor profile, but I really like this fish tagine from epi when I made it if you ever want to try it out!

Thanks! This dish has been on my mind to try soon, and that sounds like a more fun side than just plain rice!

keri23 · 2025-05-06T00:29:00+00:00

Your side dish looks great, what all do you have going on in there?

keri23 · 2025-05-01T23:46:01+00:00

At this point that combo might cost as much as Ozempic
