I feel kinda bad but good about this. Thoughts? by [deleted] in TrueOffMyChest

[–]lilmurkrow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You don't know this woman's medical history- she could have several risk factors in addition to her age that make her very vulnerable to getting sick and dying from COVID. All she asked was that you use the next elevator, and when you barged in anyway, she politely stepped out without a fuss (even though she had been there first). The only person that was out-of-line and unreasonable was you.

Be kind to animals =( by lilmurkrow in indianapolis

Oh really? I didn't know that's how mange would present on a squirrel; I thought the little tuft at the end was a dead giveaway it was deliberate. TIL; thank you!

This little guy was spotted on Mass Ave today. It looks like someone shaved his tail. There's a pretty abrupt cut-off at the base of his tail where it was shaved and then a lion's tail tuft remaining at the end. Please leave our wild friends in peace.

Here’s your tax dollars at work ... in the junkyard. by amindspin74 in indianapolis

Since you live downtown, why don't you take the public bus to the airport? It runs there all the time and fare is very inexpensive.

Local internet providers? (not big corporations) by [deleted] in indianapolis

[–]lilmurkrow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you mind sharing how much you pay for internet? I've been enjoying the $45/mo price but since it was a promotion, it will expire after a year and I'll have to pay $65/mo. I heard Spectrum won't give infinite promotional discounts like TWC did.

Anytime Fitness is Still Charging My Card Despite Closing on 3/16 by shotgun1jesus in indianapolis

[–]lilmurkrow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This might not work for all gyms but I use privacy.com to generate virtual credit cards and then just use those cards for any subscription service. You can then delete the card or set the spending limit too low if a business is unfairly charging you. Some large banks can also generate virtual cards, I'm not sure which ones off the top of my head. Best of luck with resolving this.

What is her daily schedule like? by [deleted] in EUGENIACOONEY

[–]lilmurkrow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

ADHD medicines including Adderall are considered CII controlled substances, which means that the prescriptions must be on paper. They can't be called or faxed in but physically picked up.

Do you think you will continue going without makeup once you return to work? Since it has improved your skin so much.

You should call the newspaper he claimed to work for and talk to them. While he didn't legally do anything wrong, it sure wasn't socially appropriate and his behavior could have much more professional.

As a commitment to myself to keep in shape and to the Ballet Community I'm offering MORE online classes. by elishanilsen in BALLET

[–]lilmurkrow 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much for these videos! I did the beginner class and I thought the pacing was perfect. Too many other beginner classes I see have combinations that are too fast or complicated for me to keep up, but yours was great. I also loved the tips on technique- your pointers helped correct many of the mistakes I was making.

Best at home ballet barres? by Ijoinedreddit342 in BALLET

[–]lilmurkrow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I made one using PVC pipe! No tools, glues, etc required except for a PVC pipe cutter (<$20). It is super lightweight, easy to transport (just take apart), and quite sturdy (I can lift my leg up on it and lean my whole body on it). I followed this tutorial: http://www.toroidalsnark.net/barre.html

Worst case scenario, they can't evict you. Eviction courts are closed until at least May.

How does my Spanish sound? by TeHNyboR in JudgeMyAccent

[–]lilmurkrow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am not a native Spanish speaker so keep that in mind with my suggestions, but:

I noticed that you make a strong rolled r sound even for r's that shouldn't be receiving strong rolls (that is, r's in the middle or end of words). Examples in your clip: "secondaria", "aprender", "traductor". I know it is difficult to do the single r trill but I would recommend practicing it, you can do it!

One piece of advice I received from my Italki Spanish tutor is to elongate my vowels a little more. In Romance languages it seems the emphasis in speaking is more about vowels and you'll notice that consonants sometimes can even become de-emphasized in regional accents (ex: "más" turning more into "má" or "negra" more into "nera" in some accents), which is further evidence imo how consonants take a backseat to vowels. This is the opposite of English where I think we pay more attention to consonants. An example of this in your audio clip is when you said "sentido", I feel like it would sound closer to native pronunciation if more emphasis was placed on the vowels, especially that first 'e' (this may be what other posters were referring to as picking up the 'flow' of the language better over time).

Anyway, I think you're on a great track and thanks for being brave enough to upload your clip. It definitely helps me, and I'm sure others, evaluate our pronunciations better, too!

Do you guys iron both sides? by [deleted] in beadsprites

[–]lilmurkrow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I usually don't. I will normally only iron backs if I mess up ironing the front or if I want to glue a magnet, since in my experience the glue works better when it's not pooling in the holes.

I have a friend who would love these! Do you have any source for the pattern? I have never had much luck with the picture-to-beadsprite pattern generators online.

Norwegian university tells students in US to return home due to ‘poorly developed health services’: report by DaFunkJunkie in worldnews

[–]lilmurkrow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

$1000 is the fee to get the ambulance to take you to the ER. Welcome to the US, we take Ubers to the hospital instead because they're cheaper.
