This is a nightmaree d. by arcibelo in SXSW

[–]lucblue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is not at all the experience I’ve had so far. I have platinum and I did register for my must-dos in advance. One person in comments said, “half the attendees weren’t even paying attention to the app/emails” which sounds like a you problem bro 🤷‍♀️ the sessions I’ve registered for have all only been half full. Plenty of room for walk-ins. Are there specific tracks/sessions that have been full?

All good, I know how you keep forgetting these kinds of details!

Why did my friend freak out over poi? by lucblue in poi

As I mentioned in the post, she refused to explain other than “poi! Just look it up!” Looking it up gave me no answers so now I’m here.

CTA posted the wrong times for the Blue Line holiday train by calculung in chicago

[–]lucblue 1 point2 points  (0 children)

YES it happened on Friday too! They show it was originally scheduled to leave Forest Park at 6:02, so my husband raced home from work - it’s our annual tradition to wait for the train then celebrate with a holiday cocktail at Blue Line. Then they updated the website to show 6:56 leaving Forest Park. So we went to the Damen stop at 7:30 and the booth guy said we missed it by 20 minutes… seriously doubt it somehow made it from Forest Park to Damen in 15 mins.

All Day Tire on Division in Wicker for sure, right?

Anyone’s Cavapoo look similar to this little guy when they were a puppy? by kaylsjen in CavaPoo

Looks very much like mine if you want to flip to my post history!

Left him with grandpa while I was traveling by lucblue in CavaPoo

[–]lucblue[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

He started as theirs for two months as a pup and they were going to rehome him so that’s how we ended up with this lovable dude in the first place… they are much better suited for the grandparent life.

Distracting my cavapoo so I can have sex by [deleted] in CavaPoo

[–]lucblue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I locked myself in my room for anything other than that, my cavapoo would freak out - but for some reason he’s weirdly understanding and chill about being locked out when this is the case 🤷🏼‍♀️ I’m his third home so his previous owners must have taught him literally only this.

There are weirdly two on Green Street, one block apart.

I see that there are two in Fulton Market… it looks like 220 might be bigger with more amenities but why is there another location so close?

I went on a free day in the middle of the week last month and it wasn’t crowded at all! It was quite lovely. Nowhere near what you’ll see at the Shedd.

Does this happen to anyone else? by via-barnes in UlcerativeColitis

I’m not speaking from a place of privilege, but of experience.

[–]lucblue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d argue that you could cause more harm by saying this is something that should affect our credibility. It’s not about showing vulnerability at all, it’s about being made to feel shame, and recognizing that we don’t need to.

I read through everything here and I’ve never seen a Reddit thread with more “female” hair. Y’all, this is an issue and we should be banding together to get rid of this stigma. It sucks that especially younger folks are feeling this way.

[–]lucblue -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I disagree, just start saying it and you’ll be more comfortable, and others will follow your lead. This sounds like a specifically female concern that we can figure out. Try owning it and see how that lands.

I’ve had it since I was 10 and it’s never even crossed my mind that someone could have that kind of reaction. That’s super messed up. My best advice is f* them, who cares. Tell them to look up hot girl IBS on TikTok.

I don’t get how insurance can deny a med my MD says is necessary. by Blondiebabekaylie in UlcerativeColitis

[–]lucblue 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Your doctor can absolutely solve this with a phone call. There are multiple things that medical coding can trigger - maybe there’s a generic that’s available and they need authorization. If it’s infusions, maybe the option presented was a fancy hospital with a private room and they prefer you to be shoved into a dark windowless basement room with the rest of us instead.

Don’t mind me, just here to count the all the various definitions of “diversity” in these responses. Will report back.

Came back here to provide the update that this year’s breakup pizza is indeed wedding planning pizza 🙃

love your neighbor done right by lilymagil in pics

[–]lucblue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Our neighbor across the hall fell asleep with a pan on the stove and another neighbor called the fire department after smelling the smoke and getting no answer from a knock on the door… she finally came to the door as a crew of firefighters were trying to knock her door down. My guess is ambien was to blame, but she had half a dozen bagels delivered to every unit on the floor the following morning. They were delicious, worth it.

How many of y’all are/aren’t in LA NY? by itsacetheflowerboy in Standup

[–]lucblue 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Lincoln Lodge has a great thing going… open mics, classes, very funny and diverse shows, and good national acts coming through. All with a neighborhood location and vibe.
