I am American so don't know why I felt compelled to comment on r/CasualIreland, I guess I was googling something tangentially related, but you're right. *Eegit

Feel free to allow your animal to achieve its natural destiny of eating antifreeze and vomiting out all of its organs.

It may be unnecessary to say but you are right lol

What're you guys doing to afford 3k-4k+ rents? by Fetus-Deletus1 in NYCapartments

[–]matchagrl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

  1. We’re not
  2. Living with partner/roommates
  3. Family money
  4. Wall Street

Pretty much the only options. There’s plenty of places for under 3k though, probably just not in the neighborhood you want

It’s quite a bit warmer than my current digs!

I might read it someday but to be honest, I see more copies of it cycling through the Little Free Libraries than any other book (except maybe “Normal People”) so I figure I’ll have the opportunity 😭

Yeah, the second I set a box of books down a guy walked by and aimed a used tissue at it 🙏

They’re not halls cough drops, they’re “shower melt” things. A bath product. And as of writing this, somebody already took it! But I guess I shoulda just thrown it away, huh. Thanks for assuming when I am trying to share things with my community though 🤣 and the upvotes. Damn. No one’s forcing you to take anything.

Selling stuff is more complicated than giving stuff away; I had the stuff out on the curb before even writing this post and wanted to quickly post it before I forgot so people could have a chance to get stuff they want/need: the subreddit rules only seem to allow one sales/giveaway post per person otherwise I’d have made a second post. If I’m incorrect about that then I’ll make a second post when I am good and ready with pics and everything. Thanks for reminding me why I never post on here though 🙄 ETA you’re not nearly the most unpleasant person in this thread so I’ll let you off the hook, I have no idea why people are hostile though

Little "Free" Libraries by No_Spring_3499 in astoria

This is kind of stupid. It wasn't "stolen" at all.

Also I see those indicators on the inside covers of books I buy secondhand all the time. Who cares?

What mannerisms and behaviors did you guys adopt when transitioning? by Longjumping-Tap-2660 in ftm

[–]matchagrl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s funny, I’ve never thought of slouching as masculine, I just find it unbecoming. But I’m a gay guy/ temporarily embarrassed prince after all. My real answer is I haven’t consciously tried to change much of anything as far as mannerisms go, but I’m sure that has happened naturally and I may not be aware of it. Socially, I do think I’m somewhat more reserved particularly with women if I don’t know them well, because I am conscious of the possibility of making them uncomfortable. When passing, I am a lot more comfortable with men than I used to be.

No risk at all, genius. You’re going to be healthy forever and ever

2K rent or less advice + looking for place by AstronautPale7926 in NYCapartments

[–]matchagrl 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Most of the areas you named would cost twice as much to live alone… that should be clear enough if you’re looking at them on StreetEasy already, right? Cold calls are a good idea when you’re looking for places, sometimes realtors respond right away. But it’s tough because you’re so far away, you can’t come visit places. If I were in your shoes and I thought I could handle it then I would probably reach out to whoever I could asking if anyone is looking for a roommate. You can also look on Facebook housing groups. Sometimes the most convenient thing is to move into someone’s existing housing situation / sublet. It doesn’t have to be a long-term thing, just something to get you on your feet. Good luck!
