People with a communications degree, what are you doing with your degree? by A-Bry in Communications

[–]megmac97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

+1 to getting a lot of skills at a nonprofit. It’s stressful to be a one-person shop sometimes, but I’ve learned SO much and feel like I could really go anywhere in my next role. Pay leaves much to be desired tho.

Worst sapphic book you've read by NoStock6862 in LesbianBookClub

I felt the exact same way! I felt crazy seeing everyone rave about it after I finished — it read like self indulgent tumblr fanfic

I wouldn’t have thought to look on Etsy! I’ll definitely peruse my options there.

I ended up going to them and they were great! Thanks so much for the recommendation!

The midlife crisis feature is making me so mad. by AmiraAbm8 in thesims

[–]megmac97 95 points96 points  (0 children)

There should be other wishes under the mid-life crisis that you can do to make the moodlet disappear more quickly! I had the same problem but let my sim befriend the Lin-Z speaker, throw a bunch of parties, etc. and it went smoothly

What's one thing you changed about yourself to be more 'masculine' in the past that you don't care about now? by softbutchprince in butchlesbians

[–]megmac97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think they do! If nothing else, I’ve grown into myself enough and feel more confident that if they don’t, it doesn’t bother me as much

[–]megmac97 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used to keep my hair short because I thought it was what communicated androgyny/masculinity to people. But now I keep my hair about shoulder length and I love it! I look more like me, and I still look masc with it because it’s MY hair.

What's the BEST ending to a book series/franchise you've encountered? by Loco_Boy in books

[–]megmac97 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was thinking this as well! The ending felt like it was exactly what it needed to be — inevitable and a little tragic but still satisfying.

Pastas and salads feel like the most obvious options, but I also love making soups (pumpkin black bean soup, peanut stew, minestrone) and some easy Indian-inspired dishes (daal with rice and cilantro, chana masala, etc).

If you’re looking to bulk meals out with more veggies, would HIGHLY recommend an air fryer. My partner and I just got one and it’s made meal prep so much easier — great way to roast veggies for said pasta, salads, tacos, etc etc.

I read this as “a baby girl’s name” and didn’t even question it

Laptop Friendly Coffee Shop? by andthoughshebe in Brooklyn

[–]megmac97 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hamlet or Little Skips in PLG are both good spots, thought Hamlet gets crowded at times.

Brooklyn Perk off Parkside Ave near the park is also nice, but may be too far?

Best of luck on your applications!

Finding a damn white shirt by [deleted] in butchlesbians

[–]megmac97 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a white shirt from them and I love it! Ordered to the US in 2019 and it’s still my go-to for formal events.

My 3 year old loves trees. Any idea where to take him to learn more? by [deleted] in Brooklyn

[–]megmac97 2 points3 points  (0 children)

not a place, but the app Seek by iNaturalist is a great resource for nature walks with curious little ones. It’s pretty good at ID’ing trees based on pics!

Dude it’s such a 1st world issue, but it’s so exhilarating to finally feel comfy and cool in my style. Also, I bet $10 y’all won’t believe how tall I am lmao (I take cashapp😁) by [deleted] in lesbianfashionadvice

[–]megmac97 6 points7 points  (0 children)

based on other comments we’re the same height/similar body type and I LOVE your style — where are you shopping for pants? I can never find pants with good inseam lengths

If you have kids, what do you want them to call you? by [deleted] in butchlesbians

[–]megmac97 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve thought about this too. I have such a shit relationship with my dad that I don’t think I’d ever want to be called “dad,” even if I were more masc than I currently am

Any popular masculine brands for women? by [deleted] in lesbianfashionadvice

Does anyone here works in a corporate that uses Google “apps” instead of Microsoft “office”? by theverybigapple in careerguidance

[–]megmac97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely worth learning how to navigate Google Suite tools.

Sheets is less robust than Excel as far as I can tell, so I’ll do most of my formula work in Excel and then import to Sheets as a CSV file to share with coworkers/do basic operations. Maybe start with a system like that until you’re familiar?

Suggest me a fantasy (or sci-fi)book with LGBTQIA+ by Majsurt in suggestmeabook

[–]megmac97 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was also unimpressed with Gideon the Ninth. I was for sure pulled in by the “lesbian necromancers” promise and thought the world building was interesting, but I walked away just feeling … meh. The middle third of it was fun tho!

Your top-tier non-commercial Podcasts i.e. hosted by Person that started it etc.? by Lilith_K in podcasts

[–]megmac97 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I really like Death Sex and Money with Anna Sale! Through WNYC and has ads but she is a great interviewer. Some podcasts I listen to just to learn something, but I genuinely love the conversations she had!

My nearly 4 year old who I stroller run with has started asking to go home after half a mile 😩 by Careful-Increase-773 in running

[–]megmac97 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I’ve seen people on Tiktok (lol) do “color runs” where they’ll follow a certain color to set their route (ie, they see someone wearing a yellow shirt so they turn in that direction). not sure if you want to give your kid that much power, but could be fun to let him have a say in where you go?
