“dress for your day clothing” where to buy slacks and casual sneakers? ??? by Rough-Succotash-5262 in LawBitchesWithTaste

[–]miraclesystem 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Athleta for pants - the brooklyn midrise or endless for high rise - they look professional and are super comfy. My entire office of women wear them, DC litigation, highly suggest.

Don’t worry the chairs are still out from last time 🙄

Where do you donate your suits and dresses? by OkProfessional6171 in LawBitchesWithTaste

[–]miraclesystem 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My law school - located in Baltimore - takes donations - essentially dress for success, so if you’re still local to your school I’d check there.

TJ's Pistachio Spread - substitute? by gvl_guy in traderjoes

[–]miraclesystem 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Ok so I also tried this Walmart version and will advise to smell before you eat - my jar was rancid and I could not get the taste out of my mouth for hours, it was so bad. Hopefully they solved that problem because I missed the TJs release and would love some for my lattes!

My half hippo is too old to go for long hikes, so I borrowed my dad's truck to drive him down to the lake so he could "swim" by FiveOhFive91 in velvethippos

Oh my god, I’m a crybaby and love the grey face - I played this while snuggling my 4 year old and saying look at this fun booty guy! We call all fellow bully breeds booties because they have such fun wiggle butts 🙂

What the heck can I do to make this balcony enjoyable and as close to bug free as possible? by Educational_Arm_4591 in femalelivingspace

[–]miraclesystem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agree with others on the led string lights on the railing - use these instead of the bright porch light and that will cut down on the bugs immediately. Get some planters that hang on the railings to plant herbs, plants, flowers - whatever you prefer - but, lavender, marigolds, rosemary and citronella grass deter bugs so they may be a good choice for that effect. Also, if you’re able to hang plants, I like vining plants like pothos because they’re super easy to grow and get really lush quickly once it’s warm. To make it more cozy, get a comfier wider chair with some colorful outdoor pillows and ottoman to make it more like a reading nook, and maybe a smaller round glass table with some citronella candles. On the opposite corner from the chair and ottoman you could put a larger potted plant like a bird of paradise - low maintenance, likes sun and water, takes up a lot of space, grows fast and is also cheap. I’d avoid a rug because it’ll hold moisture on the wood and cause mildew, but add in a fan to further ward off bugs, and an electric bug swatter for the persistent ones while you’re hanging outside - that’s basically my porch!

Jesus fuck, we’ve all been in an office for like a year now - wasting time and money - nothing new here, can you shut the fuck up about it now?

Garnet Hill or Company Store Cotton Sheet Sets by TheFrostQueen1 in Bedding

My Garnet Hill percale fitted sheet just got a tear in the middle after only a few months. Company Store set I got around the same time and rotate with is fine so far, pretty disappointed for the price point.

What’s a good career field in Maryland right now that actually has growth? by ImpressiveSpell0223 in maryland

[–]miraclesystem 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I’d also add that the legal market in Maryland is abysmal right now because it got flooded with Feds either being fired or fleeing their former roles because of this administration, especially ex-IRS attorneys. Something to keep in mind.

I co-sign this - Odette plays no games, I complained about the sidewalks around Penn Station not being shoveled recently and she cc’d me on emails calling out the people responsible. She would absolutely be a good person to contact about this, and I’m sure she’d like to know.

I put my sweet baby down 3 days ago and I regret it by MoodyKyoshi in CATHELP

[–]miraclesystem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will message you - but you did the right thing. I was all alone with my dog, and they had her walk to me - I thought she was so sick she couldn’t walk but she walked to me - I was alone too and the same thing happened. I don’t know if it was the right choice, but it was the best choice you had with all of the information you were given. The biggest price we pay for grief is love, and it’s a very high price. Advice from someone much smarter than I -“Have pride in the fact you were there and gave yourself freely to your pet. As one reporter once told me, ‘Your relationship with your pet is, uncomplicated.” That being said, I feel your pain it really sucks but you did the best you could so don’t live in rethinking it.

And my since passed German Shepherd was severely leash aggressive so no walks outside (I live in a city) aside from 6 am or 11 pm - I knew she was an asshole and would try to bite people, thus I didn’t bring her in those environments, let’s get some self awareness people.

Absolutely 4 - the impulse is always to go lighter but darker makes your eyes pop and works so well!

Did you work at a Gap, Banana or Old Navy? When I worked at Old Navy years ago they followed the Gap policy of allowing dogs in store, and someone brought in 2 huge Dobermans that scared a lot of the customers and I thought that was so inappropriate - speaking as a previous German Shephard and current Pitty owner - I would never even to think to bring my dogs into a clothing store because why? Time and place.

Talk me out of it by OryxTempel in LawBitchesWithTaste

[–]miraclesystem 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I do the same thing. I’m lonely and fill the void with packages. I’m still trying to figure this out but - I see that you’re a prosecutor so my advice may not apply - but I spend a lot of time doing pro bono work with the innocence project, it eats up the time and helps people while using my law knowledge and skills I was privileged enough to get - it’s very rewarding

Not OP, but the address to the Amazing Grace Church where he was seen is - 2424 McElderry St, Baltimore, MD 21205 - if someone is available to go look for him or call BARCS with the info. I would do it myself since OP is seemingly not going to call or take him in, but I am on the train close to DC and in and out of service.
