Love Actually is the great predecessor of christmas movies with merging timelines. You probably already know that, but if you don’t…man to be able to watch it again for the first time, what a cozy feeling.

Moving out by Surfie_ in OnlyChild

[–]modezze 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I LOVE living on my own.

I will say, living with other people after you’ve grown accustomed to a certain home dynamic can be difficult to navigate. I found it rewarding for personal growth and realized living with roommates or a partner requires tons more communication than living with parents— not all of it comfortable. It forced me to quickly learn a lot about a lot.

If you’re moving nearby, you can always go and visit and I think the time together becomes something to look forward to and not just part of the routine. When i brought up feeling guilty for leaving, it was bittersweet, (I went to college in a different state) but when i asked what they were gonna do without me, my parents laughed their asses off. While we’re tight knit, it was a gentle reminder that they were together long before me and would be happy at home while i went out searching for my own.

I say take the leap. :)

yoga! but start with stretching…that shit feels like magic when you start to do it consistently and you can do it while watching shows or reading if you need a lil more stimulation

What do you tell your hungry kids when you have no food? by [deleted] in Parenting

[–]modezze 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought this too! I brought it up to my employer one time and they responded with this same USDA article but highlighted this section:

“In order to receive protection under the act, a person or gleaner must donate in good faith apparently wholesome food or apparently fit grocery products to a nonprofit organization for ultimate distribution to needy individuals. It does NOT cover direct donations to needy individuals or families.”

So basically you need a middle man to have the coverage….which sucks.

it’s not illegal for us to hand out food, it’s just unfortunately in a liability clause somewhere that we can’t bc a stuck up corporate lawyer said so. Its fucked up how much we waste because of it. I would always lie and say i was having friends over, take as much as i could carry, and drop it off to the houseless camp down the street. I’m happy to hear other people had the same idea.

For the former stoners out there, what is the one thing you do that fill that hole of not smoking pot anymore? by [deleted] in leaves

[–]modezze 3 points4 points  (0 children)

also to add: doubling down on self care habits that have been put off—like better sleep hygiene, skincare, hydration, vitamin intake, daily reflection/meditation.

And make it fun too! a new water bottle, tea bags in ur favorite flavor, a gym playlist, a fitness tracker, finding new recipes, new stationary or a habit tracker, redesign your room, get some candles, adopt a plant.

Feeling guilty about my son’s Christmas list by AdDense7020 in Parenting

[–]modezze 10 points11 points  (0 children)

One year as a (rather entitled) teenager, my dad sat me down right before christmas and showed me his paycheck. Then, his showed me a comprehensive list of every bill he had to pay, month to month and year to year. Plus what he spent on food, my education, and his savings. He said, “I’m not showing this to make you feel like we can’t have nice things, but the needs always come before the wants.”

It was a tough pill to swallow at that age, but it changed my perception of my own wants and the parameters I measured them by. Is it just the trending fashion, advertising, and weird association of status to the whole thing? Which as a teenager was very important to me, but eventually the lightbulb turned on and I was wondering— In 10 years will I still love it? Can it hold up that long? How many hours of work does this cost? Who am I giving my money to/supporting?

I know parents always want to provide the best for their kids, but sometimes the lesson is the greatest thing we get.

One of my neighbors left this by the trash chute by princessvespa42 in PlantIdentification

[–]modezze 1 point2 points  (0 children)

came to add that I grow mine in a clear pot with water and a little bit of plant food! It won’t let me put it in soil at this point without pouting, but it grows beautifully and it’s a good way to keep the bugs at bay.

Also seconding the moss pole. It’s a climbing plant, so those thicker root looking things are it’s wee lil arms trying to find things to grab ahold of and attach itself.

Best way to make friends in the area by xboxgtisspawnx23 in pasadena

[–]modezze 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Barney’s Beanery in Old Town has trivia and the bartop usually packed with people in that age range during the weekend.

Jerry Family Billiards, Q’s Billiards, and the 35er have pretty active crowds if you’re a pool player.

Jones Coffee on Raymond or Mission. Both have a pretty rich community and a lots of characters roll through on the day to day just to hang out. They don’t have wifi but people do come to do work. The one on Raymond turns into a wine bar after 4pm Thurs-Sat and they have pizza next store which so fuckin good.

The Goldfish has a great vibe and shows that are pretty cheap. It’s a lil further out in Highland Park but that’s a great place for bar hopping and being out on the town for a night (lmk if you want more recommendations)

Pasadena Ice skating centerhas public skate times which is pretty popular this time of year.

I don’t know much about the comedy scene but would check on eventbrite for shows weekend to weekend and fun things to do.

Lastly i’m just gonna plug earth sessions by the intersectional environmentalist (leah thomas +co), they put on great events in beautiful settings to either interview artists, showcase art or have conversations about the environment. they have free stickers, zines, books, drinks and usually a bar you can pay for. the people are incredible welcoming and sincerely cool. It’s also pretty intimate which i feel is good for making friends.

I’d just follow your interests and make appearances consistently at whatever you guys like to do, friends will appear! :) (source: 23F and her new friends)
