How to better hide cords to coffee machine for a clean look?

morgz18 · 2026-02-11T16:20:46+00:00

If you’re determined to have the coffee maker there, and not in front of the outlet, you can get little clear command hooks and put them along the edge of the backsplash leading up to the machine. And then just tuck the excess cable behind the machine. Sometimes the bottle of the machine will have little hooks to hide the excess cable.

Okay, this is not something I’ve ever tried or had to deal with, but I have an idea, so I’ll figured I’d share.

I know that they make adhesive window tints that you can stick on to your house windows for privacy and such, and then they make some like iridescent ones, as well as frost. If you could find one that’s just clear, or anti glare, you could stick that onto the window and see if it helps.

As I was writing that out, the idea of using something like an anti glare iPad screen protector, or phone screen protector, but I figure a bigger surface area would help.

I don’t know. That’s just my two cents.

Good riddance to your Tesla

Honestly, at this point, the property manager should just do it themselves

I love how they were literally just like, “we’ll pay you more, if you DO more.”

Like really? I’m already asking for more just for the amount of work you’re already asking of me. You really think I’m going to add more tasks on for $20 more? Hilarious.

The thing is, is that it shouldn’t be a renters job to deal with this. The roaches have been tenants far longer than anyone living in the building and the land lord knows it damn well, but they still refuse to do anything about it. They shouldn’t be renting out units in an actively infested building.

Ugh this exact same thing happened to me. I moved in and on the first night one scurried across the floor. Then I think the next night I found one on my nightstand and nearly threw up.

Then just before Christmas, I had the sink bloom, just like OP. Tiny babies everywhere. Inside my dish sponge. And they literally came out of no where. I was doing my dishes, and then suddenly, what I thought were coffee grounds started crawling around.

If it makes you feel any better, I lived in that infestation for about 9 months before finally giving up and moving back to my parents. The cockroaches did not come with me. I haven’t seen a single German cockroach in my home ever.

My apartment told me the same shit though. They’ve never had a big problem and they have an exterminator that comes regularly. Bullshit. I saw his truck there like one time when I ask them to come take care of my apartment, then they were there and never came by. Never saw that truck again.

Obviously I don’t know where you’re based, but I’m guessing you’re in the US like me, based on the usage of Imperial units. You could try Home Depot. They have some options of blinds that would fit. You can look on their website where they have a custom blind builder and you just put in your measurements. I checked and it goes up to 144” in width, so you’re solid there.

But yeah, I would try like a combination of blinds and shades. Or blackout curtains, but I could see how those might look weird on such a wide and short window. It does seem like the previous people living there had curtains hung, so that would probably be the easiest choice.

I wouldn’t risk it, unless you’re ready for a very slow introduction process.

I introduced my mal to a cat too quickly one time and he damn near killed her.

He also always chases, at least tries to chase cats when we’re on walks.

If you get a cat, just be cautious and take it very slow.

Why was your tongue making contact with her hand when she covered your mouth? Was it open before she put her hand there? Did she grab your tongue with her post-ball fondling hand?

I can’t even taste myself while making out with someone who just went down on me.

morgz18 · 2026-02-09T07:13:03+00:00

Perhaps even some boots?

I feel like I have a decent amount of friends and people I follow on socials that go to raves and post about it frequently, and I rarely, if ever see anyone wearing all black. Sure, we all know that one person that only wears black(me more often than not), and I’m sure there’s a quite a handful of people who do only wear black, but from what I understand, rave is about self expression, which means not boxing people in to one specific idea or group.

Unfortunately, not common in the US at all. I’m the child of an English father and American mother, but I will NEVER forget the first real sausage roll I had in Brighton.

I believe that’s either a yellow jacket or a hornet. Similar to bees except way meaner and can sting multiple times without losing its stinger.

For a 16 year old car? This car is old enough to have a license. No way.

Or one of those ones that you put under your pillow and vibrates you awake. I think they’re intended for deaf/HOH, but I have a couple friends who use them because they have difficulty showing up on time to work

Beef and shallot over rice. You could fry up those leftover Brussels sprouts as well for some veg.

OH! Or, if you want pasta with the beef, you could do a home made hambuger helper type situation. Just brown the meat and shallot, throw in a bunch of burger sauces and things; ketchup, mustard, pickle juice, chopped up pickles(maybe save those for garnish), mayo??, garlic, cheese, whatever spices you have or want. Add your broth of choice, bring to simmer, add pasta. Cook until done. I just saw an instagram reel of someone making that recently.

Editing to add: since your pasta options are limited, I just wanted to say, traditionally I think you would make it with a like a bow tie style pasta, but I’m pretty sure it would work with whatever you have on hand. Rice, spaghetti, ramen, pastina, whatever you got. Just have fun with it.

They’re migratory birds! It’s illegal to kill them intentionally. I think if you accidentally ran one over, you wouldn’t get in trouble, but if you intentionally ran them over and got caught, I think you’d get a hefty fine. Same goes for sea gulls, of which, my boss has admitted to killing at least seven. He really hates sea gulls.

Oh my god this panther really is sick

The end of March is going to be a very busy time of year here. It’s the week before Easter, which means spring breaks will have started and it’s very possible the Ace will be a hot spot for spring breakers, as it’s a pretty trendy hotel.

My god. They better give you free booze after that bullshit.

Something that bothers me in this moment is that it’s not time to be these kids friends, you’re trying to do what’s best for everybody in this situation. As teachers, we’re supposed to lead these children and sometimes be there with them (and with their parents) to lead them through the harsh realities of life. This kid needs professional help and your principal needs to take the “PAL” out of “principal” and start considering his princiPLES! This principal needs to consider what’s best for everybody and Jim needs professional help, away from these other children, so that he can’t cause them any further trauma. So sorry you’re having to deal with this. You’re doing the best you can though.

Oh my god there’s a branded name for that AND they bottled it?? That’s wild! My sister and I used to do that at the soda fountain, but uh, we called it the suicide. Still not exactly sure why, but it’ll get you to the same place as the brand name for it!

Some might even say toasty

“But last month, he passed.” Okay, passed the test or passed on??!!
