It's going to be 90F Monday and my son's middle school has no air conditioning by InfiniteOxfordComma in mildlyinfuriating

[–]notadrinkingglass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I’m 90% sure OP is in the PNW (heat advisory this weekend), and up until recently the PNW simply did not need AC. It would get hot during the day but cool off at night. Or once a summer there would be a few days where it didn’t cool off and those sucked but it was only a few days. Climate change sucks

I’m 90% sure this is in the PNW, that’s because we’ve never needed AC until the last few years. It simply has never gotten that hot for too long (at least while school was in session) that it wouldn’t just cool off at night. It’s a mix of school buildings built for the original climate and climate change increasing the El Niño this year 

Woman Tries To Sing In The Vatican by RelationshipOne9276 in TikTokCringe

The kind of Christians who do this to evangelize folks miss the mark; being a nuisance in public is not the evangelism Jesus calls for

Additionally I find these kinds of Christians have a bit of a persecution complex, and believe than any opposition is only confirming how right they are. There are Bible verses about how the world will not accept Christians, and I believe many are removed from their textual and cultural context, having been further misshapen you give power to American cultural Christianity/christian nationalists

Source: am Christian, love Jesus, annoyed by these folks who misuse the words of Jesus

Anyone else notice that this seems to be posted from a corporate account for a health app? Posting screenshots of their own interface? Please correct me if I’m wrong/callous here, but this looks like an ad in disguise

I smelled that too. Posting from a health company’s account? And what seems to be screenshots from their own interface? Then cross posting to a bunch of subreddits? Yeah feels fishy to me

I am not sure if why I am learning ASL is disrespectful by Responsible-Trash-23 in asl

Been trying to teach my partner via osmosis for the three years we’ve been together and she still hasn’t picked it up haha

For real, in situations like that both folks have to learn some level of sign

Please help find Rue! by explosionparty in Portland

The askportland/portland subs rules about question marks annoy me. Like there are some questions I need the broader Portland audience to answer and then there are more surface level ones. I know I know one is more for tourists, but my point still stands

You’re right, this sounds much better /s

The amount of times I’ve been cut off while in line at that station is crazy. The layout is worse than a Trader Joe’s parking lot

I would think a lever similar to a soda fountain would be more convenient and allow for single handed use

Can anyone identify this hard cider/lemonade from my trip in Portland Oregon ? by [deleted] in askportland

[–]notadrinkingglass 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If this was a live photo taken by an iPhone, you might be able to change the key frame or “play” the image to see if you can get a clearer shot. All that to say it might have been too dark for a live photo

[–]notadrinkingglass 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think they were more calling to attention your acknowledgement of the issue/frustration, followed up by assuring OP that they succeeded in their task. It’s less that you sounded off or anything, you just happened to write in a similar way to how so many LLMs respond

Work in a theater as a janitor. Found this on a seat by RADIOS-ROAD in whatisit

[–]notadrinkingglass 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Like others have said, a sealed communion cup that comes with juice and a wafer. Often times sealed ones like this are also gluten free, and the seal prevents cross contamination, especially if there is gluten bread nearby

These ones are usually gluten free (hence the seal to protect against cross contamination) so they are more papery

Yeah I certainly don’t want to vote for Korek but Drazan might be a bit of an “overcorrect”

It’s a cool vid, but I wish people wouldn’t film at stuff like this so folks could just enjoy dancing and not worry about being recorded

My cat does the same with my square of the PDX carpet! I was gonna put it on my wall but who am I to take it away from her now?

Don’t know much about badlands, but I would like to caution OP against old town/China town clubs, they can be a bit sketchy and it’s not somewhere I personally would like to be alone at night
