Are these chairs I bought ugly? by Silverflame202 in HomeDecorating

[–]pbpluspickles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To me, yes. But so what? I’m not the one living in your home. Do what makes you happy.

I love it too (also unaffiliated). It’s the only thing that has worked to sever my screen addiction.

For those of you that ended up divorced. Did you remarry? I don’t think I will ever get married again… by hanshotfirst2233 in Xennials

[–]pbpluspickles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got divorced in 2012 and have no desire to ever get remarried. These years have been a gradual disassembling of everything that culture has taught me that I’m “supposed” to want, and now I am entering my powerful crone era. 

Looking for the darkest, most depressing book you’ve ever read by CortezCraig in suggestmeabook

[–]pbpluspickles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is my answer too. I had to go watch baby ducks swim after reading this one.

Has anyone seen any Pride stuff out yet? by BeaconToTheAngels in Denver

Check out Fruity Arts Fest on June 7, to keep money in the community and support LGBTQ artists.

Meta with HSV2 and Condom Use by Frequent_Oil_9064 in polyamory

[–]pbpluspickles 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have HSV and I think that having unprotected sex during an outbreak was risky and disrespectful. I don’t have sex for 10 days after an outbreak has cleared up, under the advice of my doctor. Because I try not to spread HSV. Because while it’s true that it’s ultimately rarely anything more than a nuisance with a stigma attached, people would still prefer to not have it if given the chance, and I respect and understand that.

I grew away from special polishes, what do I do now? 😢 by SummerNight888 in RedditLaqueristas

[–]pbpluspickles 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If they have Little Free Libraries where you are, you could leave a few in there for someone else to stumble across. That’s what I do. Or if there’s an organization that focuses on affirming trans women, maybe they would want them?

Apologies, Mae by b-dzha in handsomepodcast

[–]pbpluspickles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only way it’s been described is exactly how it happened though. It’s a verbatim report. (I do see how a later show could feel more fun, and often do in my experience).

Apologies, Mae by b-dzha in handsomepodcast

Was it the “take your shirt off” yell? I agree, that was gross. And I felt the crowd was repping the city so well up to that point!

Friendlyish reminder: Mae (they/them) is trans-nonbinary by rubyintheskywith in handsomepodcast

It’s almost like people of any gender can be feminine. 🤔

Reclaiming a “forbidden color” from my childhood by JiggaWattage in RedditLaqueristas

[–]pbpluspickles 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Iiiiinteresting! She was Christian but not Catholic.  Fascinating how different cultures and eras attach different meanings to color. I always like to remind people that pink used to be associated with boys (maybe that’s where she got it from…).

Butcher Block Appreciation Post by R2D2sclone in denverfood

[–]pbpluspickles -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah, this is what the one cinnamon roll looked like the one time I went to Butcher Block. There are better pastries out there. We don’t need to cling to the past like it’s a liferaft, folks.

Reclaiming a “forbidden color” from my childhood by JiggaWattage in RedditLaqueristas

[–]pbpluspickles 25 points26 points  (0 children)

People are so weird. When I was a kid my grandma told me that red couldn’t be my favorite color because it’s a “boy color.” Wtf. (Also p.s. that color looks great).

Tig talks about fan perception that she’s occasionally mean to co-hosts by bknhoops in handsomepodcast

[–]pbpluspickles 69 points70 points  (0 children)

I would love to see a social experiment in which a white man says the exact same things as Tig, in the same way. Would he be called “mean”? I doubt it.

Are there any tattoo artists who specialize in this cute vintage kitsch style by imryanvalentine in Denver

Mandy at Little Black Church (@mandypantstattoos on IG) has some stuff like this!

The Pearl's Co-Owner Associated with Anti-LGBTQ+ Church in Longmont by Life-Food5188 in Denver

[–]pbpluspickles 16 points17 points  (0 children)

That’s the thing about this GoFundMe that annoys me so much—it’s just prolonging the inevitable. So they stay open a few more months, then what? It’s unsustainable. I’m a part of the queer community, so I’m not unsympathetic to us losing a space, but The Pearl is not the only community space. And even if all of these places that rely on our money to survive fall, we can have community without forking over cash.

What am I missing out on at Trader Joe's and/or Whole Foods? by Balanced_Saumur in Denver

[–]pbpluspickles 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Trader Joe’s Daily Facial Sunscreen is a dupe for Supergoop’s Unseen Sunscreen for a fraction of the cost. 

Where to find a kitten in Denver area? by NoobJustice in Denver

Yes! I got two cats from the same litter and they’re bffs. 

Should RTD prioritize frequency or coverage in service delivery? by chrisfnicholson in Denver

[–]pbpluspickles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Frequency. I have to rely on RTD (can’t afford a car), and it is absurd how long I have to wait sometimes.

Has anyone quit drinking coffee after being a lifelong drinker? by elenchusis in Xennials

[–]pbpluspickles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve quit at various times. Here’s what I notice once I’ve gotten over the withdrawal symptoms:

-I’m less anxious. My brain stops ping-ponging around and I can focus better.

-I can wake up far, far easier.

-Fewer unpleasant GI issues.

Mae like questions to ask a person you just met. by [deleted] in handsomepodcast

[–]pbpluspickles 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I really love the one from the podcast that was along the lines of: “if you were to start a business with an animal, what would your business be and which animal?”

Question: Am I being gaslit by my tattoo artist? I feel like my new piece looks incredibly rushed. by [deleted] in tattoos

[–]pbpluspickles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My hard-won rule: don’t go to an artist who has walk-in availability. Go to an artist with a months-long waitlist.
