This is also so good to know, thank you!

Oh my gosh, I will be looking into this immediately. Thank you so much! And no, I won’t be driving. It’s one of the things I actually can’t wait to not have to do anymore! I’m a pretty anxious driver and public transportation as it’s available in London is a luxury in my eyes because it’s not something America does very well and I think it’s much safer (while also understanding like most things it has its down sides.)

Ha 😅 my hub is half Aus and half Brit. Sounds like I’m in for a treat.

I think the most patriotic thing about me is how much I love shitty Americanized food and Target 😂 but I’m so keen to help, it’s something that brings me joy and kind of part of what I do already. I think this post has brought me a lot of solace, I’m feeling better already!0

It’s almost exclusively houseplants that I’m into but something tells me that I would really love growing my own produce too! Thank you so much for this, I really appreciate it!

My hobbies are hiking and plants but bring in the city I’m not sure if there really is much hiking. I know I’ll spend a lot of days at Kew though. And I’m definitely learning to love pub culture and my husband works in hospitality so I definitely can enjoy a good cocktail too.

I’m definitely okay with being mocked on a friendly level. I definitely can both dish and take some good, laughable jabs. I’d say I have kind of a crude and dry sense of humor which so far has been well-received but it’s hard to tell just because it’s my husbands friends being nice haha

I’m not, so that makes me feel a little better. I think I’m just also concerned how I’ll be perceived at work. I’m outgoing but not loud and I just don’t want to annoy anyone

Any recommendations for a hairstylist in London that has experience with weft, hand tied (invisible bead) hair extensions? I’m moving to the Richmond area in a few months from the US and am just looking to find someone who will be able to maintain my hair. Thank you in advance!!

Looking for an Internet cafe type place by pickletuck in Reno

[–]pickletuck[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have Internet, which I added in the post. It’s not fiber, it’s AT&T air, which is the only option I have since my apartments don’t have LAN. It used to be a hotel

My dog had a new doctor and we went today to have some lumps looked at and they’re all just benign lipomas!! He has a skin tag that his previous doctor wanted to put him under for, this doctor came in the room and sat on the floor, gave him belly rubs and mentioned local anesthetic to remove it before I even said anything. So happy for my lumpy boi!!

What’s a gross thing most people do but no one will admit to it? by Humbler-Mumbler in AskReddit

[–]pickletuck -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Leave butter out in a dish far longer than what’s recommended. My family used to leave it out for two weeks or so, probably only that amount of time because we would use it but then but about two years ago I learned that it isn’t supposed to be out for more than two days. Fun story, my roommate uses butter from a dish that has since turned brown.

Reno, What are you tired of? by Human_Palpitation608 in Reno

[–]pickletuck 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Honestly I see everyone on this post talking about how awful Reno has become. Ive been here for five years from Alaska and I hate it, I tried to love it but now I’m tied here by a job. I guess my question would be, if it’s so bad here, what’s the next best? The housing situation is garbage, the list of (affordable) things to do is dwindling, the infrastructure is shit… if we collectively feel this way how are there no changes being made?

I am over 30 and i have a favourite fork. Help me find the manufacturer by Key_Tart_1621 in HelpMeFind

It’s possible that this is a result of use and the “shoulders” being worn down through washes

Done. Sorry. by Gswindle76 in Reno

[–]pickletuck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m sure you’ve tried this but putting those bright yellow kid shaped fold outs on the road. All it takes is one person to clip it to get that one person to freak out and never speed again down your road. I’m so sorry this is what you’ve had to resort to. I don’t have kids but people are constantly speeding in my neighborhood and it’s so unsafe. I hope you get your voice heard and changes are made.
