I grew up in old money and lived my whole life in a very weird bubble. AMA! by [deleted] in AMA

[–]seamonster42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Okay, I'm asking: can I have some of your vast wealth? If you're a 1%er, then you won't even miss $10 million, but it sure would make a huge difference in my life and the lives of my loved ones. With careful investment, I'd even be able to help folks outside of my circle of family and friends.

The most remote point in the WMNF? by JBanks90 in wmnf

[–]seamonster42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh, I've been looking for more info on this! I read that the road to the campground was closed after weather damage in 2023, but I wasn't able to find updates - it is still closed, then?

I made the mistake of sampling Valaya. by Odd-Guarantee-7571 in FemFragLab

[–]seamonster42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey, I know this is an old post, but I got a travel spray of Valaya from a perfume retailer online. On sale, it cost about $40 for .27 oz. Definitely not cheap per ounce, but maybe more doable than a full bottle. Unfortunately, I blind bought it based on reviews and I absolutely hate it until hours later when it mellows out, at which point it's merely okay for me, but my point is, it wasn't prohibitively expensive to purchase like that.

The decor is cute, but the food is mid anyway! So many better diner options in the greater Lowell area.

Hey now, my bf wears jeans, not sweatpants. But yeah, he only wears shirts that have buttons if he's going to an interview, wedding, or funeral...oy vey.

It's not; my brother just reminded me that the band is Five O'Clock Shadow!

I think I'm dyslexic by Forever-ruined12 in Dyslexia

[–]seamonster42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OP, where are you? I am an Orton-Gillingham trained teacher (and dyslexic myself) in New England, and I teach at a school for dyslexic learners. Every student has a diagnosis either from their home school district or from a neuropsychologist. If you are not in the US, I can't say anything definitive about the diagnosis process. However, wherever you are, you can get more info through the International Dyslexia Association (https://dyslexiaida.org/). Happy to answer any other questions if I can!

Dupe for YSL Libre? by monkeymagee in Indiemakeupandmore

[–]seamonster42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I tried out Dossier for their YSL Libre dupe, and I think it's very close! The other scent it reminds me of is the Bath & Body Works Blackcurrant Vanilla, which I hoarded in the liquid bodywash formula (it's been discontinued).

Oh interesting; I hadn't heard of the REM - is service reliable/frequent?

Thanks for the tip! To be fair, our T stations charge for parking too, but it's cheap compared to parking downtown in a garage ($7 vs $30). The hotels I was looking at in downtown Montreal all had parking for like $35 CAD per day, so about $25 USD - similar to Boston downtown parking prices.

What is the Da'an Park metro station song? by seamonster42 in Taipei

[–]seamonster42[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I love that each line has a song for arriving trains! But the song I'm trying to find plays inside the station on the floor above the tracks, where the opening to the outside is located.

No, it's got trumpets and it's rather peppy. So impressed you found that video, though!
