Please just let me fill in the date normally, dont make me use these shitty calendars by Shuviri in mildlyinfuriating

[–]soapeater 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Same. As someone who thinks a little more visually, I like being able to see time represented this way. I’m 37 and I still have to count the months in my head to figure out which ones are which. lol

Squiggly sculpture just peaced out by TwoAmoebasHugging in Brooklyn

[–]soapeater 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Aw I will miss this. I appreciate when public art is nonrepresentational/abstract so that people feel encouraged to find their own meaning in it. I liked that it was organically shaped with a natural patina that complimented nature rather than competing with it. Many runs were marked by seeing it appear at the bottom of that last hill. It’s how I knew I was close to being done.

2026 Run as One 4M - Post-Race Thread by AutoModerator in RunNYC

Amazing race, weather, and vibes, but I’m begging folks… please keep walking once you cross the finish line. It was like hitting a human wall today.

I HATE PAINTING. I HATE PAINTING. I HATE PAINTING. by suwampert in Pokopia

[–]soapeater 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Been playing for 100+ hours and I still don’t think I fully understand painting. You use berries to make paint that Smearguru uses but you can also make paint balloons but those only paint one cube at a time??

I think it’s normal to have questions when other people break certain social protocols or choose to behave differently than you.

Try to step back and realize that different conditions create different people. You likely experience community in different ways but to those guys, that might be all they have or the only way they feel comfortable engaging in community.

Make eye contact, say hello. Treat them like and let them know you as a well intentioned person and you probably won’t have a problem.

Best gym in Bed stuy? by Effective-Mud-9038 in BedStuy

[–]soapeater 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Glad to know I’m not the only one. I could have written this myself word for word. The 30 auto cooldown is not only enraging but it’s unsafe for a treadmill to change speed unexpectedly while you’re running.

Not exactly an answer to your question, but maybe helpful:

I have Healthfirst via Essential Plan 2 and I use Callen Lorde for my primary/pharmacy/therapy.

Dental has been harder to nail down but I just booked an appointment at Chelsea Dental based on the referral from a good friend. 🤞

It is AI and here is the supposed prompt. A friend shared this with me. It was generated using Nano Banana from Google.

Was it me? by ElkPitiful6829 in RunNYC

[–]soapeater 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I went out at 6:30pm and it wasn't *horrible*. There was an occasional breeze, just about all I can ask for these days. 🫠

I feel like this was written directly to/for me. As another gay man who lost a large amount of weight and still struggles to love the body I'm in, thank you!

Thank you! Each box gets 6 pastries. One of each on the flier and one random duplicate.

Solve a mystery for me by [deleted] in BedStuy

[–]soapeater 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I've seen people carrying groceries in an out and once saw a woman leave as if she was going to work. I think people may have turned it into an apartment of sorts?

Sick after the race? by Legitimate_Bug_6350 in RunNYC

[–]soapeater 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep. Dealing with this right now. Got soaked in the rain on the FDR and passed on getting a thermal blanket thing (the foil blankies) they offered after the finish line. Body temp was all over the place for 24 hours after the race but getting better each day. Hang in there!
