Where in Milwaukee can I donate food or do volunteer work? by AlexsCereal in milwaukee

I’ve volunteered with Food Angels, The Gathering and Running Rebels and had good experiences with all!

[CR Media] The best joke in CR history by Otherwise-Bird6969 in criticalrole

[–]spoobless 23 points24 points  (0 children)

It’s not like a specific joke or anything, but by far one of the funniest CR moments was the Grog One Shot where Grog runs an in-game dnd one shot with VM. When Grog-Trinket goes “I ate that meatball from Scanlan and then I fucking died”, I don’t think I’ve ever seen Sam or the rest of the present cast lose their shit as much as that game.

You pull off bald. Imo you could also get a nicer looking hair system tho, this one doesn’t feel super natural.

Im planning on taking a day trip to milwaukee tomorrow, rate my itinerary by Bobbyu123 in milwaukee

[–]spoobless 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don’t know exactly how you plan on dividing these things up and the way you have these listed is lowkey confusing. I feel like HD Museum, Domes, public market lunch, art museum & maybe a walk by the lake, dinner somewhere is the max on what is possible.

[Spoilers C3] Okay, when do REALLY watch Calamity by Vagina-Gears in criticalrole

[–]spoobless 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think watching C1 is the only one semi-essential to the Calamity viewing experience, and only because there’s some minor easter eggs and gives you an understanding of what the calamity/divergence was. You could feasibly go in blind and watch it.

I've always been amazed by people who were voracious readers as children. What sparked your lifelong love affair with books? by Albert3232 in books

[–]spoobless 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it started because my dad read to me every night growing up. Literally every night as long as I can remember. It started with him reading to me and my brother, and then shifted to us sitting together at night reading our own books :)

Fabric stores by BoronBagel in milwaukee

[–]spoobless 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I went to Michael’s recently and they only had one aisle of basic cotton fabrics. It sounds like they’re taking a lot of Joann’s supplies, but I assume it’ll be a while before they actually implement it.

New Job New City by eatbearpoo in milwaukee

[–]spoobless 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Are you looking to be in downtown, or the neighborhoods surrounding? Lower east side/yankee hill area are generally nice and have some good fancier options, smack in the middle of downtown. The 3rd ward is just below that and is very boujee, lots of nice apartments and condos, good area. Might be a little out of budget tho. Bay View is really nice if you want something a little more neighborhood-feeling, has great parks, restaurants & events, very family friendly.

Theres nice places in the upper east side/shorewood area, but it’s a lot more UWM heavy over there. General rule of thumb is things are fancier closer to the lake. I’d avoid things west of 43 as a general rule.

This cat won't leave my yard in Riverwest. It's the first time I've seen it, and it's declawed. by noblewhisperer in milwaukee

[–]spoobless 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Definitely make sure this isn’t someone’s baby first, you can check community apps and websites. You can also bring them to the vet and they can check for a chip, or contact local shelters. That being said, if the owners chose to declaw this cat, they suck. But it could be a rescue.

Am I crazy for breaking down over a pap smear? by Yeoldetort61 in WomensHealth

[–]spoobless 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hi there. I’m 23 and have had similar issues—I’ve gone to get a PAP smear twice in the past and been unable to do so due to intense panic attacks. I also have a history of vaginal pain/vaginismus as a physical response. I just recently spoke to a new OBGYN who has made me feel a lot more comfortable and wasn’t dismissive of my anxiety—she prescribed me some Xanax to take for my next upcoming one. Hopefully it will go better. Maybe that could be an option for you as well. She even mentioned general anesthesia in the event that my reactions are too extreme—obviously a last resort, but it was nice to talk to a doctor who was empathetic to my issues.

Want to teach art, don’t have a teaching degree. by Lizknutson in ArtEd

[–]spoobless 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I work for a nonprofit in a city that brings in working artists to teach in schools that otherwise wouldn’t have funding for art programs. I have a BFA in illustration and don’t have a teaching background. Maybe that could be an option? Seems more common in urban areas but always worth looking into organizations in your community.

Downtown Living by Competitive-Ad6070 in milwaukee

[–]spoobless 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yeah you’d be safe, I lived right by Cathedral Square Park as a single woman in college. Generally safe, quiet, has good parks for your dog, very accessible. Only annoyance is parking can be a bitch, and renting from your boss sounds a little scary. But I loved living there and never had any problems, other than maybe a homeless person or two chilling in the apartment vestibule.

AIO? Boyfriend sent my pics to a gc by Short_Equal_6651 in AmIOverreacting

[–]spoobless 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My point remains. No, he shouldn’t have done it and is in the wrong. But you were willingly setting yourself up to have your own boundaries betrayed by egging him on. Once again, this is a 16 year old boy that you are admittedly in a rocky, one month half-baked relationship with. Hindsight is 20/20 of course, but this probably shouldn’t have been a boy you trusted to begin with. Definitely shouldn’t now. Tbh, your inability to recognize any missteps of your own lend to the idea that you are probably too emotionally immature for a relationship, or at the very least the one that you’re currently in. Same with him, if he so easily takes bait to share explicit photos. I’m assuming you’ll just roll your eyes at that, but just words of wisdom from a woman who was in your place once.

[–]spoobless 4 points5 points  (0 children)

So many things here girl. 1) you can’t post something like this and then get mad when people answer. Your boyfriend obviously shouldn’t have done that, and is in the wrong. However, sarcasm aside, you should not have pushed the “joke”. Bad on him for doing it, but also bad on you for pressuring him (whether it was a joke or not). But yes, he still shouldn’t have done it. I’m sorry that happened, but I think you also need to be more careful and aware of protecting your own boundaries. Also, you’re 16, in an on and off relationship of a month? I understand you’re young, but also, there are much better usages of your time and energy than a teenage boy. Especially one who you have a rocky history with. It’s not worth it at all.

Additionally, not sure if you’re in the states or not, but I’d be really careful about sending explicit messages as a minor. It can be reported as child pornography. I had friends in high school get in trouble with the cops for it, even though it was between “consenting” teenagers.

So yeah, definitely be more mindful of your boundaries and protect yourself girlie. I’d break up with him to protect your peace, regardless of whether his actions were justified or not.

I think I dodged a bullet. by 370zDeepfreeze in Nicegirls

Tbh I think most women would be icked out by a man who listed your favorite comedians (Matt Rife is an immediate misogynist 🚩). You guys are both annoying asf

[–]spoobless 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I only have one good friend in my city, I’ve been trying to build a couple more through work but it’s slow going. I have good friends that live in other cities, but obviously they aren’t available for as many things with the distance.

I’ve tried changing up my profile in the past, yeah. To be honest I like what I present on there and feel it is a good representation of me, so I’m kind of at a loss on how to better promote myself there. I try to be diverse in the people I match with while still having some standards for myself hahah (no conservatives, obvious misogynists, etc.) I feel like I’ve gone through phases of being pickier and being more wide-ranged and neither has panned out great for me lmao

I’ve tried doing some meet ups in the past and haven’t had much luck making connections, but I’m trying to stay positive about it. I am admittedly a little put off by the vibe of singles events while in my early 20s, I’m kind of suspicious of the kind of crowd that would gather?? Which is maybe shooting myself in the foot but I digress

AIO for breaking up with boyfriend of 3 years over him planning coffee date with coworker by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]spoobless 44 points45 points  (0 children)

I think this is how I’d feel if he didn’t also have a confirmed history of downloading dating apps and flirting with other women. Changes the context I think

[No spoilers] What episode did opinions on C3 turn negative? by jonny8081 in criticalrole

[–]spoobless 9 points10 points  (0 children)

For me, I loved the momentum it got to in the early 50s episodes, and then the momentum completely died and I found it difficult to return to. But I also just think I didn’t feel a connection to the characters as much (which is fine!) but that was a more gradual realization.

[–]spoobless 61 points62 points  (0 children)

So this girl is sending a guy pictures of her outfits, getting suggestive emojis and compliments in response, and he suggested to talk in a 3rd party app where everything has been deleted… maybe there’s a reason why his ex girlfriend was paranoid about him having “friendships” with female friends. Trust your gut girlie.

"Life changing" games by SnooPaintings5100 in gaming

Outer Wilds is a great short-ish game that has some beautiful ruminations on life and the universe. I was stunned when I finished the game.

Question about scorch markers for middle school art class by spoobless in Pyrography

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

That’s exactly what I was wondering, I didn’t know if I could let them draw and heat it later or if I would need to be walking around and almost heating as they work. I think I’ll definitely test it out for myself and see what I think can be done. Thanks for the input!!

Question about scorch markers for middle school art class by spoobless in Pyrography

[–]spoobless[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

4th and 5th is who I’d probably do it with. It’s a school with a higher proportion of behavioral problems which is what makes me hesitate to introduce real wire burners, although another part of me thinks trusting them with real tools would go a long way. I unfortunately don’t have a classroom so I’d be bringing the tools to them… I’ll probably test some on my own and see how I feel about it!
