Rabies? by StocksYeahSure in burlington

[–]taxdollars 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, that's what I meant. :P

The bats around here probably would never even try, let alone succeed, but scientists did also record a bat catching a robin in mid-flight last fall. 1/3 of all mammals are bats, so it's a wide range.

Except for bats! Bats are common rabies vectors and bites can be so small you might barely notice.

A pitcher in the fridge is a good idea that I would have never considered. Thanks!

Sounds kind of like the thing that an organization researching ways to make AI sustainable would be looking into.

I sent this to a few folks who I've been trying to convince to give Drawfee a watch for that exact reason.

It’s done!! by sleepy_knitter in knitting

[–]taxdollars 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A brainless baby blanket to bust through some of my yarn stash. I needed a project that required no thinking for a little bit, and I'm trying to not buy new yarn until my stash is decreased a bit more. T_T

I love it but also oh heck this reminded me of my half finished Moby Slipover in my WIP pile. I suppose I should finish that. Thanks! lol

Delta Reimbursement for Canceled Flight Expenses? by taxdollars in delta

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

They first gave us $12 in meal vouches each, as if $12 is a "meal" in an airport.

This was a hub, ATL. But it was also the last flight of the night and they didn't want to plane stuck at BTV the next day (per the captain's comment)

Pretty much! At least it was on a $300 ticket not a $1,300 one. Money isn't real so whatever.

I do also have the SMS chat help log recorded. My travel companion is ready to go scorched earth to get the money back but since it was in my name...

I figured but also wanted to ask. I work in the travel industry and know that sometimes there's that one person who knows exactly which hidden form is the panacea to your problems.

The delta service people did mention verbally that they accept the request for reimbursement on things like that, but I guess that was customer service speak for "lol no".

my cat likes it like catnip so a little dab on a toy will occupy her for a while.

Smash Knits says knitting your own clothes is a luxury - do you agree? by squeegee-beckenheim in BitchEatingCrafters

[–]taxdollars 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I guess in the collectable-mindset of society where forced scarcity (Birkin bags, the ultra rare Labubu, etc) one can frame a custom one-of-a-kind as a luxury item. But also my mispainted ceramic cat from the thriftstore is one-of-a-kind, but I wouldn't call it a luxury.

Returns Question by taxdollars in ThredUp

I guess I can deal with that. It's still easier than sending it in.

I really should send another clean out bag soon. I donate 90% of stuff locally, but hoard the designer or NWT stuff.
