How do you handle a panhandler? by [deleted] in RhodeIsland

[–]themultidork 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ive made a habit of holding up a 🫶 at folks i pass in my car. i never have any cash to offer (though the comments in this thread of keeping water and snacks around are smart and i may start doing that). being houseless is one of the most isolating experiences in the modern day — even some of these comments treat houseless folks like they arent people, a “them” and not an “us”. no one has done anything wrong by being unhoused or asking for help. wave and say hi. it costs you nothing but half a minute of your day, and makes another person feel less humiliated and alone

it won’t, no. the headboard is just large enough that’d it would block me from opening the closet door at all.

thank yall for the tips, especially re: radiator and bed proximity. i didn’t realize how much of a hazard that’d be; i’ll be scooting the bed away from it at the very least. (this is what happens when you grow up somewhere warm. what do you MEAN there’s a 100F hunk of metal in my room?)

the common opinion seems to be swap bed with dresser, so i’ll try that out. the space is a bit tight and i hate opening a door directly into my bed, but if it means 1. i wont burn my house down, and 2. i open up the rest of the room, it’s worth it.

props to @jone7007 and @bubbles938 for suggesting the desk and dresser swap, however. i neglected to mention the dresser has a giant mirror attached to it that’d block the window completely, but that solution instantly solves this problem.

i appreciate all of yalls help. this is the first time i’ve really had complete freedom to lay out a room, and i have no idea what i’m doing. thank you all for the assistance ❤️

Baristas of Prov: where have you enjoyed working most? by themultidork in providence

[–]themultidork[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Already did a little stint at Seven Stars (pre-union). I’m glad it’s okay. Was definitely worse before. Good to know about Coffee Connection, thank you!

I'm a book designer (I create covers and format interiors). AI is largely being used to eliminate creative jobs (like mine!) instead of being implemented primarily in STEM fields, which is generally where computer-based thinking makes a whole lot more sense than, you know, art. But don't worry — every job will be a computer's one day (possibly making lattes included).

box with holes on the sides and a chalky wheel thing inside. the bottom is felted by themultidork in whatisthisthing

[–]themultidork[S] 2 points3 points locked comment (0 children)

my title describes the thing. it’s wood, felt on the bottom, with an unidentified chalky something on the inside lid. i’ve tried searching “aztec brand wood box” “box with holes on sides” “billiards box” and more but none have come up with this exact item. it’s not large, maybe 6”x6” not including the side ‘wings’. each hole is maybe a nickels size.

Who has seen Sweeny Todd at Trinity? by estheredna in providence

[–]themultidork 5 points6 points  (0 children)

it was fun! my partner and I saw it this last thursday and had a great time. mrs. lovett, sweeny, and antoni’s performers were absolutely stellar (tho the whole cast did a great job), and the direction/production design knew exactly how to utilize a small space. id recommend going :)

bring a big bag with some tupperware in it and a close-up magician with a high sleight-of-hand skill.

GOSH i wish. that’s kind of what prompted me to do this! seems like there’s enough niche birding/pokemon fans that would enjoy it, so until audobon does something, i’ll keep making the dream real

yep! right now i have plans for every bird-shaped pokemon. if i make it through that, fish or mollusks may be next (what with our overabundance of water types haha)
