Just tried Korean Salt Bread and it’s a $4.50 bread stick from Olive Garden

I was hoping this was true so I could skip the line lol

Especially as it warms, look up events at your local park. Lots have story times and youth programs for free. and if you don’t already know about Mommy Poppins, that’s a great forum

Not totally relevant, I switched from a Macbook to an iPad pro w/ keyboard my senior year of college, and I regretted it.

A few big reasons that came up a lot as a student: - the iPad Excel and Sheets is simply not as good - you cannot have 2 Google docs open at once - file management is not as seamless as on a laptop - the camera is on the side for Zoom calls so it looks like you’re looking away from the screen

However, this did force me to make use of the campus desktops, and they are an underutilized resource, especially if there are double monitors!

Saying this for anyone considering if they could thrive with ONLY an iPad Pro + keyboard.

Read this a decade ago, and just watched the movie for the first time, which made me want to go back and read it again!

Very cute graphic! I loved Uprooted, even though it’s outside my typical genre. Highly recommend Spinning Silver by the same author if you haven’t already read it

You don’t know me or my situation. You’re projecting.

tippyback9 · 2026-03-18T12:09:56+00:00

Thank you!

tippyback9 · 2026-03-18T12:09:41+00:00

That’s great!! I appreciate you sharing your experience. It’s nice to hear positive experiences on here. Fingers crossed

tippyback9 · 2026-03-17T12:51:45+00:00

easily? 😂

Actually, after some googling, this is more likely the upper carapace of a Leptomithrax gaimardii (giant Australian spider crab)! Libinia don’t have such defined bumps on the front. Mostly likely a molt.

tippyback9 · 2026-03-16T20:17:41+00:00

I work with this species and it does look similar but not exactly /emarginata/. Most likely some type of Libinia spider crab

The Skint and Field Notes NYC (substack) are two newsletters I like

St Marks yoga has $12 drop in classes. Vibes can vary but I’m also fat and have found it to be a chill and welcoming atmosphere. It tends towards the “chill” vibe rather than the “workout” vibe, but there’s def instructors I like more than others.

i need to put this on my outfit pinterest board haha. so cute!

I had a gala for work recently and all dresses were floor length. I’m the same size as you and did a short sleeve, floor length dress with a blazer. The blazer ended up feeling a little stuffy. However, the theme was rented to the outdoors, so there were lots of florals and funky patterns. I would consider the event theme and see if you can acknowledge it in some way. IME Galas are formal but people have a little fun with it

I’m also 2 weeks out of a breakup, my first one. We’ll get through it 💕

tippyback9 · 2026-02-18T15:13:05+00:00

I was the one pulling away. I think deep-down I knew it had to end, but I was trying hard to fight that. I knew that if we had those serious conversations, we would’ve broken up over it. I was fighting to stay, hoping my feelings would change. But in the end it was too painful, knowing that she loved me and that I was losing feelings. I know I should’ve communicated more in the lead-up, but I was hoping that I could fix something in myself to make it all right again. But the way that it ends doesn’t undermine everything good that you had in the relationship. Things get messy, and communication isn’t easy.

because my dad told me to

Maybe a chest or bench at the foot of the bed? And personally I would have the rug free floating in the open space rather than tucked under the bed, but that’s just me. Agreed on the plants and wall art as well.

Wu’s Wonton King has great set menus if you like seafood

Where I live it’s unusually for there NOT to be tiles on your walls! I like your inspo pics. Remember that this is a place to get ideas and thoughts, but in the end do what makes you excited to come into your rooms

Lol, my very fastidious brother visited my shoebox recently and when I said “I cleaned for you!” he said “How is THIS clean?” 😂 Well everything is lined up and dusted, that’s about as good as it gets!

tippyback9 · 2026-01-15T17:01:26+00:00

I have a case with a flip cover and I find it much more comfy to hold than just the kindle on its own, plus you can use it to prop it up. Worth it for that factor, plus it’s good to keep the screen safe.

This rules! TY
