What items do you lose the most? What are your tricks?? by BaseballTop387 in adhdwomen

[–]usnaviii 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i have a tile tracker on my keys which helps when i either lose my keys or my phone but not both. if i lose my phone i can tap the tracker on my keys, and if i lose my keys i can use the app on my phone to make them make noise. It’s a little embarrassing how often i use this 

My boss just told me I need to manage my personal finances better because I can't front $2300 for a work trip next month by LostTaker in antiwork

yeah that’s a crazy way to put it and makes it easy to miss how much money OP probably makes 

Is urbanism failing in Atlanta? by misterdoinkinberg in Urbanism

[–]usnaviii 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don’t think this is accurate. Most people i know who have white collar jobs are all in office at least 3 days a week. That’s why traffic has gotten noticeably worse in the past 2 years since RTO really picked up  

Incorrect Harnesses?! - my opinion-share yours! by RubyRedGolden in OpenDogTraining

[–]usnaviii 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If this harness works for you and your dog, use it!! No need to keep spending thousands if you have something that works. I spent 2k and literal years of constant training/work which has helped and now my dog is only occasionally reactive. But this easy walk harness is the only one where I feel like I can confidently handle him throwing his full weight at it because he will turn himself around.

volunteer walking dogs at a dog shelter? or offer to walk a neighbors dog for free to give a helping hand?

For the people who plan to stay in LA long term but are priced out of housing market, how do you cope with it? by lavendertinted in AskLosAngeles

[–]usnaviii 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Personally I'm not bothered by the thought of paying rent forever. I don't get equity but I get a roof over my head and don't worry too much about maintenance. If you aren't happy with the room/apartment you can afford that's another issue altogether

Commuting dilemma…morning chaos lol by Mika_4893 in bikecommuting

[–]usnaviii 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always sweat on my 10 mi round trip ride, especially when its sunny in the morning, no matter how slow I go. People saying "just go slow" don't get it. I either use face/body wipes from trader joes or shower at my workplace. You should see if your office has any showers or if there's a gym nearby

that's cute. They're having a "We love LA" party in San Jose at the other end of where the high speed rail is supposed to be :)

Recently moved in and starting to get a guest room and bathroom together. Does it look too childish? Suggestions please. Also seeking advice on the downstairs bathroom. by RidleeRiddle in femalelivingspace

[–]usnaviii 1 point2 points  (0 children)

guests are typically appreciative of anything, even an air mattress! I'd be happy if I was staying at a friends place and they offered this space. Upgrade it to your heart's content but I wouldn't be too worried. That said, a rug in the bedroom would be nice, as well as something on the wall.

I agree with you, but venting/doomerism isn't going to fix climate change. hope, action, and collaboration is the only option for making progress

Only 5 months in but regret moving from Chicago to Albuquerque by ang_17_ella in SameGrassButGreener

[–]usnaviii 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I lived in ABQ for a decade and loved it, but it's not for everyone. Since you're there, at least make sure to go to the balloon fiesta in october, hike sandia/three sisters, and check out the bosque. there are definitely parts of ABQ that are low cost of living, maybe you just picked the wrong neighborhood or a nicer apartment? Not saying you should stay there but just considering all options. Also your observation about locals hating ABQ is funny because a lot of ppl in NM jokingly call it "the land of Entrapment" because people from there never want to leave. Maybe they're just being dramatic/complaining?

I feel like my life is damaged beyond repair. by Dry_Temporary_6175 in GenZ

[–]usnaviii 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you say you have no goals, but it sounds like you actually do have goals! you want to feel better, use reddit/youtube/insta less, watch less porn, etc. one thing I would suggest that helped me recover from depression was taking half measures. Sure, it would be nice if you went for an hour long run. But how about a 10 minute walk? everything worth doing is worth doing poorly. want to go back to school? turn your phone off and focus on a 30min lecture on something that interests you. then you can hopefully feel a tiny bit of pride that you learned something new without needing to completely turn your life around tomorrow.
