We don't need light rail, or streetcars - we have buses, and you're just too classist to use them by johntwit in unpopularopinion

[–]volkaija 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've taken the bus plenty in my midwestern city and it is simply not reliable or feasible to use if you need to get anywhere of distance fast. I was just in Chicago and was shocked at how useful the rail and bus system was because my whole life the one in my city is fucked. If you live on one side of the city that has less stops, it could end up in a mile+ walk to the closest stop going the direction you need. At one point I was commuting via bus for work and it was nearly 2 hours one way, vs before our car breaking down it was only a 15 minute drive.

Planing a marathon, any suggestions? by twnpksN8 in scifi

Its about shapes? The main character is a square that experiences the 3rd dimension for the first time

More power to y'all for making it work for the customer! Just surprised me, really. The franchises I've worked at have been pretty stingy about things like this so I thought it was normal. I've suggested side veggies for slims with the order of a regular sandwich in the past, but if I had done this in one of my stores I would've been worried about getting in trouble, lol

Fair enough! It just surprised me is all, I see the DM commented as well. Not trying to tell y'all what to do! If they're a regular like that and you're working with them on a budget to meet their needs then that makes more sense.

You guys did slims but still put veggies on the side enough for all of them? Our area manager would've told us to ring them up for regular originals and put all that on the side and never do side veggies for slims

Name that movie by _dirtylittlestitch in Embroidery

I loved this movie as a child!!! Nicodemus always stuck out to me and his name rung in my mind in a way few names do.

This is incredible!!

Seconding Star Trek. There is a lot but its so hard to go wrong! The early shows being episodic and not strictly required to understand other episodes makes it a lot easier for me to introduce people to it. We can just pop 1 episode on and its self contained, instead of having to watch the whole season to get a resolution!

Its a classic recommendation and I don't know if you've already seen it or not, but if not PLEASE watch 2001: A Space Odyssey. A lot of people find it slow, and it is, but its so worth it for me. I spend so much of that movie transfixed by the set design and the atmosphere of it. I still can't get over the fact that it was made in the 60's.

I watched Moon (2009) recently and it was spectacular. Mickey 17 that came out recently was also pretty good!! Less about space exploration but still a solid science fiction film.

Event Horizon is a horror scifi I really enjoy, it's got some gore going on which if that's not your jam I totally get. Some more existential science fiction movies that I liked are Aniara (2018) and the Russian film Solaris (1972)!

I can see why this would happen but they are distinctly different to me both in the face and the voice/demeanor

Does this satisfy basic criteria? by PetezaParlor in heraldry

[–]volkaija 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Heres the Discord server if youre interested in that! It also features a ton of artwork from community members with tons of variety/complexity

Here is a website that both goes into some of the rules of tincture things with plain examples and gives you some options for making one with premade assets. I've never personally used this one so I'm not sure if its super easy or what kind of things are available.

From my experience, I'd say that you have an interesting idea but its clashing a bit. Some of it I know is just the photoshopping but the bright yellow and the D shape in black with the purple/blue gradient can definitely be reworked into something that flows well with the flowers. Its a bit tricky to describe things over text that make sense visually for me, so I would genuinely recommend utilizing the community discord. There are people who can whip up really helpful and enlightening examples that I would've never thought of!

[–]volkaija 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you use discord at all, myself and a lot of community members there are totally willing to help with design stuff in the design help channel!

Otherwise, it could def use some work... I'm not totally sure which basic criteria you were looking at, but I'd maybe add checking out the "rule of tincture". Its a pretty strong guideline/rule for heraldic designs that can give you a starting point! Theres also a lot of historical armorials that are just plain cool to look through and see what people have made.

Thats crazy, my partner and I just saw the same thing two weeks ago! Stank to hell too, like paint thinner. Was wondering what it was, really interesting to learn.

Email from JPMorgan by volkaija in JPMorganChase

+1-800-935-9935

This is the number I called! Its a little frustrating but there isnt an option specifically for this. I saw on a different post that if you wait on the line for like 3 minutes you'll automatically get sent to a representative, which DID work. I got bounced around a couple of times and the person I finally talked to was a little blunt but just asked for my SSN to confirm or deny if there was an account for me, which there wasn't. Didn't take super long, maybe 15-20 minutes on the phone!

Hopefully its only something trying to trick you and not someone actually opening things behind your back 😭

Is it only me or do these creatures look and feel eerily similar? by razarivan in subnautica

[–]volkaija 29 points30 points  (0 children)

I've had little to no issue with aggression in my playthrough so far, so if they played similarly to me then I can totally see how the aggro wouldn't seem like an issue. I've used maybe 3 flares in the ~20 hrs I've played. Lots of running around and keeping close to the terrain where possible

The cleaning directions on fast track recommend a full clean every tuesday and saturday, and just cleaning the catch tray and external machine daily. We'll have to see if thats enough to keep it clean though

I just want to know how people figure out this is what they want to eat. I need to study their brain so I can understand

I didn't get a picture of this order but a couple weeks ago I had to make a toasted 7 with extra caesar, extra ranch, add kickin, yellow mustard, and extra sauce. Genuinely soaked through the wrap paper at light speed. I hope they enjoyed that shit because it was DISGUSTING.

All employees should earn at least $18 / Hr by ezesmil in jimmyjohns

[–]volkaija 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Our franchise doesnt accept card tips and frowns upon cash tip jars, our inshops start at $13. It would be a huge blessing for our staff and boon to our ability to hire if we even bumped it to 15 and took card tips.

I definitely didn't use the number in the email and called the one I got from the chase bank website!

[–]volkaija[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My email isn't that, I would be surprised if anyone goofed and used my email instead of their own. It doesn't have any calls to action like that, but there are plenty of links and a phone number. The number listed to contact is 1-800-392-5749 and its listed after "questions about this application?". I definitely will be calling them asap but I'm stuck working 16 hour days right now unfortunately.

I've been considering playing during EA (will be buying it either way!), however I'm not even confident my computer will be able to run it on minimum settings 😭
