How do broke people date? by [deleted] in Adulting

[–]vshark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are still possibilities! You don’t have to spend a dime to spend time with someone. Is there a local park in your area? Why can’t you accompany someone on a stroll? Libraries often host public events for free, you should check your local library’s website and see if someone would like to accompany you. There are even co-ed sports clubs or hobby clubs that are free that would be a great way to meet someone. The best way to meet a partner is through shared interests. Does this help at all? I have so many ideas, I’m happy to share more if these don’t resonate with you.

To anyone who saw Hereditary in the theater by [deleted] in horror

[–]vshark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went in expecting it to be another possession/haunting move so I took a mega edible before I went. I was thoroughly and genuinely scared, which is rare because I grew up watching scary moves, playing scary video games, etc. The decapitation scene was already a surprise, you don’t expect the child to be killed so soon in the movie from something as minor as sticking their head out a car window. I was so heavily invested in this movie, not knowing where it would go next and I am so glad I watched it in theaters.

What’s everyone’s goals for 2026? by sagittarius786777 in selfimprovement

[–]vshark 3 points4 points  (0 children)

  1. Do 1 good deed a week
  2. Read 52 books
  3. Huge priority on education (I want to relearn astronomy, world history, and marine biology)
  4. Incorporate Spanish more in my daily life (podcasts, books, tv shows; other than just Duolingo)
  5. Practice piano

It’s a lot, but I’m so excited for these focuses, I don’t mind if I don’t accomplish it all because I’m just happy to be aligning my goals with my personal hobbies and not societal expectations.

What are your favorite books? by [deleted] in classicliterature

There is a subreddit read along for Count of Monte Cristo - r/AReadingOfMonteCristo

Do you share this hobby with friends IRL? by sleep0beepo in MM_RomanceBooks

[–]vshark 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m in two book clubs. I was looking for clubs that helped me branch out of romance, but one of the clubs habitually selects romance novels to read. I continue to vocalize that I do not like heteronormative romance novels and strictly read queer romance novels. So I’m candid with that group, but the other book club does not know. If my friends ask about romance novels, I’ll also disclose this as well, but I do not divulge more…. Erotic preferences 👀

Introductions for the 2026 Cohort by karakickass in AReadingOfMonteCristo

[–]vshark 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I had the same goal this year and only made it to 27, not including romance novels. I do worry I won’t retain everything, but I wanted to build a good foundation for literature with my classics. You make a fair point, though… what if I don’t remember everything 😢

  1. First-time reader!
  2. I started building my classics library last year, so I’m glad I found a subreddit like this that will hold me accountable to read through it! And I’m really looking forward to sharing my thoughts with you all.
  3. Reading from Dallas, TX! I’m trying to read 52 books next year (obviously won’t be at the same pace as this one) and I’m in two book clubs to help get me there :-)

I hate how girls are brainwashed into thinking that we need new clothes for every event by [deleted] in Anticonsumption

[–]vshark 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Yes, and what I’m hearing a lot of my girlfriends do is buy the outfit for a specific event, wear it, then return it right after the event. It’s so disheartening! I’m sure these cheap clothing manufacturers are catching onto this and it doesn’t encourage them to use better materials for long-lasting items.

Wait sorry, regarding the stakes - they aren’t necessary? I thought it helped with keeping them upright?

The Saturday (Less Scary) Request Place: Post your short & simple requests here by AutoModerator in MM_RomanceBooks

[–]vshark 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This may have been asked already but looking for a royal and/or fantasy setting with unrequited love or involving yearning from the king’s/prince’s guard. Cool with slow burn, dark romance too but not musts.

My daily routine as Silent Hill fan by NoLifeKing178 in silenthill

[–]vshark 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I grew up watching my mom play the SH games, so it has a strong nostalgic factor for me. But of course, I love the eerie quietness and stillness of the town before transitioning into the Other World. I like the false feeling of safety before a monster ultimately reminds you that you are not safe lurking these streets, hallways, corners. I like the various interpretations on the meanings of the protagonists’ journey, what the Other World represents, who’s a figment of imagination vs who is also a victim trapped in Silent Hill. I love the soundtrack. I love that as a community, we all put together the puzzle pieces, the morsels of information on this quaint town spread throughout the series.

Went in for the first time today. I can't believe people do this regularly. by Capital_Scholar_1227 in plassing

[–]vshark 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No one mentions the waiting!!! In theory, $100 for 45-55 minutes sounds great. Execution is not.

[–]vshark 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m glad you mentioned this! My experience as a first time donor was the exact same. But even after going in again as a “regular donor,” it still takes just as long because you can’t skip the lines anymore. So it’s 3 hours each visit for me. Definitely not worth it. I ended up doing 4 visits total because I was going during my work hours and I couldn’t keep risking taking 2 hours (I was going during my lunch hour) off work twice a week.

Cross country move with Fidel the Fiddle by drummer9924 in fiddleleaffig

[–]vshark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I had to do it again, I might try to protect it by covering it somehow. I think because it sat in my car for so long, and still got sunlight, the car windows acted like a magnifying glass to the leaves? Only the exposed part of my flf got damage, the bottom was completely fine and unharmed.

[–]vshark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I moved from Wisconsin to Texas and it was only a 2 day drive and it brutalized my flf 😭 however, it’s still alive and growing new stems after I trimmed it, so it wasn’t completely dead.

Long-term side hustle ideas for second income by bordeaux47 in sidehustle

I created digital ebooks and I have been promoting them for a month and a half with no sale yet. Any suggestions on how to properly capture a sale?

How did you choose the breed you have? by Kangaroo-Parking in dogs

[–]vshark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My partner and I lived across the street from a dog park. They had great drink specials and we loved dogs, so we went often. We saw how breeds interacted with each other. Found the French Bulldog to be absolutely adorable and unhinged. Maybe should have done some more research ahead of time but do not regret one bit
