    What is your city known for?

    I don't know yet.. since we just got here a year ago, and then proceeded to spend all year back and forth between here and Brooklyn schlepping our stuff up over the course of 9 months.. and so, we haven't really had the chance to go out and explore and do anything social or fun, for that...

    Anti-Adblock messages

    I don't really see them to be honest.. I use Adaway on my devices.. and I use the blocklists used by other ad blocking software.. and I do the same on my laptop and desktop using Hostsman and I go to warez and porn sites to update my lists. I dont use AdBlock because they work with companies...

    What would you do if...

    Leave that shit exactly where I saw it and walk away. In fact, I wouldnt even break my pace.. except to speed up.. I'd just run away.. I believe in some things being a coincindence, and in this particular instance it wouldnt be. There could be cameras watching it, and the people's...

    Thrifting at thrift stores

    Goodwill is super pricy for a thrift store.. and up here my husband didnt have as much luck but saw a lot of good things but potential not to get them there and instead went to Thriftyshopper instead.. And he did. I guess Goodwill charges what they do out of name recognition..

    How do you like your steak?

    There isn't a such thing as being too picky when buying a house. It is literally one of these largest investment you will ever make, so this isnt something that should be taken lightly. What I learned from our process was that home inspections prior to purchase wasn't really a thing. Which is...

    Thrifting at thrift stores

    I will keep an eye out.. Black Friday shopping up here is a LOT more calm and a LOT less LETHAL up here than when I lived in Brooklyn.. I mean it is like a total night and day difference.. when my husband and I first came up here to visit my brother for Turkey Day (I celebrate the Turkey, rather...

    Learning another language mandatory in school?

    I don't think it should be mandatory, but in my case it was.. you had a choice between Spanish, French, German, Italian or Sign.. I ended up taking Spanish in high school, because I had it in junior high and it was really fun and I excelled at it. So for me it was a natural fit, although I wish...

    SCOTUS Rules Against Colorado Law in Website Case

    Yep. This is why I don't always get the anger.. yes, it sucks to be discriminated against, and insulted for being who you are naturally.. since unlike being an asshole, your sexuality is not a choice, at least not where I am concerned. And yes, the idea of having to basically have to go on a...

    Authorities Charge Man w/Manslaughter After Subway Incident

    I am honestly surprised about this to be honest.. things have indeed changed for sure. The last time I rode the subway (a few years ago) this kind of thing would not have been tolerated.. I have seen the straphangers (passengers) get angry over some people being rude to performers and people...

    Authorities Charge Man w/Manslaughter After Subway Incident

    It should be murder since he literally got up out of his seat and strangled someone. Its not like he accidently did it.. he literally walked over and strangled this person, who as an entertainer, literally did more to make people happy than he ever did. I also read somewhere that he ignored...

    SCOTUS Rules Against Affirmative Action in 6-3 Decision

    It is always easier to do things gradually than abruptly. The reason everyone is rebuking Trump now, is because he was too obvious about what his party was trying to do. And he is a boisterous idiot. So he drew attention to a lot of the stuff that his handlers wanted to keep in the dark, and...

    SCOTUS Rules Against Colorado Law in Website Case

    This isnt surprising.. but that industry is circling the drain anyway since there are a shit ton of tools out there to automate web and gfx design.. Canva is one of them and I forget the name of the one that does websites out of the box.. And this industry is set to be done by AI probably...

    Know everything the govt knows about aliens?

    I am sure they are out there, I mean it would be ignorant as fuck to assume that our planet is the only one out there with life on it.. That would be like assuming that because you had sex, and got pregnant, that it would only happen to you.. and not anyone else that does the same. The same...

    Burning flags?

    Its protected by our First Amendment and considering the attrocities commited under our flag both internationally and domestically, people should be glad that it is only a cheap piece of cloth made in China, that is being burned. I think it shows immense restraint and I support anyone who does...

    SCOTUS Strikes Down Biden Student Loan Forgiveness Plan

    Wasn't ACB a supporter of this.. I mean she ruled in favor for it in the lower courts.. supposedly this was something she supported.. Not surprised by this at all.. debt slavery is highly lucrative, as is the others.. and that is exactly what this ruling will make worse.. We can also thank...

    Staying Weather Aware During Periods of High Temps & Heat Waves

    I can imagine.. all those cities are below sea level too right? Myrtle Beach is beautiful, but fucking terrifying for that reason.. I am used to the sea being lower than the horizon.. not above.. LOL

    SCOTUS Rules Against Affirmative Action in 6-3 Decision

    Right. But tuition is so damned expensive.. and I have always wanted to go to an HBCU myself.. but I am not sure if there are any up here.. And I read that it wasn't Asians who complained.. it was 3 White men and an Asian man used as a prop. I read that Asians didnt have a issue with this...

    Staying Weather Aware During Periods of High Temps & Heat Waves

    With Grandma and Grandad the church was basically our third home.. and even during the week.. Grandad was a pastor and Grandma was a missionary.. and we even had church during the week, but at night because it was adult bible school that my Grandmother would occasionally teach.. she would go do...

    LOL I know you do.. you were the same way at my place.. And yeah, I completely forgot how unbearable the South is with humidity.. Myrtle Beach in August. OMG this was the WORST humidity ever.. LOL Orlando in August. Nassau in August.. All bad.. though at least Nassau had the wind so it...

    I honestly wonder how HBCUs will response to this.. as it is in some of them, the student body looks no different than a PWI..
