Until my knee starts hurting after wearing or water gets in, whichever is first. My gait tends to result in uneven wear and my feet are near flat and a bit wide…I’ve been searching for a shoe that lasts and is comfy for a long time. Sneakers are comfy but last about a 1-2month before the wear is noticeable when walking and by 6mo water is getting in. Got some good leather shoes (and boots for winter) that are lasting now 1.5yish but aren’t as comfy as I would like.

Other way around friend capital i is still shorter than lowercase L

Il=iL lI=Li

That’s still only a start.

You gave reddit permission whenever you posted anything to their site. The fact that they actually “cited” you at least in a rudimentary fashion is more than most. I could quote this or any other post whenever and there’s nothing to stop me. There’s no damage to you and no privacy posting in public.

Yeah, surprising for ex cia and zionist slotkin to be with this.

Libraries are generally pretty good for books and audiobooks. Get stuff through libby or hoopla.

What’s your budget? It really depends on what your rent is and I guess how much health insurance your employer covers.

A Pooja is a sort of ceremonial prayer. It’s also a common name associated with some actresses who were or are attractive.

As an aside theres a movie “Khabie Kushi Khabie Gum” with a character named Pooja living in the UK. The filmmakers decided should have the nickname (drumroll please) Poo. No, it is not possible to take seriously.

I question whether that can occur in a good way. I don’t see human greed going away, better to cage it under heavy control and not get complacent.

You don’t have to leave if you can remodel. Best wishes on your journey to improve.

Being devil’s advocate here. I like to talk about my kid but I also know other people generally don’t care. You care about your kids its rare for other people, even friends and other parents. So idk whether just not mentioning them or caring about yours matters as to his actual dadness. I would also say that your friend may know he’s free those days for one reason or another. Maybe his wife has unreasonable expectations. The kids are always first but it is possible to make time for your relationship and yourself with some communication and luck. There are also often variations in which parent may be “primary” at times.

I have heard and seen some parenting things done that are well outside what I/we would do. Sleep training at 2mo, a sorta family pacifier (toddler would drop it, dad/mom would put in their mouth then back in toddler mouth), the cry it out method, being super stringent about feeding times and amounts, allowing rolling walkers, letting baby play at 2am, piercing ears, circumcision, etc. These babies are still growing up fine as far as anyone can tell.

Your friend and his wife need to communicate with each other and may be helped by couples therapy. You also need to communicate with your friend, judging him from a 2ndhand account by a person biased by their involvement and your own standards is wild.

“Its how we’ve always done it.”

Doubt you’d get agreement on that…

Probably somewhat yeah. How much is a harder question.

Still similar advice, get away, have a manager or ally deal with them. The point is to try and deescalate by removing yourself from the situation. If they prevent that and continue escalating then you escalate to the level needed to get away and call the cops on them.

Act like you can’t hear and get away. If she grabs or tries to block moving away then escalate to what is required to get away.

I’d rather die than deal with the ads thats cabs play nowadays.

I report and low rate shitty drivers, no real option for that for cabs.

So its not like restaurants where they can legally be paid under min if tips make it up but rather that housekeeping tends to be immigrants (often illegal) and thus underpaid. Most hotels will allow you to opt out of room servicing but when you leave they still have to “turnover” the room. Those neat sheets and clean towels all get thrown in the wash. The carpet still gets vacuumed, etc.

All that said I don’t really follow through on this all the time especially as I don’t carry cash as much nowadays.

Whole stay, when you’re leaving. What the housekeepers do is up to them. It isnt like restaurant tips, the expectation isn’t as engrained. Maybe 5-10 per time your room is serviced maybe more if you’ve left a real shitshow for some reason.

No on the bus driver. A hotel shuttle you can give a couple to if they help with the bags but generally not.

You and I know thats true and piracy in some cases is shown to increase sales because people decide its worth money and/or talk about it more. Heck some people pirate things they already own just because they’re too lazy to find the copy they own.
