Multiple price hikes announced today by large firms (Addidas, Nike etc) which will impact inflation in the coming months. May be a good time to revisit your budget for the rest of the year with this in mind.

Sneaky…but why dont you create a profile on Adam4Adam or similar site instead?

This is fantastic news! Now he is free to run for public office…like Al Franken. I cant wait to see it!!!

Good help is hard to find. To be fair…if you called me a bitch I would burn your coffee too! 😎

Up until just before Covid there were active shoe shine stands at all Amtrak stations in the North East. I frequented Philadelphia, NYC and Boston. Grand Central Station in NYC had multiple stands too for commuters.

As long as you keep giving, he will keep asking. Tell him no, that you are blocking his number and that if he contacts you again from another number you will contact the police and file a complaint. Then ignore him. He doesnt want to make waves, he is just taking advantage.

Please clarify…are they pretty or are they funny? Hard to believe they are both! 😉

Oh dear. Someone’s been inhaling too much hair spray again. Look away folks, the ranting has started!

I guess I shall be adding “no one” to my Grindr profile as one of my many delightful attributes! 😏 And now I know I can find others with similar attributes at the Frick.

Don’t be ashamed…we all pay the “stupid tax” at some point. Learn from it and move on. And thank you for making us aware - you probably saved someone else from paying the tax on this dude.

Back in NYC - I am tempted.

Are you mainly concerned with the throat chakra or the root chakra?

My read is that he isnt actually in Chicago. He is in the Ukraine and looking for assistance to relocate.

Make a list of the attributes you expect from a marriages. I suspect you will find very few of them apply in your case… He isn’t honest, he didn’t communicate, he didn’t care how his decision impacted you. Bottom line: he lied to you from before the day you got married. How could you trust him? His behavior could meet the definition of fraud, so speak to an attorney and get an annulment or divorce.

Welcome Rrik!

I hate to disagree. 🤓 https://www.bbc.com/future/article/20250320-how-close-are-we-really-to-mining-asteroids

I couldn’t deciper what you wrote so I asked chatgpt to translate: “I wish I had trusted my instincts. Despite a lack of meaningful feedback and a few concerning photos, I went ahead with the meeting. When he opened the hotel door, I was shocked: his appearance was dramatically different from his profile, with exaggerated makeup and features that made the encounter feel unsettling. While some may feel it’s unfair that I chose not to stay, I believe it’s more unfair to misrepresent oneself. While others might enjoy what he offers, it simply wasn’t for me.” 🤓

I assume you mean bourbon and duct tape?

I don’t think you understood the question. @ericwinters asked about NYC, not Chicago and the must do or lesser known events, not the parade. 🤔

Still able to find a cloud for every silver lining, I see!

Pro tip: it annoys me when the paddles in the bottom of the pan leave dents/gaps in my bread. So I remove the kneading paddles just as the final rise and bake cycle starts. No paddle marks! 😉

He must be looking at a specific neighborhood - I was helping a friend look for a place the past week and she found multple places above 125th street in Manhattan with 3 bedrooms that was under $5k. None of them were dumps. All had basic amenities.
