@ChristianityOn you really just have to get comfortable with being uncomfortable. Recently I (ND) went into my library, said “I lost books while I moved. I know there will be fees. I was embarrassed but I want to use the library again.” They waived the fees and I checked out some books.
@sing4yourself@Jpiter58 Removing all her music from streaming for multiple years because they didn’t pay artists what they are worth was a pretty big risk (and makes her streaming records even more impressive)
@KxmiKanSama They literally all sound like when teenagers are buying condoms or tampons for the first time and get nervous about going to the cashier. You just gotta exist in the world or shop online, no one cares.
@taybrinattpd@creelhouseattic Np!! If you have other questions about getting around lmk im happy to help out! I’m not going bc i can’t afford a ticket lol (starting law school this fall) so I’m living vicariously through the tl 😂
@taybrinattpd@creelhouseattic If you’re planning for public transit, Google Maps is a great resource! At JFK focus on getting to the shuttle but once you’re on the way there, use maps w the transit ootion to wherever you’re going, it shows the possible trains/transfers and frequency!
@taybrinattpd@creelhouseattic Ok so plan for an extra ~30 min if you’re transferring to the train, JFK can be weird with the shuttle to Jamaica station, which is where the transfers are! Do you have access to the place you’re staying right when you arrive? That’ll change recs. Happy to help as a local!
@squirtstain My partner had a Swedish au pair because his (Swedish) mom wanted him to speak Swedish and they’re still family friends. We went to her son’s wedding last year. We’re considering the same. What are the bad intentions you’re implying? I don’t wanna do it if it’s wrong.
