  • I’d also be interesting in knowing if people have in-unit laundry. Being in an apartment complex where there’s 3 washers for around 50 people, it’s not feasible to wash towels after every use. That also sounds very wasteful!

    I shower every other day, and change the towels after a couple of weeks. The schedule is based on when they can get washed (laundry gets done every two weeks for clothes, and so it’s based on the availability of doing extra loads), or at the first sign of a smell or stain.

    Bedding gets changed on a monthly basis for the same reasons, again, unless there’s a smell or stain.



  • Is this X-Men’s Cyclops’ origin story? Maybe they’re worried you’ll have laser eyes and will need to wear protective eye wear for the safety of everyone around you.

    Really, though, lots of eye flashes can be an issue with your retina. For me, I suddenly had a ton of flashes, like shooting stars, followed by a dimness that lasted for several minutes. It turned out to be an ocular migraine, which was kind of scary not knowing what was going on at the time.






  • Just spitballing an idea. Along the lines of airdrop, does the instructor have a machine that the kids can send their music to when they’re done? This would create a backup, which the instructor could then organize and upload to a server (google drive?) that can be shared with the iPads as read only, so the kids could redownload the file again if need be.




  • What was the common thread from when you met the person? How did you hit it off with them?

    If you met at a bar, text them later asking if they’ve been to a certain brewery that just opened up (although this could sound like a soft invite to go there, so be prepared for that). If you connected about movies, tv shows, or music, ask them if they saw that new movie (show, album) that’s related to whatever you talked about (same director, sense of humor, style of movie, etc). Basically, just continue the conversation with them. Talk about related things and start to branch out, maybe you’ll find other common interests and things to talk about. You can send an article that you think they’d be interested in. Or a meme about their job.

    But make sure that the conversation isn’t one sided. If you’re always the one starting the conversation or carrying it, maybe back off some. They should be just as engaged as you are.
