Long shot here. My wife has been trying to get Taylor Swift tickets with no luck. I'd love to come in and save the day. Does anyone have one extra ticket that they'll be willing to sell?

The Doner “Detroit” spot...thoughts?

Champagne/Wine reco as a gift to a mentor. Currently looking at Ruinart Blanc du blancs, Bollinger Vintage 2012, Laurent-Perrier Grand Siecle. Can also go with red like Caymus or Stags Leap. $100-$150

How does everyone feel about CCA / The Gong Show?

Bought a bunch of PS4 games at start of quarantine and never got started. Between Fallout 4, Witcher 3, Uncharted 4, and The Last of Us, where should I start?

Where’s the best place to watch sunset around downtown Chicago?

Hey all! Need a couple book recs for an upcoming beach trip.

Looking for a great non-fiction, relating to travel or world history (not just one moment in time). Could also be about the marketing world or memoirs of a business leader kinda thing.

Fiction wise I also like fantasy, paranormal, and romance. Some fave book series are the Black Gryphon from Mercedes Lackey, Game of Thrones, and From Jamaica Lane series. Similar books?

Help me with my struggle!

I'm in Oklahoma, and an avid Aldi shopper. Prior to COVID, my favorite merlot was routinely stocked there - under $6 a bottle and better than many $30 bottles I've had. It was by Burlwood Cellars. Sadly, supply chain issues have apparently done a number on Aldi's wine selection and it's not carried there anymore. I've searched high and low for a comparable merlot, but to no avail. So I need alternate suggestions or better still, somewhere I can buy my old fav.

Moving out of NYC in a week. Where do I need to eat before I go? 😋

I recommend books I've never read to people who ask for book suggestions.

Is it a red flag if someone says they don’t believe in self help books like Atomic Habits, Attached, etc?

With things as they are, anybody have favorite delivery or pick-up spots for dinners? Cooking is fun but starting to get repetitive!

Really enjoying these Book of Mandalorian episodes

What do you think of Just Egg?

I'm not going to get back 5 hours of my life.

Watched "Indian Matchmaking". Full of incredulous stereotypes that I abhor. Indian here, btw.

Are there any good apps to help a newbie get into weight training?

Anybody here trying to get into Project Management? If so, what makes you want to get into PM?

Anyone looking at traveling to Costa Rica? They have a list of states from which they will admit tourists while also requiring a negative covid test, health history, etc. As someone not on the approved list, I am bitter and curious why the population is grouped at a state level when there are massively different rates of infection within each state (not to mention personal responsibility) and you are already required to present a negative test. Any idea how often those lists get updated?

After 3 years, the therapist disclosed that she’s in the program. I had wondered often about the source of her knowledge of the steps. Still I would’ve preferred her to remain anonymous in this regard. Now I keep wondering about whether I’ll see her at a meeting and what her story is. So odd. So self centered of me.

Do companies sometimes offer "gifts of appreciation" if you're not selected for a merit increase? My manager randomly called me to let me know I was chosen for the "gift" this year bc of my "hard work & dedication", except now I'm learning other colleagues are receiving actual merits.
I mean it's possible that I may receive a merit, but I feel like I won't considering my manager never brought it up & the dept update made it sound like those receiving it should know by now.

Guys...how to follow up with HR without sounding desperate?

A first year asked me today how to maintain wlb to make the job work long term. Oh you sweet summer child.

So what are some of the use cases we are seeing in the market ? I’m seeing some in supply chain, some in identity management.

In the interview process for JPMorgan UX Designer role a if you work there, what is your salary for a senior role/ VP role? Is it hybrid/ remote? How do you like it?

I was trying to figure out what my personality trait was a few days ago. It’s depression, my personality trait aside from work is depression

I feel inadequate and unsure of how or if to acknowledge the US/Buffalo racist murders and terrorism of this weekend in the workplace. I don’t want to do disservice or unintentionally further traumatize anyone. I know my Black colleagues are traumatized. I am horrified. And yet we just have our meetings and I guess compartmentalize it away.

Tips for getting deeper into meditation?

Finally! The cool kids. 🤘🏼

Happy Monday Metalheads! Start your week off on the right foot, listen to Black Crown Initiate. You're welcome.

Oddly have found some cool Russian metal bands recently that i have been listening to nonstop; Second to Sun is more of a black metal group, but has some groove thrown in every now and then, and Katalepsy is a death metal band with a little bit of core thrown in.

Was shocked that there is no bowl for us. So thought I could maybe make a focal point for us to congregate

Check out the new album from The Ocean, I have been listening to it for a week straight now.

They may not be considered "metal" but I am PUMPED about a new Deftones album!!!!

We need more activity in this bowl: thoughts on the new LoG and Hatebreed singles?

If you ever wondered what black metal with old west atmospherics sounds like, check out the new album by Wayfarer

The babies that I bake fill a volcano. I’m clogging up the kill. My wretched baby paste requires Drano!

Did Eddie Van Halen come into your radar ? Personally I was never enamored by guitar virtuoso s and if I did Eric Johnson’s Cliffs of Dover is something I could listen to over and over again
