    How do you carry, if you carry a gun?

    The Army still has them and thankfully that hipster look is finally a thing.

    Women Only Women Only: To avoid confusion and hurt feelings ...

    The first way would work but someone would only need to change their sex to see what's on the board so it's really not that effective. The second way may be too much work for the mods but it never hurts to make the suggestion.

    Women Only Women Only: To avoid confusion and hurt feelings ...

    What do you mean make it private? How would people get in?

    Good advice for coping with changing Covid regulations

    Personally I would ask a mod to close comments. The article speaks for itself.

    How do you carry, if you carry a gun?

    It's a deterrent when someone is inside the vehicle with the gun. It's not a deterrent when nobody is inside the vehicle and people know that a gun is still inside the vehicle. Then it becomes a reason to break into the vehicle.

    Women Only Women Only: To avoid confusion and hurt feelings ...

    Men can see what's posted but they're not allowed to comment. There's no practical way to stop men from reading the posts. It's an open discussion board. Even if they added a question about gender and restricted access to this sub-forum to women, anyone could just change their answer to gain...

    we need a dating site

    Everybody's different. While most people within reproductive age require some level of attractiveness that they like, that's not everybody's truth. Other people are more interested in intelligence, humor, money, body shape, supportively, etc. I have noticed the older people get, the less...

    Jeep Patriot... and getting nowhere fast

    When I first started, I was crashing in the back of my little Yaris hatchback with blankets, a pillow, and a duffel bag of clothes. When my ex joined me, we were crashing in the front seats with blankets, 2 duffel bags of clothes, and a duffel bag with some cooking stuff. Somehow, because I'll...

    we need a dating site

    That's understandable. When I was really young, my first concern was what the guy looked like. Right now I'm concerned about both - who he is and what he looks like. I'm sure one day, if I'm blessed to live that long and find myself single, I'll only care about who he is. That being said, that's...

    How do you carry, if you carry a gun?

    You're a good soul. I've learned to keep info about guns, laws, and rights to myself, unless specifically asked. The last time I tried to explain federal law vs state law and the limitations of 18 USC 926A, it did not go over well, I was verbally abused, and I said never again. Right or wrong...

    Women Only Saying “hi”

    Hi! Thanks for the post. I love seeing more women posting here. I'm in a house right now but I'm going to be doing some mini trips soon in my SUV. I've never slept in my vehicle by myself, unless I was drinking and then I'm fearless, so this will be completely new for me. I honestly thought...

    How do you people do it? Having a pet cat

    From what I've seen, they get use to the smell, ignore the hair, and since cats can't complain, they think the cat is happy because they're happy. People seem to be in deep denial. I've seen 3 cats kept in a minivan. 1 cat and 2 dogs kept in a car. 8 cats kept in an RV. 5 dogs kept in a car...

    we need a dating site

    Yes, I want to see if I'm attracted to them before I contact them. I couldn't imagine contacting someone, asking for a picture, and then either telling them I'm not attracted to them or just not talking to them anymore. That would be harsh. Me: Hey, you seem cool. Can I get a picture? Him...

    What's the cleanest, cheapest, most minimal eating I can do?

    It's actually the oil that keeps peanut butter from spoiling. Peanut butter won't spoil but the oil in it will go rancid, usually within 9 to 12 months from the time it's opened. Store bought mayonnaise is good out of the refrigerator for about 1 to 2 months before it starts turning colors and...

    What's the cleanest, cheapest, most minimal eating I can do?

    There have been studies that showed eating earlier was better for the body than eating later in the evening.

    When Vans Get Stolen

    Newer cars with key fobs can't be stolen without the key. While sophisticated thieves can steal the key fob signal, putting your key in a Faraday bag eliminates that risk. Basically I have to worry about my SUV being towed or broken into but not stolen.

    How do you carry, if you carry a gun?

    Nothing I said reflects I don't know my guns. I didn't comment on the length of your gun or say anything about your 2nd amendment rights (I have no desire to discuss anyone's rights to anything that doesn't affect me). You stated you leave your gun in clear view of the door for people to see...

    we need a dating site

    I would never randomly message a stranger unless I knew how they looked and that they were interested in dating. And people do notice and think negatively about people who come across as desperate.

    Off topic posts split from "How do u live on $700/month, truly?"

    Not sure if you're replying to me but this was before cell phones. However, if someone is receiving food assistance, they can get a cell phone for free. Since the US generally doesn't have public phones anymore, cell phones are a necessity, not a luxury.
