Probably the Mummers' Museum.

Wait, just two days ago, he was telling Europe that Russia could resume pipeline deliveries for them at any time. I swear, this guy gives me whiplash so bad!

> Is it because of budgetary reasons? Need to spend the money before the end of the year?

Doubtful. The budget year runs from July to June.

Call the township or the county or state, and ask them to mail you some bit of information: recycling rules, or a voter registration card, or info on a hunting/ fishing license or something. You won't end up on even more junk mail lists, you'll have proof of address, and it counts as official correspondence for your points. [If they initially balk, just say you don't have reliable internet or your printer is broken or something.]

I was a very reliable subscriber from my very first high school job through to my senior year in college. I think I was doing like $50 a year, which wasn't a huge amount but it also wasn't nothing for a broke-ass college kid who was also working a full-time job to pay for college on their own.

Anyway, the company I worked for decided to lay off a whole bunch of people in December, a couple weeks before Christmas. So I'm sitting there, very definitely not desperately crying (lie), and trying to figure out how I'm going to pay for rent, food, and the next semester of college - not to mention the trip home for Christmas, and all the other random shit you need to pay for. And WHYY called doing their annual sweep.

The conversation went something like:

Them: Hi, this is WHYY calling. We're doing our annual pledge drive and were hoping we could count on your support!

Me: Uhh ... [mentally: fuck fuck fuck. I dunno, maybe I find twenty for them? Maybe? ...]

Them: We're really making an effort for this year's pledge drive; could we put you down for $500?

Me, in utter shock: Uh, no, I just got laid off, I'm going to have to find another job. [mentally: and I've only ever given you $50 a year, what's with the ten-fold increase all of a sudden?!?]

Them: Oh, I'll so sorry to hear that! Maybe we could put you down for a hundred instead!

Me: No, I don't think so. [mentally: so I've just told you I have no income at all and you still want me to donate twice as much as ever before? WTF?!]

The canvasser said something else but I wasn't really listening anymore and we hung up shortly after.

I like WHYY and I get that the callers have targets to meet, but I haven't given them any money since then; I support NJN instead. And it's all down to that one phone call where they were just suddenly, spontaneously greedy af.

I agree with the orchestra, but I'd actually suggest that OP try the Philly Pops instead. Not because the orchestra is bad, but because the Pops are closing after the current season and so there's a limited time to experience them.

> If you know of any good information sources

How about any of the literally hundreds of similar posts here the past year or so? Or the dozen+ just in the past week?

Try seeing if they have other sizes in stock, then ask your doctor to adjust your prescription to match. Like if you normally take 10mg and they have 5s or 20s in stock, ask your doctor to rewrite the script from "one 10mg pill" to "two 5mg pills" or "one-half a 20mg pill".

I like Allen's Cameras.

> I'd ditch cable in an instant, if I can just get Channel 6. I need my Jeopardy!

Sail the high seas?

After releasing it, the more important question is "why was it in your laundry in the first place"? Do you have mice? If you have mice, it's likely the snake came in to eat the mice.

Also, in 2007 the road was one lane in each direction, now it's two lanes in each direction. Which is a bit ironic for /r/fuckcars.

With a single set range of noise filter, I worry about starting to lose hearing in that range. By using a combination of noises, most of them random, I reduce the overall sound level and hopefully reduce my risk of hearing loss.

Running a white noise generator has helped my sleep so much! I use the TMSoft app because it lets me generate my own mixes. My current favorite mix is a combination of heavy rain (to mask everyday noises), thunder (to help my sleeping brain ignore bass sounds like garbage trucks, vacuum cleaners, and lawn mowers), and a bit of pink noise to cover up any gaps. But yeah, try a white noise generator; it really can help.
