BIG LOTS Locations

Hi, can I just have people say they understand this cause I feel like it's not something a lot of people around me understand. Constantly getting the "you're Filipino? I thought you were Mexican. You don't look Filipino" and "is Filipino even Asian?" comments have been getting me down lately cause I care a lot about my culture, and that should be enough- but even getting excluded from other family kind of is a downer. Or people don't care to understand why I care about it. Maybe it shouldn't be a big deal, I just want to belong is all.

Made it since I wanted to create comics with my friends, but real-time collaboration has several issues. A lot of us love procreate, but its only available on iPad. Some of us use Adobe software, but all of us know just how bad its gotten with Adobe lately and there's almost no alternative. So, I made somet...

Sometimes, I wonder how far my understanding will take me. It's my 18th bday soon, and we're celebrating by having a debut. I live in the Philippines, a country where turning 18 is a pretty big deal. Out of us 4 daughters, I'm the only one who will be having a debut. I've always been hesitant about it, as I'm scared that the day might get ruined. In the end though, I went through with it in honor of my two sisters, but most importantly, for the little girl I used to be. Preparations have been going well. I got the theme I wanted since I was a kid, I got to rent a gown that was exactly my taste despite complications and financial struggles, and I got the whole thing...

Is anyone else seeing this? It feels like a "two-speed" market right now. Organic traffic is dying while these new AI channels are taking over. **The Data So Far:** * **Widespread Volatility:** Those Feb/March updates caused 40% traffic swings for a lot of us in just a week. * **The "Zero-Click" Crisis:** Mobile zero-click is at 77%. Google is basically answering everything now so nobody clicks through to our stores anymore. * **Shopping Ad Drops:** I’ve heard from retailers whose 7:1 ROAS plummeted to basically zero since the start of the year. * **Macro Factors:** Inflation is hitting hard. Daily shopping is down from 21% to 9%. **Does Google care?** Probably...

Hi! This is an oddly worded question but I couldn't think of a better way. I make a lot of online orders at Hot Topic since the sales are often better ​​and there is a lot more variety. The staff at my local store are friendly, but they also make a lot of passive aggressive comments like "we had this on the shelf and were surprised to see you ordered it online." And when they give that 25% off coupon that comes ​​with online order pick ups, they really pressure me to buy something in store with it. I'm not familiar with how they're paid - like do they have to make a certain number of sales, and if so, do online orders count towards that? Do they get incenti...

I will be coming to SMU law in the fall. I’ve seen lots of apartments recs in here and narrowed it down to the village or the victor which seem to offer two very different lifestyles. The village seems likes a great place to meet young people my age as well as having nice amenities/apartments. Could anybody speak on anything negative or positive about the village/is it rlly that great for meeting new people. The other place I’m looking at is The Victor in victory park. It seems like a true luxury building in the city. Is that area of Dallas walkable with good stores, bars, restaurants etc? or is it more so a manufactured neighborhood that doesn’t have much soul IE navy park in DC if ya...

This is a game I have been working on for 10 months as a solo developer, called "The Road Behind Us." It is an urban survival game inspired by I Am Legend and Fallout, where you get to play as the dog, and build a mobile base out of a semi truck trailer. Steam Page if anyone is interested: [https://store.steampowered.com/app/4433450/The\_Road\_Behind\_Us/](https://store.steampowered.com/app/4433450/The_Road_Behind_Us/) I am using assets, but as a solo developer they are just too valuable to not use.. even though sometimes they can be a big pain to get optimized and working properly. Even just integrating some of these things takes a lot of work I just wanted to share my progres...

I don’t know where to begin exactly… but I think it starts from school. I was in a girls’ convent school… the kind where a lot of girls came from really good, well-settled families. But at the same time, it was an aided school… so a lot of parents also sent their daughters there because it wasn’t too expensive. My parents fell in that category. Not because they didn’t value education… but because they didn’t really have the resources. And that’s the confusing part of my story. Because I didn’t come from a “bad” family at all. In fact, on paper, we were a very good family. But my father… he was different. He didn’t believe in generational wealth, didn’t care...

I have familiarized myself with the regulated Canada Online casinos and created a detailed list of 21 websites based on what is the most user friendly, easy to profit, safest and quickest for withdraws, and low/ no wagering requirements on bonuses so it isn't confusing, with the common safe games I use to churn bonuses. These sites can net you $600-750 profit depending on promotional periods. Although these are technically casino websites, I consider it counter gambling since we are taking the "bait" promotional money and running. House always wins long term so get in and get out. 5 of these sites are referral bonuses that benefit both of us, the rest are just regular signup ...

Curious how others in ENM handle this kind of situation. Over the past week, I’ve had an interaction develop at my gym with someone really cute. It started as a quick incidental moment, then turned into occasional eye contact and smiles over a few days. Today, we locked eyes mid-workout and she gave me a big smile. I was honestly a little taken aback as it felt a lot more intentional than anything previously. Close to the end of my workout, we crossed paths in the same area and she gave me another smile so this time I went over to talk to her. She had her headphones on, but took them off when she saw me walking over and we had a light little convo about our workouts. At one point I said...

I wanted to share my messages to Intercity Transit and their response about the changes meaning there will be no direct service from Evergreen/Division to downtown Olympia. My email to city council member Vanderpool (who was very supportive!): The upcoming Intercity Transit service redesign for bus routes will negatively impact those who live along the Division corridor in Northwest Olympia stretching to Evergreen, and make it a much lengthier trip to get to downtown. The trips will take significantly longer to anyone who needs service down Division to the Olympia Transit Center and back (for my address, this works out to 35 minutes on the new plan, versus 15 minutes on the previous pla...

Here is my current situation: I am 21F, and I was diagnosed with hEDS by my primary care in the fall, but haven't taken any steps to ask for referrals regarding that yet because I had other issues that needed to be addressed first. Here I am now, and I'm regretting not asking for an occupational therapy + podiatrist referral sooner. I'm unable to get a doctor's appointment until late July, but my hand pain and foot instability have gotten exponentially worse. I'm looking to relieve my pain and get stability support asap. I do a lot of computer work (work and school), and it has been difficult to type without pain. My hands can get swollen, achy at the joints, and s...

**Hey everyone,** I’m working on a dark fantasy action game called *Runeborne Arena*, and I recently made a short video where I play and explain one of the core mechanics (the ‘flame’ ability). I tried editing it in a more TikTok-style format, so I’d really like some feedback on both: * the game itself (combat feel, clarity, etc.) * and the video/edit (does it work for TikTok or is something off?) I’m still experimenting a lot with how to present the game, so any honest feedback helps a ton. If you’re curious and want to see more details, the Steam page is here: [https://store.steampowered.com/app/4548000/Runeborne\_Arena/?l=greek&beta=0](https://store.steampowered...

Hey folks. I'm located in zone 10a, Central Florida. I have a bunch of Albion and Seascape strawberries fruiting right now. The problem I have, which I did not have last year (only planted Albion last year), is that my strawberries are... unimpressive. Worse than store-bought unimpressive. Many are tiny, all of them regardless of size are incredibly bland, no real sweetness. I have given them homemade compost, some 6-6-6 fertilizer, elemental sulfur (my soil skews towards alkaline), and recently tried to add on some used chinchilla bedding. They are all mulched. Last year the strawberries were indescribably tasty. This year, I can barely convince my 2 year old to eat them. Here are so...
