Orange grabber thing? Two rubber pads and two hinge points, hand grip and a hanging hole, maybe?
I’m clearly my MIL’s favorite, so I often get strange “gifts” but she outdid herself this year. We can’t figure out what this could possibly be used for. It was wrapped individually, is lightweight plastic. submitted by /u/chlsstns [link] [comments]
What business problem cost you more time than expected?

Anyone regret outsourcing IT instead of keeping it in-house?
We’re a small business and seriously thinking about outsourcing IT. Right now we handle everything ourselves and it’s getting exhausting. That said, I keep wondering if anyone actually regrets switching to an MSP. Did it ever feel slower, more expensive, or harder to deal with than just having someone in-house? Curious to hear the good…

Big recreational facilities catered for hide and seek and tag
Idk how these dont exist yet. There should be big rooms that are themed like escape rooms, such as horror, or maybe even custom and there are secret entrances/safe traps, and a bunch of friends can just play hide and seek in it. Add a soundtrack and lights and this is a lucrative idea. Maybe…

What are these cotton-ball-sized dried powdery items with minimal smell?
Found in a bowl (part of my kitchen set of bowls), and the bowl was on top of a cabinet in my bathroom. I rent an apartment that’s a half-flight down from a single family house owned and inhabited by my landlords. On the rarest of occasions they come down when I’m at work because…
Legacy on the line
The court pulsed beneath Jordan Pierce’s sneakers like a living thing, each bounce matching the rhythm of her heart.

With 56 seconds left, her…

UPDATE: I actually built the app to remember which products “worked” (and it’s 100% private/offline) — Looking for 10 Beta Testers!
Hi everyone, Last week, I posted here asking if anyone else struggled with remembering which nose sprays, supplements, or skincare products actually worked for them. Here’s the link to the post: https://www.reddit.com/r/Business_Ideas/comments/1pny9mu/is_this_useful_to_someone/ The feedback was great, and it turns out I wasn’t the only one guessing at the store! I decided to stop guessing and…

Morning pages, not mourning pages.
I started the morning pages a couple of decades ago, when I was a kid.🤓. Writing those three pages each morning without editing or judgment became pre-editing for me. My first year, it was disconcerting to notice all the complaining I did. Everything was a pebble in my shoe. I stopped the “mourning” and started…
Cheaper writing courses?
Hallo, I’ve decided I’d like to leave my hometown and attend a creative writing course in person. My favourite genre is creative non-fiction and I’m also interested in scripts for film or TV. However I really dislike and struggle with formal academic essays and also I just can’t afford an undergraduate or masters degree in…

What is this painted wooden game or thing (?), which seems to be a commentary on gender roles, that I found at an antique shop last year?
Can’t figure out what this thing from a local vintage shop is let alone what the joke is. Seems like a gag gift for newlyweds or something … but … what? The longer I stare at it the less I get what the joke could be. Are they talking to each other? Describing themselves? Reflecting…

The Girl She Never Got To Be
Adventure that once sparkled in her eyes, Now fades beneath the tears she cries. A heart once filled with hope and pride, Now washed away in sorrow’s tide.
