Anyone have tea on her? Big Law influencer, posts a lot of designer stuff and constantly talks about how much she loves work but somehow she’s also taking weeks and weeks of vacation each year (which I just find unusual as an older Big Law associate, even putting aside the questionable move to become an influencer in this career…).

Are they competitive, do they push a fast pace, is it a sausage fest? I’m coming back from a decade hiatus from running / marathoning in my late teens / early 20s and want to run socially again but don’t want a club with only dudes or super fast folks generally

Allie A. has an utterly mysterious lack of muscle tone for someone allegedly doing corepower and running 10 hours a day (I know some of it’s genetic but it smells like underfueling)

Lauren Wickham also has a mysterious lack of muscle tone for how obsessively she works out at 5AM

I at least admire Hauskris for committing to building muscle but her recent “cut to see abs” plus the intense amount of aesthetic work she gets done (especially as a chick still in her 20s!) is unrelatable. Something about her always reminds me that deep down she hails from Utah (Real Housewives core)

I respect the work Laureise puts in but cannot stand her (not her problem, idk why she rubs me so wrong)

Are there any other SF influencers who focus on some kind, any kind of fitness who don’t seem to have raging orthorexia or an ED?

Hello! I also posted this on the Discord but posting here as well.

This is extremellyyy far in the future but Brandi Carlile is gonna be at the Stanford amphitheater on Saturday, September 19 and she’s a bucket list concert for me. Tickets are going fast but none of my friends in town are Brandi Carlile people, so if anyone wants to go but also doesn’t want to go alone, lmk!! For reference I’m early 30s in SF, happy to DM or message if you’re wondering “who is this person I’m potentially going to a concert with.”

Note: it’s possible to buy tickets in clusters of 2-4 in the upper amphitheater, which can be a fun more casual experience (I did that with friends for Haim in a different city and had a blast) but I’m also down to ball out on closer seats.

I’m an attorney (and woman) getting into my early 30s — am from California, went to the East Coast for a decade, then returned a few years ago. It’s possible that an opportunity may be coming up for me to move to Chicago. I dated/was engaged to a midwesterner for much of my 20s so I know and love the midwest (I can do winter).

I am curious how Chicago dating has been treating the later 20s/early 30s ladies; specifically, I am a practicing Catholic so that’s a pretty high priority for me with men, and my area in California hasn’t had a lot of great options.

Around 30F. I’m from the Bay but left for college/work/grad school and lived in a bunch of places before returning a couple years ago to San Francisco.

I am well aware of the grass is greener phenomena, but as I lie here in a hotel in a different major city after going out to dinner/a bar, I’m struck by the impression that I genuinely don’t know if I’ll ever find a really good long term relationship in the Bay Area. I’m well educated, well paid, fairly conventionally attractive, observantly Christian/Catholic, overall politically moderate (but not a Trump fan) — overall normal. I’ve been in a long term relationship and engaged before (I ended that relationship — there were some fundamental incompatibilities — but the point is that I have some perspective on relationships).

I’ve been traveling to other cities (DC, Chicago, Austin) recently for family/friends’ events and work trips, and in these other cities, I actually get approached and asked out at bars or cafes by men who seem relatively handsome, wholesome and nice.

San Francisco feels… different. I’m busy with work and hobbies and not at bars constantly but the amount of male attention just feels like night and day. I don’t know if it’s a me problem or if I look too “Republican” for the Bay, or what the issue is, but the difference feels pronounced. I’m not currently on the apps but I felt the difference there as well.

Everyone says that the Bay has a great ratio for straight ladies — am I alone in this feeling like the ratio doesn’t bear out in reality? It’s gotten to the point that I’m toying with the idea of asking my employer to let me move to a different city.
