I've heard of gyms adding reformer pilates classes and I wondered how well that'd work, since you need a trained pilates instructor and can't/shouldn't have any old gym instructor fill in. I can see an advantage with a gym for mat pilates though since almost all pilates studios near me are reformer only.

I was reading on another sub where a person was struggling with yoga as a beginner and wanted more instruction and many people recommended going to yoga studios rather than gym yoga classes.

It got me thinking - what experiences have you had in taking group classes at gyms vs specialized studios? In terms of availability, instruction quality, safety, price, etc.

I'm thinking of places like OrangeTheory, Spin Class studios, PureBarre, etc. When are they worth it or not worth it to you? ​Has anyone switched from a gym membership to one of these or vice versa or do you do both?

A microwave is just a tool. It doesn't mean you're living off of TV dinners. It can be used to more quickly prep a number of ingredients when cooking. It's quicker and more convenient for reheating leftovers. If you don't have the counter space and don't feel you need one, more power to ya, but I can't stand people who act like it's a virtue to not own a microwave.

It's the same vibes as people who brag about not owning a TV

Our office just did a big redesign with more greenery (and an open floorplan, because fuck us I guess) and I wonder if I could get away with staging bland corporate centerpieces in conference rooms. Flowers would look odd, but maybe a succulent arrangement or wax fruit would be sufficiently sterile.

Like, who would know?

I hate how many people frame the photo so their dog is in the background while showing off the food they made.

I hate the disingenuous "oh golly gee look who snuck into the shot" when it's an automatic karma booster to stage the pic that way

Then every single comment will be some variation of "updoot for doggo" or "did the good boy in the back get any?"
