I think in the durability category, a 32 oz Nalgene is a winner. Fill it with ice, pour in the water and you’re good for hours. I prefer the narrow mouth but that does admittedly make getting ice in there a bit harder. The standard wide mouth is cake. The downside is it doesn’t stay nearly as cold as a Stanley or Yeti or whatever else is out there. But the pros are (1) notoriously indestructible (2) easy to clean (3) you can fill them up with stickers let other millennials with stickered up Nalgenes know that you‘re ready to mingle (they’re usually really attractive graphic designers or avid rock climbers)

the 32 oz with a narrow mouth is genuinely the best water bottle ever. cool people have nalgenes (i mean this in the sense that a lot of hot outdoorsy people (my type) own them)

when i was around 16 or so, my nalgene and i slide down the side of a mountain. i had a few dents in me; the water bottle didn’t.
plus, it helps me stay hydrated!

I finally caved and got a tiny Nalgene bottle on recommendation from several friends. Considering yet another water bottle felt excessive, but I was convinced by folks who said the small size was perfect for travel (small enough to fit in a purse or tote), and a serviceable flask in a pinch.

florinegrassenhopper riotgrrrl brendanooooo slowdazzle buck_mcgraw and indianjones — we did it. Not only did we successfully meet for drinks, but we also schemed the hostile takeover of this app from tyler tonight.
In all seriousness — weird that an app I downloaded in April would make genuinely want to drive back into Brooklyn during end of day traffic for a happy hour. Great app filled with great people.

I feel like there’s a special connectivity on this app that I haven’t felt in a long time, maybe since early 2010’s tumblr. The fact that you can’t promote yourself like IG is wonderful. The fact that there isn’t mass video content like Tik Tok is great. It’s not this monetized / paid sponsorship app. People are here because they want to be a part of something with nothing to gain besides friendship. Seeing the URL -> IRL meetups warms my heart so much (waiting for an NYC or Brooklyn meetup).
Thanks for your participation on this niche little app. I smile reading all the recs and all the comments and all the asks. Hope we’ll all be here for a long time.

I think a life rule for me is to surround myself with people who know more / are smarter / are cooler than me and just absorb their aura by listening / observing them. It’s made me the incredibly smart / cool person you all know and love.
I just never thought I’d feel the same way about URL friends. I’m constantly listening to the songs I see posted here, reading the articles, subbing to newsletters, and googling topics that get tossed onto the feed.
It’s nice to know you can become a more rounded person by just absorbing what your mutuals post on here. I’m going to sit on my couch, have a cocktail and digest my lovely feed. Happy Sunday!
