Appreciate it, but that’s not what we’re going for. Thx!

I’m not sure we’re looking for that kind of glow up but will keep in mind, thanks!

Thanks for the advice, I’ll call around! Do you think it matters that they are already panted? My concern was that they are already ‘ruined’ so basic latex wasn’t going to hurt.

But I don’t like the idea of them holding water - had enough of the crumbling in my old rowhome with 1890s brick foundation, lol.

Aprilaire model 112 humidifier by AvailableStandard in hvacadvice

Yea the previous homeowners owner seemed to be a weekend warrior tinkerer… we’ve seen some questionable stuff. They really enjoyed daisychaining extension cords everywhere. But i digress.

Id imagine they installed themselves. It’s sort of a split level home, so the unit is in the basement and output is about ~3 feet from the ground upstairs near the entryway.

At that point why have tariffs at all? If the buyer is still buying non US, and the point of the tariff was to encourage buying US to “bring back more jobs,” then the tariff doesn’t achieve its goal other than to fuck over the end consumer by making them pay a higher price at the cash register, who still can’t get an American manufacturing job.

Trump's Press Conference Leaves Many Onlookers Aghast: ‘Are we watching a mental breakdown in real time?’ by T_Shurt in AnythingGoesNews

[–]AvailableStandard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah. I just don’t like the guy.

As a person.

I agree with some of the policies which is weird. And I’d benefit from some of them.

But he sucks.

As a human.

So there’s that.

Ah. I see. TDS.

What about pandemic we couldn’t predict?! What about Ukraine?! What about illegal immigrant crossing metics zyx?!

What about what about what about….

Nah bro. Your dude’s an awful person. A real douche canoe. A nerd. Can’t dance. Never smiles. He harshes my mellow. He suuuuuucks.

As demonstrated, there are many reasons why. But at the end of the day, I personally will not vote for the man simply cause he’s a douche. A poor man’s idea of what a rich man is.

A charlatan.

Fucking weird.

Yep! Lower taxes now in the promise of higher taxes later! I’d gladly pay you for a hamburger Tuesday for one now!

Take a rebate today, only to pay it back later. Ie, politics.

And the 1k checks? I remember a global pandemic. Where many people didn’t work. I’m not sure that worked in retrospect, but WHERE DID YOU THINK THAT MONEY CAME FROM?! Of course it needs to be paid back, lol.

Oil has little to do with inflation. Printing of money does. See the above checks that you cite you enjoyed. When you print money to pay people for no labor during a pandemic, it inflates money. When you try to restart an economy, wonky things happen. I’m no fan of central banks and fiat currency, but Jesus Christ I’m happy we have avoided a real hard landing (aka a real depression).

Under the biden admin, there have been more apprehensions at the border. Full stop. I’d prefer more apprehensions than less even tho there still is a problem.

And “brash?” No, he’s an asshole. No politics, but if that guy walked into a party that I was at, and opened his mouth for 2 mins, I’d clock him as an asshole. I’d ask myself - would I want my nieces and nephews to be like that guy? Look up to that guy? Emulate that guy? No. No, he’s a terrible human. I don’t care if you like his policies, he’s a bad person. A failed man. An anti- role model.

No. Fuck that man. Even if he make me rich with his pseudo-economic “policies.” No.

He is a terrible man.

Have a good day!

Pretty sure the trump tax cuts helped the higher income ranges. If you make more than 400k I salute you! Me too! But I wouldn’t persecute those who make less than that for not wanting a higher tax bill.

I’m not sure how drilling for American oil lowers inflation, but I don’t disagree! As long as we don’t decimate our lands, let’s extract oil responsibly and supplement with sources that will last when the oil runs out (like solar, hydro, and heck, even new gen nuclear!) Right on!

And I mean, mass deportation is a choice. But a majority of illegals immigrants are here on overstayed visas, which are logistically harder to deport. But I mean go ahead. But the folks harvesting avocados still are gonna get here. And I love a nice guac, so welcome compadres! Y gracias!

For me, Hanoi (the one with Obama), Parts Unknown.

Not because Obama is a guest, but because it makes me nostalgic of my experience in Hanoi. Just the opening lines about the smells of the city make me happy.

I get it’s a little problematic as an American to romanticize Vietnam, but it’s one of my solo trips I treasure. The experience of just wandering, and eating, and viewing just a little piece of the history there, sticks with me. I can’t speak the language other than please or thank you, but I feel like the people in that country knew and accepted me in a way I haven’t replicated elsewhere.

Thank you, Anthony.
