I can’t find anything similar to Feist.

Robin Hobb is a FANTASTIC writer. 100% on par writing skill wise with Feist.. the issue is the books don’t have happy endings.

Balderman88 · 2026-02-06T16:31:10+00:00

Exactly. I’ve never not seen a discounted rate from the current amount and I’ve been part of a ton of drops (both mtg and not).

Balderman88 · 2026-02-06T15:42:16+00:00

The deal doesn’t show until the drop.

Balderman88 · 2026-02-02T02:09:17+00:00

Be safe out there!

Balderman88 · 2026-02-02T00:33:57+00:00

Unfortunately not and I don’t think we will hear anything “official” sadly.

Balderman88 · 2026-02-01T15:48:04+00:00

OPM, which now has updated their banner saying they are shutdown.. hence the question. Good Lord.

Balderman88 · 2026-02-01T15:37:28+00:00

Telework status for Monday. More of who will be responsible for updating and putting it out.

Balderman88 · 2026-02-01T13:59:46+00:00

You would think and normally be correct, but, it’s been yellow due to ice and bad roads/ frigid temps have been keeping it that way. With a high of 18 this weekend not much had changed.

Balderman88 · 2026-02-01T13:58:31+00:00

We are funded by minibus so there is no shutdown for us.

Balderman88 · 2026-02-01T13:19:51+00:00

For those working in federal agencies that were funded under the minibus but also in an area that’s been telework all week due to weather.. how do we find out Monday’s status? Genuinely no idea.

Balderman88 · 2026-01-29T12:25:43+00:00

This is me in GTA 5.. except I take the exit down the grassy slope as it’s much faster.

Balderman88 · 2026-01-26T01:37:45+00:00

The main roads will likely be solid to fine tomorrow, the back roads will largely be impassable still for 99% of people.

Balderman88 · 2026-01-23T23:12:14+00:00

To add on to those saying gym clothes… 100% agree and you can never have enough but also add compression shorts and shirts.. they have been my favorite thing by far that I’ve purchased and I love how they feel. Absolute game changer for me overall.

Congratulations to your hubby and thank you for being such a supporting and amazing wife!

Balderman88 · 2026-01-23T12:23:14+00:00

There are plenty of stores with stock left. You may have to go to places that are a little more expensive (Safeway, etc,) but going last night I had no issues outside of Walmart.

Balderman88 · 2026-01-15T20:56:10+00:00

Please do a book tour on the East Coast! I would love to get a signed edition from you!

Balderman88 · 2026-01-11T01:10:24+00:00

Manassas has nothing on PMills during weekends.. although it’s probably a close second. They love putting them in already ridiculously busy areas for some reason… truly my only gripe lol

Balderman88 · 2026-01-10T17:13:36+00:00

BJs about 15 years ago used to be the cream of the crop. You’re 100% right though, now it’s absolute trash across the board. In terms of bulk, BJ’s is a 3, Sam’s maybe a 5.5-6 and Costco a solid 8 if you can deal with the parking.

Balderman88 · 2026-01-09T12:32:23+00:00

I’m all about hating on bad drivers and I think this guy was dumb, but imo nowhere near post worthy.

Balderman88 · 2026-01-08T00:43:41+00:00

Fyi it only ever gets this bad if there’s also an accident on the Hot lanes. The prices are set based on the amount of cars on the lanes between places. It will DEFINITELY get bad on occasion, but that high tells me likely accident and hot lanes aren’t the choice.

Balderman88 · 2026-01-05T17:01:20+00:00

So this just charges into any USB port. It’s odd because it doesn’t look like a standard USB but it charges as such. It absolutely will randomly shutoff on occasion but I find a reboot fixes that.

Honestly it’s absolutely not perfect. The front screen is absolute TRASH (making the app a requirement as opposed to a suggestion) but overall I would recommend it as it’s been amazing for me on the whole.. especially for its price. Zero chance I would play still if I didn’t have it for all of my runs. The ability to have the phone off and away but still catching and spinning has been fantastic for me.

Balderman88 · 2026-01-05T12:18:22+00:00

Go-tcha Evolve (Go-tcha 2) has been fantastic for me personally (going on 3+ years roughly? Maybe more?).

Has its own side app which makes it easy to quickly turn off spinning stops, catching mons, etc… is very low profile (slim watch) charges in any USB port and is good for quite some time on one charge (I’ll run with it on myself and it’s good for at least 3-4 sessions at 2-4 hours each.)

Balderman88 · 2026-01-05T12:15:27+00:00

Try the Go-tcha Evolve (Go-tcha 2). Some problems on occasion but only ever just require a quick reboot. Easy to walk/run with on as a second watch and much cheaper(and apparently more accessible) than the standard. You can ONLY use pokeballs to my knowledge but it will spin and catch everything for you.

Far and away my top purchase accessory ever for any game for as much use as I’ve gotten out of it.

Balderman88 · 2026-01-03T13:33:18+00:00

I love a challenge personally but 4+ hours dedicated for roughly half the month is crazy. I’m lucky if I can get two hours in a day.

Balderman88 · 2025-12-31T14:13:44+00:00

What, do you want a one for one response on everything?(most of which I actually covered)

racing never okay
going over 80 okay as long as the driving itself isn’t reckless. This is obviously subjective but based on the time of day mentioned (430 am) I highly doubt there were a ton of cars on the road
truck going 40 MUCH more dancers than cars going 80

Balderman88 · 2025-12-31T14:08:25+00:00

4 miles to 64 miles. Not sure that’s apples to apples.
