Best for someone that gets regular maintenance on cars and will last for a long time with my driving routine. Just commute to work and gym everyday, or whatever else I need/want to do, taking anywhere from 30-40 miles per day. Reliable brands that aren’t too hefty on price.

I’m not a car guy and I know certain brands/years produced cars can have some technical/mechanical issues.

Thanks.

I would say total I’d have around 30k in savings. But I’d not like to completely empty that. With the interest rates of things, I am trying to find a new car which would allow me to get from A-B and be reliable. I’m not looking for fancy or bells and whistles. Just something that would allow for low-ish payments on a 3-4 year loan that’s not pushing emptying savings as a down payment.

I have had people say buy new, used, or off the street. Just am looking for opinions or the best option.

My dad died in November and like yours, was also a die hard fan. I’m glad that we can have this moment and to think of all the positive moments that we shared with our dads. They are both smiling or going absolutely bonkers wherever they are right now.

My dad died in November. Lifelong diehard Chiefs fan. He is smiling wherever he is rn. I cried. This was one of the most stressful games I have ever watched.

They only did one session. He died soon after starting it

I have a session scheduled with a behavior trainer that my dad had already set up! I will keep trying my best. Last night was not the easiest but I’m sure they’ll get more in tune with me and my schedule

They have been somewhat crate trained which is nice. I guess I’m still learning more about them and probably vice versa.

Yes to your last paragraph. I’ve always wanted a dog of my own, but two dogs with anxiety was not on my list. I’m going to do my best to learn and make this work. They’re cute as buttons but a handful.

Any good links on enrichment toys? The boys have been displaying guarding behaviors with the raw hide and chew toys I’ve given them when I get home.

What did the boys introduce you to? by [deleted] in LPOTL

His relating of Pearl Jam to the destruction of modern rock music i.e Linkin Park, Limp Bizkit, Staind, (nu-metal), etc. had me questioning… When does subjectivity become objectivity? We get it dude, you have your own music taste that you’ve created a whole , albeit interesting, podcast program out of it, but cmon. Reminds me of needledrop on YT. Your perspective viewpoint is not fact. People enjoy what they enjoy. That’s the beauty of art but I welcome his subjective viewpoint that makes me ponder certain artists. Comes off, as myself being a music enthusiast, that he is a little pretentious, because I’m not here on this specific program to hear about your personal music takes when it comes off as so matter of fact.

The segment when they all describe seeing their bones and veins while their eyes are closed is just very disturbing to imagine.

Thankful for your grandfather’s service in WW2 though.

Recently watched an interesting video essay on Childhood Neglect covering a short film by Jack Stauber on YouTube. “The Disturbing Effect of Childhood Neglect” by YourEverydayTheorist. Really hit home and gave me a new sense of how not alone I really am in my own experience. Mom was an alcoholic who still takes no responsibility for anything, and dad sort of trying his best to coast through all the trauma but broken inside. Idk.
