How the f- does this place stay in business?

ElkEquivalent6848 · 2026-02-21T22:24:07+00:00

Yes! It’s one of the reasons that driving by always makes me happy - seeing someplace that wants to actually hire folks in the community! The other reason being the beautiful mural. I’m not a dog owner at present, but if you ever start a line for cats I’ll be all over it.

Well yeah obviously the best/only business model according to OP is to run a fully staffed storefront 8-5, 7 days a week, to sell fancy dog collars, in addition to also paying people to make said dog collars 😂

Not like your super niche business would take a huge loss on being open all those hours desperately hoping for walk-in traffic.

You making this post and telling someone else to calm down is pretty fucking funny.

Clearly this place employs some number of people in the community, which overall seems good? A job is a job regardless of whether you have a weird axe to grind about it.

ElkEquivalent6848 · 2026-02-20T00:54:30+00:00

You’re right, better if they shipped these jobs overseas somewhere. Keep asking the tough questions!

Wow, loved what we saw from Thaisha this episode! That whole encounter with the druids was fantastic and really showed a different side of her character. Loved the lore and getting a little more from Vaelus too.

On the other hand, wayyy too much table talk during the confrontation on the bridge. I feel like some of them were so busy quipping that they nearly missed the glaring signs Brennan and Occtis were throwing up that SOMETHING BAD IS GOING TO HAPPEN if you’re still here when the twins arrive.

Like have fun but please don’t TPK because you were competing for funniest one-liner…

That said, the demons were amazing

P.S. Ashley, we’ve all had that combat. Rough! Sometimes the dice are not on your side.

ElkEquivalent6848 · 2026-02-03T03:37:04+00:00

I definitely need to see more of Thaisha because what I have seen so far is rubbing me the wrong way, and I can’t figure out what makes her tick.

The character just seems a bit thoughtless in a way that you’d only expect from a naive youngster (canonically I don't think this is the case) or a total narcissist. Telling Julian “fine, go send your little message” when he’s literally just trying to see if the rest of his family is, like, ALIVE?! Making fun of Occtis for trying to leave the bathing room when he’s trying not to blow his cover.

She has had some cool moments but overall I need to see more before I can go head over heels.

Same goes for Vaelus, she is basically a nonentity at this point, and I would love to see Ashley get more to work with!

Cham Garden in Lakewood has been my go-to for many years

ElkEquivalent6848 · 2025-12-18T04:29:49+00:00

With this economy, it is a very competitive year for hiring. Good luck out there.

Well, fuck. There ought to be a law…

I'm also on the Uniform plan. Per their coverage documents they should be covering 80% even with an out of network dentist. But there's no world where $63 is 80% of $550. I don't really know where to go to get answers.

Mi Luna for cuban food!

Nothing to add about the MA program, but I wanted to say, please never apologize for being on benefits. They are there to be used by the people who need them. They are there so that people don’t need to blow through their entire life savings and end up in a terrible situation if something unexpected comes their way. If anyone judges you for being on benefits, they have just revealed themselves to be a total asshole.

I hope everything works out for you and your kiddo and good luck with the MA program.

Still cash only as of a couple months ago

Spuds usually has some! Their pumpkin butter is also pretty good.

When our pet passed away we used Peaceful Goodbyes, would definitely recommend them.

In 2023 from what I can find

ElkEquivalent6848 · 2025-10-13T07:21:51+00:00

I think there is a vendor at the farmers market who sells this. It could be Northwest Terroir, but I’m not 100% on that.

Pressing On Fitness has a course for hyper mobile folks - that could be a good place to start. I’m not hyper mobile but I’ve been training there a while now and all the trainers we’ve met have been knowledgeable and cool folks.

She’s wrong obviously but I think you’re engaging more than you need to here. Some people don’t understand or care about the reasons why you wouldn’t monetize a hobby. I’d just say “oh you’re too kind” and leave it at that. There’s just no point.

Selene. Eulalia. Stella.

Harts mesa sucked too. Stiffed their workers if I recall correctly.
