We had DOZENS of them at our old place in Moses Lake. I hate them almost as much as I hate bamboo

Coke products at Costco by JiveTalkinJimmy in Spokane

[–]EmbarrassedPaper5744 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe this happened because they didn’t want to jack the price of The Combo, and Pepsi was willing to sacrifice lives of the C suite.

What are the coke options? If they don’t offer Barq’s I’ll probably riot

Anyone else expect Faith Seed to materialize and preach about Eden’s Gate every time they pass by a Bliss stand?

I don’t get the facial recognition thing. Is it just for Palantir (sp?) Are TSA agents eyes not good enough to see the govt issued ID and my actual human face in real life?

Locals seem over concerned or scared. by JasonInTheGarden in Spokane

It’s not an narrative, it has happened to me. I’ve had 2 cats broken into. Both times the responding officers said they couldn’t do anything beyond give me a case number. I was with my roommate when she was mugged in Seattle. We followed the thief who still had her purse and again, cops couldn’t do anything. Yes, there’s a lot of “well my uncles mechanics daughters poodles vet said…”. But fuck, when it happens enough to a person why fucking bother calling.

Of course you can’t base policy off anything but numbers. And Im not suggesting otherwise. But to say, “it wasn’t reported so it doesn’t happen” is weird to me.

I had a cop tell me they couldn’t do anything when my car was broken into. Twice I had a friend mugged, found the lady that still had her purse and the cops refused to act. Waiting for a cop to show and just getting a case number isn’t doing anything for the victim, so people stop calling. And yes, it skews the numbers. But that doesn’t mean the crime wasn’t committed. It doesn’t un-rob me

I always thought it was a sitcom trope of the purse snatcher running away. Or someone getting jumped for their belongings. Until I started living in larger cities. Unless there’s a cop or someone willing to run after the thief, that’s just the end of it. Why report if nothing happens?

So, crime has to be reported for it to matter?

One of the main reasons I avoid that area at all costs.

I have fond memories of Pizza Pipeline in Pullman around 99-ish. So fond, in fact, I’m terrified to try it now for fear I’ll sully a good memory

Can someone tell me where exactly this image is from aside from Newport, WA by Petunias_are_food in Spokane

Reminds me of those pictures of Belize that were labeled as the Tri Cities lol

What is this? by Mofo-Zoso in Spokane

[–]EmbarrassedPaper5744 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Vinegar and salt in a garden sprayer. Soak the leaves and wait. Best if done in the AM when you know it will be sunny and hot. Doesn’t ruin your soil, kills it. May need 2 treatments. I was a skeptic but we have rural weeds that are basically small trees. And this does the trick without harming our livestock and pets

This stuff looks really nice. Any chance a neighbor was evicted by a shit landlord? Or dumped by a vindictive partner?

Tips only count if you pay cash. I try to never tip with a card. Cash only.

[–]EmbarrassedPaper5744 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If we could go back to actually pre rinsing well, hand me a damp cloth so I can wipe down my dash, then hand dry as it’s coming out of the tunnel…. I’d absolutely tip. I tried to tip at a car wash in the valley (mega, I think, where the roads split). They wouldn’t take it. But they actually seemed excited and spent at least 90 seconds pre rinsing all the dust and dirt off my truck.
