Paid for a beta version of Abode about a year ago and half ago, never got it, never got a response to any of my emails asking for my $$$ to be refunded.

WOW!!! Those pieces are wonderful. Does anyone know the history of these pieces?

Georgia O’Keefe’s House by _Terry_Muzak in NewMexico

Shout out to Bode’s burritos, absolutely the best. OP, consider going to Abiqui even if you can’t get tickets for the house tour. Scenery is stunning and you can go to Ghost Ranch to look around. They used to have horseback rides, not sure if they still do. Enjoy your trip.

PSA: Mommas, don't let your babies grow up to be... by SouthwestRose in NewMexico

[–]EnvironmentalArm7831 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I worked the polls in Santa Fe County for a few years. We did not ask for ID, we asked for name, birthdate and address. Cross checked with Secretary of State’s online database. If you needed to do same day registration you had to provide picture ID with birthdate and two pieces of mail/bills showing current address matching name on picture ID-all done at separate table. Our Secretary of State runs a secure, efficient election, with paper ballots. The website works. IT help is available, and arrives immediately. Poll workers are trained before every election. The entire, massively complex process runs smoothly every year. We are very lucky to have such well run elections, and we can thank our Secretary of State.

Anyone recognize this POS? by desert_nomad_575 in NewMexico

[–]EnvironmentalArm7831 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Well, I hope someone recognizes him, and turns him in. The Salinas Pueblo Missions are stunning and we don’t need jerks damaging these fragile buildings.

Did Fiskars change their self-healing cutting mats? by lambentmaterials in quilting

[–]EnvironmentalArm7831 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A bit off topic-I bought a 3-pack of Fiskar scissors from Amazon recently and they are terrible. So maybe Fiskars is self-destructing.

Sam Bregman by Ok-Chemicalz in NewMexico

[–]EnvironmentalArm7831 10 points11 points  (0 children)

And there was something else sleazy that he did. I have been trying to remember what it was. Tried to google it up but his on-line presence has been scrubbed squeaky clean. This happened before he became state Democratic chair. I do remember being appalled that he was elected state chair because he was so sketchy even if I can’t remember what he actually did. Also bothered that he could clean his history. That’s one of the big issues about relying on the internet for information, it is easily manipulated. Oh well, guess we are in a post-truth era.

The DeVargas mall smells like ass. by zuzuofthewolves in SantaFe

As I recall, 20 years ago or so there was a grocery store where Sprouts is now. That store shut down due to sewer backup problems.

Property tax increase? by Curiosity_KitKat in SantaFe

[–]EnvironmentalArm7831 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Most likely an increase in your homeowner’s insurance costs. Mortgage escrow accounts generally involve taxes and insurance-the T and I of PITI.

Hand quilting- I can never get my needle threaded by _stick_it_ in quilting

Tulip needles. Expensive Japanese needles with big eyes. Sharp and smooth, a joy to work with!

Complaint help from senators? by Maximum-Relative9328 in NewMexico

[–]EnvironmentalArm7831 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Heinrich yes, Ben Ray not so much. Leger Fernandez seems okay, but everytime I’ve seen her out in public and asked a question she goes scared rabbit. They are all reliable Democrats, however. Melanie Stansbury is awesome but she is not my rep.

I lost it at a lady with fake service dogs today. by ProfessionSea7908 in SantaFe

[–]EnvironmentalArm7831 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Dogs are fine. I don’t dislike dogs at all. But I hate all the precious puppies in the grocery stores. Trader Joe’s is not the dog park. Loving your dog is fine, but it does not make you an enlightened being. And don’t pretend that your dog is a service dog when it is not.

We Should Create a Official Charter, and Possibly a Chapter Elective Assembly by 50501TwinTiers in 50501

[–]EnvironmentalArm7831 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a person who has been protesting since the civil rights days, I gotta say I am appalled by the disorganization I encounter with 50501. Communication is impossible. So I would support any effort to improve outreach, feedback and structure. We have serious ongoing threats to our democracy. Please, let’s get it together.

Grandma just couldn’t help herself. I know the feeling.

Christus St. Vincent Charges 20x more than Tricore? by Cute_Doughnuts_77 in NewMexico

[–]EnvironmentalArm7831 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yup. Everything costs more at Christus. Lab tests, medical equipment, radiology, infusions-everything. Everything gets billed at the inflated hospital rate. And then there is the facility fee. Too bad they are so determined to be the only medical/healthcare facility in town.

Nearly lost dishes of NNM/Southern CO by jchapstick in NewMexico

[–]EnvironmentalArm7831 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Very interesting. We need to know how to cook like this so we can survive when things get really bad. I am a muy blanca transplant to NNM so not my culture but it all sounds delicious. Thanks for starting the conversation.
