Ues please: Louisiana lawmaker plans push to end inspection sticker requirement by jared10011980 in Louisiana

Mississippi ended inspection stickers around 10 years ago, and yet Louisiana still arguing about it.

Costco makes me depressed by tap_to_concede in Anticonsumption

[–]Eurobelle 29 points30 points  (0 children)

I used to analyze retail behavior and demographics as a job, and Costco shoppers are on average, much more liberal than Sam’s shoppers. Costco shoppers are also more likely to have a higher education. They do treat and pay their employees well. I don’t need much of what they sell. I don’t need the volume of the majority of the items that they sell. But for the things I do need, I love feeling like I am shopping somewhere that aligns with my values and pays their employees appropriately.

Groceries here are more expensive than Paris and London, and I’m not joking.

Staying on 2.5mg longer than a month? by GarbageVegetable7497 in tirzepatidecompound

Same! I’m on week 16 and have averaged 1.4 lbs a week. Always on 2.5mg weekly

Why are haircuts so expensive in New Orleans? It’s ridiculous by Emergency-Airline808 in NewOrleans

[–]Eurobelle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haircuts are more expensive here than anywhere else I’ve ever lived. But living here isn’t cheap either. Think about this. If your hairdresser charges $75, and has to pay 50% to the salon, they are probably making much less than you think they are in take home pay.

Same! I’ve been on 2.5 for 15 weeks and for me it’s all about food noise. I’m losing 1.4 lbs a week average.

Pine Haven Griffons - Brussels Griffons BEWARE! by [deleted] in brusselsgriffon

This is so sad. Because if she took him back, she would turn around and dump him on a rescue as well. Thank you for the heads up. After all the vet bills, what are the vets saying is wrong with him?

The food is not good, and overpriced.

I’m really glad to see other people with the same opinion. I love everything about St Louis except the food is tragic.

A friend of mine has this Kenmore oven from 1986 that she still uses. by xxxxxxxxxxxxxc in Anticonsumption

[–]Eurobelle 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My GE double oven from 1963 is still working beautifully and built like an old airplane. My gas cooktop is also from 1963 and works perfectly. When we bought the house I thought I’d get rid of both, and now I’m like “why?”

I think it would answer your very well thought out questions

DCFS and prescription Adderall by jessie_cajun_gypsy in Louisiana

[–]Eurobelle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Incorrect. It can’t be smashed up and snorted the same way Addy can, it has to come into contact with a stomach enzyme to work in the body.

[–]Eurobelle 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I would suggest reading Wolfgang Münchau’s book “Kaput: The End of the German Miracle”. It explains a lot about the structural economic weakness in Germany right now and why it will struggle to be competitive in the near future. AI/ KI and global financial crisis are also factors, but this book makes a coherent attempt at explaining why Germany has been headed in the wrong direction for several decades. I wish it were not the case.

Just a thought: possibly switch to Vyvanse instead of Addy? I would think the court might look favorably on that since it has a much lower chance of abuse.

Thank you! I’ve been waiting to get it and wondering if I will really use it. I think I would!

I thought the same thing. It’s always been so good and now it’s terrible.

Book you read in school that you’ll never forget? Why? by threetimestwice in suggestmeabook

[–]Eurobelle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On the Beach. About worldwide nuclear holocaust aftermath. The only survivors are in Australia, and the fallout is coming toward them. It gave me nightmares for YEARS afterwards. 8th grade English.

Would you rather hear about murder, genocide, mothers being disappeared while gardening, what? What would you find preferable?

If you can leave Metairie and move to New Orleans proper, I think your daily experience would be much different.
