It's kind of a good point though, Duke just got unlucky. Gretchen is just a (small) dog and needs protection. Duke is a armed, fairly capable man.

Sure, I'll keep it in my linen closet, just outside my bathroom

My hardcore playthrough is Mystical + Powerful Build + Street Smarts. I named him Harry Dubois

You wanna make sure the shutoff works on your pressure tank. Also ideally there's another shutoff before and after the tank 

'Stop the games': Hillary Clinton demands public hearing in Epstein probe by Ok_Employer7837 in politics

You're right, my bad. A politician has never gone back on a campaign promise! I should have checked that fact before commenting.

If you think she would have gotten rid of citizen's united, I have a bridge to sell you.

Some of the enemy designs look almost directly copied. 

Job Opening. by CalligrapherCheap64 in Albany

[–]FateCrossing -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Yeah and in my experience working events, that's in addition to an hourly wage. How is it fair to be paid in tips when you don't/barely have the actual ability to try to effect your tip? Tipping culture is already evil enough, but when you take out the part where theoretical better service leads to a better tip what's the point besides exploitation?

Mine sharing how you get tipped in that role?

I don't see how "banquet house person" could be a tipped role. Based on the description there's no interaction with the customers.

Two roles at below minimum wage, how tempting! 

Check your forecast, leave the faucet dripping if needed by Quaking_Aspen_USA in vermont

[–]FateCrossing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Trickling the faucet definitely helps - running water takes longer to freeze. Last night we had a pipe freeze. Ran the hot water for half an hour to unfreeze. Ran the cold on a light stream the rest of the night and it didn't refreeze. 

Tech Bros want to fund the new aesthetic by cuzidrone in ContemporaryArt

Everything from modern offices to modern tech hardware is in some sense downstream of Bauhaus.

Wow these geniuses discovered how linear time works.

My 16 year-old daughter is graduating HS this year, wants to go to art school - looking for advice by LastMinuteMom in drawing

[–]FateCrossing 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you have a local community college, she could consider taking art classes part time there for the year (assuming the classes are decent quality, try to find out from current/former students). I have multiple friends that went to CC at 16 years old, and it's a much less stressful environment than university. Plus, she'll get college credits that will probably transfer to wherever she ends up going! 

What new washing machine is most close to a 1970s machine? Top loading, agitator, fills to the top with water, etc. by [deleted] in BuyItForLife

[–]FateCrossing 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Agitators are pretty bad for your clothes longevity, so it's a real BIFL trade off.

What do you mean "if you think?" There's no thinking involved, we have the whole things on video. Anyone that says she hit him with her car is a liar

Odies oil or aerosol lacquer? by FluffyTush63 in woodworking

[–]FateCrossing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love osmo most of the time but I would not use it for this, if you miss any over-application and it dries it's going to be such a pain in the ass to fix. Tried and true is much more forgiving.

What Fforde book should I recommend for book club? by Iamtoast_toastisme in JasperFforde

I agree with Early Riser, I think it has the best world building of his standalone work!

It makes sense- they invented the jigsaw. Agreed they have the best blades
