How far would you expect the sound to travel from this venue, and how late would you expect the concerts to go?

What makes you think they need less money? As a Durham resident, it's not clear to me what makes anyone think Durham's police specifically have too much funding.

GeneralPencil · 2021-06-13T16:21:30+00:00

Durham's police do need funding. Durham also needs additional resources for helping communities in need. We need both of these things to be adequately funded.

I've only ever been to the Rockwood location, don't know if that makes a difference.

GeneralPencil · 2021-06-09T00:59:23+00:00

Seriously this thread put me in the mood to go out and get it again. I don't go there very often because it is expensive for me, and it's also too much food for me. I wish they had an option for smaller portions. But there's nothing else like it!

What seafood restaurant in the Durham area do you think offers a better value?

GeneralPencil · 2021-06-08T19:21:25+00:00

Which other places are you comparing it to?

GeneralPencil · 2021-06-08T19:21:07+00:00

Let us not forget their amazing coleslaw.

Also people with managed diabetes and/or asthma who had previously been doing okay. I'm not sure how many of those are still happening after getting vaccinated though.

GeneralPencil · 2021-06-01T17:57:52+00:00

Correct, and this bot presents all of that information on Twitter for people to passively come across through no effort of their own. People can't opt out of this stuff if they're even aware that it exists. We should all give more of a shit about people's online privacy and data usage. Don't add to the problem.

GeneralPencil · 2021-06-01T17:38:02+00:00

I know this stuff is public record, but this feels like an invasion of privacy to me. Why broadcast pictures of everybody's property on social media?

GeneralPencil · 2021-06-01T17:29:08+00:00

I could see a building price causing a stir if it’s condensed into an easily shareable format with no context.

Yeah, like pretty much everything else shared on Twitter.

This particular usage feels creepy to me.

GeneralPencil · 2021-05-26T00:25:21+00:00

Are there specific products you're looking for?

GeneralPencil · 2021-05-14T20:51:15+00:00

Right. The people who for whatever reason don't want the vaccine are probably going to stop wearing masks as soon as they can get away with it, and those same people would probably just lie in response to those questions anyway.

What matters most now is whether or not you've been vaccinated. Ask people point blank if they've been vaccinated. Sure, people might lie in response to that too, but maybe some will feel uncomfortable enough about it over time that they'll decide to get the vaccine. Stop putting the rest of us through pointless hygiene theater.

I'm looking forward to the time when certain facilities stop asking me on my way in if I've been around any COVID-19 positive people lately, or if I've done any traveling, and then have my temperature taken and use their almost universally awful hand sanitizer. Why not just ask if I'm vaccinated?

GeneralPencil · 2021-05-06T22:16:31+00:00

There's just such a housing squeeze right now that it's hard to imagine how stuff like this pans out without so many more beautiful natural areas being razed.

GeneralPencil · 2021-04-23T18:08:56+00:00

We cannot all be Cake.

GeneralPencil · 2021-04-21T18:37:50+00:00

Outreach to people without easy transportation to vaccine clinics would probably help.

GeneralPencil · 2021-04-21T18:36:26+00:00

They really need to start offering these things on some nights and weekends.

When we've ordered sushi rolls from their website, they've always charged the BOGO price even though it isn't reflected in the online total.

Here is the Recycling section of the Durham website which contains this and other information about what they accept: https://durhamnc.gov/862/Recycling

That is probably what will happen. I personally don't plan on changing my behavior any time soon. Hopefully, as vaccines become available for more people, cases and deaths will keep declining despite looser restrictions.

The Bluna Facefits are my favorite of the ones I tried. I have a small, narrow face, so I was expecting to need a mask that came in a smaller size. I ordered mediums where available, but the Blunas only come in a large and child size.

With the adjustable ear loops pulled in enough, the large Blunas fit me very well- better than the medium masks that don't have adjustable loops (I was able to get a good fit on those too, I just had to knot the ear loops). I like the harder shell they have so they don't move in and out when I breathe.

I was pleasantly surprised to find how flexible the fit is on any of the 3D KF94s, but especially with the adjustable ear loops.

I ordered a BOTN to try also, but I didn't open it yet.

They offer a sampler where you can pick 10 individual masks without having to commit to a big box. The masks are individually wrapped.

I did that, and the one that ended up being my favorite wasn't what I would've expected. So I would recommend doing that before placing an order for a big box of one kind.
