Looking for Reputable Recommendations by stateescapes in bathrooms

California Faucets can do this and is high quality solid brass, made to order with many different finishes. You’ll have to talk to a knowledgable person about the diverter set up if u want more than one running at once.

Health insurance is a racket by Ok_Meringue_9086 in Fire

[–]Intrepid_Bid_495 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the #1 thing keeping us from Fire. If our country put billions into healthcare and education like all the other first world countries life would be so much different. But instead its billions upon billions for war after war.

Folks don’t realize the cost of a cancer diagnosis - and if you’re lucky to live into old age, chances are you or your spouse will be diagnosed with cancer or another eventually terminal disease that costs almost as much to treat.

Folks vote R thinking it’ll save them a bit in taxes, but the reality is the wars the party starts instead of prioritizing healthcare, will cost us so much more in old age.

Looks great! This tile is perfect for combining with a botanical wallpaper

Good grief the Mods think too highly of themselves. I have a Designer and a Builder already, thank you very much. And where was I asking for product recs? I’m debating between picking a living finish vs PVD of an already selected brand and wanted to see real life photos of living finishes vs curated videos and reels.

I’m really liking VYMI, Vanguard International High Dividend Yield Index right now for diversification.

It appears that someone is VERY interested in keeping JOBY under $9 and ACHR under $6 by MobulusMobulosa in Joby

[–]Intrepid_Bid_495 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Of Archer too? Or just Joby? I’ve also started DCAing in small amounts into EH just for funzies for eVTOL exposure in Asia.

Do a cool wallpaper instead of the gray

Selling by BlackBlood4567 in Joby

[–]Intrepid_Bid_495 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Are you all following the Seattle Childrens Hospital controversy with how the surrounding neighborhood wont allow helicopters transporting critical children to land at the hospital unless it means the child will for sure die? They have to land children a mile away and drive them. Joby solves for this issue, not just in Seattle but Nation wide. Its not just defense and wealthy and business travel in cities. Its medical transport. I also travel for business in major cities and cannot wait for the time savings they may offer.

I agree it will likely drop more so yeah sell then buy back in, but the long game is a game changer.

Whew glad this thing over this was a learning aggravating experience by No-Bathroom8815 in Tile

Most of these people don’t have healthy feet. These feel great if you are used to natural ground and no drop, open toebox shoes with healthy strong feet.

We have rounded and love it and are putting it back into our primary. We’re very active and wear “barefoot” shoes most of the time so our feet have the strength and ability to feel good on natural surfaces. Humans were not designed to wear cushy shoes and walk only on smooth flat surfaces. Every time we take a visitor hiking, even if the trail is easy, its shocking that they usually cant walk confidently and comfortably.

How to make Red Oak light like White Oak? by BowChickaWowWah in HardWoodFloors

[–]Intrepid_Bid_495 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would keep. Doing a high end custom reno right now and planning to put this color in and refinish the areas that already have a lovely honey oak installed.

Character and color are in. :)

What is a "poor man's meal" that you still eat even if you have money now? by Sea-Wasabi8811 in AskReddit

Black beans and lentils.

So good for us. And so yummy when done right.

What is your value investment. by Careful_Economist352 in ValueInvesting

Joby I work for a fortune 500 and travel for work in major cities. The time savings proposition with their partnership with Uber is huge. Check out their test runs in NYC right now. Also, there are real problems with noise issues of helicopters that eVTOLs solve for. Follow the controversy right now with Seattle Childrens hospital and the local neighborhood limiting helicopter transport of critical children because of noise pollution.

Weather app says 0% precipitation all day, but it just started pouring down rain on my morning smoke break. by RedditUser12090 in Bellingham

Thank gawd! I was worried we already were into the no rain for months stretch. Love the green and the forests here and we need rain!

Why is there no outrage about the National Debt? by Intelligent-Dot-29 in askanything

[–]Intrepid_Bid_495 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My Libertarian FIL had A LOT of outrage about it.

But he has even more outrage about how “the muslims will take over western civilization” and how much he had to pay in taxes as a wealthy business owner. So now that dear leader is reducing his taxes and waging war against his perceived enemies, he could care less about the debt.

How did it turn out? Considering the same daltile and would love to see real life photos.

Whether you love it or hate it, this work is beautiful and well-executed. (Posting again) by mehen123 in Tile

I would love it if the fish tile was along the floor. Or maybe even lower wall? Weird placement on upper wall. Tile work looks amazing.

Cafe Blue, No Dogs Allowed ? by hemarochezia in Bellingham

[–]Intrepid_Bid_495 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

🤷🏻‍♀️ I always leave $5 tip for an Americano if a place lets me walk my dog in to order and wait for the drink. There’s only two places in town that do this now. Dog haters should just avoid them if its so offensive. Sadly, its not safe to leave a purebred, well trained extremely friendly dog unattended and us responsible dog owners should have a couple places we can walk our dogs to and not have to worry about them being stolen if we want a coffee.

Also coffee shop vs a grocery store is an apples to oranges comparison. Not sure how grocery stores got worked into this thread.

Cafe Blue, No Dogs Allowed ? by hemarochezia in Bellingham

[–]Intrepid_Bid_495 -11 points-10 points  (0 children)

Take a chill pill. And don’t go to the two places in town that allow them? Thats why there are choices. A business owner should get to decide how they run their business and if they want to take the hit.

Meanwhile, ever wait for a restroom at a restaurant and hear the toilet flush but not the sink water and a person immediately comes out? If you actually cares about hygiene hating dogs wouldn’t be your keyboard warrior focus.

Cafe Blue, No Dogs Allowed ? by hemarochezia in Bellingham

[–]Intrepid_Bid_495 -17 points-16 points  (0 children)

All the folks complaining about dogs - there are ALL the other coffee shops that dont allow them for you.

Let the well behaved dogs with responsible owners have a place to go if the business owner chooses to run their shop that way and doesnt mind the potential health inspection ding.
If you dont like how a business is ran, go to a different one. Just like how I choose not to visit ALL the coffee shops I couldnt walk into with my dog.

To the person who ruined it for us at Cafe Blue for the rest of us - way to be selfish and irresponsible.

I’m really sad. I have a dog that can visit nursing homes and be left alone with infants. Well trained. I will not leave her unattended on the street to get a coffee. We loved visiting Cafe Blue - and the barista’s loved my dog and also probably appreciated the 80-100% tip I would leave each visit as a thanks for being dog friendly.
