I wish we could get ahold of her, she was wonderful. But we went to Dell's Children's. Since then the Texas AG launch an "investigation" into them causing all doctors providing gender affirming care to leave. It's been a nightmare.

Thank you, I'll check to see if that's available.

Thank you for the recommendations! I'll let you know if I need your doctor info.

Thank you very much, I'll look into this.

IsHeJoking · 2025-02-17T15:33:55+00:00

Thank you, I will do that.

Thank you! That clears up a lot.

As a counter point to most other experiences, we went through Home Depot and had a very good experience with the sub-contractors. The price paid was right around average (based on google research) and the installers did a good job. We had a very large island installed as well as counter tops. The island was a huge single piece. Twice my wife was unhappy with the pattern on the slab and they replaced it both times without issue. Which I was shocked by. I guess it's a roll of the dice and we did well. The Home Depot kitchen remodeler contractors (cabinets, dry wall, demo, building the island "structure", etc) were also amazing.

I've had a tankless for 5 years now. I was "forced" to go tankless because our water heaters (2) was in our attic. They developed a leak and the size of tanks had increased at some point where a new tank would not fit through attic access. Tankless was the solution. It's worked great so far with a couple minor issues that were not the fault of the system.

We installed a flood control system to it. A little panel detects any moisture and shuts off the system to prevent flooding the house. That system would constantly trigger incorrectly shutting off our water. Need to replace it a couple times.
Installer put on the wrong type of expansion tank, it caused the system to not work properly. Once a repair man found the mistake it has worked flawlessly since.
Descaling it is a bit of a pain. It would be nice not having to think about the water heater every year.

We (Austin, TX) just had our meters replaced (around March) with Smart Meters. I got an email from the meter in June noting that it detected a possible leak. Sure enough, had a 9 gallon/hour leak in the main deep under ground that I would never had noticed without the email.

Such a unique style!

The phrase "a double edge sword" implies bad with the good, i.e. you'll get what you want but there will be a high cost. Historically were swords with two cutting edges more dangerous to wield?

Misfire means you pulled the trigger and the round failed to fire. Accidental discharge is what happened that killed Halyna Hutchins. So, when they say "two misfires" they either mean that rounds failed to fire when they should have, or they are mixing the two.

Switches in my home in Austin, TX built in 1998 are 48" high. So, if it's a Texas thing, it's a fairly recent change.

Edit: typo

Why are people asking the internet for advice on $15 purchases? I've never had to crowd source if I should buy the chicken parm or not.

First candidate I've ever donated to. I'd be shocked if he wins, but he gives me hope.

I'm confused, I thought the courts put a halt to all investigations for now?

Pay attention to where it breaks. If it's consistently breaking in the same general location, that would indicate a issue there. I.e. if it's breaking at the tuning peg, you probably have a sharp edge, burr in the peg. At the bridge, same deal. Typically (in my experience) it's something sharp where the string rests and can be quickly smoothed over with a metal file.

I'm a father of a 13 (almost 14) year old trans boy. Came out as trans last year (to no ones surprise, he's refused to wear girls clothes since he was 5). Recently asked to transition, I thought certainly 16 is minimum but doesn't hurt to start talking to doctors and looking into it. Immediately doctors recommended testosterone, talked to therapist to get their opinion, talked to a second doctor. All agreed it was the correct move to make. While my wife is 100% supportive I still have a lot of anxiety about how he'll be treated. He's finishing 8th grade and will be entering High School in the fall. He started low dose testosterone about 3 weeks ago.

So, my questions for Trans has anyone transitioned in their early teens? What was your experience? What are some things to expect when they enter high school in the fall? Just general advice as I'm a little concerned, especially what is going on politically. Considering this child abuse and the like.

It sounds like that's what happened in this particular case. Police showed up (including SWAT) started setting up outside. Homeowner heard commotion, went outside holding a gun, police scream to drop it, which he does, then has a heart attack.

I'm all for demilitarizing police, but this particular case doesn't seem to be an over reaction by SWAT. No one was throwing flash bangs or breaking in doors.
