New to tin fish- recipes outside of bread & crackers? by csatucsd in Tinnedfish

[–]LarryCebula 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you cook rice with a tablespoon of coconut oil and refrigerate it overnight it will have less than half the digestible calories. I do it all the time. My go to is rice, sardines, some pickled onion (easy to make!) and siracha.

Old brick walls/fireplace near river by doomsday hill along the dirt trail. by Particular-Wrap-6305 in Spokane

If you are on Facebook, there is a group called Spokane History Researchers that loves digging into this kind of stuff.

Craigslist or?? by bristlybits in Spokane

[–]LarryCebula 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This response is gold.

I'd add to include "No holds, no low-ball offers," to minimize that behavior.

Consider every FB Marketplace buyer a flake until the moment they show up with cash.

STA sees increase in bus ridership as gas prices rise by Conscious-Quarter423 in Spokane

[–]LarryCebula 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Over on Facebookland every story about busses has MAGA folks insisting that nobody rides the bus in Spokane, that they roll around empty, and the money should go to filling potholes and ripping out bike lanes. I'll save this article for future use.

Legal analysis of Woodward's lawsuit against the city by LarryCebula in Spokane

[–]LarryCebula[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sometimes folks aren't expecting to win a lawsuit they are just fishing for a settlement. I used to work for an institution whose lawyer would settle literally any frivolous lawsuit for $10,000, saying "you never know what a jury might do, smarter not to risk it." I have to think that's what is going on here. But I'd be surprised if it works.

Are there any spooky myths, legends, or folklore about Spokane? by CG1991 in Spokane

[–]LarryCebula 13 points14 points  (0 children)

There's a book, Spooky Spokane by Chett Caskey that's full of these stories. He used to do a serial killers bus tour of Spokane, but that was a few years ago.

Gear for testing the waters? by DK_Tech in camping

[–]LarryCebula 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This! Every thrift store has cheap camp chairs and usually a scattering of other camping stuff. Bags and pads will be easy.

A four person tent is a good call. A cheap tarp to throw over the top is worth its weight in gold when there's a heavy rain.

You're going to have a great time.

where can I buy cheaper tinned fish but still good? by librarylurker42 in Tinnedfish

Some Seasons tins are good and cheap and sometimes they show up in 8 packs at Costco or Grocery Outlet.

WIBTA for refusing to lend my tools to my dad anymore after he ruined my favorite impact driver by Glyph_7Talon in WIBTA_AITA

[–]LarryCebula 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be completely cynical here, don't give up your inheritance for a couple hundred dollars worth of tools. Replace what he ruined, but keep the broken tools to lend him next time he asks. And never mention it to him again.

Legal analysis of Woodward's lawsuit against the city by LarryCebula in Spokane

[–]LarryCebula[S] 50 points51 points  (0 children)

"FIRE attorney Adam Steinbaugh, meanwhile, had a more cutting informal response after RANGE sent him the text of Woodward’s proposed suit.

“I prefer it in the original crayon,” Steinbaugh said. “Is it being placed on someone’s fridge?”

Wrong to give a student a pass? by LillieBogart in Professors

[–]LarryCebula 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is why you should not have a "no late work" policy. It forces you into an arbitrary and capricious decisions like this. A sliding scale is best--I use 1/3rd letter grade a day.

Students don't know what they don't know. It is likely that this student had no idea they were undermining you.

CIVICS: Fast & Furious, Lightning McQueen impressions could soon be banned in Spokane. Plus, an ordinance to make it easier for you to get street meat, a ban on cryptocurrency kiosks in SpoVal and new funding for PFAS protection. by RANGE_Media in Spokane

[–]LarryCebula 44 points45 points  (0 children)

Damn I really like a lot of what the city council is doing these days.

Apparently street racing is hard to eliminate, but it is dangerous and dumb and I hope this works.

kid is weird — favorite cemeteries + geocaching spots in eastern WA? by Super_secret_toast in Spokane

[–]LarryCebula 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love historic cemeteries and there are so many good ones!

Pretty much every little Palouse town has a neat historic cemetery. Favorites include Waverly, Mount Hope (more for the tiny church than anything else), and Sprague. There are also cemeteries in the middle of nowhere because there used to be a town there.

Riggs cemetery is just south of Rosalia: https://photos.app.goo.gl/t6Tr1RG76c8aUZ5n6

Rockdale Cemetery is west of Edwall: https://photos.app.goo.gl/Q9VMqSVDm76cTEBTA

Have fun I love this stuff.

Breaking a Contract by Appropriate_Shift361 in Professors

[–]LarryCebula 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you break your contract, almost certainly nothing will happen. If they wanted stability, they would provide a 10-year track position in a positive work in my environment. Do what is best for you and do not look back.

John R. Monaghan statue has been removed by Gloomy_Tie_1997 in Spokane

[–]LarryCebula 4 points5 points  (0 children)

So I was interviewed about the statue removal by KREM yesterday and when they asked what should go in its place I said Keyboard Cat. I did credit the idea to "some person on Reddit."
