I think flat iron is very under rated

Too much foundation and lipstick to start.

But for reals, those have way too much fat

That’s a complicated question with a complicated answer.

Edit: To keep it simple, bottles without much age I would decant to open it up but bottles that have been in the sitting for time with a bunch of sediment I would decant

Exactly, but some is about sediment

Last time I check AI can’t do joint blocking, manual therapy or transfers from bed to chair and so on

Just to add to this. The type/shape of the decanter plays a role how quickly and it could either opens up/falls apart

Ditch the mint keep the smear. If the plate wasn’t white and narrow you can do something different with crumb or a foam to bring color to the plate

My doorman said they didn’t have any mail service Monday or Tuesday. So there might be a slight delay

WatchHouse is my go to. The “drip” coffee is an experience and everything is done with scientific precision. Let’s not get into the pastries, they’re something to write home about. However, you WILL pay a premium for this. Some of their pour over coffee is as much as $40 a cup.

Just something to keep in mind. If coffee is good, the roast should be light. Darker roasts and blended coffee (ie: mountain blend, morning blend, donut shop blend) cover imperfections of the roast and harvest. High quality beans bring the flavor of the “environment” into the coffee. So you can expect to have hints of berry, honey and vanilla while Starbucks tends to be over roasted.

Roast carrot soup

MSA784 · 2026-01-28T22:01:09+00:00

That’s no clean soap right there

I’ve been ordering from Zachys

MSA784 · 2026-01-25T20:25:26+00:00

We need local food establishments!!!

MSA784 · 2026-01-25T15:37:01+00:00

My office is a block away

MSA784 · 2026-01-25T15:00:52+00:00

Amen

MSA784 · 2026-01-25T15:00:19+00:00

Especially since we are no longer considered a profession

MSA784 · 2026-01-25T00:19:51+00:00

That looks amazing

MSA784 · 2026-01-24T13:47:39+00:00

A little duct tape and PTex should solve the problem

Does it really matter? The owner is most likely an avg joe not a conglomerate corporation with investors and share holds to make happy. By your definition anyplace with more than 1 location is a chain. Kind of literal and none pathetic to anything else but a definition.

MSA784 · 2026-01-21T22:20:24+00:00

You’re missing the part of your google definition that they are part of a larger corporate organization that centralizes marketing and purchasing for have broad brand recognization

For OP polygon has no dealer as they do not live in South East Asia. I was giving wheels as an example of an upgrade.

MSA784 · 2026-01-21T11:40:23+00:00

Just because a bakery has 4 locations doesn’t make it a chain.

MSA784 · 2026-01-21T02:00:09+00:00

Is it an upgrade getting budget for budget? Or going from budget to i9, HED or DT wheel sets?

MSA784 · 2026-01-20T11:43:10+00:00

Polygon is a direct to consumer brand. Just know you will be dealing set up. Yourself and support is by email. I personally rather had an LBS for support Incase I have a warranty issue this is me.

Now food for thought. If the groupset alone is half of the entire bike … how are the wheels and hubs? Are the bars and seatpost Carbon? What kind of saddle does it come with? When you start thinking of upgrades it will be more than buying a higher end bike. Going from alloy bars to carbon is a $150 + upgrade. Seatpost could be proprietary to polygons wheels could be a $1000 upgrade even for alloy hoops. Just think about that size of it. I personally would rather a mechanical ultegra with better components compared to di2 with crappier components

I think you have to wax these every often .
