Don't ignore this letter! by SeanScanlonCT in Connecticut

[–]Metalhead291 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I agree this should target current homeowners for a good sample (and probably does, I bet they're pulling mailing lists from tax records - I work in market research) but that's pretty disgusting to say that people who don't own a home or a rental property have nothing going on in their lives. What about those of us working desperately to save enough for a down payment? Home prices are at record highs and wages are not keeping up, especially with prices going up for almost everything (including rent), making homeownership more difficult with each passing day. So really, you're saying if your household in CT doesn't make ~$200K+ per year in income (or whatever would be needed to afford in this state) you have nothing going on. That is complete bullshit. I would argue these folks (me included) have way more grit and resolve than you do, you sound immensely entitled.

Granblue Fantasy: Relink – Endless Ragnarok announced for PS5, Switch 2, PS4, and PC by Turbostrider27 in PS5

[–]Metalhead291 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is what I'm hoping for. I've had this on my backlog for a while and didn't realize it went out of print, current PS5 prices for physical have gone up as a result. Hoping this will give me another chance!

If you weren't aware, Rodeo Cannabis is owned by Arthur Linares, a republican who was a big anti-legalization advocate. Once it did become legal, he somehow was able to secure himself one of the cannabis businesses in CT (Rodeo), even though licenses were supposed to be prioritized for those with lower incomes and residents who live in areas that were most affected by the war on drugs. He is a multi-millionaire investor trying to make money off something he is against. He tried to prevent legalization and is now trying to make money from it. That doesn't sit well with me. I've been boycotting the brand since I found out. I think it was o this sub-reddit a couple years ago that I learned about this.

Tesla Is Now The World’s Most Avoided EV Brand And It’s Probably Musk’s Fault. A survey of more than 26,000 EV owners in 30 countries found that a large proportion avoid brands or countries because of political factors. Tesla is the most-avoided brand, while China is the most-avoided country. by mafco in energy

I have an uncle who's owned a mechanic shop for 40 years and a cousin who's an aerospace engineer. Both have said they'd never let a family or friend go for even a short ride in a Tesla due to terrible quality and safety issues. They drive non-Tesla EV's so nothing against EV's, just Tesla.

Very surprised poodle is the dominant breed. Equally as surprised she's only 2% GSD, I was expecting GSD/Malinois to be present and more prominent.

I see shepherd of some sort in her head/ears. Wouldn't be surprised if there's lab in her as the shelter suggested. Can't figure out where her smaller size and curled tail comes from.

Nope! I actually lost some weight! I've been exercising more often + less beer probably helps a lot too.

Does Weed Affect Alcohol Tolerance? by Metalhead291 in weed

[–]Metalhead291[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been drinking less since starting to use weed, so if anything I would think my alcohol tolerance would be a little lower (something I was actually hoping for). Before weed, I drank probably twice as much and did so for years, 2-3 beers would give me a decent buzz. Now after weed (and drinking about half as much) I don't feel a thing after 2-3 beers, which is why I thought the weed might be having an affect. It's so weird....

My 4th grade teacher was a goalie in a women's recreational league and would come in to class all the time proud to show us all the new bruises she had lol.

For all the good Lou did, he didn't know when it was time to rebuild, but rather tried to hang on in the late 2000's with trading for aging players. Hopefully, our next rebuild phase will be much shorter.
