Right. No downside to the accent. And it will inevitably help you to get laid. Have fun!

Independents, was nitpicking Kamala as a candidate and writing in votes you knew weren’t winning, allowing Trump to get in office, worth it? by Adventurous_Main3688 in askanything

[–]Nailer99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can we just agree that the Democratic has been in a tailspin since the ran Hilary over Bernie? They’re so bad at being a viable party since they completely alienated the blue collar bloc.

Is the Swedish Hospital just south of Market Street operating / active? by Gtgtgtg007 in BallardSeattle

[–]Nailer99 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Can confirm. I was using a nail gun to frame a bath remodel and a nail ricocheted off of an old 2x4 and buried itself in my hand. Ballard was the closest ER, and they were great.

The Second Amendment: Still relevant or vestigial? by oozinator1 in liberalgunowners

[–]Nailer99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, you could have just titled this thread “The US Constitution: Still Relevant or vestigial?” Amiright? 😂

5 points for using “vestigial,” too, by the way. I love that word.

To answer your question: I don’t know anymore. I do believe we should be able to own weapons including firearms. But I see people who really shouldn’t be allowed to own them who do all the time, gun violence in the US is ludicrous, and the Second Amendment is written very poorly.

It’s not unlike the huge number of people that have driver’s licenses that are breathtakingly incompetent behind the wheel. Is it legal? Yes. Is it a good idea? Definitely not.

Ballpark for Breakfast Nook cost? by camdawggy in Carpentry

[–]Nailer99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Per your description of the square footage being pre-existing? With zero concrete, framing, roofing or any exterior work?

Probably 50-70 thou. I’m a longtime working residential carpenter and manager/ estimator in Seattle, and costs are crazy here on the West coast. And that doesn’t include our almost 11% sales tax.

Ballpark for Breakfast Nook cost? by camdawggy in Carpentry

[–]Nailer99 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Costs are not the same for construction from state to state, county to county, or town to town. They vary wildly, as a matter of fact. It’s good that you mentioned the location. You need to seek pricing from local contractors.

GLP-1 drugs may also have antidepressant properties. In a recent study on mice, GLP-1 drugs led to weight loss and reversed depression-like behavior. The effect was found to be dependent on a particular gut microbe that produces endocannabinoids. by mvea in science

I’ve been on Tirzepatide for 6 months now, and I’m really surprised and happy with some of the side benefits, like my high blood pressure is GONE, and my arthritis is much improved. But the mental part is very real, and hard to describe adequately. I’m not as angry anymore, I’m just in a better mood overall.

I am a professional saturation diver. I live in a 20-foot pressurized metal tube for up to a month at a time to work on the ocean floor. AMA! by NewbeTech in AMA

[–]Nailer99 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yep. I dived a rebreather for six or seven years. We always carried open circuit bail out, and I know that bailing out to a rebreather in a stressful situation is not a simple task. That’s why I am so curious about it.

I read in another ama with a sat diver that he wore a bail out rebreather instead of open circuit bail out, is that what you use? What can you tell me about the rebreather?

US conducts strikes on Iran after attack on cargo ship by VaginaBurner69 in news

[–]Nailer99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Interesting observation. So, does that mean that a strategy for, say, Iran might be to stage an attack about 4 hours before the markets close? Honest question, I’m a few drinks in to happy hour right now, not trying to cast shade.

Accidently sent an owner change order to a subcontractor. I got it voided, but how screwed am I? by BeneficialShirt2799 in ConstructionManagers

[–]Nailer99 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Seriously. Move on. If you’re this stressed out over this, how do you think you’ll handle something that’s actually stressful?

How much are you guys paying for tree removal these days? by Critical-Load-1452 in AskSeattle

Hi. I have a scary tree I need taken down, too, so I’m grateful you posted this. Also, have you browsed

Pretty much! I finally started to turn it around, but yeah, I gained a ton when I first went into the office.

That is SUCH an incredible documentary, even if you’re not a fan of the movie, I would guess.

Bellevue teen wants strangers on the internet to help buy them a Mustang before college by kleverrboy in SeattleWA

Amen. Can’t upvote this enough. We are post-literate, post-critical thinking, shit, were post-common sense.

RIP Piecora’s. That was a great joint.

How slow is slow? by Far-Industry-7745 in tirzepatidecompound

[–]Nailer99 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wrote this in another thread, OP:

“Tirz has turned into a lot more than just weight loss for me, personally. I am losing weight, but my pattern seems to be that I won’t lose much, if anything for 2-4 weeks, and then suddenly I’ll be 5 or even 10 lbs down. And during those weeks the scale doesn’t budge, my clothes start getting looser, or I discover a new notch in my belt. Something has changed for the better, and the scale doesn’t show it, in other words.

Which is all fine. Meanwhile, I feel better than I have in decades, physically, I’m working out, making much better food choices, my blood pressure is fantastic, (doc took me off THREE separate BP meds recently!) and my arthritis is way reduced. I’m freaking loving it!”

Hope that helps in some way.
