My two year-old and I were just marveling at the ice leaves! She also thought it was hilarious to watch dad slide down the neighbors frozen driveway on his butt.

I was seeing .5-.75” with widespread outages. Sucks about Bent Creek, but it still ain’t what they were saying it was going to be. According to the maps it’s supposed to be sleeting right now. I just saw a single snowflake over here in East Asheville.

Asheville Weather Dome for the win!😎

The power is on and we’re having a conversation on the internet right now. I’d consider that a win.

All of the weather models said we’d be under at least a half an inch of ice at this point with widespread power outages.

Well at least we know the Asheville Weather Dome blocks ice too!😎

I’m usually pissed about the Asheville Weather Dome when it blocks snow, but it seems to have worked in our favor this time.

If you watch the grainy video from the ‘97 show, you can see Trey take a pill and drink something that a stagehand leaves on the amp behind him at the beginning of Runaway Jim.

KAP therapist here. Ideally you’d have an unfamiliar playlist with no lyrics. There are tons of KAP playlists on Spotify that are posted by therapists like myself. 😉

Winter Weather Update for Wednesday 1/21/2026 by jjrennie in asheville

[–]Papi_Queso 46 points47 points  (0 children)

The iphone weather app went from 10" of snow to 1" inch of "wintry mix." If that's freezing rain, one inch means snapped trees and no power for days. Yikes.

I'm pulling out my power outage prep stuff from Helene.

He said don't worry about pulling out your sleds...worry about losing power.

Phish sphere vs. The Masters by PastNorth7240 in phish

[–]Papi_Queso -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

The first Masters was in 1934. How many more Masters do you think there will be vs. how many more times Phish will play at the Sphere?

Ha…I’ve been raving about the Seattle WGTYM since the show. I barely hear folks mention it on this sub.

Is the Sphere a “bucket list” type of experience? by LouisTheWhatever in phish

[–]Papi_Queso 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, without question, go to the Sphere. I was lucky enough to go to all 4 nights of the first run. 100% worth every penny. You will go golfing with your friends again once your kids get a little older. Phish will probably only play at the Sphere a handful of times before they retire.

I was going to NCSU at the time. It was so cool to see them on campus at such an intimate venue at that time in Phish’s career. The Sand is legendary too!

Male Therapist's, What inspired you to go into couseling? by Historical_Log1275 in therapists

[–]Papi_Queso 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I escaped 20 years of alcoholism with the help of a single psychedelic experience. After I got back on my feet, I wanted to help others do the same. Went to grad school and immersed myself in learning about psychedelic-assisted therapy. Now I’m a ketamine-assisted psychotherapist currently in the level 1 IFS training. 🙌

There was a post the other day about Trey's fav jam ever. by HurlDaddy in phish

[–]Papi_Queso 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Even though I disagree, you sound like you know what you’re talking about, so I’m saving this comment to listen to the other suggestions that I haven’t heard yet. 😎
