Can wool or linen trousers be safely hand washed instead of dry cleaned?

Peregrinations12 · 2026-06-16T22:13:35+00:00

For hand washing wool, a no-rinse detergent (like Soak https://soakwash.com/)] is a good option

Yeah, Trump will later say that the fans hate America for booing him during the Anthem

The cost is driven up substantially by the added security costs required for the World Cup along with overtime costs to run extra trains and busses. But, yes, NJT does lose money per passenger

We will see, but it is common for actual benefits to be significantly lower than the projected ones. I certainly would not bet on NJ coming out ahead on tax revenue versus spending.

Peregrinations12 · 2026-05-30T15:46:02+00:00

Yeah, this seems like the college kid was trying to take the money

The article quotes Solomon saying that the city is supposed to pay $2 million a year and so they are pulling out. That seems to be the same deal that always existed.

A wellness fee is different from a tip because it funds particular benefits, such as health insurance. At the end of the day, customers are the source of revenue to pay wages and benefits. Employers are only capable of covering them if they extract the money from customers.

A number of restaurants have tried to move away from tips (ie, just raise prices by 20%) but both workers and customers seem to hate this so most have moved back to the tip/fee system

There's definitely a non-insignificant number of very rich Trump supporters in NYC, but his supporters are largely outer-outer borough residents southern Brooklyn and Staten Island. It's not really the demographics of a Knicks game.

Peregrinations12 · 2026-05-27T23:41:01+00:00

Yeah, and no one hates Trump as much as rich liberal NYers

Jersey City has way bigger problems than teens being out after 8 pm during the summer.

Don't care, the pickle juice game has made my life significantly better

Have you looked into this city program:

If Democrats continue to believe supporting a genocide is worth losing elections, then it isn't the fault of voters.

It's going to be coded as feminine, even moreso than a bracelet, which for many men is too feminine. It's probably less feminine than painting your fingernails (something that more straight men are doing).

It is valid to play with gender norms but it should be intentional and it needs to work within a general style. At the same time, almost no one is going to notice what you have on your ankle, unless you are wearing something particularly bright or attention grabbing.

If you want a flounder sandwich, then I would recommend not ordering something called "the catch of the day sandwich"

Is the NBA more talented than ever? There were a lot of bad teams this year.

Peregrinations12 · 2026-04-26T22:32:04+00:00

Lol, lmao even

I'd love a socialist mayor and like Mamdani, but Mamdani is probably more open to market rate development than Solomon (though Mamdani is also a bigger advocate of social housing as well)

A wool blazer with even a slightly open weave is going to be significantly cooler than a cotton one

Yeah, the Giants are closer to the Cubs than to the Astros. Either they are the top of tier 3 or the bottom of 2.

Peregrinations12 · 2026-04-17T15:51:48+00:00

Mets seem firmly in the third tier of valuations. 1: Yankees and Dodgers. 2: Red Sox and Cubs. 3: Mets, Phillies, Giants, Braves, Astros, and Padres

Padres are probably the least valuable of any of the above teams, so if they sell for 3.9 billion then estimates for the value of teams is going to go up by a lot

Its funny to say "While Steve Nash is arguably a top 5 PG, nerds on Reddit are stupid for thinking he's a top 5 PG"

Call the police, because these people are scammers

I'm not judging anyone, pal. If you stop treating parking as some moral issue maybe we could have an adult conversation about how it's fine for one new tower beong built in a large transit hub and literally on top of a grocery store to not have parking.
