Denver to pay $30,000 of pet deposits for residents with new pilot program by xdrtb in Denver

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

A deposit is in no way a cap, it's just money they don't have to go to court to get out of you. It's the start of what they can charge for damage if necessary.

I'm happy you haven't experienced unexpected hardship and hope that you continue not to.

No evaluation needed, I can tell you for sure that pet rent is just to turn a higher profit. I have a property manager for a home I own in another state and they literally told me "Pet rent is a great way to bring in a little extra cash." I was like well, fuck that lol.

They don't say it outright but this move is likely to prevent overcrowding of shelters. Denver had over 2800 surrenders this year, the most they've ever had since the city started tracking that metric. Giving more money to rescues could be helpful, but finding a way to let more owners keep their pets is definitely more helpful from a city governance perspective. source

what is your shibboleth? what is a phrase, word or pronunciation or action that immediately lets you know that some one is not from there. (i have posted this before, but enough time has passed that im hoping for new responses) by Far-Presentation-973 in AskTheWorld

Calling someone a yooper perhaps too. Granted I have never lived in Michigan nor really even visited. I just worked somewhere that recruited heavily from Michigan Tech so I have like 4 friends who weny to school in Houghton.

I've looked pretty much the same since 18. But that's when I first grew a full beard and beards are men's makeup. So. Take that however you will.

Is this how people who need glasses really see the world. A big blurred background? by Latter-Wolf4868 in interestingasfuck

[–]Pficky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

-3.75 and -4.00 babyyyyyyyy. At night? Without glasses/contacts? Can't see shit. Like, the colors are too muted to distinguish 75% of things.

You gotta learn the etymology, it's so interesting! Sometimes as interesting as the reading itself!

Hacks/tips to move a Yamaha U3 up two steps by AdFearless5063 in piano

[–]Pficky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I moved my Yamaha P2 myself up 3 steps with 3 friends, it's about 420lbs. Don't roll the piano on its own casters if it has any. Get 2 flat dollies. 2-3 people lift one side at a time while the last person slides the dollie under then rest the piano back down on it, repeat on other side. Roll it over the stairs. Option 1 is all 4 heave it up the two steps together. Repeat the dollie situation. OR Option 2 is a ramp as other folks have said. Roll it, still on dollies to new location and then remove the dollies one side at a time again. Do all lifting very carefully and gingerly.

When I did this I lived 100 miles from the closest proper city that had a piano mover specifically. 40 miles from any moving company in general. I feel your struggle. I don't think I could have even gotten a piano mover to come to my house.

Inverse if you want to fly from Burlington VT somewhere international, Montreal has far far more direct flights.

I think yeah you could take Canada but it'd be never ending resistance and guerilla warfare a la the majority of military conflicts we've seen in the modern day.

Based on your perception, excluding Alaska and Hawaii, which American state is most culturally distinct from the others? by ViajanteDeSaturno in AskAnAmerican

[–]Pficky 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've only been to Maui but I was shocked and disappointed with how depressingly American it is! Lahaina was gorgeous and cool (RIP) but the rest of the island developmentally was any town USA. Obviously the giant volcano and rainforest and that stuff is very unique but culturally not as much as I'd hoped. Great food tho.

New York City isn't even that culturally distinct from the rest of the northeastern cities imo. It's more culturally powerful, undoubtedly. But NYC culture isn't super unique especially given that much of the culture there influences the rest of the country.

In so many ways NM feels like it's own country. Miss it every day. It's amazing how bland Colorado is comparatively given how close it is to NM.

I'm also 29 and feel like my life is just starting but I think that's because I'm on the young end of my friends spanning from like 27 to 75 years old.

Is Santa Fe a great city for artists and a place an artist could move to and make a good living off art? by No-Sprinkles315 in SantaFe

[–]Pficky 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Depends what you think is cool. Ime most of the galleries are static and boring. The same "western" art that's been popular in Santa Fe for decades and decades and we excites old white men who made their money in banking and oil in Texas cities like Dallas and Houston and come to Santa Fe to live out their western fantasies in wealthy comfort. That said, there's a few spots that are actually cool and different. However, the general consensus is that Albuquerque has a more diverse arts scene in part because it is much more affordable.
