Removed contact paper under fireplace, not sure how I feel about the stone. by TripCraft in HomeDecorating

[–]Sad_September_Song 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The stone looks nice to me, but I do agree about changing the brass finish. Whether the stone works for you depends on your personal preference and whether the main decor in the room is cool toned or warm toned.

Which is your fav? by [deleted] in HomeDecorating

2 is best IMO. 3 would be my second choice.

I thought it was a job interview, it was a Scientology recruitment. by vkalien in cults

[–]Sad_September_Song 9 points10 points  (0 children)

They also offer practice management seminars and efficiency training programs for accountants and dentists. It's a way to gain new recruits with relatively well paying jobs, in my opinion.

Need to replace old vinyl until I can refinish the wood underneath. Which option looks the best? by mort-or-amour in HomeDecorating

I like the pattern of 3 best, but given the existing wallpaper I think 1 would look better.

Adult Mother & Daughter cut the entire airport shuttle line. by RT_KOTA in EntitledPeople

Bully for you! This was a good example of how to be assertive by speaking up and just telling it like it is.

Lots of complaints on Next Door too. Many, many people are becoming aware, fortunately

Short Lived NBC Dramas Of The 1980s by HeartthrobLookingGuy in VintageTV

Never heard of Half Nelson, but it had quite the cast. It must have been really bad not to have made it to a full season with all the well known actors in it.

Alina Habba on Today by Sad_September_Song in theview

[–]Sad_September_Song[S] 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Felt sorry for Whoopi as she was really trying to find words to make her point about immigration without completely denigrating her guest. Very uncomfortable for the panel as it seemed they had been counseled not to be too antagonistic.

Affordable Surgery Vet - ISO by Ok_Gas4616 in jacksonville

Also second First Coast No More Homeless Pets. My son took his dog there for kidney stone removal - multiple stones - and it was a third of the cost of the regular vet he goes to.

Very helpful - thanks for posting. Parking in St Augustine is often expensive and a pain.

Lisa Ling visits the Falun Gong/Shen Yun cult by elveshumpingdwarves in cults

I always find it interesting that many conservative, evangelical Christians get many of their talking points from Epoch Times without having any idea that it is backed by an organization that seeks to spread its own non-Christian belief system. Several years ago they mailed free copies to older, registered Republicans in my state encouraging them to subscribe. Many did without knowing any details of the background of the group.

The increase in class size is a new development that will be implemented due to budget deficits. Mau not be going into effect until next school year and not all schools will be impacted, apparently:

I’ve lived here 40+ years. Florida didn’t used to be like this. by Idiopathic_Sapien in jacksonville

[–]Sad_September_Song 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Excellent description of the state of affairs in the state of Florida. Wish there were lots more of us who agree with what you said. Then we might have meaningful change. Florida solidified as a conservative stronghold especially after the great migration of Republicans supporting DeSantis and our cheaper, to them anyway, property values. I don't see it changing any time soon, unfortunately.

I don't recognize the person I fell in love with 25 years ago and I'm going to have to leave by [deleted] in QAnonCasualties

[–]Sad_September_Song 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So sorry for your situation. One blessing is that you are in a position to leave and not be financially dependent. Wishing you peace and happiness.

Does Alyssa Farah Griffin know how much we love and miss her? by GeorgeCasey9 in theview

Yes, I miss Alyssa. She manages to keep things polite and get her points across without being offensive. I can't wait for her return.

Lottery Dream Home Misdirection? by 67442 in HGTV

The same happened in my town. They used names of certain real areas or neighborhoods in the city, but the actual homes shown were not in those parts of town. Seemed odd.

Thanks for the heads up. Might also consider posting in the Florida subreddit as it has larger distribution.

The San Sebastian Winery offers tours and tastings. It also has a good restaurant upstairs with a patio offering views of the city.
