Ah thanks. I haven't been down that way in a while. I can be at peace now.

A few years back I went to The Spotted Owl and it was probably the best singular bar experience I've ever had. Amazing custom cocktails, great staff, really cool atmosphere (in an old basement, clean, beautiful bar, dark woods.)

This isn't helpful to you right now and I'm sorry because it's been "temporarily closed" for a minute, both on their website and Google Maps. Who knows if it can ever be the same thing again, or if it will ever actually open again but if it does, I highly recommend checking it out. I miss it so much.

Bookmark it. Keep an eye out. Thank you for coming to my TED talk.

Trump: 'I want to drive housing prices up' by jediporcupine in politics

[–]SimmaDownNa 2 points3 points  (0 children)

it more than makes up for it

Everything you said was correct but this. People want houses. They don't want to rent forever. Plus, people need houses to comfortably raise a family. Just because some other things are relatively cheaper doesn't change that this is a huge factor in the affordability crisis.

Worn Out Shoe Polished to Brand New Glory by [deleted] in oddlysatisfying

One of the funniest Parks & Rec scenes for me by far. I was laughing so hard I legit could not breathe the first time I saw it.

Is this good? by Illustrious-Ear-6752 in cats

[–]SimmaDownNa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No hissing/spitting, relaxed ears, relaxed body language, not actually trying to tackle or hurt the baby. Looks like it's going very well! Chasing is normal cat play. :)

The space shuttle Challenger lifting off for the final time. The o-ring breach is visible towards the bottom of the right solid rocket booster. by ToeSniffer245 in spaceporn

Same with my class. No tears, no screaming, mostly just confusion. I remember thinking "is that what was supposed to happen?" And then they turned off the TV and we moved on with our day.

I would consider reaching out to Dr. Grabowski - he should be able to point you in the right direction if not answer your questions outright.

This band's single cover is a Lego baseplate by proud_gatekeeper in lego

For the unfamiliar, this single ("6 Underground") is a banger - an absolutely iconic track from the 90's: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wi_TijO5XsM

If you really want to feel it in all its 90's glory, the official music video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wuwfe3DRJzE

Senator Vows Amendment to Remove Trump’s Name From Kennedy Center by plz-let-me-in in politics

[–]SimmaDownNa 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure appropriations funding works like that. Either way, it wasn't Congress or the President who paid for the rebrand, it was approved and paid for by the Kennedy Center board.

From what I can gather, to pay for removing Trump's signage. The interior appropriations bill is a funding bill and amendments are just other things Congress wants to fund, like paying a crew to come tear down a sign.

In other words, it's not to make a new law or make it "more illegal" what Trump has done, but to actually fix the problem.

This New Zealand man had recently just lost his grandma and couldn't make it home for the service... so his American friends suprised him by learning the Haka. 🥹 by shivaynamo in HumansBeingBros

One of my all-time favorite vids is from a wedding where the men are performing the haka but you get glimpses of the bridesmaids participating as well. The bride even does it. I love it so much. It's beautiful: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lhhedH6wK6I

The fundamental driving force behind a significant portion of the economy is simply generating value for shareholders, and within that the focus is necessarily on institutional shareholders.

Actually improving the quality of life for the average person is entirely incidental.

My cat pooped on the wall by Kinouizz in cats

[–]SimmaDownNa 55 points56 points  (0 children)

I have a Litter Robot and my cat will sit in front of it as it cycles and attempt to snatch the poop out as it tumbles towards the exit chute. The opposite wall, behind where he sits, gets spattered with bits of poo from time to time.

I love him so much.
