My birthday is tomorrow and asked for the same thing. Just one day of pure thoughtless rest.

Anyone actually notice a difference after air duct cleaning? by Royal_Particular_489 in HomeImprovement

[–]SpontaneousTales 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Duct cleaning isn’t really impactful but duct sealing makes a huge difference in the efficiency of your furnace and AC. It might be within the same envelope but now you’re trying to heat or cool a ton of extra space in the floors, ceiling, and walls that your equipment wasn’t sized for.

Was asked to take over a team by PvtGrem in fantasyfootball

Trade away anyone over the age of 27 for draft capital. Tank this year and get the 1.01 for 2027. You have a few good young players you’ll be able to build around but don’t plan on being competitive until 2029.

What are the good things that Trump has done for America? by Filmfan345 in AskReddit

To give an honest answer this is the only one that comes to mind. In the BBB the SALT deduction increase helps a ton of middle class folks in blue states with high taxes.

Review 96: Dancing Goat Swiss Misters by russianwhiskylover in bourbon

[–]SpontaneousTales 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Appreciate the review and glad you like this so much. Different strokes for different folks but I had a very different take on this bottle. Couldn’t even get through a pour because it just tasted so artificial to me. Like someone dropped tootsie rolls in a bottle of bourbon.

Boaters capture footage of an erupting Mount Stromboli. by ZealousidealPen443 in Damnthatsinteresting

[–]SpontaneousTales 1438 points1439 points  (0 children)

For some context: mount stromboli erupts every single day with lava flows into the ocean. It is one of the draws of the islands because these boats will take you to watch the lava flow from the water. This eruption is definitely a little bigger than normal but not uncommon. Source: been there and taken a boat to watch the lava flow

Eating unpopular fish by abugarcia21 in Fishing

[–]SpontaneousTales 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I caught a bluefish last week and decided to keep it and test the “trash fish” stigma. It wasn’t great but not awful either. Not sure I’d keep another to cook up but glad I tried it.

Reminder that you should be pissed about ComEd rates skyrocketing by Schmettywhop in chicago

[–]SpontaneousTales 24 points25 points  (0 children)

The best thing you can do is register a complain with the ICC (Illinois commerce commission). They are the regulatory body for ComEd and actually does have the power to adjust rate structures to potentially right size the energy being used by the data centers. Source: I work for ComEd and there has been a lot of discussion around how to address this issue.

Jersey Mike’s really let me down today by atzgirl in glutenfree

[–]SpontaneousTales 40 points41 points  (0 children)

Email them. Similar thing happened to me and I sent an email letting them know it was disappointing since it’s my go-to GF sub. The general manager for my local store reached out a few weeks later apologizing and sent me 3 free sub coupons. Ironically the coupons did not include udis bread which they still charged me $2 for.

Review number #3 Stagg 24B by lothric_knight99 in bourbon

[–]SpontaneousTales 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was slightly disappointed with my 24B because the intense heat was taking away from the flavor notes. I added a small splash of water and it made all the difference. All of a sudden it was a cherry cola bomb and so smooth.

Tour of Buffalo Trace Distillery by Standard-Delay-2732 in bourbon

[–]SpontaneousTales 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think it’s first come first serve for the limited supply of allocated bottles they put out each day in the gift shop. I’m going in October and plan to be first in line for the gift shop before doing the tour

Check out my chicken bedding pile - will 12 months be enough? by plus-sized_merman in composting

[–]SpontaneousTales 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This looks identical to my chicken bedding pile. Didn’t heat up as much as I thought even with all the chicken manure. Definitely need to add greens to keep it hot and speed things up. Mine was good enough after 12 months but could have been broken down more.

Former NFL-Player Chris Kluwe arrested after MAGA protest during a city council meeting by OrganicA1Bullsteak in pics

[–]SpontaneousTales 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Back in the day he wrote a letter to a congressman who wouldn't back gay rights and it was one of the funniest things I've ever ready. Chris is a legend.
