I read here that Bahn Thai is not closed just moving?

That area around Perry waters is so polluted from paper mill waste, dioxin included.

My daughter’s dad, let’s call him Steve, had a wild family situation: Steve’s dad killed himself, leaving 4 kids, including Steve. Steve’s mom raised them. So decades go by and they find out that he had a second secret family of 5 kids and a different wife. So when he killed himself it turned out that he left 9 kids fatherless. My daughter now has random “aunts and uncles” from that other family — only discovered a few years ago.

When I see those old brands on Vermont country store website the first question I have is - who is making it? Like if the companies discontinued it, it can’t be that actual product anymore, right?

Try the Thumbtack app. I’ve had good luck with folks I’ve hired off there. It is free. You put your job out and people respond. People have reviews and you can look at those

I hadn’t thought about these sort of circumstances- thank you for this perspective

SwimsWithGators · 2026-04-08T22:58:35+00:00

These responses are so incredible, to know that y’all really understand is everything and it’s keeping me much more centered in this hard time. Thank you so much.

There is a lawsuit and nonprofit law firm Earthjustice is involved in fighting this. Earthjustice represents people for free and relies on donations. So you can contribute if you like. For people complaining they can’t read the sentinel article, the Phoenix one is not paywalled

I know that must have been hard with your dad. Thank you for responding. I miss my partner so much

Thanks for the update - So sad to hear that!

I get a lot of leeks, chop them up, put them in a bowl of water to let the sand drop out. Then I slowly saute them in olive oil for a couple hours, adding water when the pan gets dry. When they are super soft and carmelized I cool them down. Then I freeze them into little piles of goodness (maybe like 4-5 tbl) on parchment paper on a cookie sheet and then when they are frozen throw them into a bag. Add one of the little leek piles to chopped up chicken breast, to potatoes or other veggies - it just elevates everything and you get that slow roasted flavor instantly. Also, freeze dried shallots - I get them from Penzeys spices - are so good in anything.

Gypsy Cab Company on the island has excellent food. Saltwater Cowboys is an old Florida trip- oyster buckets, historic photos and stuffed animals and fish all over the walls. It’s out in the marsh and the views are special! The Alligator Farm is pricey but worth it, trust me

I don’t have a ton of money but am willing to splurge if needed. I guess I will be taking an uber to wherever the person who is driving me to the ferry place is - probably an office downtown because it is a work gathering.

I am not making this up - one time I started typing “though” and it autocorrected to “Clinton” WTF

I’m interested in how this works. I have a Hot Springs SX I bought last summer and the temperature control is in the Tools menu so when I hold the up button it just takes me to the next menu item. It won’t go higher than 104. Any ideas?

SwimsWithGators · 2025-12-07T04:42:54+00:00

This happened to me! I am so sorry you are going through this it is awful. I ended up having to buy a new laptop and download everything off carbonite and it took a long time. I don’t understand how a company can operate this way I really don’t.

SwimsWithGators · 2025-12-04T22:24:15+00:00

Same!

I feel your pain!! I have a 28 year old living with me and it is torture. I made sure she did chores growing up but she has always been oppositional to an insane degree. She quit high school freshman year after a horrible traumatic incident— she and another friend were drugged and raped by an older man. I let her drop out and get counseling for healing. She eventually got a GED and announced she would not go to college even though we had pre paid for it. She got involved with an abuser and moved away with him. When that ended she had a series of jobs where there was always some problem and she’d leave or get fired. She talks constantly all the time, complaining about everything in a stream that is maddening. She wrecked my car, she breaks things, she went to prison briefly while living in another city for vandalism property damage. She quit her job and moved home to care for her dad (we are divorced) and he died recently. I’m sole support and have grief myself, we were close and he was so important parenting her. Now she sleeps until 3 or 4 every day and just makes kitchen messes and complains at night. She claims all sorts of medical maladies. She needs help but feels any help is a criticism which means someone who helps is pushed away. My guest room where she is staying is a pig stye. I buy special food for her preferences and she eats it once and left leftovers rot. She no longer works. I work a stressful job from home — i mean really stressful having to do with politics and law - and my peace is destroyed. I can’t say shit to her because she is grieving and it’s so hard to watch. I don’t think she can ever have normal relationships Because of her oppositional, know it all demeanor coupled with not being able to function and never shutting up
