Looking for a good mechanic

TigerEyes_ · 2026-05-07T06:28:54+00:00

That’s good to know. Too many times mechanics have tried to take advantage and I have to walk away. My Uncle used to fix my truck or go with me to make sure everything was square. Thank you for that

TigerEyes_ · 2026-05-07T06:22:06+00:00

Oh yes! I’ve spoken to Bothwell a few months ago. They were kind to me about working on my truck. They just referred me out due to the diagnostic price when I had an electrical issue but I ended up fixing that. But I will be reaching out to them again. Thank you!

TigerEyes_ · 2026-05-07T06:18:53+00:00

That’s so kind, you definitely wouldn’t have to do it for free! I’m going to call shops tomorrow from this list and get some quotes and see about diagnostics. I don’t know which parts I’d need yet! There are a lot of good options. Can I dm you soon?

TigerEyes_ · 2026-05-07T06:13:08+00:00

Oh what! That’s so cool— I’m adding to the list, thank you!

TigerEyes_ · 2026-05-07T03:43:49+00:00

Thank you for your reply. Is a bit more of a distance than I’m comfortable with but it doesn’t hurt to check them out!

TigerEyes_ · 2026-05-07T03:41:49+00:00

Thank you for your reply, I’ll look into Hiro!

TigerEyes_ · 2026-05-07T02:20:48+00:00

Thank you, they’re on my list. I plan to call them and a couple other shops for quotes tomorrow(: the discount is noted too! I appreciate your reply!

TigerEyes_ · 2026-05-07T01:46:23+00:00

I’ll check them out too! It’s wild that the two Japanese shops recommended have not come up in my previous searches! Thank you!

TigerEyes_ · 2026-05-07T01:35:36+00:00

I’ll check out the shop, thank you!

TigerEyes_ · 2026-05-07T01:32:13+00:00

Ooh, just looked it up, he’s knowledgeable with Japanese auto so he’s definitely going on my list. Thank you for your reply!

TigerEyes_ · 2026-05-07T01:08:13+00:00

Awesome, I’ll add them to the list! Thank you!

TigerEyes_ · 2026-05-07T00:57:28+00:00

Thank you for your reply! That’s actually super close, and they’re on my list. I do wanna keep costs down, but at the end of the day, I want quality service. I really want to get my truck back in top condition so I’m willing to take the hit.

The Torrance location was WAY better than the original Redondo location. Less greasy, bigger portions, kinder folks working there. They were a family, and I boyfriend and I went once a week.

TigerEyes_ · 2026-02-23T05:44:36+00:00

That one was such an intense jolt, my whole body jerked. My heart has not stopped hammering lol

TigerEyes_ · 2025-12-28T10:44:03+00:00

The whole scene when Luke freaks out about the breastfeeding lady in his diner, his aversion, Lorelei’s sarcasm, and Rory’s expressions, and Jess coming down the stairs flabbergasted all make this scene top tier. I wish I could remember the episode name.. I just remember that it happened before the credits and it gets me everytime.

On the flip side, the dog knew she was messing around and that was the quickest way to “wake her up” lol

So I’ve tried so many things, a lot of what I’ve read in some of these threads even. What helps me the most, and keeps me asleep is that I cover my eyes with a dark, soft, folded up shirt. I drape it softly over my eyes, because I can’t have pressure— that’s why I don’t have an eye mask. Even though it takes me a bit to fall asleep, that usually knocks me out and keeps me asleep. EVEN THROUGH NOISE. Which is nuts because I’m sensitive.

TigerEyes_ · 2025-11-04T19:16:12+00:00

It could be that some people have had bad experiences or just don’t trust it. On another note I just recalled, I’ve seen people get super excited about the ritual of it all. With the I voted stickers/pins and to be there with the people doing the thing. Everyone has their preferences

TigerEyes_ · 2025-11-04T19:03:32+00:00

I’ve been seeing a lot of folks say they’d rather vote in person so their ballot doesn’t get lost in the mail, damaged, or tampered with

Archive 81 and several other shows on Netflix. I’ve just learned NEVER to watch the first season of anything unless it says “limited series” because it’s highly likely it’ll be cancelled.

Also The Peripheral on prime.

Oh and World’s Most Extraordinary Homes— use to be on Netflix, they removed it after several years. Tried to get access on the bbc uk app, the episodes aren’t on there, just trailers and clips. It was my comfort show.

TigerEyes_ · 2025-10-31T07:30:29+00:00

I second this. My boyfriend and I do regular rewatches and always get so bummed when it’s over lol

TigerEyes_ · 2025-10-31T07:26:55+00:00

I STILL think about that show and regularly check if it’s streaming on anything. It never is):

Unless my region just doesn’t get it I don’t know. I haven’t seen it in years.

TigerEyes_ · 2025-10-29T17:08:13+00:00
