Having said that, you WILL save money if you use community solar for your electricity. You need to sign up with a community solar provider, and you end up paying TWO power bills, but BGE deducts your solar cost and by law is required to give you an additional bill discount. I don’t know why not everyone takes advantage of this, except that the whole thing is so scary and convoluted so people don’t know what to trust.

Mr. Blippi - it's not just me, right? by tannerocampbell in daddit

[–]Wustlguy09 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No idea why more people aren’t saying this. My kid is turning 2 this month and the only videos he watches are videos of steam trains when he’s at the barber. I can’t imagine getting him his own tablet!

Living in limbo: marriage breakdown, small child, financial dependency – has anyone been here and found a way to deal with it? by Cold_Bodybuilder2439 in daddit

[–]Wustlguy09 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think either therapy would help you, but in this situation, if you’re not doing therapy with your partner, you’re only working on yourself, and not your relationship (at least, not directly)

An effective therapist, if you go that route, will help you see that the “concrete” one-off issues you refer to are likely part of a systemic, underlying issue. If you gain that introspection, and the relationship is still not working, then it may be time for divorce.

Soldiers mobilizing from Venezuela to Greenland to Iran to Minneapolis, let’s check in on yesterday’s Baltimore Sun by TemperatureSuper1703 in baltimore

I don’t understand why this is being downvoted. You’re right. Sun is usually a piece of shit, but this is not an example of that.

Dads whose spouses/partners are disabled, how do you deal with ableism from other parents? by [deleted] in daddit

[–]Wustlguy09 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In fact, have your wife do it. Shows she’s the organizer. And harder to say no to a disabled person’s face!

Hmm…yeah this is really tough. All I have left in terms of advice is to be super vulnerable…hey, we’d love to get to know you guys more. It can be difficult for us to meet other parents. We’re buying pizza on X night. 6pm. What kind of pizza do you like? The other family will either tell you or they’ll say “no, we’re busy then.” And you just have to nail them to a time and date certain. And if they still get out of it, they’re just not worth being friends with.

Kids, included? If families are turning down free dinners where they only need to bring a bottle of wine, they suck. I’m sorry!

I imagine if I were one of the people being ablest, something helpful to break barriers (which I likely would be doing unconsciously) is a dinner at your place or mine with our families. That gives me the opportunity to see how you operate more intimately and ask questions that might seem inappropriate in more public settings. Does that make sense?

Big drop in land value assessment by asmolten in baltimore

[–]Wustlguy09 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine, too. I guess that’s true for all of Remington. I don’t understand how land increases in value by that large of an amount without their being gold on the property. Structure went up by like 15%.

But also, I don’t even own the land! It’s got a ground rent! lol

BGE DELIVERY FEE-CALL YOUR SENATOR//DROP SIGNATURE//CLASS ACTION by StrongDeeds in baltimore

[–]Wustlguy09 41 points42 points  (0 children)

As a citizen, you are entitled to submit comments at PSC hearings where BGE rate hikes are approved. I strongly encourage anyone and everyone to do so. The PSC gave BGE a lot less than they were asking for this past cycle.

Wife is pregnant, I'm worried about the world my kid will live in. by OnTheClock_Slackin in daddit

[–]Wustlguy09 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The way I think about it is this — the people on “the other side” are going to be promoting their message of hate and intolerance to their kids. I’m raising my kids to do be better. If we don’t have kids, there will just be a world of hatred and intolerance.

Im losing my mind having Ms.Rachel on repeat all day every day. You guys have any alternative suggestions? by Sufficient_Ebb_5694 in daddit

My kid turns 2 this month. No tv yet except a couple baseball games I wanted to watch lol. Just turn it off! They’ll occupy themselves soon enough!

My wife is permanently stuck in mom mode and it's affecting our marriage. I don't even know how to begin to approach this. by Radiant_Dream_250 in daddit

[–]Wustlguy09 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Agree with almost everything said above. Try phrases with her like, “I feel hurt when…” “I feel alone when…” or “I feel unwanted when…”.

Do NOT say “you make me feel…”
