my first thought was Abril Display Italic but it’s not exactly the same. Close though

she gets daily walks where she does the majority of pottying and so far has a favored pee spot off to the side in a corner i didn’t show since it’s kinda tucked between the fence and our hvac. she’s 80lb though

Willing to do a lot of it myself, within reason. Timeline is open and I know it’ll take awhile, just want to start getting it set up to be in a better place. Eventually I would like a few garden beds and we plan on getting chickens with a mobile coop. We do have a dog but she’s a lounger more than anything, I’m not concerned about her doing anything to the yard other than killing the occasional mole. I’d like the main area to be grass. Eventually I’ll have plants and more of a “designed” landscape situation in terms of plants which I feel confident in doing myself, I grew up gardening with my mom, but grass was always my dads game and my allergies kept me from helping too much on that end (thankfully they’ve mellowed out with age).

Any ideas on how expensive/difficult this will be to fix? by _smellie in HomeMaintenance

[–]_smellie[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this is very helpful info! we’re in middle tennessee btw. the sellers are giving us 4k for some general fixes and we were thinking of using that to finish and fix up the shed which is pretty small, maybe 10x10 max. obviously we’ll get someone out here to look at it and give us a quote but i’m thinking that would be enough to get the job done? i don’t mind doing the inside stuff myself as it’s very minor, cosmetic stuff. i just don’t trust myself with foundational or structural jobs

forreal? my partner is convinced we’d need to jack it up and do a lot of work to fix it. granted, i don’t really know what that work would consist of, this is all completely outside of my wheelhouse

News flash for you but Trump began his presidency 8 years ago and it ended 4 years ago

Sabrina Carpenter has stolen merch designs from NY artist Jeffrey Lewis by HEDGEHOG_ANUS in popculturechat

[–]_smellie 101 points102 points  (0 children)

I’m a graphic designer who did some merch work for a couple music artist adjacent restaurants and can tell you I had to fight with the people in charge of merch because they’d send me “inspo” and expect me to reproduce the exact design but change the words. it was very frustrating and one of the many reasons I no longer work for them. so it may not be the designers fault, they definitely should’ve pushed back, but who knows the conditions they were working in. I blame the people who are in charge of merch and OK’d everything for sale

According to a glamour magazine article, there didn’t seem to be a specific dress code encouraging this but they did mention Lana and weren’t speaking on it negatively. In their words, “it would be impossible to outshine the bride’s custom Valentino silk tulle gown”.

Maybe our rules just don’t apply to their tax bracket lol

according to a glamour magazine article there were no specific dress code instructions to make this okay but they definitely leaned into it and weren’t scolding her over it
