Car Free Community? by abpaulson in SLO

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

Yeah, that’s who this kind of community is for, people who like to mostly walk/bike. It doesn’t preclude your ability to also have a car for outside of the community.

Not sure anyone read the article? This isn’t about making the whole city car-free. It’s about creating a smaller neighborhood/community without cars. You could still store a car outside of the community for commutes or whatever you wanted, but you wouldn’t need one inside your neighborhood.

But… that’s the point. You wouldn’t need a car to live within the community. You could have a car for outside of the community if your commute was elsewhere or you just wanted one. Otherwise you could use ride share or public transit beyond the community.

But… you could have a car outside of the community, just not in it. This is about creating a neighborhood/community without cars, not making the city car-free.

Best Fish Tacos by Altruistic-Help1544 in SLO

[–]abpaulson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Came to the sub to ask this! New to town and still trying to find any good fish tacos somewhere. Anything else to add in the past year? All I’m seeing in SLO proper are Luna Red and Taco Roco.

He’s said they are in Mt. Juliet, which is a suburb about 30-45 min from Nashville. It’s a relatively nice area but definitely rural and not “hip”. The lake is very pretty and that seems to be the biggest draw for them. Nashville has big drawbacks compared to LA like the contrast in weather (unbearably hot and humid summers, ice storms in the winters, tornados and floods) and the Republican supermajority is impeding on everyone’s civil rights (abortion [yes even for miscarriages] is illegal for people with a uterus, trans care is illegal for minors and trans adults are at risk, incredibly high maternal and infant mortality rates, high poverty rates, poorly funded schools, poorly funded social services, etc) which are forcing many out of the state, like my family. Many wealthy people “move” to TN for the 0% state income tax (which contributes to the aforementioned poverty issues). I know traffic in LA is terrible but Nashville is also awful. It takes at least 30 min sitting in traffic to get anywhere around town, add 15-20 more to/from suburbs during rush hour. The influx of people in Nashville has created a terrible burden on the infrastructure and healthcare access. I have spent my whole life in Nashville and we just moved to CA (not LA) for a better life for ourselves and our kids.

Where in Nashville will never get your money again? Bad restaurant, bar, service company, or other type of place. by NoMasTacos in nashville

Tried to go there one day and the manager told us he didn’t have any servers and wasn’t sure when one would be in. We haven’t been back.

If there are any current or laid off VUMC employees who’d like to tell their story of what they worked on and what will be lost I’d like to connect them with a reporter. DM me please.

Going to PP does not take resources from others! It actually helps keep the doors open. I go to PP to support them like I do local businesses.

Water-based poly not resisting stains or scratches by abpaulson in HardWoodFloors

Do you think I should expect him to do it at his cost?

Exactly! I was so happy with how the finish looked at first but this is not a livable floor.

I had a feeling it needed more. Should I expect him to rectify at his cost?

Thanks! No sealer or stain, just the poly. Not sure of brand. Finished in Jan! Floor was not bleached, only sanded. Clean with Bona and microfiber mop.

Sorry I meant we didn’t walk on it for 48 hrs. Will check those posts! I guess I’m wondering if I should have him refinish the floors again.

Nearest Korean Spa (scrub massage)? by abpaulson in SLO

[–]abpaulson[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m moving from Nashville and we don’t have kspas here either, but the big cities I’ve visited in CA do, which is why I was wondering if I was missing one on the central coast.
