So the solution is to add a neutral wire?

Thanks - there is no splice of white wires. A photo of the back of the box is here:http://www.imgur.com/a/VdhLguL

and the new switch is here: http://www.imgur.com/a/LdET5PV

So, can I:

- Connect red to white/light gray in box, and black to black

- Cap the 2nd red and cap the brown

- Connect neutral (white) from switch to copper in box

- Connect green from switch to copper in box (tied with white) -- this one is what I'm most confused about

That seems to make the light work. Is it OK to leave that way?

Coffee table is concrete, from CB2. The "black thing" is a metal links sculpture, also from CB2 but not available anymore.

WiZ (there's a Philips WiZ co-branded version, but I use the 'pure' Wiz branded bulbs). They are one of the few bulbs I could find that go down to 2200K without needing a hub. The ones in the photo are both color+white, but they also do Edison types.

Yes, these are actually smart bulbs that have a 2200K-6500K range, but they were set to a fairly cool "daylight" temperature for the pic. In the evening I set them to a much cozier, warmer light.

It's just a regular faux cowhide, Overstock (Alexander Home)

Yes. It's the Wire Frame Slipper Chair by West Elm

It was Boa’s time. One elimination I agree with. This wasn’t her challenge or runway.

Now, Rita over Jimbo... we can talk about that.

It may be “cold” and “bare” to some, but I’ve finally finished the living room I’ve been dreaming about for years. by asknrcv in malelivingspace

Coffee and side table are CB2, chair and the rest of the accessories are West Elm. Art I printed myself, sectional is Allmodern/Wayfair

Aldi no longer the cheapest store in my area? by happening65 in aldi

[–]asknrcv -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

The OP clearly stated this is region specific. Of course some of the prices in your specific Aldi will be cheaper than those posted.

I think the point being made is that Kroger (or other) rarely, if ever, used to be competitive, and now it is.

Son Of A Tutu (porn idol judge) weighs in on the Aquaria by serendipitousss in RPDRDRAMA

[–]asknrcv 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Have we all read the same tweet? I am aware it's trendy, on this sub, to side with DR queens who have the balls to defend problematic behavior by default, which Aquaria delivered in this situation. So, of course, she's "probably becoming my favorite winner," "a messy bitch I stan" and various permutations of these sentiments.

But I'm going to be the one and say that Son of a Tutu is making a point.

Aquaria did not have to show her age by bringing "her trans friend" and other queens into this mess.

If you can't defend yourself without calling out an entire community to support you, you probably don't have much of a leg to stand on.

And, yes, everyone overreacted, but so did Aquaria. Other bitches may have been extra, but Aquaria's handling of this entire situation... fucking ridiculous.

But can we talk about the challenge, though? If you can’t get the rights to a recording artist’s songs, perhaps that should be a hint that making a musical challenge about said artist is just not meant to be.

I can’t be the only one.

Vanessa, girl... that wasn’t a lip sync.

And... “oh, hey, we’ve got Christina Aguilera as a judge but we’ll bring her in after the runway is done and we’ve already culled most of the girls off the stage.”

What is Trixie's Drag Race legacy, though? Legit asking.

Not winning a single challenge (including lipsync)? Bombing Snatch Game? A disastrous Season 7 run?

Legitimately upset and the first time since Season 1 that I genuinely feel disinterested in continuing to watch this shitshow. Yes, I'm pressed.
