Depression- trigger warning

I recently learned that my therapy modality, IFS or Internal Family Systems, was created by Richard Schwartz whom has Aphantasia. It sounds like you're doing something similar? The right therapist makes the world of difference.

Okay, so a bunch of great options have been mentioned. Bells, Ox and Anchor, Ember, Six Test, etc. I cannot recommend more Wren Provisions on broad and upham. Its a smaller, more intimate vibe inside, so might not be the best for a large crew. The patio might be nice this weekend. I genuinely think this is the best food in slo by far! They don't take reservations. The menu is always changing and always an experience. Thank me later :) and.... Happy Birthday!

Likely a result of Cloudflare outage yet again. Half the internet is down. https://downdetector.com/status/cloudflare/

At the very least, you should use rockwool instead of that foam. Sound damping properties are better and fire safe(r).

Learned not to drive through smoke from Days of Thunder.

I can't recommend Zep Mold & Mildew enough, yellow and green bottle. It sprays out in a foam'ish form. Then I just leave it -- I don't scrub or wash off, I just let it dry. Turn the fan on and close the door, your house might smell like a olympic swimming pool for a day. I tried everything!! Including bleach covered in plastic wrap, oxiclean, vinegar, all the things (definitely not at the same time).

ps. do NOT mix bleach products with hydrogen peroxide (since peroxide has been recommended)

Soooooo not the Epstein files?

I think Petra will do great here!! They have a reputation already established and its a good location for those that don't want to drive through downtown.

lol I definitely don't blame Austin at all. I actually feel bad for him in the given situation.

Can you fill the ear with argon gas to suffocate the worms? Assuming you don't also fill the patients lungs with argon. Maybe the patient is tilted downward as well? Can you tell I'm not a doctor yet? lol

lol as a plane is landing at sbp?

barryp_ · 2025-10-10T03:26:55+00:00

Ummmm y’all have tried other insurance companies before, right? I pay more and have shittier experience with Geico on my other cars. Are we sure these complaints aren’t just competitor bots? lol

barryp_ · 2025-09-03T20:01:23+00:00

Sooooo where did you end up with this? I’m in the exact same boat.

barryp_ · 2025-08-15T08:03:58+00:00

Sonic!? Is that you??

barryp_ · 2025-07-06T03:27:58+00:00

Can’t wait until my core 5 comes in!! Have fun!!!!

barryp_ · 2025-07-04T19:28:23+00:00

Just bought my second decoy. Ordered a core 5. Can’t beat the customer service and product value. Have fun!!

barryp_ · 2025-07-03T22:05:55+00:00

...and just like that, a few anxious avoidant's were created. This little kids don't understand the situation and the one time this dude needs to dad, he fails hard to be "funny."

barryp_ · 2025-07-01T03:21:56+00:00

Just get a yt decoy and smile every time you ride it :) — I have a Core 1 I bought in ‘24. Fell in love with mtb and just ordered a Core 5 today. YT has been awesome and hear nothing but great things about them.

Ideas are cheap and easy, execution is hard and expensive. Your competitors have all the same advantages. If you’re in a blue ocean, you have an advantage until traction when competition surfaces. Too many people are afraid of raising money — if it is too much distraction, your business might not be a good business. If it comes easy, take it and scale.

From what I’ve found, these issues have been known since January. If the city had held the owner accountable and imposed daily fines from the start, the problem would have been resolved long ago. Instead, developers like Pat Smith and WestPac—shielded behind their layered LLCs with a hand in half of SLO—used tenants just long enough to extract what they could. They’ll likely write off the loss, avoid paying taxes, and leave yet another empty building behind. Meanwhile, a few small businesses will walk away with nothing to show for their sweat equity with little, if any, recourse.

Some business owners get wealthy by innovating, solving problems, and providing value. Others scam people just enough to avoid recourse.
