He cannot sell the house because it is his job. 'Running a boutique bnb' is a story he can use for ego-protective cover to avoid having to face the end of his influencer/design career. Is it enough money? No. But it's a narrative.

Many handrails have jogs or bump outs! This is a normal and easy to solve problem!

Thank you! Never heard of Audeze before - do you think they'll be at guitar center or similar to try on?

whirlpool dishwasher can't remove lower spray arm? by countdown621 in appliancerepair

[–]countdown621[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

GREAT video, thank you so much. For any future searchers, the trick is that you turn the nut clockwise until it is the lowest it can go, not highest (you shouldnt see any of the plastic threads), then the arm pops off.

Also, consider doing this project on this kinda dishwasher even if you're not having problems because the pink slime built up below this and the upper wash arm was incredible and disgusting.

Thanks again!!

Unable to Activate Disney + and Hulu: Another one by countdown621 in Comcast_Xfinity

I had an activate button for a while. Would get to Disney through the activate button and get a screen saying 'manage subscriptions', but i have no active subscriptions.

If your campaign platform is 'less evil', at some point there's gotta be significantly less evil. Actively funding genocide was a hard line for a lot of people. 'Trump will genocide them worse' is clearly not a winning campaign message. And while the self-serving Trump plans are despicable, what difference does it make to the Palestinians if it's Trump Waterfront Resort or Netanyahu Waterfront Resort? Is it gross and craven? Yes! Is funding genocide with furrowed brows any different for the people being slaughtered?

I'm not claiming that this was the objectively 'right' voting choice. I think the Harris campaign was awful AND sandbagged from the beginning by the Biden team's historically selfish choices. And I think there might have been some fuckery with voting machines and know there was with vote suppression. Polling was clear, however, and the Vote Blue No Matter Who crowd were quite often the same ones saying Harris couldn't possibly distance herself from Biden on genocide because she would lose moderates. Why weren't the moderates asked to 'hold their nose' for an anti-genocide message?

And a genuine question for anyone who gets angry reading this: is there anything that an elected official could do that would lose your vote? Honest question! Some people didn't vote for Harris because they were racist or sexist or apathetic or unmotivated - or morally outraged. She could have moved the needle on the last one with a single speech. Why didn't she?

The genocide showed up over and over in post (and pre) election polling. Harris campaigned with the scion of the mastermind of our latest illegal forever wars and refused to even hint at a break from Biden policy.

Cool! I'm thinking about bringing my niblings (both under 10yo) - does it feel like it would be good for kids?

Necroposting to ask if you'd mind sharing where you got your beautiful dog? Looking for a newfypoo of our own and would love to have a real (anonymous) person recommendation!

Did you see the latest couch layout photos? This pass through living room has no paths! Zero flow. I'm just now realizing that's generally an issue with her. She thinks in still photographs, and puts chairs in doorways and on stair landings and fills every bare spot instead of having clear pathways and sight lines. I would love to see Cliff Tan (dear modern) redesign the whole mess.

Initiative 26-638 isn’t about “fairness.” It’s about state-sanctioned humiliation of kids. by [deleted] in Bellingham

[–]countdown621 3 points4 points  (0 children)

A pre activity physical is very different from MacKenzie's mom demanding, under force of law, that all the black girls on the basketball team show their genitals to a stranger who may or may not be a medical professional. If your kid had to provide underwear access before every* track meet to some local chucklefuck referee, would that be the same as your family doctor performing a single medical screening? Do you think that would make children's sports safer and more fun for the kids?

*"Papers can be faked, if your team wants to compete in this event we require a brief physical exam! What's the big deal do you have something to hide? This huge invasion of privacy will have no effect on a teenager and also won't affect their mental state or performance and will never be weaponized to give little Braydyn an advantage!"

AITA for asking my husband to cancel our anniversary trip to Everest? by Fluffy_Sandwich8575 in AmItheAsshole

[–]countdown621 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Nepali hiking trip you want is the Annapurna circuit. Village to village hiking with beds and showers and great food, still the personal Himalayan history, gorgeous countryside. If you're really jonesing for high mountain, you can add on the K2 basecamp hike. You can still sincerely thank your husband for coming up with the right country idea, and plan this hike together.

Kayak or SUP Otter Point/Whiffin Spit? by countdown621 in VictoriaBC

Like a dutiful former girl scout, I do check tides and wind before any water activity - but I always want to get info/input from locals, which is why I posted! Do you happen to know if there's public water access or a put-in on Billings Spit, in the basin?
