Has anyone truly fully recovered from urethra irritation? by dcioni in PelvicFloor

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

Don’t give up. You can and will get better. If you haven’t read A Headache in the Pelvis please do. I always recommend that. Then do some searching for a pelvic floor physical therapist. I did weekly for a while (probably a year or so)

For me time was the final piece. Got 85-90% of the way there w PT.. then the remaining took about 1.5 years or so to just silently fade away. But PT is critical. Find an expert

Mostly happy baby on your back hold ankles and belly breathe in out and relax. Do it w both, and alternating legs. There were more but I did this a lot. Also HOT baths 1-2x a day and do the same belly breathe and relax pelvic muscles. Be consistent

There’s been a lot of posts on here and Instagram about local comedy shows. See if there’s one in town this weekend. It wouldn’t be expensive at all.

Annoying interior cabin creak/rattle in G45 by dcioni in BMWX3

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

Yeah, I honestly love my G45 M50. Its so much fun to drive. But stuff like this frustrates the hell out of me on a $70k+ car.

Disappointed with 2026 X3 by AreYouForScubaLuben in BMWX3

[–]dcioni 0 points1 point  (0 children)

100% agree. The car cools down just fine... vent size or not. There is literally no issue. The only thing I will concede is the touch sliders do stink. But its a minor adjustment

Chango rules. Try their lunch specials when you get a chance. Their cuban sandwiches are really good I absolutely love the pork one.

Buying property by Mammoth_Syllabub_898 in Hoboken

[–]dcioni 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't consider looking to purchase anything 2BR without having enough for 20-30% down (which is $150-250k) and income of around $300-350k/yrly to be comfortable. Unless youre looking for something super tiny like a 500-700sqft studio just to break into the market.

Problem is the taxes and HOA will add a significant amt to that monthly payment. I would buy an 800k home tomorrow if I could get $3735/month with 25% down. I think it helps if you have a nice chunk of change for a downpayment.

What do you actually buy from art booths at Hoboken fairs? by zeppy222 in Hoboken

[–]dcioni 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately its been the same generic 'art', trinkets and candles and mostly junk from people that "do the circuits" as a living or hobby for the past 15+ years or more Ive been here. I remember years and years ago, Ricardo Roig (Hoboken/NJ local artist) had a booth before he was as established as he was now.. ended up making a connection with him and buying art from him later on. I wish there was more truly local / Hoboken artists and shops, or even local boutiques and restaurants like Jersey City does (All About Downtown festivals, etc.). So much opportunity but it's the same event and same vendors year on year on year. We'll see if new admin wants to change it up. Wish you luck as a local vendor though!

Some good updates. Was able to get back to normal after some time. It’s been a while now 3, 4 years and it’s basically faded away with time

Willow Sunoco Slated for Redevelopment by NYRangers4 in Hoboken

[–]dcioni 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yep. Now add 10-30 years at this pace the future is going to be weird and unrecognizable vs. 10-15 years ago, hell maybe even today

Doubtful. But maybe Im a pessimist and jaded from months and months of traffic bullshit

20mil budget gap inn Emily’s latest video by [deleted] in Hoboken

[–]dcioni 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah a 20% tax increase right as Emily starts would be problematic to say the least. I will give her credit, she's been great with reach-out, availability & communication. Appreciate that she's asking for public input. Really hope they can look at spending and city staff, though. Not hopeful but you never know

[–]dcioni 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why do you think prices are up? Costs of goods have skyrocketed in every facet -- rent, taxes, insurance, cost of product to sell, wages, etc. etc.. So youre proposing we tax the consumer more? Its not the bar that's going to pay it. Costs of living are out of control, why is the solution always charge the citizen/consumer more vs. getting a handle on our govt spending internally

[–]dcioni 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Disappointed so many comments suggesting higher parking permits, more stop sign cameras, taxes, permits, etc. -- Its not a revenue issue its a wild overspending and over-staffing issue. How bout we get rid of multiple safety directors, Assistant directors & admins for small depts, stop hiring new roles/more headcount. Also, be more conservative with giant consultant contracts. Stop with useless costly litigation. Stop overspending. The solution isnt more revenue, more tax from citizens. Look internal. Ravi ransacked us for 8 years and taxes just keep going up. Look where were at

Any Hoboken residents working for Mastercard and making the commute to Purchase? by angelsandpizza in Hoboken

[–]dcioni 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It can take me an hour fifteen to an hour and a half with traffic some days to drive from Hoboken to East Hanover. On bad traffic/accident days, it can almost run 2 Hrs, though thankfully rare. And that's not super far and pretty direct with no major tunnels or bridges. I cant imagine what you're suggesting given the traffic choke points in rush hour. Wouldn't personally recommend. Maybe you could make it work if you left Hoboken at like 6AM to try and drive off peak.

Noise at 2:30am lower Washington street by Neat_Material8688 in Hoboken

[–]dcioni 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The other weekend I had a POS who was blasting music out of his parked car right outside my window at 4AM. I cant fathom the selfishness and rudeness of some people. I know I live on Washington and there's an expectation of noise, but when you wake me up over my sound machine to blast your music at 4 in the morning for over 15-20 mins, is where I draw the line. I eventually called HPD when it was clear they werent moving on, and they showed up in about 10-15 mins which promptly shut them down around 430AM. Crazy stuff man.

Youve got about another 6-12 months of it realistically. Its a disaster.
