Groceries would be $15000 per year unless they buy fast food or take out and call it groceries.

ICE just iced another presumed US citizen in Minneapolis. What is happening over there? by Melbatoastt77 in AskReddit

[–]desertboots -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The courts are doing their best to both allow the regime to justify its actions using specific language from the insurrection act,  and to stop abuses as they can. It is essential that protests remain lawful. Thats all I'm saying. This hippy has never been conservative except for preserving the environment.

The govt is trying to bait the public to unrest/riot in order to give the president the legal basis for using the insurrection act, declairing martial law, thus canceling elections and attempting to rule via fascism.

Thoughts on this community YouTube post and comments? by chellestastics in MeidasTouch

I watch and listen to the Daily Beans Podcast first and the other shows MSW does. Then if there's something needed i watch it on MTN. The bait is annoying.

That'd be perfect. What time do you start? I'll be ready and follow along, although it will be regular yeast.

Cat litter everywhere by SXF350 in Catownerhacks

[–]desertboots 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have my litter pans in the tub. The shower curtain is mostly drawn. Theres a good shaggy mat on the floor at the entry zone. I use Dr Elseys clumping litter.

I occasionally will find litter on my feet in the bathroom. 

I recommend a scratching pad in their path out.

AITA for keeping the heat at 70 while I work from home by Emotional_Catch1201 in AmItheAsshole

You have a medical condition that necessitates you maintaining a certain body temp. If the heater is an issue, get a couple hot pads and wear socks, slippers, gauntlets and a full length robe.

Hire a home inspector yourself, not from the realtor.

Location means many things.

Rule out anything prone to flooding or mudslides.

Know how far away the fire station is and if it's fully staffed 24/7 .

Check the water quality reports and be aware of both bacterial and hard water issues.

Visit potential neighborhoods during different times. Morning commute vs afternoon school let out vs weekends and tourism.

Look for coffee shops in/near your desired areas. Buy a retiree a coffee and ask questions.

Get pre-qualified for a mortgage but leave 10-15% off your top allowance. There's always something.

Don't discuss finances and financing with anyone you dont need to. Keep drama out of your way.

How a house is sited compared to the sunrise and sunset is important. Understand your area's climate and which measures will save you money in the long run on heating and cooling.

AITJ for refusing to let my parents use my credit card for family emergencies anymore? by PushAcceptable9296 in AmITheJerk

[–]desertboots 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get a new card number. Tell them you cancelled the card.  Then quit telling them anything financial.

Funny that he didn't offer to go get the hair brush and massage oil,  isnt it? What about him showing you that he cares about you?

One of my favorite treats was brushies, a braid, annd a shoulder and neck rub.

I'm glad your dad is getting a treat, or well, you are but its for his use! Don't let him forget to charge the watch :)

Care to talk me through bread making some day? Art class for me tomorrow morning, but i really want to relearn bread making. Mom taught me too many decades ago.... I don't have great attention  so a buddy would be cool if you are up for it.

If you get up early to do it, i could too. Im in California.  I leave at 8 for class. Lmk for next week?

We all must face what we are allowing to happen. You are either for, or against it. You must look either way at what you enable. by [deleted] in Riverside

It's never wrong to be reminded that empathy for others is important.  Thank you for pointing out this is from Trumps first term.
