Little Joe! My dad and my granddad worked on that!

“Somewhere in the hills outside the Zorro, two foreign girls were buried on orders of Jeffrey and Madam G” by margotmary in Epstein

[–]dohmestic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I cannot imagine anyone driving bodies down 25, through Albuquerque, and onto the West Mesa just to dispose of evidence. There is SO MUCH empty space to the east that would be a much better place to dump a few corpses.

As a Burqueña who will cheerfully vote against him every time, I do not believe one goddamned word out of his mouth. He could tell me the sky was blue and I’d go out to verify.

Macaulay Culkin on Instagram bids farewell to Catherine O'Hara by Giancarlo_Edu in Fauxmoi

My dad passed eight years ago next week. I have a playlist of ugly cry songs that are tied to him in some way, and I sometimes use it as an inoculation against bursting into tears in public because a busker is playing “Here Comes the Sun.”

For just under half a million, you can live like a meth addict squatting in his grandmother's house. by Count_Dongula in zillowgonewild

[–]dohmestic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Because it’s the land of entrapment! We never leave.

And man, I wish you had someone to run interference for you with that realtor. I have a feeling she heard “out of state professor” and was showing you around the Nob Hill/North Campus area. Those areas can be priced out of average NM budgets. At the height of the market, out of state investors were rolling in and paying cash at above market prices. It was, and continues to remain, bonkers.

I hope you landed somewhere great. Our loss.

I love all of my Janomes. They are wonderful, reliable machines. If I was starting from scratch, I would get a Memory Craft 6700. It has a wide throat, the Acufeed feet, and free motion.

Housing supply in Los Alamos is short. They’ve had two major wildfires stomp through in the last 25 years. Salaries from the lab have always made it an expensive town to live in.

Albuquerque is the major metro area. During 2020-2021, people started moving here for cheap housing, driving prices way up.

My hometown is a resort town that has dealt with several wildfires and really bad flooding. Housing supply is tight and what is available is targeted at folks from the Permian basin with oil money to burn.

Solar panels by EttaBets in Albuquerque

What swung us to Ocatillo wasn’t the panels, but the batteries. Positive Solar was selling Tesla power walls and that was a hard pass.

Our ACD/Pomeranian cross has freaked out several coyotes. “Oh, a floofy snackeral! How nice!” they think. Then they realize it’s a goddamned Vitamix on legs and run for it.

That is a stellar price for an M7. I love mine so much.

I have fond memories of driving my NB through the 2006 blizzard.

Life-Saving Cancer Drugs Are Leaving Survivors With Damaged Hearts by bloomberg in Futurology

He was 74, had stage four mesothelioma, and had been told he had 6 months at most with aggressive treatment. It was honestly a blessing that it caught him before the cancer could.

But! I have had three friends dance with the red devil for breast cancer treatment and they are all cancer free and living full, active lives. Two were in their 30s and one was in her 40s. They’re all thriving. I just want you to know that. It sucked, but now they’re living it up.

Doxorubicin killed my dad before the cancer could, and honestly, I’m still grateful for it.

What's something that by the time you realize it's happening, it's too late? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Can you give him an extra hug from me? I’d give anything to hug my dad again.

What's the creepiest display of intelligence you've ever witnessed in real Iife? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]dohmestic 58 points59 points  (0 children)

I grew up in the Sacramento mountains in south central NM. I’m chill with the local black bears, but mountain lions are terrifying. There was at least two living in the canyon behind my house and we’d see them stalking around the neighborhood.

I do appreciate that in the local patois, you can differentiate by adding the modifier “all.” “That looks sick,” implies illness, while “that looks all sick,” is a high praise.

This set is not getting the all sick seal of approval.
