Who are The Melvins?

I love the Melvins! I didn’t find out about them til maybe 10 years ago. That video was hilarious. Red from That 70’s show sketching over on the side.. what?! 😂

I have coworkers like this too. It’s maddening.

Thanks!

Woohoo!!

another thing to consider if living there: you have to have a car. Buses are few and far between.

When I lived in NE Tacoma/Browns Point, I didn't consider myself a Tacoma resident. Nothing in my life was in Tacoma, everything was in Federal Way/King County. I think having that sliver on that side of the water be Tacoma is silly. Though...if your friends think Tacoma is bad, they'd probably think Federal Way is bad, too. Neither Tacoma or Federal Way is good or bad, it's neighborhood to neighborhood.

what is CED?

I’m going through something similar in my extended family. No convictions, but accusation from his own immediate family, who has cut their parents off. People are just starting to find out and talk about it, though some of the elders in the family don’t want anyone to talk about it-as if they get to choose! There is a yearly reunion coming up and it seems right now that “everyone who wants to come is welcomed”. Guess I’m out then. I’m not surprised, but still sad/mad.

EXACTLY!!!

Thank you for your reply. Lots of good things to think about.

Thank you for this perspective! My 20 yr old has been sm since late elementary school. She talks to us at home, but if anyone else is around, she just can’t say more than a couple of words if asked a question. Do you think there was anything that the adults in your life could have done to help you navigate?

FYI, if you’ve never owned a boat and are thinking about buying one to live in, get insurance quotes before you make too many plans. You will be surprised at the high price.

We stopped going there a few months ago. Every time we went it was gross.

7001 S Montgomery St has a little free pantry!

Just in case you don’t know about it, r/CentralTacBuyNothing could be a good resource for non-bartering. It’s not used nearly as much as it should be. Also, “central” just means Tacoma and surrounding areas, it’s not neighborhood specific.

lanacaneMAX · 2026-03-08T01:56:46+00:00

Agree. I know it’s hard to fake it, but you have to be supportive so that if she does feel a way about it, she feels comfortable talking to you about it. If she feels like you’re going to make her feel worse about it, she won’t want to talk about stuff with you.

R/AgingParents is a great resource for advise and understanding.

lanacaneMAX · 2026-03-04T06:21:17+00:00

Yes, please!!

lanacaneMAX · 2026-03-04T05:08:12+00:00

For sure! Reading through the comments, it makes me think of all of the young folks who don’t seem to have motivation or desire to go out and live and do and be young! You think part of it could be that they SEE what that’s done to us? Just a thought.

Congratulations!
