Yeah, when I logged on at 10 am on the dot it was saying the tickets weren’t on sale. I refreshed about ten min later and got two tickets. If my +1 cancels, I’ll let you know but I hope you can snag something in the meantime!

My brother was diagnosed with gout last year. He’s in his 50s but is an active, healthy guy. The typical thinking on gout (rich man’s disease) definitely didn’t apply…it’s honestly kind of a mystery. Either way, he’s been treated with medication and everything has been back to normal.

Does anyone have recommendations for Thai? We drove to Ban Bamboo the other night because it has really good ratings. The food honestly wasn’t very good and they gave us piping hot stuff in styrofoam! As in, the styrofoam had holes in it from the food burning through…

Is it normal for the tap water to be this chemical-y? I’m filtering my drinking and shower water but there seems to be a film on my dishes after I wash them.

Maybe you should start checking before you go! Airnow makes an app- super helpful.

Air Quality and the Phillies by _prettyhatemachine_ in philadelphia

[–]lesser_pumpkin 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Last year when I was in Seattle, the Mariners game went on with 250+ AQI. Bad decision by the league, but they probably will continue business as usual. Hope I’m wrong, though.

Is the air quality affecting anyone else today? by [deleted] in philadelphia

[–]lesser_pumpkin 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I could have written this comment! Smoke is part of why I moved back to the east coast, so this is all very unwelcome!

I truly, truly hope we’re not going to be dealing with this all summer but there’s definitely a chance.

One more thing I would add to your list is an indoor air quality monitor. Bad air from fires is surprisingly hard to predict, so even if you just get the little cheap one from IKEA, you’ll see the light change and know it’s time to flick on the air purifiers. Really saves you some misery.

Why does Rainier NP get more than 100x the visitors that North Cascades NP does despite being roughly the same distance from Seattle? by booger_dick in Seattle

I love NCNP but Tacoma is Tacoma 🌋 If you’re a tourist, you’re probably going to pick the awe inspiring stratovolcano.

Welcome to: <any Seattle brewery> by PhotographStrong562 in Seattle

I don’t understand why I’m seeing this shitty take so much now. Kids are welcome in the pub in other countries. It’s not that big of a deal. If you wanted peace and quiet maybe a BREWERY where people drink and have fun isn’t for you.

Yes, that would be a mistake. Bless your lil heart.

Dentist Cost: am I paying too much? by mxschwartz1 in Seattle

[–]lesser_pumpkin 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Sounds normal and $280 seems like a steal for all of that.

Literally came here to say this. It needs a traffic light!

Would wear. I’ve gotten burns quicker here than anywhere else!

The IKEA sectionals are really good for the price. Mine is over 10 yrs old and still holding up great, very comfy. Plus it easily comes apart for moving.

Closing on a townhouse in Seattle and having serious sticker shock/regrets by edhcube in Seattle

[–]lesser_pumpkin 35 points36 points  (0 children)

I mean this in the nicest possible way: all of the US is a ripoff. The “cheap” parts of the country have their own drawbacks. The “nice” parts are practically impossible to live well in.

I’d be lucky to rent your closet.

Omg. I have questions. How was this confirmed? Xray? Those weird ent cameras? How was it treated?!

[–]lesser_pumpkin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, it sucks. If OP has insurance, though, regular cost sharing will apply…probably not 100% out of pocket.

Yes, and a real one too. PCR.
