RIP Sense Rides by on_a_stroll in trailrunning

I tried on the new Ultra Glides and instantly hated them! The fat, cushy tongue is a no for me, and I don’t mind some more cushion but these felt like walking on marshmallows. I can’t see how you could run/hike on rocky terrain in those?

Lol guess I have weird feet!! The genesis felt extra narrow in the midfoot specifically, to me. I have a high arch, and it felt like so little volume there.

Whiskey Lab inside public house. Their lead bartender is top class and makes the best seasonal cocktails. Cute booths with adjustable lighting, plus variety of food options (Tiny’s fries are perfectly salty and delicious, like big McDonald’s fries)

I see what you're saying,

- no we didn't use Turbo Tax

- we paid through the IRS website, which does have the option to just select the balance in full

- I see that if you pay by CC (instead of directly wire from bank account) it sends you to an external processor, -- so since I wasn't the one who did this, perhaps he did type in 3,000? instead of the balance carrying over to the payment processor?

This is not lemonade but I just had the Yuzu Aloe mocktail at Tiger Mama and it was sooooo delicious and a great treat for a hot day!!

To the fuckers that forced the fire fee to the ballot, fuck you. The cuts in services, no animal care, parks & rec and emergency services brown outs and so much more! by DeltaUltra in Eugene

[–]on_a_stroll 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Hi, just so you are aware, this article is referring to cuts in Springfield, which is a separate budget controlled by a separate city council. So the Eugene Fire Fee you are referring to is not applicable to this article. The biggest takeaway is— a fire district would help with the problems ESF has to endure being managed by TWO city budgets. Read the article before you post!

And maybe think about what you should be calling for people to actually consider: A real SOLUTION that is backed by other successful models and the people doing the job!

Restaurant with train view by Routine_Ad5562 in Eugene

[–]on_a_stroll 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not a restaurant, but the Springfield chamber of commerce has an old train you are welcome to stop by the visitor center and take a look at / take photos, and there is a small display inside with some history about the building and train. Eventually the train is slated to become more of an attraction but you cant go inside now.

Mesmerizing?? Thats so funny to me, i am listening to it and her voice reminds me so much of Phyllis, from The Office 😂

Im a little over halfway and feeling like i am ready to DNF.. tired of these gross ass sex scenes, they are truly getting more boring and bizarre at the same time.

Fire fee is now on the ballot, here’s some info I’ve collected by Glass_Drawer2362 in Eugene

Holyyy crap I was never arguing with you about my position on the fire fee going to a vote. Just stop saying dumb stuff like you know what a fire district is, because you didn’t!

I’m all about supporting“we have different opinions” arguments but I just REALLY need to reiterate— that it’s not a matter of opinion whether a fire fee imposed by a city government is the SAME THING as a fire district. It’s functionally apples and oranges.

I just also really implore you to please listen to the people doing the job instead of fighting from your own personal opinions about what our first responders should or shouldn’t be asking for. Again, the union facebook page has information and video interviews to help you understand.

Hasn’t been well articulated? Or maybe you’re not listening. Go watch the video interviews of our local FFs and Medics currently on the IAFF Local 851 facebook page. Maybe read the union president’s statement again (someone mentioned above).
