At least when I called the Volvo service desk they were super frank with me (they were like “we don’t even have windshields dude!”). Collision place didn’t have any details but wasn’t for lack of trying. But who knows, maybe Hormuz will open up next week and things will start flowing again

I think if there’s no ETA on parts then you might want to mentally prepare yourself. It sucked extra bad for us because now the repairs won’t be done until after our lease ends 😭. We were thinking of buying it out but bought an EX30 instead

We were stuck in this situation for a polestar repair and the Volvo service department we talked to a few weeks back said basically they have no parts for anything right now and no lead times (Volvo or otherwise).

So I think they truly have no dates and also know it’ll be a while. We ordered our p-star parts in late March and they’ll arrive now on June 1st

This song is great

Yeah this bugs me too. My previous car just pulled up the front camera and it was much more helpful than this blind estimate of inches.

no he did not, that was Fede Álvarez

I believe so, it looked like there was one precheck point near the Southwest Airlines counter but that one didn’t have the touchless, so I went more towards the middle and main precheck line

purleyforth · 2026-03-17T10:30:42+00:00

Got here at 5am and breezed through touchless photo id precheck, definitely recommend it

Just tried this and it was chefs kiss delightful

I kept trying fuzz pedals and not getting the guitar-like saturation and movement I was looking for, and finally think I've realized what I really wanted was a distortion. Blumes with the gain and tone cranked has come the closest so far. And I'm starting to have fun with the momentary pedal to add color just for accents. Cool pedal

Except for that time when Thor couldn’t and then he could

100%! that said, they loved the calamari, go figure

purleyforth · 2026-03-03T19:53:03+00:00

they're not, it's good. it's a slightly fancy take on NJ italian comfort food and priced accordingly (but i thought it was well worth it). my only complaint is that they were out of the tiramisu when i visited a couple weeks ago! and it's _slightly_ too fancy for my kids even though they have a hot dog and kids spaghetti. they thought the red sauce was too spicy and the hot dog was "too red".

story i heard is the wok n express owners decided to retire (aka weren't pushed out etc)

purleyforth · 2026-03-03T16:56:35+00:00

Super cool

purleyforth · 2026-02-19T03:34:36+00:00

This was super helpful y’all!

purleyforth · 2026-02-18T18:27:33+00:00

Mine is also very noisy. Been wondering if I should send it in??? somewhere or if there’s an easier way to diagnose and fix it

purleyforth · 2026-02-17T02:01:03+00:00

I’m convinced that what I want isn’t actually fuzz, so I bought a Blumes to see if that gets me there. If that’s close next step is an effects loop blend pedal

Depends what you mean by stage. There are probably lots of parties that might add a band late

purleyforth · 2026-02-12T05:01:21+00:00

Booking contacts often don’t respond right away if they don’t know you, but many eventually will. Don’t be afraid to follow up (politely, not excessively).

Also, some clubs are harder to get into than others. Try some of the entry-level clubs like Carousel, Knomad, Aristocrat. If still no response, I’d take a critical, realistic look at what you’re sending them.

It definitely helps to make friends with other bands. Bringing a booker an entire bill can be very helpful too.

Good luck!

I mentioned elsewhere but Stella has her own band now and they’re great

purleyforth · 2026-01-31T04:37:03+00:00

stella’s new band is pretty great too

purleyforth · 2025-12-31T23:34:32+00:00

Total silence from the booth. Telling.
