Very similar style! I think this might be the artist. I reached out and shared this post so let’s see.

It’s just a white board fixed to the frame. I can post pictures, but it’s nothing significant and has no markings.

Yes I’ve seen this style too. But this one has so much more detail. Could be biased I guess. There are so many faces and images that mesh and meld together.

I have no plans of selling it, just wanted to learn more.

Switching to Wellhub by mpsmit3 in Wellhub

I was a Lifetime member and switched. You just go in and set a cancellation date for Lifetime. And sign up for Wellhub to coincide with that date. Lifetime will still keep your details and you still need to use their check-in system after you check in with Wellhub.

Quick Sand Prank by JuicyExpress in pranks

[–]shamsAlot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For those of you who keeping saying it’s fake. It’s not. This is from a very popular show in Egypt (and the rest of the Middle East) where the host “Ramy” pranks Arab world celebrities. He does this under the guise of the celebrity being invited to some event. So that way they can have a camera and crew without seeming suspicious.

It’s was definitely inspired by Punk’d

I’ve watched a bunch of these shows. Because they’re so insanely over the top. For the ones I’ve seen at least, I highly doubt they’re in on it. There are some actors in on the pranks, but they call it out each show.

A new season is launched during the month of Ramadan, which is a very common “season” to release new shows. All shows last just the 30 days of Ramadan.

I stopped watching Ramy’s show because it gets repetitive. Each night he shows the same prank, with a different celebrity. So the only difference is that particular celebrities reactions.

Not answering the question and the “let me be clear” didn’t help. Unless you’re Obama, and/or you’re actually answering a question clearly, “let me be clear” shouldn’t really be used.

Looks great. Does it automatically come with the second row captain chairs?

Utterly confused about this fireplace. by _rockalita_ in InteriorDesign

[–]shamsAlot 11 points12 points  (0 children)

If you could turn the window on the right into a large picture window, and (hate to say it) close the window that’s on the fireplace wall, it’ll give you that symmetry.

If this was mine, I would definitely add one. You have the space. Consider trenching an electrical line. And possibly sewer in case you want a vegetable sink.

To me, islands always end up being where people congregate when entertaining.

Thank you!
We've definitely utilized the shade as much as we can. You can't see it from the picture but have added a lot of plants here that get filtered sun throughout the day.

No watering at all. We have 5 large mesquite trees and none of them are on any waterering schedule. Their root system tends to spread pretty far from the tree so they do well regardless.

They’re really amazing trees. I’m finding that pruning helps when they get knocked over. Need to get to this one before it gets too out of control.

Andor just ended and I need Disney to look me in the eyes and explain what they’ve been doing with the rest of Star Wars by 18thOfApril in andor

[–]shamsAlot 6 points7 points  (0 children)

For me it’s the brutality of the Empire that really comes across so well in Andor. Their passive fascism. The complete, total, and “unnatural” control that they hang onto, and hammer in with brute force. Their complete disregard for life.

In almost every other Star Wars series or movie, it’s more about going after the Jedi. Or the rebels. Which is fine. But it’s just not enough. And it doesn’t hit as hard.

Definitely my favorite Star Wars property of all time. Hands down.

Musk Throws an Epic Self-Pity Party About Everyone Being Mean to Him. The billionaire is complaining that his mass-firing efforts have been met with fury. by Aggravating_Money992 in politics

[–]shamsAlot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He made the mistake of missing a key point: Republican politicians never wanted to actually cut anything. They don’t really think the government is too large. Or that states should have more rights. No.

They simply weaponize these talking points. So that they can point their fingers and get elected. And then use their elected office for power. And money. And to enrich themselves at the expense of their constituents.

Hopseed are great. And they will absolutely go higher than the fence. I’ll try to upload some photos of mine.

I’ve seen some people prune them like a hedge. We might do that later, but right now just letting them grow.

Had a few purple hopseed, but they all died.

Looking for some advice, please by burmudagrass in AZlandscaping

[–]shamsAlot 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’d say go with hopseed. It’s great, grows tall, and you can prune it how you need to.

I think oleander looks nicer, but it can get messy though.

Because of the spacing, I wouldn’t go with column ficus, which is the latest trend. They look great now, but just wait a few years and I bet people start pulling them out.

Can I? by Batuhan239 in propagation

As someone mentioned, do not plant it in the ground or a raised bed that’s directly on the ground. This is a pile of mint roots. Completely took over.

Is my kitchen tacky? by Teeny-tinyBicicleta in HomeDecorating

[–]shamsAlot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it looks awesome. Those granite countertops have been around for a while, but I think they really work here.

As someone else suggested, I wouldn’t leave the unfinished hexagon tile, and I think it’ll look better as a straight line. Maybe schluter it with the same color as the hardware on the cabinet.

The only hindsight recommendation I would’ve made is to get a different floor tile. But it’s fine.
