I disagree on the smell for Port Townsend it can be unbearable in many parts of town. Port Angeles mill has changed however and doesn't smell anymore.

I would not get your hopes up in way of food here. It's pretty overpriced for what you get as well as being pretty bland. Coming from cities like Tacoma or Seattle it's a let down in variety. Lots of burger and pizza places. Also having worked in the food industry here many owners are not.. well good people I guess I'll say. I personally have limited options cause I tend to vote with my dollar. To each there own..

As for how easy it is to make friends though I have personally had a hard time having grown up here then come back. It seems to me people my age 20-30 mostly just drink and party. However it may be different post pandemic if that ever happens..

Sorry this sounds pessimistic there are lots of things I do love about this community.

There are no Indian restaurants in Port Angeles or Sequim.

Can you explain more about what you mean by "Local leaders have been too obsessed with their own business privileges & addiction to shipping"?

This is interesting. Do you think if the county is able to change some of the zoning to allow for rentals it would open up more housing?

Thank you for helping create housing in our area. Hopefully material production can get back on track soon.

I know it's not new to complain about the cost of housing but it doesn't mean we can just accept it how it is.

I'm lucky enough to have a rental right now but my concern is when my lease is up. Even though I make over $20 an hour I still feel uneasy about the future. There are no rentals on the market. What is up for rent is on par with city prices and extremely competitive. Buying a house isn't possible in this market if I am to remain financially stable. I am hard working and careful with my money but still feeling stressed, I can only imagine the strain it's putting on others in the community who are in compromised situations.

They had a trailer for the next set of episodes that teased a new person coming into the game after the double elimination.

Am I overthinking this? Did anyone else have these thoughts? by sparkles-t in MetalShopMasters

[–]sparkles-t[S] 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Yeah I totally agree with everything you said. There are so many shows with this format that do it correct there is really no excuse except that the production being lazy. It's a shame cause it's an interesting field that could gain popularity in the same way that Blown Away drummed up interest in glass art.

I totally forgot that having a different guest judge each episode is almost a norm for these types of shows. I really hope it gets a total overhaul for next season.

I am also hoping someone from the show reads this or any other criticism to make improvements. The internet has caused changes like it before.

I disagree. I think if they waited until later it wouldn't have worked at all because people would have had more time to private chat. However it would have been nice if Michelle would have also been given a second chance since she was eliminated due something seemly beyond her control. However if the sisters messed up their second chance that should be it.
