  • I’ve done similar things with my fiancee. She’s extremely emotive and oblivious though, so it makes it easy on me to notice stuff that is either bothering her or that she wants. When I go to the store alone I usually get her whatever candy she was eyeing last time we went together. She still doesn’t know how I know what she was craving.







  • The markets insane unfortunately. You can still find solid deals abroad though. I visited Japan and picked up all the original Gameboy Pokémon cartridges for 100 bucks total. Red, blue, green, yellow, gold and silver. All working and in like new condition. Got a mint original n64 controller plus rumble pack in Mexico for 8 bucks.



  • You would need to screw the plywood into the roof so it doesn’t shift around and damage stuff during the whole process, nobody is gonna wanna do that. Boom lifts are ocassionally used for extremely tall properties but they add to the price. You’re forgetting the biggest issue though, liability. My company stopped doing fumigations cause of the liability involved. Getting the plywood on the roof is gonna take a lot of effort and more than just a boom lift, you’re gonna need huge slabs of it to properly cover panels, I don’t know if you’ve seen them but they’re not small. They usually cover significant portions of the roof.

    At that point it would just be cheaper to pay a company to remove them and reinstall vs all that other effort.

    If there was a better way the companies would do it to make money. There just isn’t unless the owner is willing to shell out and many aren’t, even the rich ones and we work with A LOT of rich people. They own million dollar homes and have multiple homes all over the area.






  • I don’t we were ever at a time where sharing your faith respectfully was problematic. We were and are always in the phase where people sharing and using their faith as an excuse to be a dick is problematic.

    If someone is religious but they’re chill with my people and the lgbt community then I’m chill with them.


  • My issue with Scarlet funnily enough is that she’s Scarlet. She’s too big of a star to really meld into the majors role. I just felt like I was watching black widow on screen. Sorta spoilers for anyone who cares but

    Tap for spoiler

    the majors body is full on robot so technically she could be any nationality and color but it would have fit better if they picked someone who fit her original motif since it sorta matters. With the whole, ghost in the machine thing. I’m a huge fan of the franchise and I’m sad that this was the big live action debut.




  • It’s survivorship bias combined with easily accessible media. Plenty of people died young back then but if it wasn’t family or close friends you might not have heard of it until years and years later if at all. Some might assume friends just drifted away, it’s life.

    Same with appliances. People say old appliances were significantly better, and I understand in certain areas they might have been but if they were truly so great why aren’t old appliances all over the play, plenty of old people still alive that wouldn’t have bought new appliances just because.
