The kitchen and kitchen equippment has always been our main source of household item arguments since she thinks I have too much stuff and too many spices but I'm the one cooks 95% of the time and I know what I use.

Leperflesh posted:We've got some medical goons here, I'm reading that in a cardiac arrest situation you'd intubate in most any situation so "not breathing on his own" really is just consistent with administering CPR? E.g. it's not actually information about his condition other than what we already know - that he needed CPR? This is what my SO is telling me, yeah. She also said that once they get him to the hospital he’ll go on a vent and be in a medically induced coma until at least tomorrow. We’re not going to know any more tonight it seems.

kiimo posted:The flint hills are okay? Otherwise yep. Just awful until you see Pike's Peak Yeah the Flint Hills are nice. The constant wind , and the noise, and the oppressive sun though… We planned this leg to kick off from KC because last year we did both Missouri and Kansas on the last day and I felt like I had aged 10 years by the time we got home. 12 hours of this is just too much to withstand. Dango Bango posted:You're a beer drinker, right? Check out Athletic Brewing's line of NA beers. They absolutely scratch the beer itch for me. They were crucial for cravings when I first decided to stop drinking. Athletic is the best NA beer I’ve ever had. I keep a couple of sixers around for when I feel like having a drink but don’t want the alcohol. Some of them you can legitimately forget that it’s NA until you’re two-thirds through it and aren’t feeling anything.

LeeMajors posted:It’s weird how easily the daily habit can creep up. I was a social drinker for 20+ years and the isolation of Covid + mid- to late-30s dad interpersonal friendship fade just started turning up the loneliness and boredom. Before I knew it was knocking down 4-5 beers a night without even getting intoxicated, purely as habit. It’s wild how differently people react to the same stressors. When the first wave of COVID hit I pretty much gave up drinking entirely. I’ve always been more of a social drinker anyway, but the first night after I had 3 or 4 and woke up the next day to what was still basically hell on earth, I decided the Whisky Psychic Damage Multiplier wasn’t worth it.

They aren’t going to tell 330 million people to all go out and buy a new stove at once.

My kitchenaid is also having issues. Something seems to trip when you’re turning it on; if you don’t move from the lowest setting to a higher one in just the right way it’ll stop running, but turning it off “resets” it. It’s an expensive enough gadget that I want to get it repaired but actually putting in the effort to find a place to do it is, well

Yeah Sears is a case study in managerial malpractice and the ills of vulture capitalism. It took a lot of bad decisions over a long period of time for it to wind up where it did. Also thanks for the info on the stand mixer, Leper. I’ll look up the service manual and see what I can figure out. ^ Oh the Sears in Columbia, MD closed off its 2nd floor and it became one of those entertainment and arcade centers. It had a bowling alley. You could hear it. All of the employees looked like they wanted to die.

3 DONG HORSE posted:The mall near my house is thriving and I'm happy for it. I never go because I have Amazon Prime but I'm glad. Yeah the local Denver mall is always hopping, but it’s also full of higher-end retail and is situated in an incredibly rich area with a lot more walkable (also stupidly expensive) retail and restaurants. I think the years where a mall could be filled with EB Games, Suncoast, and Claire’s is well behind us.

Finally got to catch up and watch Glass Onion tonight, and think I agree with what a lot of others said here about the first being better, but it was still very entertaining. I think that what worked so well in the first was the framing of Blanc as potentially an antagonist to Marta, before his character is reframed sometime in the middle of the movie. There’s a similar character change in this one but it isn’t as strong. It’s still pretty well done though and I think I would watch Craig read the phone book as Benoit Blanc at this point.
