How the Federal Reserve’s Next Move Could Impact the New Hampshire Seacoast Housing Market
September Housing Market Update: What the Federal Funds Rate Cut Means for Portsmouth Homeowners and Sellers As we move into September, all eyes are on the Federal Reserve (the Fed), with widespread expectations that they’ll cut the Federal Funds Rate at their upcoming meeting.

I love looking at the differences in typical house design around the country
Like in the south there are no basements, but that’s a pretty standard fixture of houses up north, so you end up with twice the square footage if it’s finished
On the other hand, style varies hugely. New Hampshire has some of the saddest box shaped houses I’ve ever seen
#they were like here’s your box to live in#we cut some holes in it for you#I’m not moving to New Hampshire but it was briefly on the list last summer when we did our annual#why the fuck do we still live here? reaction to the first week over 100F#.txt

unfortunately, worse than being america centric and assuming everyone is american, i am east coast centric where i assume not only that everyone lives in america but that everyone specifically lives on the east coast in my time zone.
#only after being explicitly made aware of our time zone differences will i understand where people are.#people of different ethnicities that are listed in their bio i just assume are immigrants into eastern standard time#“lebanese” omg interesting you live in new jersey to me#“latina” congrats you are living in cuba i mean miami#“european” that is great you get to pick between new hampshire and like virginia or nc#the west coast isn't real LA is not a real place#maybe the one exception is like texas but cutting it close#i have been to almost 30 countries in my short lifetime and still have this stupid ass sense of eastcoast centricity#alas#.whispers from the void

5 Easy Grocery Shopping Tips to Help You Save Time & Money
Shopping at a grocery store has several advantages over other forms of food shopping. Grocery stores offer a wide variety of fresh produce, meats, dairy products, and other items at competitive prices. Additionally, grocery stores are convenient and allow customers to create their grocery lists to ensure they get all the items they need in one trip. Grocery stores also offer delivery services or curbside pickup for those who don’t have time to shop in person. Shopping at a grocery store is an easy and convenient way to get your food needs taken care of quickly and efficiently.
Tip 1: Making a Grocery List and Sticking to it
Making a grocery list and sticking to it is one of the most important steps in meal planning and grocery budgeting. It helps you plan out your meals for the week, stick to your budget, and make sure that you don’t overspend on groceries. Having a grocery list also ensures that you get all the ingredients that you need for a recipe without having to make multiple trips to the store. Making an organized grocery list can help save time, and money, and reduce food waste.
Tip 2: Take Advantage of coupons and Special Deals
Taking advantage of coupons and special deals can be a great way to save money when shopping for food. Coupons can be used to reduce the cost of groceries and store specials can help you find discounted products. With the right combination of coupons and specials, you can save a significant amount of money on your grocery bill. Additionally, taking advantage of these offers will also help you stay within your budget.
Tip 3: Shopping for Fresh Produce & Bulk Foods
Shopping for fresh produce and bulk foods can be a daunting task. It requires knowledge of the best sources, what is in season, and how to properly store it. However, with the right knowledge and resources, anyone can shop for fresh produce and bulk foods with ease. By understanding the different types of products available, learning how to store them properly, and finding reliable sources for purchasing them, shoppers can find the freshest produce and bulk foods at a great price. With these tips in mind, shopping for fresh produce and bulk foods will become an enjoyable experience that yields delicious results.
Tip 4: Buying in Season & Knowing When to Buy Generic Brands
Knowing when to buy groceries in season and when to buy generic brands can save you a lot of money. When you buy in season, you get the freshest produce at the lowest prices. On the other hand, buying generic brands is a great way to save money on everyday items like canned goods and paper products.
By understanding when it’s best to buy in season and when it’s better to purchase generic brands, you can significantly reduce your grocery bill each month.
Tip 5: Reducing Waste & Saving Money with Meal Planning & Re-purposing Leftovers
Meal planning and re-purposing leftovers are two effective ways to reduce food waste and save money. Meal planning helps you to plan your meals so that you can buy only the ingredients needed for the meal. This will help to reduce food waste as you won’t be buying more than what is necessary. Re-purposing leftovers is another great way to save money and reduce waste. With a few simple recipes, you can turn your leftovers into delicious meals that are both economical and tasty!
With these strategies in place, grocery shopping doesn’t have to be a hassle anymore – start saving time and money today!

Friendly reminder that almost half of the states in the U.S. have same day registration! This means you can go to the polling center for your location, register there, and cast your vote same day. So if you are over 18, are a U.S. citizen, and live in one of the states listed below, it is not too late to register and vote! I’m going to put notes for some of the states where voting is extra important due to the political climate of the state. *Please note that every state has its own rules and requirements for same day registration and voting, some are only for early voting, or have very specific ID requirements. Make sure to research your state specifically before showing up to the polls
California
Colorado
Connecticut
D.C.
Hawaii
Idaho
Illinois
Iowa - recent polls indicate state could flip from red to blue
Maine
Maryland
Michigan - swing state! Could go red or blue!
Minnesota
Montana
Nevada - swing state! Could go red or blue!
New Hampshire
New Mexico
North Carolina - swing state! Could go red or blue - same day registration allowed only for early voting
North Dakota - voter registration not required
Utah
Vermont
Virginia
Washington
Wisconsin - swing state! Could go red or blue
Wyoming
You can go here for more info on voter registration
I also have a huge list of voting resources here

The election doesn’t start tomorrow, it ends tomorrow.
If you haven’t already, please make sure you are registered to vote and know where your polling place is (vote.org is a great and easy way to get that information). Additionally, please make sure you have a way to get to your polling place. Uber and Lyft often give free or discounted rides to the polls, and this year the car rental company, Hertz, is allowing free one-day rentals to get to the polls. More information on that here.
EDIT: NAACP has a discount code to use for Lyft, valid for two rides up to $20 ($40 total). Use code: NAACPVOTE24
The following states allow same day registration for general elections, ie: the presidential election:
California
Colorado
Washington DC
Hawaii
Idaho
Illinois
Iowa
Maine
Maryland
Michigan
Minnesota
Montana
Nevada
New Hampshire
New Mexico
Utah
Vermont
Virginia
Washington
Wisconsin
Wyoming
Note: North Dakota does not require formal voter registration, and upon presenting valid identification at a polling place, eligible citizens receive their ballot to vote.
all info here
The following states are required by law to give you time off to vote (between one and three hours):
Alabama
Alaska
Arizona
Arkansas
California
Colorado
Georgia
Illinois
Iowa
Kansas
Kentucky
Maryland
Massachusetts
Minnesota
Missouri
Nebraska
Nevada
New Mexico
New York
Ohio
Oklahoma
South Dakota
Tennessee
Texas
Utah
West Virginia
Wisconsin
Wyoming
*Most states requiring employers to permit voting leave also require that this time is paid. Among the above, the following do not: Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia, Massachusetts, North Dakota. (info here)
Again, it is your right to vote. If you are in line when the polls close, stay in line. It is your legal right to vote.
If you are turned away at the polls, say the following verbatim: “Give me a provisional ballot with a receipt as required by law.”
If you make a mistake on your ballot, you have the right to ask for a new ballot. Don’t cross anything out, simply ask for a new one.
Poll workers are required to make reasonable accommodations for voters who need, including ballots in other languages or translators.
Canvassing is not allowed at polling places, and no one is allowed to threaten or intimidate voters. You have the right to report anything of the like.
All info taken from here
Some tips:
Don’t wear political merch to the polls.
Don’t engage with anyone about your politics at the polls.
Don’t take phone calls inside your polling place — it can wait, please be respectful.
Research who is running locally and see what their policies are. Additionally, research any local propositions that may be on the ballot. The language on ballots is made to be purposefully confusing, so make sure you read everything carefully in addition to your research.
If you’re able to get up early on Election Day, go right when your polling place opens to beat the line.
REMEMBER: IT IS YOUR RIGHT TO VOTE!
Here are a list of state-by-state voter protection hotlines, as well as hotlines in various other languages:
Please vote tomorrow if you have not already. It’s so important, and choosing not to vote or voting for a third party is a vote for extremist measures. Vote down the ballot, and do not let anyone bully you into voting one certain way.
What we are seeing throughout this election cycle (and the last two election cycles) is entirely abnormal. The bullying we see from a certain side and its supporters is childish and dangerous. They spew false information, make racist remarks, and sexualize and discriminate fellow candidates. No single presidential candidate is completely and wholly good, so criticize accordingly.
Vote with those you love in mind, vote with your safety in mind, and vote for those who will be affected for decades to come. Vote for someone who speaks coherently, not for someone who is, let’s be honest, not cognitively alright — and that is the bare minimum of the issue.
If you have anything to add to this post, please do. If anything is incorrect, please let me know and I will gladly change it.
Vote. Vote. Vote.

Dandelion News - September 8-14
Like these weekly compilations? Tip me at $kaybarr1735 or check out my new(ly repurposed) Patreon!
1. Pair of rare Amur tiger cubs debuting at Minnesota Zoo are raising hopes for the endangered species
“[The Minnesota Zoo’s] Amur tigers have produced 57 cubs, [… 21 of which] have gone on to produce litters of their own, amounting to another 86 cubs. […] “They’re showing a lot of resiliency, which is something that we work hard for in human care. We want these animals to have a lot of confidence and be able to adapt to new environments just as they’re doing today.””
2. Powered by renewable energy, microbes turn CO₂ into protein and vitamins
“The team designed a two-stage bioreactor system that produces yeast rich in protein and vitamin B9. [… The protein] levels in their yeast exceed those of beef, pork, fish, and lentils. […] Running on clean energy and CO2, the system reduces carbon emissions in food production. It uncouples land use from farming, freeing up space for conservation[… and] will help farmers concentrate on producing vegetables and crops sustainably.”
3. JCPenney Launches Apparel Collection Aimed At Wheelchair Users
“A major department store is rolling out a new line of clothing specifically tailored to meet the needs of women who use wheelchairs featuring options for both everyday wear and special occasions. [… The clothing have] modifications like zippers located for easy access, pocket positioning and extended back rises optimized for the seated position and shorter sleeves to limit interference with wheels.”
4. Snails bred in Edinburgh Zoo sent to re-populate species in French Polynesia
“Thousands of rare partula snails bred at Edinburgh Zoo are to be released in French Polynesia to restore the wild population of the species.The last surviving few of the species were rescued in the early 1990s[….] 15 species and sub-species [are being bred in zoos for repopulation], the majority of which are classed as extinct in the wild.”
5. [NH Joins 19 Other States] to Provide Essential Behavioral Health Services Through Mobile Crisis Intervention Teams
“[CMS] approved New Hampshire’s Medicaid State Plan Amendment for community-based mobile crisis intervention teams to provide services for people experiencing a mental health or substance use disorder crisis. […] The multidisciplinary team provides screening and assessment; stabilization and de-escalation; and coordination with and referrals to health, social, and other services, as needed.”
6. Recovery plan for Missouri population of eastern hellbender
“It is expected that recovery efforts for the Missouri DPS of the eastern hellbender will reduce sedimentation and improve water quality in the aforementioned watersheds, which will also improve drinking water, as well as benefit multiple federally listed mussels, sport fish and other aquatic species.”
7. How $7.3B will help rural co-ops build clean power—and close coal plants
“[The funds are] serving about 5 million households across 23 states [… to] build wind and solar power, which is now cheaper than coal-fired power across most of the country. […] Some of it will be used to pay down the cost of closing coal plants[….] federal funding could help co-ops secure enough wind, solar, and battery resources to retire their entire coal capacity by 2032, cutting carbon emissions by 80 to 90 percent and reducing wholesale electricity costs by 10 to 20 percent[….]”
8. Native-led suicide prevention program focuses on building community strengths
“[Indigenous researchers have] designed programs that aim to build up a community’s endemic strengths, rather than solely treating the risks facing individuals within that community. By providing support and resources that enable access to Alaska Native cultural activities, they hope to strengthen social bonds that build resilience. […] “In a Yup’ik worldview, suicide is not a mental health disorder, and it’s not an individual affliction, it’s a disruption of the collective.””
9. Another rare Javan rhino calf spotted at Indonesia park
“A new Javan rhino calf has been spotted in an Indonesian national park, the facility's head said Friday, further boosting hopes for one of the world's most endangered mammals after two other […] calves were spotted earlier this year at the park, which is the only habitat left for the critically endangered animal.”
10. Transparent solar cells can directly supply energy from glass surfaces
“[Researchers have] unveiled a method of supplying energy directly from glass of buildings, cars, and mobile devices through transparent solar cells. […] It has also succeeded in charging a smartphone using natural sunlight. It also proved the possibility that a screen of a small mobile device can be used as an energy source.”

A stay at the Silver Sands Motel is like walking back into a 1960s vacation. ✨
Complete with a pink exterior and retro-styled rooms, this place couldn’t be more perfect. Along side their motel buildings, they also have beachfront cottages and suites on the property.
I stay at a lot of motels. Most don’t make it to this page. Every once in a while I like to break up the depressing dead motels I post about by sharing an Alive Motel™ that I really love. The Silver Sands has officially made it on my favorites list.
As always, I’ve included a few then/now comparisons, though not much has changed over the years. They removed a few trees and did renovations here and there but ultimately, it looks just like it did upon opening over 60 years ago.
If you find yourself in the lakes region of New Hampshire, I can think of at least one pink motel calling your name.

USA Ballot Measures Nov. 2024
41 states (and Washington DC) have ballot measures this year! Even if your state's electoral college result isn't in question, you may have ballot measures to vote on alongside the presidential election and state-wide elections.
Below the read more link is an alphabetical list of each state with ballot measures. Each state name links to the Ballotpedia.org page for that state's ballot measures, which will be updated with new developments as election day nears (some ballot measures are still tied up in court as of when I'm making this post in late September, so the approved ballot measures may change before you vote). Ballotpedia has information on each ballot measure, including what a yes/no would mean, arguments for and against, who supports/opposes each measure, and the full text of the measure.

#US politics#US election#voting resources#I gathered these links together as my stress fidget while listening to election news podcasts :/#but it was an interesting exercise because there are some WILD ballot measures out there this year#and Ballotpedia also has the campaign finance info so you can see who's funding which measures#which is less of a voting decision factor but IS fascinating gossip
