Things I Wish I Knew Before I Bought My First Home

Buying your first home is one of the biggest milestones in life. You picture yourself walking through the front door of your house, decorating it just the way you want, and having a place to finally call your own. While owning a home is definitely rewarding, the process of getting there can be a bit of a rollercoaster. Looking back, there are so many things I wish I had known before buying my…

Power down your bills. Which of my household appliances cost the most and least to run?

Understanding your household energy consumption can significantly impact your budget and environmental footprint. While the initial purchase price of appliances is a major factor, the ongoing operational cost often overshadows it over the appliance’s lifespan. This post helps you identify which appliances in your home are the biggest energy guzzlers and which are the most economical to…

I decided to take a serious social media break after the tiktok ban. I was devastated by the ban, then equally devastated that it became trumptok upon return.

I deleted it off my phone. I do have rednote, but it's not the same. I deactivated facebook and instagram. I am done.

I refuse to be sucked into an anxious angry hole for the next four years, like I was for his first four. I am terrified of the future now, so I have to take a break.

Instead of spending my time scrolling, I am focusing on learning new things, spending time with family and friends, experiencing life.

Here is what I've done so far!

I got a breadmaker for xmas. I am having the most fun with this thing! I have made four loaves so far, three white bread and one cinnamon raisin.

I joined Costco for the savings of bulk buying, and I have a new appreciation for cooking at home.

I am taking it back to basics, depression era shit. Baking bread, making hearty beef and bean soups, Rice and beans based dishes aplenty!

I look forward to dusting off my camera and going out into nature. I am excited to finally finish the half dozen craft projects I have started. I am itching to get my seeds planted indoors, in preparation for the spring.

We will survive a trump presidency. We just have to look inward. Stick together. We got this!

every time I see a child (of any age) being treated badly while back to school shopping I just want to carry them away like the Child Catcher from Chitty Chitty Bang Bang but instead of doing whatever it was the Child Catcher did with the children, I give them wonderful years of their youth and make back to school shopping for them a fun, positive experience

if back to school shopping was miserable for you, just know I'm going back in time and treating you so nicely and we're looking at the fun-shaped erasers together. you don't know it yet but I'm surprising you with a pack of stickers I saw you looking at that you can put on your binder

Did you know incense are an easy and on a budget way to practice witchcraft?

as an avid salad enjoyer the uk is severely lacking in choice and variety of lettuce and if i’m wrong please correct me so that i can go and buy some. the only lettuce i’ve been able to find so far that isn’t in a mixed bag is romaine, iceberg, and little gem and they all suck

i’m particularly a fan of soft leaves but i’ve mainly been looking for: gentilinia, butterhead, oak leaf, lamb’s lettuce (i beg), brentwood, solano. i am a desperate man

I actually could support public education in a different day and age. A quality education for lesser-privileged kids is one huge key to success for any community that wishes to flourish. I do understand Thomas Jefferson's passion for it.

The problems with it arose when it became 1. compulsory, 2. industrialized, and 3. federalized.

And the reasons it won't work today as in the past are because 1. kids can get a higher quality, cheaper education at home, 2. communities today are so diverse in values that the taxpayers would never be able to vote on good curricula, and 3. teacher education consists mainly of classroom management, not actual doctrine or pedagogy (and they aren't even permitted to manage their classrooms).

"You pray? Still?"

"Stopped a few times over the years, but always end up coming back to it."

The Daredevil is a form of worship. Hero worship, a hero's worship.

Ashes to ashes, dust to dust

You'll rise again, in this I'll trust

The first to shed blood and die in this series, the Born Again series, was Foggy.

In Catholicism, the blood and the body cleanses and saves. Body and blood are necessary for communion, a ritual practice of sacrament, of worship and resurrection. Foggy, who didn't want to give Matt an excuse to go out and practice, is the blood. Daredevil is the body that sheds the blood.

Can't complete the sacrament, the act of worship, without both body and blood.

Can't have Daredevil without Foggy.

I don't think Foggy is actually dead. It was a smoke and mirrors show. Bullseye sure seemed like a goner too, but he got back up. Foggy specifically says he's not telling Matt the whole truth, hiding critical information. The episode is called "heaven's half hour", as the bartender says: may you be in heaven a half hour before the devil knows you're dead.

Foggy's gonna have half an hour in heaven before being dragged back to Hell's Kitchen. Daredevil's gonna get his missing piece back just like Karen brought back his missing helmet piece, the missing piece crucial to making it a devil's pair of horns.

Foggy's been missed, missing--gone--lapsed, but like a lapsed Catholic, he's always meant to come back.

Bullseye has to be in on it. He never misses, he shot two randos through the head but chose to get Foggy in the heart. Why'd he agree to go to jail for Foggy? He could have shot Karen easy too, but didn't--was that a dramatic choice or was he setting himself up for Daredevil to catch? If he's in on Foggy's not-death, then getting caught must have been part of the plan. Why???

There should be a rule that if anywhere in your 'I made this for just 8 bucks!' thrift video you mention you mention supplementing the purchased fabric with 'Stuff you just had lying in your stash' I should be allowed to come and confiscate your fabric stash until you understand that even though you bought it last year, it still cost you money that factors into a project's final price.
