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…

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

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!

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).

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.

My favorite funny thing on occasion is to imagine sugar baby/daddy dynamics with Tails ships

Something so comical about the fact that Sonic the hedgehog (hedgehog without a home) would be sugar baby to Tails (fox who has so many labs. Like who needs to worry about money when your little buddy pays for stuff heroing doesn't and keeps his bases fully stocked with ingredients for your favorite food

Or like, Tails, who basically ended up being Sonic's sugar daddy, accidentally gaining more sugar babies by virtue of making sure certain characters don't inconvenience people (basically playing damage control)

While I think it's Rouge mainly who would probably suppliment the money for Omega and Shadow (if need be) and play this sort of role for them, it's still funny to imagine Tails insisting on setting them up in hotel rooms because Shadow was just about to sleep outside and saw no problem with that (and because Tails can't very well just let Shadow do that)

A friend of mine also moved that, under this framework, after the idw issues where the Chaotix took a job helping Knuckles get an artifact back, Tails would just silently patch them rent money as an apology for the whole thing.

Rich inventor Tails accidentally gaining bfs out of the main cast as his sugar babies because he's assumed responsibility for their antics and cares about them too much to just let them live life the way they have been. Do you see my vision?
