Harder for the priests to grab at little kids digitally.

From a certain angle, you’d think that America had given up on religion.

Churches and religious institutions gt the most press, but the reality is that virtually ALL traditional social institutions of declining. In fact, most millenials and Gen Z’ers are not actively involved in any kind of In-real-life social community at all.

I used to use Door Dash, but the fees became so bad, I stopped using them over a year ago. I can’t think of any restaurant in my delivery area I want food from so bad, that I would pay 50% more than the amount I ordered in fees and tip.

The Australian ones just all closed down so that doesn’t bode well for this one...

Meanwhile, in paradise (suburb without HOA), you should see my neighbor’s house.

As a one-time buyer/still owner (of a non-HOA home/neighborhood) and non-practicing attorney: there is no legal reason that a prospective buyer can’t obtain a copy of the HOA pre-purchase. If they are going to be subject to the terms of the HOA, then they are de facto part of the purchase agreement and should be…

Cold, late, possibly wrong all for the low low price of 100% more than it would have cost me from the restaurant. And all that to not go into the drivers pocket but enrich some dickhead corpo and his VC vulture investors. Piss up a rope you leeches. 

I’ll go ahead and be “that guy.” My response is, meh. Most condo associations have a contract with a tow company. They scoop up cars that don’t display the right passes, stickers, whatever. Residents parking two vehicles in guest parking is a douchy move. So they’re so poor they can’t pay the impound fees, but the can…

I grow both in my garden. To me, they are virtually indistinguishable by taste. Curly leaf might be a little stronger. If you’re mincing it up for a soup or stew, you can use either one, IMO.

I would add as some one who has worked in real estate for the last 20+ years READ your Restrictions. When you buy a house and have a closing the will give you copies of ALL documents associated with your property, either by default, that’s what we do with a hyperlink or simple ask, they can NOT tell you no. The…

The two cars in question were parked in guest parking spots, not the spots assigned to the owner. Since the time limit for parking in one of those spots was 30 days, I assume the owner would move them from one guest spot to another regularly. This could be called “hogging the guest spots” by some... Imagine what would…

Having a goal of no HOA also makes home buying a lot simpler because it weeds out a lot of houses.  Search results are usually pretty short.

This. And if you have an HOA, ffs show up to the meeting(s). I’m a first time home owner. My HOA has a single annual meeting just to get the budget approved for simple stuff like lawn mowing service for spaces that aren’t owned by any one person.

I put cilantro in a lot of stuff. I really like it. My parents also live with me and I do the cooking (and have for years). About six months ago, I made carnitas and my dad asked if next time I could “leave the green stuff out.” No problem, I said, but out of curiosity, what does it taste like to you? “I don’t know.…

What is strange for me is that I used to hate it, and think it tasted like soap. But now I love it! I plant it in the herb garden so I don’t have to buy the big bunches. By trimming it judiciously I usually get half a season before it bolts. I planted this years crop about 5 weeks ago and so far it’s just leaves and…

I always thought these rude concept restaurants were stupid; there’s enough nastiness in the world.

team cilantro for life 

I’ve never quite understood how people keep using these services. You pay $25 for what would cost you $12 at the restaurant (to eat in or pick up yourself), and then you get to eat it cold. It also always seemed shady to me that when you order through some of these services, that they change the prices for the food in…
