Meh... Kinda looks like a conference center, and I'd have to sell my prized lintball collection to afford it, never mind the money I'd have to put in to make it presentable.

Once you reach a certain price point most homes look like you've bought a small high end hotel, emptied it, and decided to live in it alone. I've been in the abodes of some quite wealthy people and I would not at all like to live in them.

The Remarkable 2 e-ink reader is pretty nice, but man I wish it had a backlight. It's cool that they're 100% on board with you SSHing in to do things like add fonts though.
Isn't screen illumination like a year 2016 feature? (looks like it originated with the Kindle Paperwhite in 2012)

Doesn't sound too remarkable, then?

japanese/asian style spoons. I make a lot of hearty soups, and this is a superior spoon design vs the regular ole' Western ones. I'm done with those for hearty soup!

I haven't bought it yet but I want the table.

Yes, it's from a realty listing.
i can sell you a couple pasture raised veg tan sheep skins so you can make your own!
i bet it would still be cheaper than buying that designer one.

yes, our cat has a sheepskin bed. fav. spot in the house.
Picked up a half cord mix of oak, cherry, and walnut today before the rain comes. We don't use this to heat our home just for decorative fires around the holidays. Looks well seasoned so it should burn nice and smell good.

you eastern people with your abundant hardwoods... we try to heat mostly with wood. most of the wood out here sucks so i get free logs from yard trees. just got a load of aspen which is not a great burning wood, and lucked out with an ash tree that will be fantastic. I'm usually stuck burning aspen, punky cottonwood, and elm.

read about black plastic cooking utensils being unhealthy, so ordered more silicone cooking utensils and decided to get everything in fun colors. pretty excited. My kitchen is the most colorful room aesthetic wise. It's a white cabinet kitchen but I have tons of color accents from towels to a kosher salt holder to my french press and kettle, etc..

"Normal" spoons are designed to fit easily in your mouth. That type of spoon seems to be designed more for pouring.

I suppose that if you're raised using those it's not an issue but I've always avoided them.

Bought a bunch of colorful silicone cooking utensils. I had a few black plastic cooking utensils I had to throw out due to the potential toxins, so figured I would replace those and add more pops of color in the ktichen.

Turns out there was a big math error in that study. (This doesn't mean black plastic is safe.)

How do you drink from a cup?
You're not stuffing the entire soup spoon into your mouth, you're sipping from an edge. Also the soup spoon isn't just to drink liquid; it's often the carrier for noodles and other solid food.

the conclusion is the same so I feel fine about my explosion of silicone utensils, but as far as studies go, YOU CAN'T HAVE THAT KIND OF FUCKING TYPO!!!!!

I just ordered this stuff. I was debating on it cause I shouldn't be eating candy, but I know I'd regret it if I let the cool season pass without getting any. Some of it has to be ordered in winter, or it'll be a disaster by the time it gets to you due to meltage.
