- Comment on When voting for judges in elections, how are you supposed to know which are good? (Since none of them publicly express their political opinions, judges are *supposed* to be neutral) 5 days ago:
Yeah this has been the most reliable method for me. They’ll usually tout endorsements and those folks are usually easier to get a read on. Otherwise, try to find news stories or blue voter guides that mention them.

Another reason not to use their platform
- Comment on How your showerhead and fridge got roped into the culture wars 2 months ago:
High Sierra shower heads are awesome. Installed them in each of our bathrooms. Feels like a rain shower, with more pressure then our previous stock shower head while still saving water. Win-win. They also manufacture them in small town in the foothills of the Sierra mountains which is a pretty cool fact.
- Comment on Airbnb will now show users the total cost of their stay right away 2 months ago:
Yeah they can improve their UX all they want but since their co-founder is part of DOGE and wants to mess with social security, it makes choosing alternatives easier.

- Comment on After years of hearing about it, I finally started playing Timberborn. Great chill city builder. 2 months ago:
This looks pretty cool, thanks for sharing! Definitely a unique spin, always wanted to play as a beaver and just chop down trees and dam rivers.
- Comment on What vacuum should I buy for 66% carpets in 1500sqft condo? Sub $500 2 months ago:
+1 for Shark. Bought one several years ago without thinking much about it. It still works just as well as when I got it despite handling a pretty heavy workload. My dog sheds profusely and tracks in stuff from the yard constantly and we also use it on the cars.
- Comment on In your opinion, which anime has the most badass villains? 2 months ago:
Vicious from Cowboy Bebop. “And you will shed tears of scarlet”

Excited to see this in theaters

Depending on what they like, I’d probably tailor my recommendations i.e. if they’re more into action, drama, comedy, sci-fi, slice of life, etc.
In general though, my go to’s are: Paprika Cowboy Bebop Steins;Gate

- Comment on I love McMaster-Carr's website. 3 months ago:
Yep, their site is a marvel of organization and refreshing in how minimalist it has remained. These days every e-commerce site hits you with email sign up pop-ups, sales banners, etc.

Hyped for this. Hope the music is just as good
- Comment on Google Calendar removes Pride Month and Black History Month 4 months ago:
Remember when they removed “don’t be evil” from their code of conduct back in 2018
- Comment on Reverse Osmosis water system for sink and fridge 4 months ago:
Installed an All American RO from US Water Syatems. Been pretty happy with it, no issues in 2 years and their how-to videos and customer support is excellent if you want to install it yourself. Even bought one for my parents house. The 6 stage version includes a remineralization step, called Livation filter.
- Comment on What is a metaphor you like in your language? 4 months ago:
“El correo de las brujas” translates to “the witches’ mail” and means gossip or rumors. Kind of like “heard it through the grapevine” or a “a little birdie told me”
- Comment on Violet Evergarden Used One Dialogue to Perfectly Sum Up the Goal of the Entire Anime 5 months ago:
The show was great. Would’ve been fine if they left it there instead of ending it with the movie which I though undid a lot of the character growth. But still a good watch
