It’s doable and looks amazing. Bigger pavers are absolutely the way to go. Maybe do 30x30. Unlikely to regret this imho

Richard Dickey MD LSU Urology. Google it.
Dick Dickey. This reality is better than any fiction posted.
For legit rec, would need more discovery to answer. May not be the same MD for any and all things “Urology.”

re: Ketamine Therapy
Posted by BawtHouse on 10/1/25 at 8:26 pm to AUTiger1978
There absolutely is legitimacy to the use of ketamine for therapeutic purposes. It’s like many other medicines. Huge potential for benefit. Long history of abuse. One doesn’t invalidate the other. If you are the patient in this setting, your care should be managed by a general practitioner you trust. Let them make the decision if ketamine therapy is worth pursuing. Its effectiveness is more highly probable in treating certain disorders more so than others.
Don’t start with what you think the solution is. Start by understanding the problem. And let someone more highly qualified than you decide the proper course of treatment for your situation. Whatever it may be. Emphasize getting the diagnosis correct before acting on treatment. Doing so will shorten the time between now and positive outcomes.

There’s nothing to agree or disagree with. It’s factual. Not really up for debate. Oil is subsidized. Taxes pay for all of it. The argument I think Billj is making is that what’s fair for oil should be fair for renewables. Why is it ok for tax dollars to subsidize oil and not renewables?
I’ll add this. If our species’ rate of energy consumption exceeds the earth’s rate of producing fossil fuels, won’t we have to address that? Why not now? Renewables has the math in favor of long terms solutions. Fossil fuels does not.
Agreements and disagreements can be had about how and when. But the why isn’t pretty well cemented at this point.

Mostly true. Which is sad, because there is bad stuff here that needs to be dealt with. Instead, let’s hit warp speed in the wrong direction and go off a cliff. Its dumdum status at this point rowled up by hate and fear of jews. I know plenty. They aren’t so bad lol. But, by all means, let’s keep our focus on an imaginary boogie man instead of staying rooted in reality.

Very few disagree that pedos should be found and prosecuted.
Spiraling out with assumptions and conspiracy theories is when it gets dangerous. By all means, press hard to have Epstein files released. All for that.
But for the love of god, please stop treating big assumptions as if they are facts. It’s very dangerous to fall off that cliff. The message gets lost and loses credibility when it’s shrouded in conspiracy and huge leaps of assumption.
Push for what matters. Release the files. Prosecute. But stick to facts and stop floating off into conspiracy world that is almost certainly not true.

Who needs facts when you have a great story, amirite?
You have managed to mount multiple conspiracy theories on top of each other.
1. Trump is a pedophile that knew what Epstein was doing and was part of it. Ok, there circumstantial evidence to make that leap IF YOU ADMIT you are making an assumption. You are not. You are acting like this is fact.
2. You managed to level up the kookiness by pulling Israel conspiracy into it. That requires another big assumption(of which there are zero facts to support) that Israel controlled Epstein, he was an asset, and it was all part of an elaborate plan. Ok, Israel is smart as frick, so it is possible(the beeper thing opened a lot of our eyes to capabilities). But, again, there is zero evidence to support this at all.
3. You leveled up the dumdum again. Now the assumptive leap is that our entire government is controlled by Israel. This has become a regular talking point, and it’s absolutely ridiculous. There is zero evidence to support it.
The problem is that this is where we are now as a country. A good narrative is more important than facts. Start seeking facts and stop parroting ridiculous stories that have no factual basis is reality. I’m not saying horrible crap doesn’t happen in this world. There is plenty of it. What you are doing caused a distraction to the real problems we need to fix. You are part of the real problem.

re: Christian Evangelicals? You cool with Israel running a blackmail pedophile ring in U.S.?

Let’s just be clear.
If someone makes an accusation, and you can’t disprove that accusation, we are to take that to mean the accusation is true?
The entire argument for this is based on a premise that is nothing more than an accusation. There is zero evidence to support the claim being made. There is also zero evidence to disprove it. This doesn’t mean it is true.
We now live in a country that largely doesn’t value truth any more. Pretending to value truth while screaming about conspiracy theories that have zero evidentiary support is where we are. And it’s dangerous. We are intellectually devolving as a people at the same time AI is starting to seep into our daily lives.
The future generations won’t understand the concept of truth like those that came before us did. And that’s incredibly sad for our species.
The boogie man continues to reign king in many of your lives, and the multiple forms of the boogie man are robbing you of your free thinking, time you should be enjoying your families, and worse.

re: So..got in a fight with the wife tonight…
Posted by BawtHouse on 6/27/25 at 12:31 am to SquatchDawg
Step back and assess what she truly values at this point. Learn what leverage you have. I don’t mean it in a bad way. Manipulating a situation to better her and your family is honorable and respectful. Find the leverage and use it, ethically, to get her into therapy with you. And do a ton of research to make sure you pick a very good and well established therapist. Not Bobby Sue’s aunt’s neighbor.
It will be hard for her to hear you. A third party unbiased observer that is well trained is your best bet. Don’t go at it alone. Seek help. Quality help. A bad therapist is worse than no therapist.
She probably has not properly dealt with the loss and trauma. It can eat someone from the inside out. Most people avoid it, which is the worse thing to do. That doesn’t make it go away. It allows it to fester beneath the skin. Get infected. And can destroy both the mind and body.
Please know that as bad as it feels like things are right now, they could be far worse. Your timing is spot on to intervene. You are going through a very difficult time. Your wife, the love of your life, is also going through a very difficult time. She has experience significant loss. And it sounds like her Dad gave her major trauma that is now wrapped up in loss.
A first step might be to write her a letter(you could also show her the post you made teaching out for help on TD—-where the % of real and non tldr responses will be a bit low). Pour your heart out. But write this letter in a way that she will best receive it. Write it for her eyes and heart and not from your fist and gut. Wait a few days, and then read it. Make sure the wording is not aggressive. You don’t want her to get defensive when reading it. However, you can make your points. Come from love. And sadness. And fear.
A letter lets you carefully script your message and wording to land softly and most effectively. Start by telling her things you love about her. Then tell her things you miss about her. Express yourself. And make sure to end the letter with hope. Knowing you are hopeful things will get better is key(and it implies there is another direction this can go—-which is likely some leverage you have).
I’m very sorry you are going through this. My heart goes out to you and your family. May better times be soon upon you.

So, just to be clear. You thought Oct 7th was ok?
Or you just feel that the FO portion is too much for the FA? Maybe don’t FA. Israel has always been abundantly clear it will not respond proportionally. 100x response is a minimum deterrent, especially when the other side doesn’t value human life. Accuse them of plenty of things, but bluffers they are not.

Lmao that’s not what happened. Revisionist history. Remember the beepers and walkie talkies? Remember the entire management hierarchy of Hezbollah getting wiped out in like a week. Not only was Israel beyond impressive, they were wildly efficient.
How on Earth can you claim that was “to a standstill?” What planet do you live on?

The vast majority of the Iranian populace is far more like us than the ruling class in Iran. It’s why civil war is the likely easiest path forward to changing Iran. Netanyahu continues to speak directly to the Iranian people about this. And it pisses Iran leaders off because it is the thing they fear the most.
re: Regime change in Iran possible per Netanyahu. Main nuclear site destroyed
Posted by BawtHouse on 6/15/25 at 12:07 pm to BluegrassCardinal
It’s a little more complicated than people want to acknowledge for us(US).
If someone that lives in a house down your street was publicly chanting “Death to BlueGrassCardinal’s family,” and had been paying, training, and motivating multiple other neighbors to beat up your kids, wife, and you for many many years…would you ignore it if you understood they were about to take possession of a bomb big enough to blow up your home after many years of trying to get possession of this home while threatening you and attacking you through neighbor proxies all those years. You would ignore that? You wouldn’t consider and threaten do take action to stop it? You wouldn’t consider just wait until your house explodes to do something?
Now consider that Iran sees US and Israel as the same. We both must be wiped from the face of the Earth according to the extremists that run Iran right now. They say it out loud. You don’t have to assume. “Death to America.” The ruling class has been very very clear what they want. The majority in Iran does not agree. This is also why civil war is an almost certainty at some point in Iran. The majority there are progressive.
It’s a pretty good analogy. Seriously, what would you do?

re: Iran and the narrative
Posted by BawtHouse on 6/13/25 at 8:06 am to scottydoesntknow
You are living up to your name quite well. The vast majority of Iranians are progressive and more western thinking. The ruling class, however, are extremist. The ruling class and government are built on a foundational mandate that Israel(and the West) must be destroyed. It’s not a hidden truth. They have been attacking Israel nonstop for a very long time through many proxies. Don’t be ignorant. Do a modicum of research.
There has been a serious fear by the ruling class of civil war within Iran due to the gross difference in beliefs between the vast majority of the people and the ruling class. It’s why they control the masses with horrific punishments.
Make no mistake about it. Those in power in Iran wish nothing more than to erase Israel(and then America) from the map and true genocide of both Israelis and us.

Just about everyone here knows better. Knows what you are. I suspect you are on a few government lists by now.
Remember when Israel was just starting to retaliate with Hamas, and you stuck your neck out there saying Israel can’t handle Hezbollah. And how mighty Hezbollah was? And how Hezbollah would defeat Israel? And on and on.
I remember. And then I remember shortly after that Hezbollah FAFO and Operation Pager Boom Boom happened. Followed by Operation Walkie Talkie Boom Boom. Both Operations coming on the heels of one of the most efficient and successful military operations in history to eliminate the head of the snake and just about the entire middle and upper ranks beneath Nasrallah. Wrecking comms, sowing chaos, and basically going 52/52 of the deck of cards within a few weeks. Some would argue it was a work of art, from a military operations perspective.
Do you remember all that crap you were talking? How’s all that going for you buddy?
Causation is where this stupid shite always hits the wall. Just because someone is taking a xyz medicine and develops a condition does NOT mean that xyz caused that condition.
