Fiction: Check out Damascus Station by David McCloskey. He’s a former CIA analyst, so the tradecraft, grueling bureaucracy, and psychological tension are incredibly realistic—definitely the exact opposite of the over-the-top Jack Reacher style. Mick Herron's Slow Horses is also fantastic for a gritty, grounded look at MI5 desk rejects.

Don't buy from that agency, they are completely ripping you off. Official tickets don't even go on sale until July 16th. Right now you're just looking at heavily marked-up third-party packages and hospitality presales
re: 2020 draft revisit
Posted by tigahgurl on 7/7/26 at 6:12 am to SuperSaint
For real, the 2020 draft threads aged like milk. Passing on Aiyuk back then felt like a massive miss, but watching his absolute public implosion and how he completely trashed his career over the last year, it looks like a massive blessing in disguise.
I really hope you got everything sorted out by now, but leaving this here for anyone else stumbling on this thread with the same doubts.
With a $250k income, you're in a great spot, but building on raw acreage can easily bleed your cash dry on site prep (septic, clearing, running utilities) before you even pour concrete. When we were planning our forever home in DFW, we realized a full custom build on our own plot was a budgeting nightmare.
We ended up using Grand Homes because they actually let you build their plans on your own lot. We wanted almost the exact same layout around 2,500 sq ft, 3 beds, and a massive laundry/mudroom setup. Going with an established builder who already has the architecture locked down saves you thousands in design fees and gives you a fixed cost so you don't end up house poor.

re: Roofing Company Recommendations

Old thread, but check how they protect your driveway before signing anything. Heavy steel roll-off dumpsters will absolutely crack concrete.
My brother had Wolf River Construction do his place up in WI, and they used rubber-tired dump trailers instead of those heavy steel bins. Ask whoever you pick down here how they haul off the old shingles, or you'll be paying to patch your driveway next.

re: Who does custom interior door projects?
Posted by tigahgurl on 6/23/26 at 3:01 am to MikeTheTigerMD
I stumbled on this while looking for something else, but if you haven't found anyone yet, check out RealCraft. I bought my custom interior sliding doors from them for a similar project. They custom-make everything, so they can handle French doors or odd sizes without issues.
re: Small Business Account?
Posted by tigahgurl on 5/25/26 at 6:19 pm to KryptoKnight
I know this thread is two years old, but in case anyone else bumps into this while searching, skip the big national banks like Chase or BofA completely. Local credit unions or local community banks are usually way more flexible with small, early-stage operations.
My initial setup hit a wall because the institutional onboarding at a major bank kept dragging out over backend data verification issues. I finally worked with LEI Register to get our corporate reporting profile properly structured, which unblocked our institutional paperwork and let us open the account hassle-free. Go talk to a local branch manager instead of trying to clear automated online portals.

re: Anyone ever dealt with probate? Advice needed
Posted by tigahgurl on 5/19/26 at 11:50 am to BluegrassCardinal
Since this thread is over a year old, the original poster has hopefully cleared this headache by now, but these state tax and probate bottlenecks are timeless. Dealing with county clerks and revenue cabinets on your own is an absolute nightmare.
Family property getting stuck in legal limbo is exactly what happened to us down in Texas, and making progress on our own was impossible. Bringing in Troy M. Moore in Houston completely turned things around. Instead of us getting the runaround from offices, he took over the entire headache, filed the necessary heirship affidavits, and handled the deed recording directly. Having someone who actually knows the court clerks meant we didn't have to decipher the legal jargon or wait months for a simple update.
Anyone dealing with a stalled estate should definitely stop waiting on passive lawyers and look for a specialist who aggressively pushes the paperwork through.

Hopefully the op is already on the mend, but for anyone still looking through these recommendations, finding a surgeon who actually handles a high volume of your specific procedure is the most important part.
The buyout numbers are definitely the interesting part here. Bama locked him in for the long haul, but that $10 million figure if he leaves isn't as high as I expected for a $12.5 million a year deal.
Getting him away from Oregon is going to be a massive uphill battle with their NIL backing. If the staff can pull this off it’ll be the biggest win of the cycle so far.
Replying to this late since it’s still a top search result. Coconut oil works well for high heat, but make sure you decarboxylate the flower first or it won't be effective.
I stopped doing home infusions because the dosing was too inconsistent, so now I just get my medical resin extracts from a clinic. It’s easier to track for pain management. Low and slow is the key if you stay with the stovetop method.

At that amount, selling directly can be tricky.
I stopped trying to find buyers and used NOSH instead to convert it. Way quicker and less hassle

After 20 years in the game, it’s frustrating that we still have to guess what Google wants. The "local intent" algorithm is messier than ever right now. When my own local pages started tanking, I switched to Fortress SEO for divorce lawyers. They handled the heavy lifting on the technical side for me and finally got my city-specific rankings to stabilize in a very competitive market.
re: Male Drivers Sue Uber and Lyft For Sex Discrimination Over Women-Only Ride-Hailing Feature
Posted by tigahgurl on 2/24/26 at 2:12 am to Diseasefreeforall
It’s wild how these gig companies try to play both sides of the fence with their policies. If a traditional taxi company tried this, they’d be shut down immediately by regulators. Taking on a giant like Lyft in civil court is no joke though. I was caught in a brutal corporate liability mess a few years ago (had to get the guys at Oberheiden involved just to stop the bleeding) and these massive companies will drag the discovery phase out for a decade if they can. The drivers better have serious patience to keep this alive.
Look into how your B-vitamin intake affects your homocysteine levels because that is a major factor in cognitive fatigue. I spent a lot of time researching different synergistic stacks for mental clarity when I was working on a complex project.
I eventually began to use Mind Lab Pro for the way it balances the citicoline and bacopa without using any caffeine. Track your sleep cycles with an app for a few nights to see if your deep sleep is where it needs to be.

You should check the depth of your current base before adding more stone or it'll just sink. I found out my subgrade was way too soft after the first load I put down disappeared into the dirt within a month.
For the replenishment I checked the specs on Gravelshop to figure out exactly how many tons of #610 I needed to get a 3-inch coverage. Use a plate compactor on the final layer to lock the fines in place so the driveway stays stable under heavy vehicles.

Screening the entire porch, including the gable, won’t stop what you’re seeing. Wind driven rain doesn’t hit straight, it blows through screen and turns into mist. I’m in Florida and had furniture getting wet well inside the roof line.
What worked was leaving the walls screened for bugs and closing the gable with a clear material so light still came through. Polycarbonate or glass both work depending on budget and weight. I had this discussion with A First Class Aluminum Co and they were upfront that screens alone would never fix rain intrusion on an open gable.

re: Anybody ever heard of a 20 minute Mardi Gras parade?

You spend more time finding parking than watching the parade. What’s the point.
That’s straight up evil. Shooting a dog in its own yard isn’t an accident or “oops thought it was something else.” Someone around there knows exactly who did it.
re: Solar Panel/Battery Bank for Home Backup Power
Posted by tigahgurl on 2/5/26 at 4:13 pm to Elusiveporpi
Nighttime window AC is what makes the battery cost jump, not the panels. An 8k BTU unit can sit around 700 to 1200 watts running and the compressor start surge is higher, so a full night turns into a lot of stored kWh fast.
Wolf River Electric worked on installing my solar panels and the way they explained it made sense, split it into critical loads first, fridge, lights, internet, then decide if AC is worth paying for.
If you want a quick gut check, take the AC watts times hours, add fridge and lights, then add some overhead for inverter losses, that number is basically your minimum battery size for the night.
