  • Yes! I see owners all the time asking “what’s the cheapest x” or saying “im going to source that myself” only to complain during/after installation that something doesn’t look good.

    The price difference between a $3,000 and a $10,000 set of cabinets is negligible when wrapped into a 30 year mortgage, but consider just how important they are visually and how often you’ll be using them (every day)


  • I see this a lot and take some issue with it the wording of it. I think a lot of people say this thinkkng of something like Ryobi or Harbor Freight as the “cheap” guys, when in reality the price scaling of tools puts those makes pretty squarely in the mid to high-end bracket.

    In reality, there are some cheap tools that are downright unsafe for use that some people might see after reading that comment and decide to get.

    ETA: If it’s sharp, spins, or runs on electricity, get it from a physical store or highly reputable online vendor and make sure it has a warranty










  • I think most people are wising up to the fact that there were really concurrent pandemics.

    The first pandemic was the 2019 SARS-CoV-2 (Coronavirus) outbreak. The existence of which was self-evident, measurable, and unavoidable (up to a point).

    The second pandemic was the mass looting of public/private resources that corporations used the cover of the first pandemic to excuse themselves for. This pandemic was allowed to happen by ineffective (at best) or colluding (at worst (see: USA, Trump admin.)) governments around the world.

    Most people see these are one event when in reality they were two. It’s also in the perpetrators of the second pandemic’s best interest to keep people believing that they were the same event.
