  • Typical layouts have a full bathroom attached to the master bedroom, with another full bathroom elsewhere accessible through a common area, and ideally another half bathroom somewhere also accessible through a common area.

    That allows the parents to have their own shower/tub, and the children to share a bathroom with a shower/tub, and the halfbath would be kept presentable for guests to use and wash up in. But usually two full baths is enough for a family of 4-5. Four is way overkill.




  • They aren’t affordable because every contractor out there is being paid by investment firms to build glass steel and marble condos that can be rented out for $4000 a month instead of drywall, wood and laminate ones that can be rented out for $2000.

    All of the existing drywall, wood, and laminate ones built 30 years ago are falling apart and no new ones are being built

    Starter homes do not exist anymore because no one builds them. Only luxury homes for the boomers to downsize to and pocket their fortunes as they move out of the big city.








  • I had lower back pain for a while about 12 years ago when I was youngish.

    Ignored it for like a week because I thought I just slept weird.

    Then one day I asked someone to take me to the walk-in since it was getting worse.

    It was a Sunday so they were all closed, but by that time I was starting to shake. Asked to go to the ER.

    Once in the ER I’m sweating, shivering and shaking. Doctor takes one look at me and bumps me to the front of the line. Takes me in and immediately says I look like I’m going through septic shock. Puts me on IV antibiotics and morphine for the pain which was incredible at that point.

    Apparently I had a UTI which led to a bladder infection and eventually worked its way up to my kidneys and then poisoned my blood. Another week of 1hr per day IV antibiotics pumping through me and I was okay.

    If it weren’t Sunday I possibly could have died.

    So yeah, probably go see a doctor.
