I need some help...I'm spending a small fortune and more time than I'd like, manually spraying/picking crabgrass outta my lawn. It's a pain in the ass tbh. I put in all fresh sod last yr, and it looks fantastic- i wanna keep it that way. I should put down something in the spring I assume to prevent it from sprouting. If so- I then seed in the fall per usual and skip the spring seeding since it'd get killed by the crabgrass control? anyone have any experience?

Shout-out to @Typhoon Tip. My router & modem are installed and the difference is hugggeee. I can be a bit of a d*ck on here at times- but your help was/is appreciated.

I use a program called 'snag it' for all of those type of things. highly recommend.

Yes it is the one "woman", and her 2 liberal friends who come in here, make all of 10 posts that cause all the issues and get things shut down. Your eyes are lying to you.

We agree to disagree- I’m renewing right now, hasn’t been brought up at all by my broker who is literally the biggest in the world. Prices are up but in my view it’s consolidation driving that - I dunno man. I’m was trying to agree with you- not get into a pissing contest but here we are.

So I’ve disagreed with you on the insurance thing for awhile. I run our Corp insurance program on the side— zero Covid claims in CAD, US, MX (5k employees) since this started including manufacturing lines, which we never paused unless there was an active outbreak ongoing, literally never lost a minute of sleep over that side of the business re: Covid. But I 100% agree things get sticky when it comes to proving vaccine status. And ultimately that’s why I think this will end up being mandated by the states, but you are correct ( for once, lol) I think this becomes an issue for pvt sector co’s.

Nope never heard of it. Separate but equal, brown v board of Ed…try patronizing someone else. Legal precedent can be overturned yes, is it likely to be overturned…almost certainly not. But maybe you’re right, conservative lawyers have always had a problem with states rights— right?

That’s fine that you don’t think so and maybe you’ll be right. But it is very clear cut from a legal perspective. It doesn’t get anymore clear cut tbh. People can and will appeal to the SC but I don’t even know that they would take the case given that the legal precedent has been set…since 1905.

I think we both know that will immediately follow the full authorization in a couple of weeks. The Indiana S.C. ruled against students saying vaccine requirements were unconstitutional to attend college for context. I really don’t care either way- just saying the constitution is not on the side of the unvaccinated. America was never free (gasp).

I almost didn’t take the bait but couldn’t resist. What USA do you speak of- it’s certainly not the country in which you currently live. Maybe brush up on a few things other than conspiracy theories, like Massachusetts case law for instance— via the Indiana Court of Appeals:

So went with the Linksys AX3200 and then said f-it and got the Motorola MB8611 modem to go with it...goodbye Comcast hardware. Finally. Arrives Saturday- can't wait.

Thanks- will do this immediately...running a lot of data being at home and it's showing.

I moved to YouTubeTV which was great then the price went up and they lost NESN... so not as good of a deal. But even cutting the cord- I still pay ComCast for their internet and their router- which I need to just buy one- any one got any good recommendations? I digress... a TV streaming option is cheaper by far with the same features. I would recommend it.

Just getting caught up and man that CDC internal memo is a tough read. I thought we’d have bought some time before a variant has breakthrough capabilities but Delta seems very close and we’re letting it bounce around a partially vaccinated population. (for various reasons) More convinced than ever we end up back at square one sooner rather than later.

I know it’s only Covid here but — that tornado warned cell within that derecho in Wisconsin is moving right towards Oshkosh- where there’s like 25k people sleeping in trailers and their planes for the air show. So big yikes there.

Lol...I'm just saying, I assume some people will go bananas over this. But ya- I would think it'll be vague and toothless.

We should prob fight a civil war over masks: states rights etc. let's do it.

Rumor on my street: Fauci/ CDC mask mandate at 3pm...rumor of a rumor. but mayyybbeee?

She gone boys, this is what transitory looks like:

I’d put it in right on top of that little lip, then close the window and cut a piece of wood to put between the top of the now half open window and the top of the interior window casing, so you can’t move the window up or down. It sits funny (downward slope) but it won’t go anywhere. I had a similar issue.

For those asking…Yes, a local official in Jackson, Mississippi misstating numbers, and then correcting the record 8 hours later is evidence of a vast conspiracy propagated by the highest authorities within the U.S. government.

I have an in-ground, and admittedly know nothing about them. do I need to pump it out if it is above the filter? i mean it is high but never really cared...or thought about it before

I'm not saying anything about who is or isn't vaccinated. It's just mind blowing to me that it falls along party affiliations- just an observation. I don't wish anyone to get sick and die. Again just commenting on how deeply held those beliefs seem to be- that they won't change unless they become personally impacted. Like everything else these days it's all very tribal. It's just interesting- that is all.

The ideological lines seem to have already been drawn. The below chart always blows my mind, and I've seen it even more granular on a county and congressional district level. The story doesn't change. Chickens will come home to roost. I'm not sure the unvaxxed will rethink it until they actually get sick.

Strong agree- the government just issued a statement which basically read: not so fast you greasy scumbags. Either way, crap like this doesn’t do much to inspire the vaccine hesitant. Damage= done.
