#Safety Concerns

[awkwardbros]

Nuff said my friend. Ok. Just give me a minute to sort this wild message out.

Ok… it could be more than that. This runs all over the board which could be exactly the point or super ironic given the tattoo. How much weight do we give intention here? Can someone with a paid subscription to a visual AI service run this through? It you can afford the subscription, you have the time. Just sayin.

…You know, I’m betting either myself or a fireman might be coming for this guy and not for any reason anyone is thinking right now.

Elon Musk's Tesla is recalling 46,096 of its Cybertruck vehicles over a safety issue relating to a cosmetic panel that could fall off.

About 1 percent of vehicles being recalled are affected by the defect, according to a notice issued Tuesday by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.

The recall includes all 2024 and 2025 Cybertruck vehicles manufactured from November 13, 2023, to February 27, 2025.

The part issue is another blow for Tesla. The electric carmaker's stock value has dropped significantly in recent weeks, while its vehicles have often been targets for vandalism—seemingly in response to Musk, the company's CEO, taking a prominent role in President Donald Trump's administration.

Last week there was no agility class because they were redoing the surface. We've gone back to dirt, which isn't my favorite but it's a hell of a lot better than the sand they'd switched too.

Forte sniffed the dirt a little and then decided it was boring. Way better than the sand that I had a harder time getting him to ignore.

Tonight's course included a tight section that took some trial and error to get successfully. Particularly going from the dog walk (9) to the bar jump (10). Crudely drawn picture included. Arrow shows where we were coming from.

Ultimately I used Forte's solid contacts to send him over the dog walk as I pulled away while he was at the half way point. This let me get cut through the jumps to direct him from the same side we approached the bar jump (8) initially.

His speed was a challenge on this course because I simply could not get to where everyone else was doing their crosses in time.

As far as safety in class, I decided to crate Forte during the transitions. Meaning I came in five minutes early and immediately crated him. And when there was about 10 minutes left I popped him back in the crate. Five minutes before the class ended the aggressive dog from last time came in.

Because Forte was safe and I was expecting it, I paid a lot of attention to the dog and handler. Dog came in way ahead of the handler with a low/forward body, whale eyes while scanning the room and then hard staring at the dog it ended up going after.

Fortunately (?) the dog it targeted is reactive so when it lunged forward the other dog got loud. This caused both handlers to yank their dogs back just in time to prevent contact. My instructor did turn around at the noise but the aggressive dog's handler had moved away pretty quickly and the other handler had their dog under control again.

That tells me the aggressive behavior isn't a fluke and it isn't being addressed. I'm really glad I already had Forte safely crated. That didn't stop me from doing to stand in front of his crate when the aggressive dog was passing by. The handler frowned at me but had no choice but to give Forte's crate more space.

I'm trying not to pass judgement because it may be that this handler doesn't understand that their dog poses a serious risk to others.

I also harbored some fears around Forte being uncomfortable in class. But while it was just our class I had him with me between runs. He was interested when one person used a squeaky toy in the ring but didn't get up from his voluntary down. He also did not care about our classmate's very excited dog throwing herself around on leash less than two feet from him. That dog is social with both dogs and people, just allowed to be wild and amped for agility class.

So overall it was good information for me. Not sure where I stand on potentially trialing. I would crate Forte out of my car for it. But seeing someone so unresponsive to their dogs' aggression is concerning.

Concern Regarding Recent Lighting Changes at Eastwick 1

The residents want express their concern regarding the recent change in lighting in the laundry area aisles. On may 6, 2025, some residents from Inglis Garden E1 observed that the large, bright lights were replaced with smaller lights that provide significantly less illumination. It is unclear who authorized this change, but the new lights do not adequately light the area, resulting in noticeably darker conditions at night.

While we understand and appreciate that Inglis House Corporation may be working toward upgrading to more modern lighting systems, any changes made should improve conditions rather than diminish them. Proper lighting is essential, particularly for residents with limited visibility, and dimly lit areas increase the risk of trips or accidents.

Additionally, as Inglis House Corporation is aware, safety is a major concern for many residents of our community. Ensuring well-lit pathways and communal spaces is a key part of maintaining a secure and welcoming environment.

One of the residents took photos to document the lighting conditions and illustrate how insufficient the new lights are.

9) Young children!!! Some of us are parents with kids who are just starting to walk and play. Being at an outdoor park is supposed to be a safe environment for tiny humans!!(Especially post covid due to the space) I don't care if your dog likes kids, if your huge 50 lb dog bowls over my 1 year old and injuries the kid then you're responsible. Especially if there's a possibility that they could bite! As a disabled parent it's my worst fear to have to try to protect my kid from an animal especially in an environment designed to be safe for kids and families! Leash your dogs!!

Everyone else talked about outdoor cats, it's time for me to talk about offleash dogs

Is it safe to use a menstrual cup along with a copper T or IUD?

Yes, you can use a menstrual cup with a Copper T (IUD), but you need to take certain precautions to avoid displacing the IUD.

Things to Consider:

✔ Check the IUD Strings: Ensure the strings are not too short or too long, as shorter strings might retract into the cervix, and longer ones could get caught in the cup. ✔ Break the Suction Before Removal: Always pinch the cup’s base gently to release suction before pulling it out. Strong suction might tug on the IUD. ✔ Position the Cup Low: Insert the cup lower in the vaginal canal so it does not touch the cervix or interfere with the IUD. ✔ Wait After IUD Insertion: If you recently got an IUD, wait at least 6-8 weeks before using a menstrual cup to allow the IUD to settle.

Possible Risks:

⚠ IUD Displacement or Expulsion: Rarely, the suction from a menstrual cup could shift or dislodge the IUD. ⚠ Increased Awareness: If you experience unusual cramps, spotting, or feel the IUD has moved, consult your gynecologist.

Many people safely use both without issues. If you're unsure, check with your doctor and consider using a softer menstrual cup with a lower capacity to reduce suction risk.

Key Factors to Consider Before Scheduling Window Cleaning Services

Introduction:

Maintaining clean windows is essential for both aesthetic appeal and functionality, whether for a home or a commercial building. Sparkling windows allow natural light to flood the interior, enhancing the atmosphere and making spaces feel more inviting. Scheduling window cleaning services, however, requires careful planning to ensure that the results are both timely and efficient. In this guide, we will explore the key considerations when booking window cleaning services to achieve the best outcome for your property.

1. Determine the Scope of the Job The first step before scheduling window cleaning services is to assess the scope of the job. Are you seeking services for your home, office, or an industrial property? Different properties come with varying challenges, such as the number of windows, their size, height, and accessibility. Some windows may require special tools or techniques for proper cleaning. For example, high-rise windows often demand advanced equipment and expertise, making it crucial to hire professionals with the right skills and tools.

2. Frequency of Cleaning The frequency of window cleaning will vary depending on several factors, including the location and environmental conditions of your property. If your home or office is near a busy street, industrial area, or trees, it may require more frequent cleanings due to dirt, pollen, and debris. On the other hand, properties located in more rural areas might not need cleaning as often. Discussing the recommended cleaning schedule with your service provider is essential to maintain the cleanliness of your windows without overpaying.

3. Time of Year The timing of your window cleaning appointment is important to consider. Certain seasons are better suited for window cleaning based on climate conditions. For example, spring and fall are generally ideal for window cleaning, as these seasons tend to have more moderate weather conditions. Avoid scheduling cleanings during rainy or snowy periods when the benefits of the service may be short-lived due to weather-related dirt accumulation.

4. Experience and Reputation of the Service Provider The expertise and reputation of the window cleaning service you hire play a pivotal role in achieving quality results. It’s essential to conduct some research into potential providers by reading reviews, checking their credentials, and confirming that they are licensed and insured. A reputable company will have positive customer feedback and demonstrate a commitment to safety and high-quality service. Don’t hesitate to ask for references or inquire about the training and experience of their technicians.

5. Safety Concerns Window cleaning, especially for multi-story properties, involves inherent risks. Ensuring that the cleaning crew follows strict safety guidelines is paramount. When selecting a service provider, confirm that their workers are trained in the proper use of safety equipment such as harnesses, ladders, and scaffolding. The company should have liability insurance in case of accidents, offering you peace of mind that both your property and the workers are protected.

6. Use of Eco-Friendly Products For environmentally conscious property owners, it’s important to consider the types of products used in window cleaning. Many companies now offer eco-friendly cleaning solutions that are effective without harming the environment or releasing harmful chemicals into the air. Ask your service provider if they use green cleaning products, especially if you have pets, children, or allergies in your household.

7. Pricing and Transparency Understanding the cost structure of the window cleaning service is another important factor. Ask for an itemized estimate upfront that includes labor, materials, and any additional fees for equipment or travel. Transparent pricing ensures there are no hidden fees or surprise charges once the job is completed. Some companies may offer discounts for repeat customers or package deals for regular cleaning, so inquire about any potential savings.

8. Special Requirements If your property has unique window types, such as stained glass, tinted windows, or windows with delicate frames, make sure the cleaning service is experienced in handling these variations. Specialized windows often require different cleaning techniques to prevent damage, so ensure that your service provider is well-versed in handling such tasks.

Conclusion:

Scheduling window cleaning services involves more than simply booking an appointment. By considering factors like the scope of the job, timing, provider reputation, and safety measures, you can ensure your windows remain spotless and your investment is worthwhile. Taking the time to research and communicate with your chosen service provider will ultimately result in a smoother experience and gleaming windows that enhance your property's appearance.

This is a complicated question to answer, actually, and depends on your circumstances!

In my opinion, dirty dishes should only be put in the sink if they need pre-soaking. I add shredded cheese on top of lots of dishes, and that stuff is hard to get off once it dries.

It's very difficult to run water into tall objects (kettle, pot for pasta, water jug) if the sink is full of dirty dishes.

I find it's dangerous to leave sharps like knives in the sink where they can be buried and hidden, and dangerous to leave potential sharps like water glasses in the sink where they can be broken by dropping something.

Also, I feel like it's more likely that your dishes will get moldy if you habitually leave them in the sink and then don't wash them reguarly (executive dysfunction I'm glaring at you) (dishes can still get moldy on the counter, don't get me wrong, there's just more water in the sink).

If you have a dishwashing machine, they should of course be put in directly if it doesn't contain clean dishes. If you wash by hand, I feel you should designate a segment of the counter only for dirty dishes and pile them there, with stability and safety in mind. Having dirty dishes sitting beyond the designated area because I can't safely stack them further where they are supposed to go has, sometimes, helped me conquer my executive dysfunction and wash the dishes.

Just my handful of thoughts!
