Nice job. The line work is good and angles are consistent.

It’s too exhausting to even think about explaining how fucked up this whole response is

Just Google rinks in your area and look at their public skating schedule. There's a ton of ice rinks and basically all of them have public skating time.

Cha-cha-cha

I had Samsung mini splits installed in December, because of the $10,000. rebate. The cost to use them will be zeroed out by the 33 solar panels on the roof.

When building a new building, make it work for solar panels. The mini splits then become the obvious choice.

That's what they get for voting Democrat for the last 30 years.

Dude like idek this shit is crazy. I just wanted a capybara to come to mental health now I’m public enemy number 1

Well done! Love the foliage colors.

Housing is spicy

On cypress st.?

Gosh, this is beautiful!

The only place I can think of is Brookline Village around Linden Street. Is that anywhere close?

Train from Logan has just many switched - Blue to State, Orange to North Station, Commuter rail to Lawrence (Larry-town)

Not sure if you're close to boxborough, but nashoba rink has daily times.

That’s when I swoop in.

Meanwhile we are telling families to live 2 hours out of the city they work in if they want to be able to afford kids on a 200k salary. Why is it unreasonable for her to commute to her support community, or build a new one elsewhere for that matter? She’s had her whole life to make decisions to set herself up for a decent retirement but now we’re all supposed to subsidize her having no savings while not being able to provide good education to inner city kids at the beginning of their lives?

There’s a rink in Kendall Square.

Who did you use to install your heat pump? I'm in Westford and have an ancient gas furnace/forced hot air, plus two small heat pumps serving two rooms without furnace ducting.

I like the two mini-splits, have had them for 7-8 years and there have maybe been handful of days where those rooms were uncomfortably cold because the heat pumps couldn't extract heat from below 0 outside air.

The rebates/tax incentives for whole house heat pumps are looking pretty attractive, especially since we don't have central air now.

Homeowners looking at you outside like wtf, they’re back again

Not if no one can afford watermelons and so they just rot in the stands. These luxury units get built in droves, go for insane rates, and sit empty while people who could afford a cheaper unit are out on the street because there's not enough affordable supply.

An air conditioner is a heat pump that's set up to only move heat from inside to out. A heat pump is set up to push heat in either way so in the winter you can have it push heat into the house. There is a bunch of physics behind it that you can read into.

They get really good efficiency rating because they are just moving energy around by explioting how gases evaporate and condense instead of just converting energy into heat. cold weather does reduce efficiency though.

Housing is housing and every extra unit is good. We don’t tell watermelon farmers they aren’t allowed to grow watermelons just because there’s a shortage of affordable wheat somewhere.

Agreed. Mitsubishi is the heat pump company for winter weather states like ours.

In RI, we can choose our electricity provider. I selected one that’s 100% renewables. The entire state is targeting 2035 for 100% renewable electricity. I’d be shocked if Mass wasn’t going in a similar direction.
