Ronald McDonald House will only take new toys. Their clientele often have children with medical issues so used toys bring exposure/germ risks.

Cellar + Plate is by Kingdom Coffee and has a good wine selection and a small beer selection, I don’t think they would mind if someone had a laptop out to finish up some work

MudLounge downtown is a good spot. Limited menu, but Kingdom Coffee on Lone Pine has a few drinks they serve though I've never ordered. If you like beer I highly recommend 4by4; dollar off Fridays if you bring your laptop.

"To me that isn't sexual orientation..."
To be fair, she just admitted that she has no idea what that word means. She just thought that it referred to non-straight, non-cis orientations. So she literally doesn't understand why my guy is bringing up Martha Washington.
That's why when he asks if they could theoretically talk about Martha Washington, she says "I don't know." She is STUMPED as to what Martha Washington has to do with this
Her bill is POSITIVELY nonsensical but most of this conversation is too. Just explain to her what it word means, lol

Same- the only reason I know a little bit is because my girlfriend is not a nerd.

If there is nightlife I am too nerdy to know about it.

Is this an actual answer? Or sarcastic? Cus it reminds me vividly of when I moved here last year to escape an even smaller and more rural town to come here. And one of the first people I met said “Oh? I’m trying to escape for the same reasons.” and I broke a little inside lmao

Burrell! They have residential facilities for kids and they often get overlooked in calls for donations

The question has been answered. They don’t have a job.

Clown? That's accurate. I was thinking of another word that begins with that letter, but maybe that's just me.

Ditto.
I preordered my service, so it won't be installed until early April, but I'm locked in at the better price.

Its a low key jab at my wife and myself living here thinking damn they sound like us where the divide in opinions vary so greatly. Just like in here where different tones of humor can affect different type of people.

Speaking of do nothing, jeesh you've been defending this for hours, don't you have a job or hobbies?
If you're a underground utility worker I'd say you might have some capacity to speak with the authority you think you have. But obviously "delays" are something that troubles your rigid little perspective. If you're really this upset, stop being a coward and keyboard warrior. Go ask them what the holdup is. And point out while they are working outside you'll be behind your window playing Monday morning quarterback.

Sammy’s Window is a “thrift shop” for foster kids.
Isabel’s House might be interested, they are a crisis nursery - basically, if kids need an emergency place to stay (Mom is getting away from an abusive partner and needs a few days to secure housing, for example), they take them in and care for them until arrangements can be made.
Harmony House is a domestic violence shelter and usually women and kids arrive with not much more than the clothes on their backs - they would probably appreciate them too.

They are also the laughing stock of everyone I know. We haven't been able to use a road in 3 months. That is a daily commute road. Of course we pay attention.

417 Taphouse has decent Internet and is relatively chill till around 8 or so most days. Weekend experience may vary.
