I don't like it.

The owners of this huge 1906 former warehouse in Viroqua, WI took on a big project, but it looks so nice. It's a multi-use building, 3bds, 5ba, 2,970sqft, $995k (Zillow's est.: $997,900). Aside from being a single family residence, it also has several office suites, multi-purpose rooms, and a successful 2br vacation rental. Plus more than 1/2 of the building is undeveloped and ready for whatever.

It has a beautiful center hall entrance.

They did a very nice job on the main living space.

Nice living room area, sitting area and a separate TV area.

Plenty of room for a dining space.

And, the cute kitchen looks cafe or diner style.

Nice bath #1.

The primary suite has lots of closet space.

Plus, a walk-in closet.

And, a nice ensuite.

Cute child's room.

There's an old working freight elevator.

Very cool, roomy office space.

It even has a nice break room.

Next, there's the short term rental apt. It has a big living room.

A kitchenette.

And, a bedroom.

The bath is around the wall behind the bed.

There's another kitchen here.

It looks like this can be another apt., but it's the 2nd office suite.

Even though a large part of the building isn't finished, it's ready to be.

Another unfinished area that has a workshop.

0.54 acre lot. Look at how big it is.

Counted 6 subtle little things to trip on.

[manuciruja]

awww the like button turns into a rainbow when you press it! that's so cute...hey staff what's with all the trans women you keep nuking?

[manuciruja]

i think we should be ridiculing them more for this. you don't get to try and go all "queer website" when your staff likes to go on nuking sprees targeting the trans fem users

[smadsel]

would be remiss not to mention that the rainbow notably straight up just removed the trans flag colors from it. like they’re gone. it’s the progress flag minus the trans flag colors.

[smadsel]

that’s not the whole flag, now is it

[manuciruja]

hey staff what the fuck

[villainessbian]

hey staff don't you think you're being too on-the-nose

[ralfmaximus]

In transit engineering terms, this is called a "whoopsie".

could you imagine if it happened this pride month

[ororium-z]

Happy Pride!

[nursenotes]

1. Fist: Make a fist around the epi-pen, don’t place your thumb/fingers over either end

2. Flick the blue cap off

3. Fire. Press down into the outer thigh (the big muscle in there), hold for 10 seconds before removing (the orange cap will cover the needle). Bare skin is best but the epi-pen will go through clothing. Avoid pockets and seams. 

- Ring an ambulance even if everything seems to be fine!

[sassyjavert-deactivated20151015]

Oh my god. So as someone who has to carry an epipen EVERYWHERE I am so happy to see that there’s an info post about them. Like in the extreme case that I can’t inject myself, somebody else would have to do it, but nobody knows how to do it! Thank you, this may just save my life some day.

[dontbeanassharry-deactivated201]

Don’t be wimpy about it, either. I know friends who are like, “but idk if I could stab you with a needle!” Please stab me with the needle, don’t be hesitant about it.

In my case (I can’t speak for all allergies), an epi buys me 20 minutes of breathing to get to the hospital. It is not a magic bullet, it’s a few critical minutes to help get me where I need to go.

[theroguefeminist]

For those who don’t know, people with serious food allergies carry epinephrine which is an adrenaline shot just in case they have anaphylaxis, which is a life threatening allergic attack. This shot is life-saving and must be administered to someone who is having an anaphylactic attack as SOON AS POSSIBLE, because an extra waited minute could mean their life.

It doesn’t hurt much at all to use this needle. The first time I used mine, I didn’t even feel it. But be sure to stab it IN THE OUTER THIGH. Do not stick it anywhere else or you could seriously hurt or kill someone. Just right to the outside of the thigh and then call the ambulance - even if your friend starts doing better, they could have a biphasic reaction, meaning a reaction that comes back (or they may need a second dose, be on the look out). If your friend has an epipen, then they have an epipen trainer that doesn’t have a needle and you can try it out just to be sure you know how to use the real thing if you have to. I’d also advise holding it a few more seconds then 10, maybe go for 14 just to be sure all the medicine is administered and that you didn’t count too fast - that’s what I did.

Here’s a graphic of where to stick it:

[unillustrated-man]

THANK YOU FOR THE GRAPHIC I was about to ask because my mom carries one around and so do some of my friends and I wanted to make sure I would do it right if I ever needed to!

Learn about this or get a refresher, if you’re not already familiar.

“I don’t want to stab you” they’d be dead otherwise. Stab em.

[mysharona1987]

I know a lot of Hollywood actors like to brag about “doing their own stunts” but you wonder how smart that is. Isn’t it just better to, eh, leave it to the people with the best training?

Tom Cruise should not be hanging out of the side of an air plane at 50 years old, let’s be honest. 

It’s unfair on the stunt people in the industry too.

 I remember Harrison Ford telling Parkinson about how he loved doing all his own stunts for the first Indiana Jones movie…until his stuntman came up to him and asked him, very nicely, not to do it anymore. Because while Harrison wasn’t getting extra money for doing that stuff, the stuntman relied on this to make a living. 

Harrison was basically: “Oh, shit. Sorry.” He was embarrassed.  

Gotta stay in your own lane sometimes.

Gorgeously legged lampposts having a little sit in Upplands Väsby, Sweden

They’re so charming, what a great design!

[practicallyinnocent]

Photographer here! I saw some people in the tags expressing concern about hostile architecture. If you zoom in to the right, you can see some standard benches (and there are several more in the area). We're not free of hostile architecture in Sweden, but it's far less common than in some other countries/cities

Just out of left frame there's also a bench with another blue lamp post standing next to it, only that this post grew arms and is holding a large umbrella! It gets windy here so it's not super useful, but it's cute and probably helps a little during summer showers. I decided not to photograph it since there was a parent and child sitting there. Here's a photo from a news article:
