Krissy and I have decided that if we end up staying in our house past a certain age, we're going to install an elevator. We would still have to contend with other aspects, though. The property is generally not conducive to mobility issues. Quoting @fred-decker.bsky.social Yeah. Fiancee and I are beginning to plan our "age in place" home... she can't conceive of a home without a basement, and I'm equally adamant about eliminating stairs. So that's gonna be a point of contention for a while. Related

Nothing matches. Show everything
A korrent is a belief a person has stated in their own words: one
sentence stating the claim, backed by a quote and a source, kept at
korrents.com .
Under a name here, the quoted block is what they actually said.
The korrent beneath it is the claim those words support, in
korrents' wording — tap it to see the record, its source, and who
else holds it.
Nobody here wrote their own korrents. They are compiled from public
statements, and a person can change their mind, which is recorded too.

About the English under a post
Some people here publish in a language other than English. Where they
do, this site shows a machine translation beneath the post, in
this typeface — the site's own, not theirs.
The post itself is never changed, moved or hidden: what is set in the
serif above is exactly what the person published, and it is what to
quote them on. A translation can be wrong in ways that matter,
especially about tone.
Only the post's own words are translated. A quoted post, a linked
article and a belief on korrents.com
are left in their original language.
