    Charities that pick up furniture to donate?

    If you go to the city's website, the part about the pick up of old appliances, they give you the name of a charitable organization that does that.

    Where do you find things like cultural events and theater, music, museum exhibits in BA?

    alternativateatral.com.ar is good for theater and music. Ticketek has a lot of the bigger names in music, and even some theater. Put "cartelera cine" in Google for movies, even though a couple of theaters are not on there, Cine Cosmos and Cine Arte Cacodelphia. Complejo Teatral has great movie...

    Boise, Idaho anyone?

    I've loved every minute of this thread. It's made me think about where I might want to live in the event I ever move back to the States, and it's given me some good ideas. Don't get too snug.

    Boise, Idaho anyone?

    I'm not sure why you and a few others think communication in cases like these should be via direct message only. That deprives the rest of us of information. Sure there are times when people give uniformed, baseless opinions, talking about things they have no real knowledge of, or will correct...

    Protest Against Milei’s Move to Scrap Film Institute, INCAA

    And white we're talking about secondary effects, maybe it wouldn't be so bad if second or third rate writers and film directors were told their mediocre projects weren't going to be funded by the govt. They might actually go out and find a means of living that would actually provide them with...

    Protest Against Milei’s Move to Scrap Film Institute, INCAA

    It's funny that you mention the Palacio de Aguas Corrientes because that is my favorite building in all of CABA, and I'm so glad that I get to see it and so much other beautiful architecture in BA on a regular basis, but I feel that, just like with the Arts, seeing those beautiful buildings is a...

    Protest Against Milei’s Move to Scrap Film Institute, INCAA

    I should have explained better my position. I am not saying that all Inacc funding should be stopped, nor all funding for the arts in general. If a govt has the funds to support all those things, why not, but that is not the case with the current govt. No hay plata, and I will add that the poor...

    Restaurants in Palermo

    I think lots of places would be more than that, especially if you're having any sort of alcohol, even in Newark, NJ.

    Protest Against Milei’s Move to Scrap Film Institute, INCAA

    From what I've read, INCAA is overstaffed and produces less films than other similar govt funded dept or organization in other countries. Again, more govt inefficiency that has come to so characterize Argentina. I can't comment on the secondary sort of economic effects that the film industry...

    25$ seems pretty cheap for a brunch in the US.

    Country Wide Strike..?

    Where I am in Moreno right now, a number of the type of businesses you mention, did not open. You might not want to generalize, unless you are sure.

    Best award program to find flights to the US?

    I used to think Delta's Skymiles program was really good (I got tickets to Argentina many times with only minimum amount of miles), but since the end of the pandemic, I haven't seen an award ticket that's not double the minimum.

    They're behind a lot of what gives in Venezuela.

    What do pedestrian crossings mean in CABA?

    I was waiting for you to say you're wrong, that doesn't happen in Argentina or it's never happened to me, or for you to take about your superior experience. You never disappoint.

    What do pedestrian crossings mean in CABA?

    I don't think all cars have to wait until every pedestrian has crossed before they can turn because it would create gridlock as you mention, but there are too times when many drivers don't give priority to the pedestrian when they should.

    What do pedestrian crossings mean in CABA?

    There's a big, marked pedestrian crosswalk near our apt. I remember commenting to an Argentine woman standing beside me basically wtf, these cars have to stop but they don't. They don't even think about it. She said to me something like, don't create a problem. The other day I was crossing the...

    Milei's Omnibus Law

    And let's not forget about all the money that he gave away. Yet how did he cover that, with more printing of pesos. Of course that causes inflation on down the road.
