You can’t live in society without posing a risk to others. We all spread germs and bacteria which cause illness, and in some cases, death. Data has shown being both masked and vaccinated doesn’t stop transmission either, let alone some HEPA filters within a massive gym. Lock yourself away and never interact with humans again if you’re that concerned.
OP knows the only true answer is to workout at home, within the context that their partner has a health issue. We can’t all wear hazmat suits forever to keep the frailest members of society perfectly preserved.
So no, actually, it’s not exactly a reasonable request, because the answer is self-evident. If you’re afraid of the world, workout at home. Unfortunately life isn’t fair.

They’re great. Spinach bourek and mushroom and brie croissant are our go-to foods there (and kiddo loves the grilled cheese). Dying to try that baklava cheesecake they keep posting on IG

Damn that’s a shame anyone who gets up at 6am deserves a squat rack!
Yea on the weekends it’s pretty packed from 10-1pm later in the afternoon though is quiet if you can make it then.

Reply to Property Taxes ~ Quick (dumb?) Question: if purchasing a condo for $600k with an assessed to value of $500k do the property taxes automatically adjust to the latest sale price of $600k? TIA by MarieSkiis
No, that's called a "spot reassessment", and not done here. But don't make the mistake of pre-reval purchasers of undertaxed Downtown properties and think that it's etched in stone. By the current ratio of sales to assessments we're already due for another reval, and your property would be reassessed base on sales comps.

Dream Vista on York is great for this. Ample space in the back, and a nice outdoor porch for nicer days. WiFi of course and they encourage you to stay.

People at Heights Fitness are fucking disgusting. Yes. And even if they didn't, there's no harm in wearing one. I also find it very helpful for my allergies.

People at Base are pretty good about wiping down their equipment.
Again, just curious. Did your doctor advise you to continue to wear your mask?

No but if you're unaware of the property tax increases JC is facing you should do some research and budget for taxes to increase $100-$200/month in the next few years.

Thanks for your reply. I try to workout before work. The whole of this week, I reached at 6 AM and all the squat racks were taken. Today, a weekend when it was snowing, I went at 10 AM, and the place was jam-packed.

I think it's a perfectly reasonable comparison, but happy to be convinced otherwise if you think there's an important distinction here. (I'm politely overlooking your unfounded accusation that I'm arguing in bad faith.)
To repeat, I think this thread is filled with hypocrites who believe that a "sovereign citizen" violating vehicle and traffic laws is worthy of condemnation because they've been told to think of of those people as right-wing and contemptible, but the (more common) case of an illegal immigrant violating vehicle and traffic laws is exempt from condemnation because illegal immigration isn't supposed to be criticized.

Thank you. Though it’s not helping that my current property has been reassessed multiple times during the decade that I’ve live in it.

You know that the only reasonable answer is to work out at home if this is truly a risk. Truly astounding responses here.
