How deep should your island be so you can have shallow cabinets for storage in the back of the island?

Island depth is 49.5 inches. Length is 87 inches. Is 49.5 inches enough to have shallow cabinet storage in the back of the island? There is a trash can pullout in the front on one side of the island. Then there is a 30 inch sink in the middle and on the other side of the island there is a dishwasher. Appreciate any insights, thank you!

Does anyone with the wolf induction cooktop dislike having the LCD touchscreen on the bottom right corner?

While it’s great that it’s super optimized for a right handed person cooking with the largest cooking zone and the touchscreen on the right, does anyone else here feel if there is another person on the left cooking at the same time, the touchscreen being in the bottom right corner is inconvenient? Do most people just prefer the touchscreen controls to be in the bottom center for this reason? Appreciate any insights, thank you!

Anyone know where to get this pattern (white and green circles and diamonds) tile but in matte porcelain?

Floor and decor only have this in polished marble but want this in porcelain since it would be used in the shower floor, so need it to be slip resistant. I’ve tried really hard to find it but cannot. Appreciate any help, thank you!

How is this kitchen? Buying my first home.

Planning to upgrade the countertops, appliances, backsplash, cabinets, etc but how are the bones here- storage, the flow between the sink, stove, fridge, etc? Thinking of also converting the built in desk area along with the cabinets and above and below it into a pantry. We need the storage. Appreciate any thoughts, I am buying my first home. Thank you!

Is Google store the only place where you can get an air with the fog color?

Target, Amazon and Best Buy, etc seem to have all colors except the fog. Are y’all seeing the same thing? Thank you!

Taxes owed in the US when a property is sold overseas

Here is my situation- I live in the US, I am a US citizen and my dad is not and he lives overseas. He is trying to gift a property that he owns overseas to me before he sells it this year. It is my understanding that it will trigger long term capital gains tax for me in the US and it will have to be reported in my US tax return. Taxes will of course be paid in India (think it’s 14-15%) and I know we can claim foreign tax credit here in the US but my question is what’s the long term capital gains rate for me in the US. What would the taxes owed here in the US?

A CPA had mentioned to me that if my MAGI is less than $700K, then tax owed in the US will be the same as tax paid in India but I really don’t see anything online that can confirm that. Is that statement from the CPA accurate? Is there anything online that can verify that or shows the taxes owed based on MAGI? Appreciate any insights, thank you!

What is this in my urine?

I’m 33M, had blood in my urine for 5 days and then it stopped. Urine tests revealed no UTI and CT scan revealed no kidney stones, no cancer of the bladder or kidneys. Blood tests were fine. I had no pain when urinating and there was also no back or abdominal pain. Still not clear what the underlying cause of the blood in urine was. And even when there is now no longer blood in urine, there is this red string/worm like thing, the photo is very zoomed in, in realty it is tiny but what is this? Has anyone seen something like this? Appreciate any help, thank you!

What do you like or not like about this kitchen?

What would you change? Would you want more cabinetry to the right and left of the cooktop?
