100% agree and it cleans up easier than regular syrupy soda.

What a wonderful read.

I’ve had similar thoughts. Maybe not a rotation, but a compulsory period of service following high school that where people can select from a variety of public service assignments.

Beee kaaay have it your way.

If you see my kayak and fishing poles tell them I miss them and I hope I get to spend more time with them when my son is a few years older.

Interested people are interesting.

I don’t run in gloves often because I’m so much warmer when I’m running than I am when I’m walking or standing outside. I generally dress as if it were 20 degrees warmer than it is, but it can be problematic for the first bit of a run. What I’ve found works best for me is running a short loop that comes back to my house in an easy to remove jacket, hat, and gloves that I can drop off at the door on my way past then continuing with the bulk of my run. In these cases any old gloves will do. When I do wear gloves for the full run, I wear a pair of thin, but insulated gloves from Heat that I got at Costco. They have silver in the fingers, so I can use my phone. It’s more difficult than without the gloves, but it’s not like I’m using my phone much mid run anyway.

We are all mammal people on this blessed day.

I thought the god chose the person who had suffered more of the gods torture.

Speaking of ships, Penelope could launch a thousand.

I just started getting into Enshrouded. It seems fun so far, but I haven’t gotten very far yet. I’m playing with a group of friends and it seems a little harder to juggle solo vs group play in Enshrouded than it was in Valheim since it’s more quest/exploration based for experience.

What harm ever came from reading a book?

I appreciate that the junction box is labeled. There’s a switch in my hallway that does nothing and has baffled me for years until I fixed an exhaust fan in the attic and found “hall switch” scrawled in Sharpie on a random junction box cover.

Is Nebula good? Every time I watch Practical Engineering, I’m tempted to get it.

I do enjoy Cody’s Lab from time to time. I’ll have to check out This old Tony.

Stuff Made Here - blows my mind with each new video. I can’t even imagine being able to dream up his creations let alone design and create them.

Technology Connections - you didn’t know you were going to love learning about dishwashers and other appliances, but you are.

Foureyes Furniture - interesting custom furniture design and build sequences with very good editing and voiceover.

Marling Baits - Custom fishing lures that vary from lifelike (using real fish skin) to absurd (a lightsaber) to ultra absurd (a block of wood).

Project Farm - head to head comparisons of common tools or other household projects. Very no nonsense and a ton of information packed in quick.

Inheritance Machining - a man documenting rediscovering his passion for machining after inheriting his grandfather’s machine shop. Excellent narrative scriptwriting, recurring video elements, buttery smooth voiceover, and oddly satisfying machining footage.

I couldn’t think of a specific song on that album, so I put it on for a listen. I wasn’t familiar with the hardcore/punk style on War and Keys to the Kingdom. Funny enough, I had tickets to see them on this tour because Rise Against was their supporting act, but the tour got cancelled because Chester got sick. The pairing didn’t make too much sense to me at the time, but now it makes more sense, even if it was at a time that Rise Against was losing a lot of their melodic hardcore background with Appeal to Reason. Collapse (Post-Amerika) still hit though.

I was just hitting middle school when Hybrid Theory came out. My mom wouldn’t let me buy it because of the repeated Shut Up lyrics in One Step Closer, but I loved the album and listened to it with my friends all the time. I didn’t feel like Meteora hit as hard, and I really lost interest after Minutes to Midnight. Listening to them now, I still don’t like much after the first few albums, but I’ve come around a bit to Meteora and honestly, Reanimation might be my favorite of the first three albums.

I want to be a digital organizer, but I’m also a folder nesting whore and things get out of sight out of mind to easily. I find my daily tasks and todos are much more effective if I write them down in a small notebook that I always keep in my bag.

If he can play a stapler, he can be a pregnant Asian woman too!
