For large loop needles?

Here’s the real sauce: Hold the thread still and bring the needle to it. Most people who struggle are trying to poke the thread through the needle.

Forgot all that! Had though Harding was the one who knee-capped her, and it wasn’t even the knee.

Ha! We’re smarter than those idiot conservatives who believe anything they see online!"

F12 people, F12.

Scots sounds like:

"Nae king! Nae quin! Nae laird! Nae master! We willna’ be fooled again!”

This is how my tech interview went this week. For every question the panel had I returned a battle story. They were laughing and serious at the same time. Bagged it!

But… HR stuck their nose in and wants their guy interviewed. So now I have to wait a week for them to (hopefully) say, “Thanks but we’re going with Shalafi71.”

You have the correct term, but that’s not exactly how it works. At my last job the CEO told the board that he intended to lose money building our staff, skills and core software products. They applauded him. (Oops, we made a profit on those years anyway, but the point stands.)

Fiduciary responsibility mainly means they have to make a good faith effort to protect and grow company finances. They have no obligation to drive the line up quarterly.

I’m one! Honestly don’t get the hate. There was a comment the other day that made me think the haters are phone users. Shorts work fine on a 47" TV, for me. Hate that you can’t turn the giant captions off on many videos, but the people I follow usually don’t do that.

For me, shorts are a thing I can scroll past once and be done. Is it painful on a phone for some reason?

Ah! Old temporally vs. old culturally. Thoughtful take!

Let me add 12 Angry Men to that list.

Had no desire to watch it, but people on reddit were flipping over it. Put it on late, figured I’d get to bed for work the next day. Nope. Glued to the screen for every second of it. You can feel the heat and physical closeness of the single room it takes place in.

Didn’t think my Filipino wife would like it, maybe wouldn’t get the English. Nope. She was perfectly still absorbing it all.

Only thing that feels out of place is the old-timey, fast-talking 50s feel from some characters. OTOH, you could re-shoot the whole thing, almost word for word, and it would still be a masterpiece. LOL, and make an excuse for a borked AC unit.

It’s always the lingering part. What was that one that fucked Houston not long ago? Sat on top of them forever. Hurricane Ivan was like that down here. Only a CAT-3 at landfall, but I listened to that freight train sound for over 10 fucking hours.

Installed one for my wife when she moved it, never used it. At this point I’ve forgotten it’s even there. Talk about old habits dying hard.

My wife blots with a bit of TP and tosses it in the trash can. Guessing plumbing is more sensitive where she’s from.

Hit F12 and rewrite the text. Much of the bullshit memes we see are done like that.

Well, one would expect mountainous areas to flood because elevation focuses water flow. I’m in Florida, flattest state in the union. We never flood except in hurricanes, and those floods don’t last like they do in other places, in and out.

Making bee hotels for solitary bees is child’s play. Take a chunk of wood, drill holes, hang in a tree.

Technical aspects:

• Don’t use pressure treated lumber, anything else is fine.
• Look up “solitary bee hotel” for your area to see what size holes to make for the locals. In any case, it’s going to be a variety of different sizes to cover all your bases. Doesn’t have to bee (heh) perfect.
• Make the holes, especially the edges, nice and smooth. They’re not dumb enough to nest their if the hole is raggedy and might jack up their wings.

That’s mostly it. You can research easily enough in an hour or less There’s a woman on YouTube that sells bee hotels and has solid advice for making your own. Wish I remembered her name. Anyone?

Damned satisfying when you find the holes plugged with wax! You have new tenants! Stupid easy and basically free.

CAVEAT: These things are single use. Chunk 'em out every season, or better, burn them. Keeps the mites out. Make another for free.

And what kinda shithole is this? We’re redneck as fuck, and on the bleeding edge of town. I hear nothing but the occasional gun pop from the woods, and you can barely hear that if you’re outside and paying attention.

So wish I still had my VIC-20 and 64.

I counted my parents collection. Uh, am I cheating?

Now this is a unique post! Can’t imagine any 20-somethings scoring zero. Go go retro bro!

The fire rises brother! (OK, not an appropriate quote, just wanted to say it.)
