Poor girl. Bless her heart.

Chump, his minions and media sycophants have destroyed so many families. It is really is grief. They’re still walking and talking but the person you knew is gone.

Badass. I’ll enjoy reading about it.

If I were younger and had more free time; it would be fun to infiltrate these groups.

Unicorn Riot, hadn’t seen it before. Looks really interesting. Other than being Left and somewhat militant, (I’m Left), do you have any criticisms?

That’s a damn good line. Totally stealing it.

How bad is this? Like WWIII bad or localized slaughter and ‘limited’ actions bad?

Alabama native. Right there with you. The people changed so much during COVID that we started making plans in 2020 to get out before the next election. We moved this summer. Life is better and I’m no where near as worried about having to shoot someone to protect myself or family.

I brought a jar of red clay dirt with me. I’ll always miss the woods and creeks I knew.

My insurance is so shitty right now I’m not paying for a sleep study. I know why I sleep shitty. It’s cause I have a big old herina that fucking hurts and kinks my body up due to compensation. Wish I could take Aleve, but it gives me heartburn for days.

Also, can’t take most long acting meds since I don’t have a colon.

Yup, but the alternative is drinking myself to death or getting hooked on fentanyl/heroin.

I try to work hard enough every day that 2-4 ibuprofen put me to sleep for 6 hours.

It is a balancing act. Uclers vs acceptable level of sleep deprivation.

Damn. It had the drowned prison ghost and the casket bobbing up while the two guys were fishing. I need to get a copy of this. Forgot all about it until just now. It was genuinely frightening in an eerie way.

I like mine jello shot style. (2-4 every night, chronic pain management and healthcare sucks in America.)

Coil was originally aluminum, so it had a higher resistance. Even with a ‘perfect’ wind, the resistance might still be low.

Scramble should be fine, it’s a DC application. So long as i get close enough: it should work.

Yup. She wants to help her people and the most effective way of doing it is by educating the kids.

Giving books to children is a super effective way to spend the money. They can educate themselves out of the hole.

It’s actually really subversive. Smart lady. She plays the game quite well. She can’t take an open liberal stance as she would be marginalized, but educating children is difficult to attack.

I have no doubt that she’s a closeted liberal in the south. It’s often how you have to be to survive.

I was a fundamentalist. (Raised in it.)

I actually read the bible and studied it. No longer a Christian.

Funny how that works.

Thompson Chain Reference KJV represent.

Hay is generally cut from fallow fields in late summer/early fall. It contains sugars in the stalks as well as the seeds/grain of whatever grasses it is cut from. It is used to feed livestock year round and is the primary feed in winter. It is often supplemented by grain or feed.

Straw is basically an industrial byproduct and is the leftover stalk from grain harvesting. Usually produced from wheat after harvest. Used as bedding.

Die Hard is the best Christmas movie. My son demands we watch it every year.

I’ve had some dark times. Especially when I lost my religion.

Existential crisis is depression’s brother. They often travel together.

Figured out that my purpose is taking care of my people.

My people are my immediate family, friends, people in our small alternative subcommunity, pets. It’s sort of like a tribe and is small enough I can wrap my head around it instead of the world and society at large. It appeals to the pagan inside my inner atheist.

Find someone or something external to yourself to care about that you can meaningfully help and take care of. I’ll give my wife a hug for you.

I’m so stealing this. This is great.

That article was absolutely fascinating. I knew that leafleting was a common propaganda tactic, never thought about it using nudity and sex. Had heard of Tokyo Rose and Jane Fonda.

Most mowers are four stroke like automobile engines, this includes pushmowers. Modern ones even have oil filters. Generally, riding mowers have two cylinder v-twin engines and pushmowers are single cylinder.

Two stroke engines are generally found on smaller things like chainsaws and weed eaters.

You mix special oil into the gas for two strokes. They do produce more smoke, especially when first started.
