I feel like Not Just Bikes would be a commie if he wasn't such a settler lib. He has all the critiques.
I often think this as well, and also for the Chanel 'More Perfect Union'. While useful I suppose for stealth injecting good ideas into libs I can't help but find liberal brainworms to be very annoyed at every video.
That crash at 12:30 is the most terrifying crash I’ve ever seen, that family came so close to being hit!
Fuck stroads
That’s super cool! Tablet weaving is fascinating, your work looks pristine!
Sometimes I wish we had a c/fiberarts or something, I would definitely post some knitting there
Absolutely

You may have a beautiful work of art historical weapon, but does it come in camo with a scope mount?
Light Crossbow because it doesn’t rely on stat scaling and with a lightning infusion you can do some major damage with lightning bolts.
Counterpropaganda is where you can post Mike83829293’s takes.
Phew, narrowly dodged that one
In all seriousness,
It promotes misanthropy and, depending on the post can serve as an outlet for “acceptable” bigotry by copy/pasting the most heinous takes without pushing back and sometimes without a CW.
This is why I don’t frequent those com’s so personally I’m happy to be seeing this addressed.
Why Dune when Andor has less bigly words?
The fact they keep insisting that the previous 4 years has been the greatest for labor movements in the last century, and that Biden is historically the most Union friendly president makes me feel some type of way.
They abandoned campaigning on things that would appeal to progressives and workers, and instead campaigned on policies designed to appeal to center right, or “moderate” republicans. Turns out 90% of republicans will vote republican anyways, and in the process they dumped a large portion of their historical voter base. Hence, the roughly 15million vote deficit this election compared to 2020’s Dem turnout. In fact, the numbers indicate that a portion of the Dem 2020 vote turned Red this election.
You have to confront voter apathy, the Reds do this by blaming minorities, the Blue’s fuck this up by insisting everything is great, and besides the other side is worse, so vote for 4 more years of the same!
It’s not hard to see how this messaging falls flat when you’re deciding between groceries and rent.
That’s very interesting, I wasn’t aware of that! I prefer adding books without having to boot up my desktop, definitely looking into this
I would suggest a Kobo e-reader, their cheap model is perfect imo.
If you would like to add more options to the software, there’s open source software you can easily side load called “Ko-Reader”, navigating pdf files is much easier than stock for example.
As far as walled gardens go, you can easily sync ebooks with your computer using Calibre to manage your library. You can also add books when out and about using your phone as a mobile hotspot if you enable the beta web browser on the kobo and use https://send.djazz.se/
Editing to add: I always either convert my pdf’s into epub’s using calibre or pirate the epubs directly, there aren’t many e-readers that do PDF’s well, and those are all pretty expensive. Things like the Onyx Boox or Sony’s Digital Paper Series
Stewed tomatoes straight from the can are an occasional craving, they’re very good
Surprisingly, it was in a kids bedroom and aside from some crayon marks was in amazing shape! Older wood furniture wasn’t made with modern apartment buildings and frequent moves in mind. My wife’s grandparents parked their butts and had the luxury of not moving for 60 years to accumulate all the heavy furniture they did, we’ve ditched all our furniture and started over twice in 5 years.
Same! I think it’s probably the best way to get quality furniture without having to pay a lot. When I married my spouse we got all of her grandma’s furniture, the only time I’ve regretted that is when we move, some of it is really heavy.
Speaking of heavy, a couple years back I picked up a really cool Mahogany 1920’s art deco desk off of a local marketplace, made by a local executive office furniture supplier that’s long gone out of business. It’s gotta be at least 10ftx5ft and weigh 200+ lbs. I picked it up for free but had to pay people to move it. Looks sort of like this one only wider in the middle. The planks that slide out above the drawers are absolute genius.
It’s on the lock screen, but I think only when the alarm is coming up
Edit: I can only get it to show up there when the alarm has gone off and I’ve snoozed it
I didn’t have any luck with brand new chairs, like you said they’re all $1,000+. Depending on your comfort with used furniture, local vintage might be your best bet. I dry cleaned the wool upholstery and then sanded and re-stained the wood and it looked almost new!
I was on the same hunt years ago and I ended up picking a vintage chair that I found locally, it looks a lot like this one.
Wood with wool upholstering, looks nice in my office which is mostly all wood furniture, and one of the comfiest chairs I’ve ever used for how I sit. I tend to sit cross legged in my chairs and since this is a flat cushioned bottom that works well.
It was free even, my one regret is not grabbing both of them
Edit: I looked up a city similar to my own and found a couple like what I have. https://chicago.craigslist.org/nwc/fuo/d/glen-ellyn-green-executive-high-back/7788738718.html
My first thought was when we wiped out the Neanderthals
