I huff a lot of things

Back when Linens n Things was closing and liquidating, I bought a trash can that uses a weird sized bag, and I bought a bunch of packs of the bags on Amazon, a few hundred bags in total. For years afterwards my Amazon recs were often random trash bags. Like they think I collect trash bags for fun.

It's just a budget flux core welder. Cheap and easy to get started with. I've had a lot of fun with it, and I love the idea of trying out some other types of machines, but I'm running out of space in my garage for more tools.

So that’s some sort of clarinet from outer space?

I wanted more welding practice, and I also wanted a heavy duty rolling shop cart for my garage, so I built this. I’ll probably make some modifications after using it for a bit, but for the most part I’m pretty happy with how it’s come together so far.

As just a random guy who likes seeing the photos and stuff that you share here, I'm glad you beat those odds. Keep fighting!

Nice try.

Despite learning cursive almost 40 years ago, my signature is just a messy scribble, and I've never had a single check or any other document rejected or returned because of it.

Epic said after cutting a thousand jobs, they now have a bit over 4000 employees. So they had about 5k before. If revenue last year was $6B, then that averages out to around $1.2M of rev per employee.

If your business isn’t sustainable with $1.2M revenue per employee, you need new management.

I've had similar thoughts with a handful of games, this was f2p and I've enjoyed it, maybe I'll buy something to support the devs.

And often when I looked at their store, the items and prices are so obviously ridiculous and predatory that I decide I don't want to play anymore. Especially in mobile.

It’s impressive how often they manage to go with the dumbest ‘solution’ to things.

We were watching a restaurant cooking show and someone came into the kitchen and told the chefs that a customer was celebrating their birthday and asked to be served a cake or some other special non-menu dish. And I was like, wait, do people actually do that? And apparently it's not that uncommon??

I'm not sure if moves that sick can even be nerfed.

Congress filled up with performative politicians who'd prefer to actually do nothing, just let the executive branch and supreme court make the unpopular moves, while they embrace into all the various procedural hurdles that they can say stopped them from doing anything useful. Cowards, most of them.

This is neat, but I'm starting to think that very few states took their shape's suitability for an iceberg into account when drawing their borders. Such a lack of foresight.

I’ve been adding feeders to my yard over the past couple years, and for my birthday my mom got me one that has a camera built in, and that’s been fun.

My wife is a librarian, and back when the movies were still first being released, her library did a lot of Harry Potter events. I used my lathe to make some nice wooden wands for her and her coworkers, and eventually got talked into making almost a hundred of them for kids to decorate and keep.

The good news is that if you beat on the code enough to get it to work, at the end of it all, the player only sees that it works. They don't see the huge mess going on behind the scenes. Just scope really really really small, and game jams should be fun.

While a stroopwafel is awesome on its own, to make it even better, it's suggested that before eating it you warm it up by resting it on your cat's belly for a few minutes.

The price only seems excessive until you see all of the stuff inside of it that's included.

Two cats napping on a bed. The gray tabby cat is stretched out on top of a blanket, and the orange tabby cat is curled up against a green sweatshirt.

A picture of an orange tabby cat. The cat is sitting on the floor facing away from the camera, and his legs are sticking out and his head is bent down so that it’s being blocked by his body. The end result looks like a lumpy orange blob with some paws sticking out of it.

It’s early on a Monday morning, and Artie is already hard at work performing one of his most important jobs, drinking from the kitchen faucet.
