For Real. J6 built a gallows.

The Donner party were a group on the Oregon trail that got stuck on a mountain pass in the winter and resorted to cannibalism to survive. The Dollup did a really good podcast episode about it.

Also the cafe in the University of Colorado UMC is named "The Alfred Packer Gill". Alfred Packer was a similar famed cannibal.

Perfect for the emergency situation where you would need them!

Especially odd to mention the availability of a ramp under a picture of her motioning to stairs.

I'm glad they can make a joke that's not just "_____ identifies as _____"

regulations like these are written in blood

Absolutely 100% completely. But in this case it I'm not sure the church is actually violating codes, but rather the city is using the claim as a smokescreen to punish them for helping homeless people.

This article quotes the city.

Bryan's planning and zoning administrator gave the church 10 days to stop housing people, saying it was in a zone that does not permit residential use on the first floor.

Iirc it was them being pro vaccine. My old carhart jackets were still good but I went and bought another after that anyway.

I voted for that bowl of tapioca once and I'll do it again.

That is the worst idea ever. When I drove a snow plow I would shift from forward to reverse and back hundreds of times a storm. Without taking my eyes off my surroundings.

nothing says healthy democracy like a competitave candidate having a "secretary of retribution"

My favorite is truck nuts. Did the truck want bottom surgery?

As someone who has decades of experience safely hauling loads of all shapes and sizes I'll add my two cents:

Any load hanging out the back of the truck needs to be flagged. If a car behind me could hit the cargo before my truck, it's getting a big bright flag. (most big box stores have them for free right by the exit)

Hauling anything with the tailgate down is asking for problems.

Composite decking is surprisingly easy to snap when unsupported. He should have pulled the back of the unibody off with a trailer for this. (Or jackknifed it into the shiny dumpster failing to back it up)

Anything that you could see blowing around in a tornado needs to be strapped down. Almost anything will fly out of a bed at highway speeds. Ratcheting straps in an x from corner to corner for 90% of the time.

Every truck has ratcheting straps ready to go. Otherwise it's just a pavement princess/dick extender/soothing balm for fragile masculinity.

If you live in a state that hasn't joined the NPVIC push your state legislature to adopt it.

Got tired of reading it looking like the dude reading Larry's homework, but I couldn't find a better version either so I quickly remade it.

easy peasy. just lift the 100 kilo chunk of iron with some tongs. /s

1. manhole covers are heavy af
2. if improperly handled they can take your finger in an instant
3. that square cover might be able to fall into whatever it is covering.

The pie chart is not percent of a countries population. It's percent of total imprisoned people in the top twelve countries all together.

windbreaker?

Hextraction seems pretty cool.

A couple years ago I got a handful of F clamps for christmas.

My wife: "I thought you already have clamps"

Me: "Yes, I do. But not enough."

Wife: "How many is enough?"

Me: "One more than I have."

Also a little 18ga brad nailer makes those glueups way easier.
