Now there's a book burning I could get behind.
Nope.
But if I had to burn some books...

And they're not "shareable" size either.
They're much too small to share.
Corporations ruin everything.
Nationalize candy bars!

Wishing my pops a happy 107th from the other side. Hope you're doing well. Say hi to mom. 🩵

Shoring arrived this morning. Better late than after someone gets trapped, oops.

@Minholkin
Love you too Min!
Your posts are always lovely and encouraging.

Good morning☕ from the afternoon side of the world, mate. I hope you have a good day & successfully accomplish your naps.

Yep, there it is. Wall collapsed and pinned the guy on the wall knee deep or so. You can see his boots in the hole they dug him out of.

Need wall plates below 5-6 ft depth IIRC.

I have violated this rule in a *much* deeper trench in the middle of winter in Wyoming -riding in the bucket down 15 ft it so to inspect archaeology in the walls - I was young & stupid.

A successful rescue needs a group photo.

I think there was some entrapment, as someone rushed a long iron bar over. The cat bucket was all the way down in the trench, so I thought maybe it had broken a hydraulic line and collapsed on the guy, but no fluid was evident around the place - and it would definitely be. They hauled him out on stretcher and gurney'd him to ambulance. Conscious, on drip. Boots and sox off. He'll be ok it seems. #NoOSHA

A round of applause just went up.

Someone is down in a trench on my block. Doesn't appear to be a collapse, and I saw people running to get cardboard to fan someone. Maybe it's heat exhaustion but there's three ambulances 2 fire trucks several cop cars and probably two dozen police and fire and EMT personnel. A lot of people looking in the ditch and I can't tell what's going on.

Shouldn't matter. Just whitelist Proton.

I don't think I've had a problem, but Nord can be hinky sometimes. ChromeOS.

Good morning 🌞 my beautiful CoSo friends. New shocks smooth out poorly maintained roads and keep you safe. While you're under there, check your brakes. Also, keep an extra key handy. This public service announcement is brought to you by #coffee ☕ 🩵🖖

Someone might say there's an unequal amount of good and evil in the world...

Do not hope that God is on your side, hope that you are on God's side.

Shoot, I "managed" a DQ in '71 for a dollar an hour. They couldn't keep real managers cuz they made less than that per hour.

That seems crazy that they would change them all at the same time - president Senate and House total new vote.

On top of president, Mexicans next year will also pick all the 128 senators and 500 members of the lower house of Congress, plus the choice of nine state governors including Mexico City’s, one of the most prominent political jobs in the country.

Good, but bread is low mass and that's what you're looking for in an emergency situation. Load up with them frozen bags of water. Put the bread down in the refrigerator. You got to have a bunch of bags in the freezer. After the power goes out, you can swap them into the refrigerator to keep it cool enough for several for days too.
