@coffeeandhoney Yet another defenestration.

@TheNewsOwl It looks like whatever that truck was carrying ignited.

I previously designed and built this full walk-in closet in the main bedroom. Previously, this closet was also just an empty room with a single overly long curtain rod.

#homerenovation My next DIY project: A set of built-in shelves and double hangers for this wall of my son's closet. Currently, the closet has a single overly-long rod and a dresser inside it, but is not very functional.

I just pinged my 4k followers on twitter that I was shuttering that account permanently in 24 hours. That place has a sickness, and I don't see and end to it.

@MindfulWilliam Huh. I like the idea of capturing the heat from a pile! I hadn't thought of that. Mind you, I don't have a use for it... no chickens, no greenhouse, and the wife would never allow the messiness of a working pile. But I do compost. Here is my solution. I built it out of hemlock (rot resistant). Two active chambers, alternated when filled. Sawdust from the wood pile and fire place ash for carbon and kitchen scraps and cuttings for nitrogen.

@LlamaMountainStudioArts We could take things into our own hands to protect against a shortage... <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Canadian_Maple_Syrup_Heist>

Actual end result...

We had 24 hours where the local temp was below -1 F, and reached -20F before wind chill. My solar more than offset the energy needs all of my electric usage, including the needs of my geothermal heat pump over the 24 hour period. So I heated and ran the electric in my house on the coldest day of the year without purchasing or paying for utilities.
Yeah. renewables make sense.

I know I am lucky to be able to feel this. It is a privilege. I have family with me. Not everyone does. Nor does everyone have the wherewithal to feel warm and safe. Know that if you don’t feel this, you could. Seek love. Cleve toward those that can validate you. Know you don’t have to be alone.

Do you ever feel fortunate? I am overwhelmed by that feeling tonight. -20 outside. But we are warm and safe. And we feel each others love. Even my teenager is expressive in the face of the threat just outside our doors. Tribalism is a dirty word these days. But it has a powerful positive force inside it: Support. Comfort. Love… do you feel it?

@Heucuva8 isn’t that how the whole “Terminator” thing started

@CriticalCupcake Wars will be fought over this... I hear Colorado is stockpiling it, "just in case."

@BlueVoter24

Unless otherwise shown to be the case, I choose to believe that the Biden scandal was manufactured by either the Trump cronies or by the republicans. There was some Watergate-type shenanigans involving break-ins and planted files from Trump's stash. I am confident that this will be revealed in due time through the on-going actions of the other special counsel. #politics

@GreenProgressive This is rather like the "cigarette papers" which resulted in billions in tobacco company liability in law suits. The potential financial impact here will eat ExxonMobile's lunch. #timetogetoutofoil

@TheNewsOwl "This is what happens when you don't recycle your pizza boxes..."

Everyone alive on this planet today, and everyone born into the next 2 generations needs to behave in an emergency mode with respect to climate change. Do it now or you will regret it down the road. What is happening out west right now (a toxic mix of wildfires, biodiversity loss, flooding and drought) is just the beginning of a progressively worsening condition for life on Earth. Bring changes into you life, and demand change from institutions. #ClimateChange #greenenergy

@thewebrecluse Her burns are the sickest! I hope those around her appreciate what find she is.

Here is one for the resistance:
