A lot of people set to go hungry next month. If you are able, consider donating food to your local food pantries. Stable shelf-life food items like canned goods are best.

This administration has abandoned the people of this country. We need to take care of each other.

I said I wouldn’t help this regime.. so, no, I don’t work for the government. I work for myself now.

Moving away was a joke tweet. The comedy obviously went over your head.

The β€œfascist nazi” term I never used. Although there are enough similarities that one could make the case for it.

Haven’t been with that company for nearly 3 years. And yes, I’m still in the US.

They wasted a day on crappy liquor, crappy food and a tape measure? 🀨

Yeah I was checking out the Shun knives. Seems like people like them. But I hear they’re more difficult to take care of. Like you have to hand wash them immediately- can’t let them sit unwashed for too long. And never in the dishwasher. But for top end knives I guess that’s just the deal.

Any recommendations on serious kitchen knives? Tips? Japanese vs German vs other?

And it seems like escalation is exactly what the administration wants. And the networks blow isolated incidents out of proportion - like the entire city is a battle zone, which it’s not.

I think this is just trump attacking a city and governor that he doesn’t like.

I moved to Boston a little while ago so I can’t really comment firsthand. Seems like it started out fairly minor and localized to specific areas - and peaceful from what I understand. But I think the response has been very heavy handed and physical - escalating instances.

Bit more maintenance..
Annually you need to get the air filter and inlet filter checked/cleaned and flush the system. Not difficult.

- best longevity
- top end BTUs (instant hot water)
- endless hot water
- 99% efficiency rating (unheard of in tankless on-demand water heaters)
- handles multiple showers/faucets, laundry, etc all at once
- option to control from an app
- no need for water tanks (save space)

Random tip - best hot water tankless heater - just get the Navien 240A2. Solves all problems.

Want to get super fancy about it? Get the NaviLink install to connect to an app.

I’m good, Jim. Had plenty of time to thicken mine. Just wanted to put the advice out there. Here for you too, friend.

Time will always break your heart and sew it back up. It’s on repeat though. Thicken that skin.

On whoever they want. All the bureaus are about to be their loyalists. There’s no oversight or checks and balances anymore - at least not in practice.

My guess: They’re going to use tax money to buy a bunch of crypto / β€œstable coins” as some sort of β€œfederal crypto reserves” - and then lose it all in a mysterious wallet hack.
