Why don’t you save All the money you’ve earned?

If I didn’t eat, I’d have money to burn!

Don’t let a couple kooks spook you.

If you’re rough on your body, they can be an absolute godsend.

I’m at the point where I can’t always get my skeleton to go back to where it ought to be, and a good chiro can find exactly which bones aren’t.

Last one I went to was during a bicycle tour. The campsite wasn’t ideal, and I awoke not being able to look left. Like at all. Turn to the right, ow that hurts, try to turn left, head stops straight forward, sharp spike of pain and no further movement.

Well whatever. Break camp, mount up, ride a couple miles. Now I’m warm and loose, right? Do some stretches. Go through as much of the routine as I can, get some pops and creaks, but still can’t turn my fucking head. Slightly better.

Pedaling like this is a fucking bastard, because it’s not just my neck, I’m all fucked up, but the road lies ahead and we go.

Get into town some hours later, have some lunch, a couple beers, still can’t move for shit, see a sign for a chiro. Guy does walk-ins, thank god. Gets what we’re doing, says ‘well, I’m never gonna see you again, so I’ll do the best I can in one go’

I think that motherfucker popped every goddamn vertebrae in the whole spine, and some of em twice.

Felt like a new man. Finally felt those beers. Rest of the tour went fine

Acetylene does, gas lines are standard pipe.

Suppose it’s cause natural gas runs at like, 1-3 psi, while a fresh tank of acetylene is 5,000?

Least in the US

And they are adding, fast. Far faster than we are. That goal of nearly ten percent solar in less than two years?

That’s not only fucking amazing, that’s achievable, and they’re on target for it.

As cheap as panels and controllers and batteries have gotten? It’s only getting better.

Free electricity. From the fucking sky. Magic is real. You can play xbox with it

So I have a solar setup-older panels, like 15 years old. They can be 3/4 obscured by a building or whatever, and still make 85% of what they’re rated to.

Which is fucking awesome. Right now, they’re covered in so much dust I can see the ‘clean’ spots where the morning dew condensed on them, and they’re still kicking 20 amps, about 15 more than I actually need.

Daily cleaning? Way excessive. Monthly? Maybe, probably less. Not a whole lot going on in between rails.

I’d be way more worried about tweakers trying to steal the wiring

The cleanliness of the panels isn’t actually as big a deal as it’s made out to be. Like yeah, they can’t be completely obscured, but you’d be surprised at how fucking filthy they can be and still make juice. Or half-or more- covered with trees, or other shade.

Right now, my panels are covered in enough crap I really should hose them off, and they’re still kicking 20 amps. So ahhh… fuck it. Maybe it’ll rain and I won’t have to.

Same with cloudy days-sometimes I get more power on cloudy days because the panels don’t get at hot. Hell, some streetlights put out enough light to harvest energy from-but they’re largely getting replaced with LED’s. Sad face?

I expect with the type of traffic going on between rails, these will need vanishingly little maintenance. I hope it goes well

Yeah, this seems like the ‘joke’ is that only guys with tiny dicks would want to transition.

Which has nothing to do with it

The culture war, you know, the one where a lot of folks think it’s great we have things like birth control and public transportation and stuff.

And then a few other folks that think -basically, boiled down the real truth of it- that everyone that isn’t a white male should be a slave to white males.

Obviously the best way to fight this is education, which a particular side has been hellbent on destroying, and considering what I was taught in public school, has been pretty effective about it.

Does it get to their wet dream of wantonly murdering folks in the street like they fantasize about? Well, we lost more people on our side in the 2020 protests than they did.

Probably something to with believing people are humans, and should be treated with dignity.

So get some goddamn guns and go to the range. I’d rather have it and not need it, and know how to fucking use it

Once again, I understand the best way to win is education. My short patience and compassion is entirely spent on people near me, so if you can go around teaching ignorant morons right from wrong please do. They already know. Their in-group lets them get away with it

Sounds like it’s as random as the list this sherrif’s putting together, don’t it?

Well the way things are currently, is that certain people get murdered and shit on for super arbitrary reasons, so uhh.

Yeah. Fuck em

For dickbags to exercise power and control over people.

I mean, I’m pretty sure that’s a fistful of felonies.

Like if you or I had done that, we’d still be in prison

Shit, my panels were still kicking at 95% when covered in a layer of dirt so thick I had to hose them, and wash em twice.

Now they’re back up to 99%, and they’re about ten years old

Well sonofabitch.

That explains why my setup starts cranking early in the morning, but is kinda piddly in the afternoon, when, by my eyes, there’s even more direct light on them.

Had honestly never heard temp mattered at all

Check out how much solar china’s put up this year.

Solar is absolutely the future

Ding ding ding

Wow, you’re lame as hell

Absolutely fucking never
