@grumpasaurus 🤔 Well, I've put DVDs and CDs in them...

@Fury Yeah, It's kinda heavy. I don't think the post is going to hack it. Will try to that tomorrow, but I may have to rethink how to mount that (aside from perching it on some cinder blocks) 🤔

@Fury Well, I can put a second post in if needed farther back a few inches....

Just sitting here minding my BBQ ribs and a swarm of bees showed up :shrug: - maybe they would like some smoked pork ribs?

@ai6yr@m.ai6yr.org avatar

@lkngrrr They just show up here, all the time. Even before we were beekeeping. Even before we lived here, according to one of our next door neighbors. There's a magic bee swarm magnet here, I think.

Went to the first ever here in my town just to check it out and meet some of the folks running it (tbh, I'd only heard of its existence yesterday).

Not 10 minutes later, I was accidentally volunteered to help fix small appliances! I managed to help out with one of several broken humidifiers (bad bearings on an easily-replaced motor), but had no tools to do much else. I'll be at the next one, this time legit: with meters, soldering supplies, and maybe some parts!

I find it odd, to say the least, that you know these people harm and kill human beings (including vulnerable people) all the time, but what finally gets people vocally riled up and active is finding out they harm domesticated non-human animals.

This says something to me about how (some) people view people as somehow deserving of their own victimization.

@ai6yr@m.ai6yr.org avatar

@meganL The "only care when animals are hurt" is a strange one, but definitely see this a lot. Thus people donating a lot to help animals in a third world country while the humans living there are suffering from lack of food, sanitation, etc. as well. I don't know why that is the case, and it's sad we humans devalue other human lives--and are only concerned when animals/pets get involved.

ai6yr,
@ai6yr@m.ai6yr.org avatar

@meganL Most certainly. The farther right someone is the more "they deserved it" is uttered, even for innocents. This is why, even though it was the leading cause of those in law enforcement during the pandemic, the reaction was really "oh, they weren't strong enough; only the strong survive" vs "let's try to protect our own with vaccination/masking"

Organic certified wood glue! (In all seriousness, condiment containers are superior to what wood glue is sold in normally. This is bulk refilled) #woodworking
