Looks like Brown Rot. Trim off the parts with it showing, and if the tree foliage is super dense do some trimming to open up the airflow. Make sure if you are watering it the water is not getting sprayed directly on the trunk or foliage.
It is a week old magazine at this point. The issue appears to be that i was not switching to magazine search instead of whatever the search defaults to (threads?). Seems like something worth improving on, if I'm searching for a topic i would obviously be interested in magazines on that topic too, not just posts that mention the topic. Thank you for the reply!

Having an issue I hope someone can help with:
I created a magazine (https://kbin.social/m/Frenchies) but when I use the Kbin search at the top of the page, it does not appear? I've tried various search terms, but neither the magazine nor the post I made in it show up. I have 2 subscribers, but I think they came from direct links I posted in other's comments.
Do I need to somehow make the magazine public? Or index-able? I added Tags in the tag section of the magazine. Hoping someone can help out, I really need my dog picture fix!
Hi all, I have a raised garden bed in the front of my house (south facing). It is set a few feet back under a roof overhang, so it gets basically no rain or sun....
If your bed is absolutely isolated and there is no way for the runner roots to escape, mint would be a good option. Really make sure it's isolated though, dig down to the bottom and make sure it doesn't connect to your other dirt areas like lawn or other planters. If there is a way for it to escape it will, and it will take over.
While they're cute and all, chipmunks are destroying the root systems of some well-established shrubs in my yard. Does anyone have any tested and proven methods for repelling them from certain areas? I don't want to poison or trap the little buggers, but I'd like them to stop killing things. I also don't want to make any of the...
This works great, but I suggest using powdered (like how cyanne pepper usually comes) instead of flakes. Flakes encourage birds to give them a taste and I cant imagine its good for them.
My neighbor has a groundhog living under their porch. They don’t seem to mind and neither did I, until I found one of my tomato plants had been eaten. I’m 99% sure it was him because I’ve seen him hanging out in my driveway....
Hi again v13, we're the pest fighting pepper homies today lol
This does work, however groundhogs (and many ground or below ground rodents) navigate and "view" the world largely with their sense of smell, so powdered pepper can basically blind them or cause a lot of torment.
You can do a similar thing with shorter term consequences by using oil-based scents instead of powder. Garlic, crushed lavender, home fragrances such as the liquid from glade plug-ins, e-cigarette juice, a perfume or cologne you want to get rid of, etc. All of these will have a similar effect to the cayenne but without permanent damage.
Or if you really want to go with the pepper solution I'd suggest emulsifying it with a blender and cooking oil so that the particles are at least mostly trapped in the oil.
Not all fossils are bones. (Or shells. Or teeth.) Most of us would agree that mammoth tusks and Stegosaurus spikes are pretty darn cool. And yet, the fossil record is not limited to old body parts. "Fossils" are defined as any "naturally preserved remains or traces of [life forms] that existed in the geologic past."
Hey music nerds! I'm in the process of planning my low-budget wedding, and unfortunately a DJ is one of the things that does not fit into our price budget. So I have been creating two playlists - one which is more PG for the first half of the night, and one which is more raunchy for the late night party. I think I may need to...
Thanks for your reply! All attendees are old enough to not worried about having to have clean versions of tracks, no kids present. No 'first dance' with the bride, but we will be dancing together with people. There will be an explicit break from one playlist to the other, about 3 hours after the ceremony.
So pg playlist is 3+ hours long, party playlist is about 2 hours to be safe.
I really like the look of figured maple with electronics, I've tried making a few different things out of figured maple but the only time I feel like it isn't too "busy" is when its broken up with something like the black speaker cones. It looks very nice, well done OP!
How did sanding go for you? That stuff always makes me want to take a damn angle grinder to it.

Whenever I feel grouchy I try to remember to enjoy the little things. Like a warm seat on a sunny morning.
