Again: The appeal was made from Ossoff and Warnock, directly to Biden. …and it was Biden himself promising on-camera yesterday that every individual who needs federal help will get it. I’m merely making a comparison.

FEMA told me to get a hotel, save my receipts, and wait for the presidential declaration that never came, but I’m merely talking about how his gaffe relates to his tweet this morning… and to Ossoff and Warnock’s open letter to Biden and his rejection...

Don’t put too much stock into their evaluation. According to them there was one death and no injuries in what was previously the worst tornado of 2021… and yet I was injured. Not like I kept quiet about it either...

Not exactly. He gaffed a couple months ago by saying that we don’t call them that anymore… right after rejecting Ossoff and Warnock’s appeal for individual aid: As someone left injured and homeless by a direct hit from the strongest part of this EF-4 tornado, I am obviously upset. Clearly, he...

At least Biden finally acknowledges that tornados exist and responded to this one.

Gah! We messed up the listing by accidentally substituting a normal Series 1 card (5-Up Mushroom) for the Walmart-exclusive 1-Up Mushroom card. Even though it included the correct card it pictured and described the wrong one, which explains why other listings recently sold for over $320 and mine...

He’s calling you a wumao, obviously. A paid Chinese propaganda shill. Textbook shill wolf-warrior comeback. I’ve even seen them say that to people I know who lived there for a decade plus and only came back in the last year or so. They say it to imply that Xinjiang or China or whatever has...

I’m suddey forced to sell what remains of my collection after an EF-4 tornado. I saw the Walmart variant box alone sell for $300 over 17 years ago, less than a year after starting this thread. While I don’t expect that much these days, my complete copy is listed right now: Let’s see where this...

Yeah, I already had my N95 masks over a week at that point. :) Bought them at Lowe’s the day after I saw sites in Chinese instructing Chinese abroad to buy them and ship to China. Lowe’s shelves were already bare but I found some extras hanging at an end cap.

At 12:04 Midnight on March 26th of this year I took a direct hit from the strongest part of a long-track EF-4 that went 38.9 miles right through “The City of Homes.” The NWS report says one death and no injuries but that simply isn’t true. Though the death was in the immediate aftermath*, that’s...

I was looking for an old link that I posted. Couldn’t find it.

Yeah, I actually watched that exact video before posting. Looked like everyone is using hammer drills, which I don’t have. I do have an emergency roadside 12v impact wrench but it is just meant for loosening tire lug nuts. Hoping for something that works with a regular drill but I saw at least a...

It seems to be working! Of course, I can’t actually plug it into the car until I can make a hole through cinder block. When I signed the lease there was a hole that I planned to use but they filled it in. It wasn’t ideal for an EVSE anyway since that side is in the woods and the pavement is...

What was my “geopolitical conclusion” when he broke out the R-word? Tell me.

I’m always annoyed at how food packaging often gives you wattage-specific instructions but then most microwaves don’t have the wattage anywhere. It’s rarely printed on the front and only sometimes inside the door. It’s usually not even on the back to infer from the consumption ratings, assuming...

Nah, I bumped it with the post that’s still there after I unexpectedly ended up on the last page of the forum (not sure how). Saw a bunch of Dennilfloss posts and knew something was up. Read one thread and wondered if anyone shared my sentiment. FWIW, I got my cable modem a year earlier. It was...

Ah, the days when you had time to make a post while a song downloaded. How quaint.

Thanks. The plan is to seal up whatever hole I make for the cable to keep outdoor pests out so we probably couldn’t just come and go with it. J1772 EVSE handle mount designs are all over thingiverse so I only need to add a lock of some kind with something to keep it out of the rain. Annoyingly...

Setting up in a workshop after getting displaced from a tornado. Considering the placement by a window they boarded up AFTER I signed the lease, I figured this NEMA 5-20 was for higher-amp air conditioners: NOPE! Found out the hard way that this has 220v. Luckily I only fried a work light and...

Just came across this old post from January: How about a year later (March 2021)? Considering vaccination rates at the time, it looks like it was still one in six cases reported based on seroprevalence... and we all know that serological tests fail to detect older infections even though...

I do think it has a purely zoonotic origin. I do think it was spreading months before it was detected, possibly much more slowly. Even if it leaked from a lab I don’t think the lab engineered it... merely studied it. Even studying a natural sample can lead to a lab leak which does not mean they...

No one suggested his last name had any bearing on whether or not it was a lab leak. It was about how likely the article is to be soft-power propaganda, as well-written as it is. I thought it was a good read and made many valid points and would not say he can’t be trusted just because of his...

You have a strange definition for “racist.” How is the reality that the name is a common Chinese surname “a racist trope?” Reality = Racist? ...but, clearly, you are trying to call me racist for noticing or acknowledging the possibility. Recognizing a common Chinese surname in an article that...

You sure you want to endorse that as “good?” I see at least a few hallmarks of face-saving, soft-power, Chinese propaganda and Wolf Warrior diplomacy. I think the biggest evidence against lab leak is the frozen sewage testing from Spain or France or wherever that tested positive for the virus...

All this talk of stickers and cards and, well, I haven’t seen my vaccination card since the night of the tornado over two months ago... or at least I don’t recall seeing it. Hope I won’t need it any time soon.

If you are vaccinated: Who cares? Just go.

Yeah. I think a lot of that is because you can predict and anticipate hurricanes so they get thoroughly reported and tracked for days in advance. The major outbreak that got us had the only EF-4 on record this year in an area that isn't particularly prone to tornados so it's not as easy to...

LOL! Exactly. A typical cyclist would've just blown the light since they don't have to worry about their bad behavior getting bikes banned. For eScoots everyone's gotta be on their best behavior until they are ubiquitous if they don't want the city legislating against them.

When I stop at a traffic light with our Segway Ninebot ES3 Plus someone invariably wants to ask questions about it, usually as soon as I get the green light. “How long does the battery last?” “How much was that?” “How fast is it?” “Where did you buy it?” “Do you really have to stop at lights?”...

It’s not all supply side. After the March 25/26 tornado super outbreak across Alabama, Georgia, and beyond thousands and thousands of homes are being rebuilt or getting new roofs and other major repairs. It still looks like The Tunguska Event outside so it’s a shame so much of that potential...

Ugh, that was his public position back then too. Where were you last year when Fauci and the CDC and the US Surgeon General and CNN and everyone else publicly reversed their position on cloth and surgical masks? That was when Trump first announced that it wasn’t mandatory and everyone flipped...

This? http://www.portvapes.co.uk/?id=Latest-exam-1Z0-876-Dumps&exid=threads/non_political-china-coronavirus-thread.2575795/page-284#post-40134590 ...though I recall something even closer to what you describe with a video documentary showing them collect the samples but that was probably pre-2019 with regards to finding the...

Just clothes and fashion accessories here. I would give them the stink eye for even asking for my contact details. If they got it from a credit application or something I’d feel it was an abuse of the information I provided.

Heard a Dillard’s manager complaining that an associate made a $1,700 sale and didn’t ask for contact details to call the client back to thank them later. He doesn’t want them to be a cashier. I dunno... as a customer I don’t think I’d want that call.

Not sure I qualify as a ginger with my brown hair but my beard is red. :)

Let us join forces and conquer the world. You can be the Redbeard of Saskatchewan. I’ll be the Redbeard of the Chattahoochee.

I found that the hook that locks the folding stem to the rear fender was really loose so I dug out the T-handled wrench it came with and tightened it up. Nothing else appeared loose but I found what looked like two set screws beneath the folding mechanism and got a little turn out of each. I...

I distinctly remember an exchange he had where he mocked skeptics who deny a link and backed up his mockery with the “fact” there there are more autistic people than ever. I will say that there are more DIAGNOSED these days but that just means it was often undiagnosed before, which is a nuance...
