Yessir. Me and my brother ran the build, did project design, all the finish work (interior and exterior) and even did the landscaping.

I used to be a utilitarian. But I’ve learned that aesthetics, workmanship and durability absolutely matter.

I would rather take much longer and pay more to build something beautiful and durable. To me those are the optimal tradeoffs.

Ugly and shoddy stuff is demoralizing and uninspiring. Minimizing those properties in my personal space or anything I build is a priority.

I can no longer travel to the UK without downloading a government app first, so no longer relevantt.

Just when I thought I was out, they pull me back in.

I like discovering the ones that are not so obvious

The layerz man it’s so good!

Friendly reminder that you’re currently dying and this moment is the youngest you’ll ever be and your inevitable death is rapidly approaching and you’re likely stuck in a midlife delusion where you think what you’re doing is important and integral and it’s likely something that you’ll look back on at the end of your life and feel was ultimately pointless and wasted time and you’ll want it back and wish you weren’t so delusional in your 20’s, 30’s and 40’s because now that you’re old the pain of regret is crushing you like a boulder on your chest and you find yourself unable to move from under it. Omg you wasted all your time and there’s no going backwards. The delusion is gone, all you can do is sit in the regret. Why didn’t you say what you really thought? Why didn’t you do what you wanted to do? Whose life were you living? Why did you let them convince you to live it? How could you have been so misguided and delusional? How could you have been such a coward? but then you realize you’re on nostr and you’re still youngish and there’s still time and you just suddenly WAKE UP.

My grandfather's workbench also had a low ceiling overhead to which he affixed the LIDS of mason jars, and then he screwed the jars into the lids to hold screws and stuff. Screw it out, grab what you need, screw the jar back in place. It was an interesting space saving solution that also made for quick easy access.

Yours is looking great, too!

Slow and low to focus on technique. Kept a metronome running to keep a steady stroke rate. Gonna keep it like this for a week or two.

did you know you can make yarn from nettles?

I know they're a nuisance for most people but it isn't an often seen plant in my neck of the woods (actually, more like a desert)

Deep crew at the Kroger tonight

Really sad how much damage big pharma has done to the world
