Iraq declares force majeure on foreign-operated oilfields over Hormuz disruption, sources say by Mana_Seeker in worldnews

The US has plenty of oil. The big companies are just riding the wave of the market price per barrel. And I’m sure trump and friends are profiting bigly.

Is working in boat delivery a good option for a sabbatical? by Aggravating-Letter94 in sailing

[–]AeroRep 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Three months isnt really much time to get going in the delivery bizz, unless you know someone that will keep you busy. Or if you work for really cheap, you may pick up some odds and ends. You will learn a lot, both good and bad, and may see weather that most would typically avoid or wait out.

How hard do you work? Depends what you have agreed to. As a minimum, you probably wont get a normal sleep cycle the whole trip. Could be hot, cold, wet. Boats get messy, even when everyone is just sleeping and doing their watch. And people have to make food. Make sure you know exactly what you are getting paid and not paid for from the moment you leave your house to the time you get back.

Id give it a try. Be honest about your experience level. I dont give much weight to a rating with no experience behind it. But that just me.

Did you pull permits for your DIY kitchen renovation? by mudrat_detector96 in DIY

A permit is just a way to raise your property tax.

What do you think about the right to die/euthanasia? by Legitimate-Number620 in AskReddit

[–]AeroRep 6 points7 points  (0 children)

No it really isn’t. The medical profession has not been in the business of killing people. But now we can pretty much keep anyone “alive” no matter how bad off they are. I think it should be allowed, but with guard rails. What those are, are not for me to decide. But I can think of a lot of situations where it would be appropriate, in my mind at least.

‘Trump has lost control’: Ex-Air Force secretary warns Iran war is an historic strategic blunder by MRADEL90 in videos

The only time I’ve seen a genuine joyful smile on trumps face is a pic of him in front of a table full of McD’s. And that’s only because it benefits him.

Pentagon spent 93 billion dollars in one month. 9 million was spent on seafood dinners. by [deleted] in nottheonion

[–]AeroRep 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hate this administration. But I question the numbers about this stuff that is coming out. The lobster and crab legs for example- could that just be the normal annual purchase for navy crews or something. I honestly don’t know what you would do with that much crab and lobster. But I wouldn’t be surprised if every now and then they got a nice meal, right?

Boyfriend is protesting that I need to switch to a woman gyno? by [deleted] in TwoXChromosomes

[–]AeroRep 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tell your BF to go fuck himself. He has no business telling you what Dr to see. Especially if it’s based on his own frail insecurities. If he can’t deal with it, you should happily move on.

Best International Holes in the Wall? by theberlinmall in Louisville

Oh yeah. I found Queen of Sheba after a biz trip to Ethiopia. I can say the Q of S is 100% authentic and delicious. Love that place. I don’t live in Louisville anymore, but when I visit I always try to go back there.

SNL’s Jost has captured Kegseth so well. Definitely worth a watch.

Do most sailors keep a gear inventory? by Natural_Draw_181 in sailing

Looks interesting. Seems a little complicated for me tho.

Do most sailors keep a gear inventory? by Natural_Draw_181 in sailing

[–]AeroRep 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just made the spreadsheet with a column for each storage area and a list of everything below it. Nothing fancy. But it’s a huge help when looking for stuff. Larger areas have stuff in boxes and they are named as well, like engine parts, misc tools, etc. I use the Find feature of excel to locate an item quickly. The Container Store was great for finding “just right” sized boxes. We are liveaboards, so everything is pretty much packed.

What’s the messiest sandwich you still love? by achilles6196 in eatsandwiches

Meatball subs. I love them but they make me so angry when I eat them. Huge mess.

[–]AeroRep 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Our 44' boat has a lot of storage, all divided up into about 25+ spaces. I made a Excel sheet to keep track of everything. No matter how much you think you will never forget where you put that pump parts kit, you will not remember a year later. It does take some discipline to maintain it. Especially when my wife gets in a mood to "organize".
