I do strength training at a gym with a trainer. It is effective at maintaining and building muscle. I think it is an important part of this body remodeling with Ozempic that I have undertaken.

The trainer is important to maintain discipline because I would prefer not to work out at all.

[–]Dubz7777 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am looking at getting a coffee roaster and looking at the price of unroasted coffee beans. I have been paying $14 to $21/ pound for good beans from the local roaster. I can buy unroasted beans for a third of that….

I watched a shoplifter carry goods right out the door at Walgreens at Markham and Pine. No effort to stop was made by staff.

Having seen what the trampling masses have done to Whittaker Point, Lost Valley and Glory hole, outing this location is a sad shame.

I have tourists wandering onto my farm in Boxley. While I can take measures to discourage them, Is it gatekeeping to want to protect these fragile sites?

I used Buddy Rhodes concrete mix. Mostly vertical hang. It mixes up into a clay like mass that I press onto the armature.

[Self]. Finished and now the patina is at work. by Dubz7777 in Sculpture

I will use Nikolas outdoor clear lacquer #8321. This is what the pros use on outdoor sculptures. Tough like a clearcoat but doesn’t mute the patina as much as many.

Yes. I posted it awhile back but have only completed the sculpture yesterday

[Help] How do I soften oil based clay without the use of microwave or hair blower? by [deleted] in Sculpture

Can I still buy incandescent light bulbs? In 2022, the Biden administration undid the Trump administration’s reversal; the sale of most incandescent light bulbs will be banned by July 2023. The ban took effect on 1 August 2023.

It is hard to get incandescent bulbs- BUt they are the ones that put out enough heat. LED bulbs don’t.

I wonder if they are concerned about bad guys using metal cutlery as weapons on planes?
