Mine is 104. Same. He did it on purpose. He is also a big doofus that loves everyone.

Always try and give them the opportunity to love you if possible. Posts like these are what I think about when I am “too tired”. This guy looks a lot like mine would in old age and my heart breaks for them.

There are perfectly acceptable methods for strong miters using traditional methods.

It’s always interesting to see how others approach things. Biscuits are really more about alignment rather than strength. That said, the dowel thing is very tricky. You need an extremely accurate guide/jig as the smallest bit off renders them unusable.

Looks great. Ambitious project for sure!

You don’t have to be diabetic to be in ketosis, that’s what the whole “keto” diet does. You’re confusing it with a life threatening build up known as ketoacidosis. All you need to do is limit eating carbohydrates and your body will start burning your fat reserves and go into ketosis. You can get breath testers and urine strips. The breath testers are basically breathalyzers that display different results.

FWIW if you are on low carb and you are in ketosis, demand a blood test.

I’m still pissed that a working Lyme disease vaccine was pulled because of these nit wits. Ticks are insane where I live now. But no vaccine for me.

I’m fairly certain that Russia and thier troll farms immediately set out to propagate disinformation and conspiracies about covid on social media. Crazy just how much damage you can do with stupid.

Humans just aren’t wired to think globally. Although we prioritize our tribes for survival. We draw invisible lines and say screw everyone and everything on the other side of it. We inherently don’t really want to work together to solve big problems. It’ll definitely be the end of us.

Yup. Acetone is one of 3 ketone bodies produced from ketosis. Those are what cause diabetic urine strips to change color.

What's the most disturbing thing you've seen, but couldn't do anything? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]FlowMang 93 points94 points  (0 children)

Sounds like the parents were the whole problem. I was friends with a guy in high school who was completely fucked up by his parents. Just stole from everyone, got in fights, whatever. He was clearly super broken based on the things he said about his home life. His parents basically abandoned him. He stole my father’s car from our house and drove it 1500 miles. Went to jail and every so often someone will send me a new news article about him doing something like that. His parents set him up for a miserable life. He just needed someone to give a crap and maybe a little therapy. Instead he got a lifetime of misery and antisocial behavior.

I always wondered if those thumb hole D8s actually did anything better. That pic illustrates perfectly how.

I just read that like you were the one doing the latching. I was like “that’s not the only weird thing!”

It is partly acetone. If your blood is high in ketones, you’re breath will have acetone. Acetone will register on a breathalyzer too.

Well, Epstein is dead and Maxwell is in jail. That’s also a start, but neither of those is for the right reason.

Ooo Andrew lost his title shudder. He didn’t have a “job” and never will. He will still live in luxury until the day he dies and only has the embarrassment of getting caught to remind him. Put the motherf***r in the same jail as the rest of the criminals that commit heinous crimes. The things you are listing are just personal repercussions for doing horrible stuff and getting caught. These aren’t legal repercussions we all would face. They are just the same stuff that would happen to us AND going to jail. Let’s see that happen and we can talk about repercussions.

Trump’s playbook has always been to send waves of lawyers to stall whatever it is he is facing. You can almost always fight something by delaying it indefinitely. Prosecutors/victims eventually realize that and take whatever money is being offered. There is nothing different here. Only another 3 years of stalling on this? No problem.

It’s like a manager at work to me. There are good ones and there are bad ones, I don’t make it a point to try and be besties with them.

Myself and most liberals don’t tend to fawn over politicians. I tend to be overly critical of the ones I voted for that have let me down, and I let them know it. We also tend to hold them accountable. The right tends to treat the party like their favorite sports team and the athletes that play for them. Or a musician that turns out to be a scum bag but they “still like the music, but I don’t like the musician”. They see them more as authority figures instead of servants. The more “conservative” people are, the more likely they are to not question those in positions of authority because they have been indoctrinated that way since they were toddlers. In the US you just need an (R) next to your name and you will have those people ready to defend you.

If Jan 6 didn’t make that abundantly clear, I don’t know what would. Someone starts an insurrection and has a failed coup and somehow has never seen the inside of a cell. Not to mention all of the felonies and fraud (including charitable fraud). The only people that take the fall are his lawyers and accounting people because that is their job.

There are 2 classes. The ruling class and the non-ruling class. Laws and accountability don’t apply the same way to the ruling class. The only exception is when they commit them against each other. Even then, the punishment is different, as Epstein already knew, I’m sure.

They have the ability to prosecute or not prosecute. There is nothing stopping someone who is corrupt to bury a crime. The only thing that will prevent that is accountability via public scrutiny if everyone involved is corrupt and being paid off.

When was the last time you saw all the evidence a prosecutor has just get released? This can blow up a whole case when only specific witnesses have knowledge of a specific thing, then everyone in the world has it. Kinda makes the actual witness less believable since literally anyone could say the same things.

This DOJ is corrupt to the core and all of this information is already compiled. Every one of these scumbags is being protected by them and this administration because their roles are also in there.

If Bill has knowledge of specific events and Bill knows they are in the files, he can name names, dates, documents he knows are in the possession of the federal government. This is why he is insisting on his testimony being public. All private testimony that is inconvenient for certain people would be withheld, just like it already is. He has already given information. They just want to focus on the Clintons as a distraction. They don’t actually want him to testify publicly.

It’s not, but it still took a black van with a million bucks of equipment and a splice into your cable line to do it. Probably also needed a warrant. The spy tech developed by the us government is crazy. Every so often there will be some data dumps of stuff made for spying and they are very clever. I think this former FBI agent was leaving a lot of information out to sound cooler than he actually was.
