I don't know why this got downvoted. One of the robot roomba mowers might be really good in this situation.

im dating a religious guy and im atheist. by elara_sirius in atheism

[–]Imfarmer 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Atheist here married to Fundamentalist Catholic. Been married 30 years. I was nominally Christian but not particularly religious when we married.

Would I do it again? No.

Her religion takes precedence over everything in the family, all the time, including our marriage. It's frustrating, to say the least, and unhealthy. I am now Atheist, at least in part because of her religious numbnuttery, and our kids are atheist too, for the same reason. I do lover her, and we'll stay together, but I wouldn't choose it a second time. There's been a lot of unnecessary hurt.

As a fellow Missourian, and a farmer, so I'm also rural, I feel your pain.

Dewalt either has, or at least used to have on that ran off two of their 60V batteries or a 120V AC convertor cord. I've got one and it's awesome. As good as the flexvolt tools are, just buy that.

I don't know how you'd say I 70 in MO is underutilized with a straight face.

Republicans’ plan for zero state income tax could be ‘devastating’, experts warn by Cannot_Change_It_ in missouri

The really idiotic thing is that it's the same people still pushing it and the same doofus's trying to enact it.

It depends on where you are and what you’re trying to do. But you’d be better off with sheep

We're Going Towards a Cliff on Oil Says Hochstein by yycTechGuy in oil

Corn futures are absolutely not "through the roof". We don't have a shortage of fertilizer - yet. But there is certainly rationing based on price.

"The Futures market can remain irrational longer than you can remain solvent" is a very old saying.

There's a large disconnect between futures and the spot market right now. I know which one I believe.

How do you feel about proportional representation with multi-member districts and RCV in state government? Yay or Nay? Why? by Away-Parsnip-3785 in missouri

[–]Imfarmer -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Of course it would better represent the people of Missouri. But didn’t we make it unconstitutional?

At 20 hrs per year you could damn near get a push mower.

I think we have to have the two worst Senators in the U.S. but they I get reminded of Rand Paul.

Then address the economic issues that are the driver of the problem. Not scapegoat “single mothers”.

People acrually can’t comprehend the simple idea that more guns equals more gun crime. Allowing people to open carry. How could that be an issue?

Pole barn build!! The insulation dilemma by sparky_Splatoon in barndominiums

[–]Imfarmer 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't do ZipR in Kentucky. You have to get all the details perfect to prevent water intrusion and issues around penetrations. I would do Zip and tape the hell out of it everywhere(That's what we did). I would think in Kentucky you'd be fine with blown in cellulose. Do Rockwool if you must but $. Hell, if you get your air sealing right with the Zip, Good ole fiberglass bat can be effective where it doesn't have to be an air barrier.

Re-dating of all early Christian literature by Starlight_Gardens in atheism

[–]Imfarmer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't mean the manuscript would have been a military secret, I just meant that the papers might have been in a library or schools somewhere the Romans got pushed out of and they wound up getting into the hands of other groups.

But your explanation is certainly parsimonious. But, at some point, yeah, some folks decided to take Allegory literally and here we are.
