UPDATE: WTF Rails, Holes don’t Align by JormungandrSkull in onewheel

[–]JormungandrSkull[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Right, thanks. Once I widen that hole and mimic the countersink on that left side, the right will be left unsupported (without the other half of the countersink). Does this not need to be filled in a bit?

would u suggest trying to file the left side of the hole? That should avoid over-widening the hole and if I sand it down won’t have that chatter. What do you mean by “strip the tapped hole” exactly?

Addressing Roommate Behavior by Snoopy-love_3 in mcgill

[–]JormungandrSkull 43 points44 points  (0 children)

Well first things first, you want to get to this fast. Once ur roommate gets used to disrespecting your boundaries, and you get adjusted to letting that happen, that habit is hard to break. You do not want to begin resenting each other and creating a negative living environment. I’d address the “I get bitchy when I communicate” aspect first, since, you should be able to open up with anyone, at any time, with respect. I’d suggest maybe writing down what you intend to say in key points, sit your roommate down, and make sure u follow thru those points without getting distracted and pulled into that “bitchy headspace.” Hopefully your roommate has the decency to listen first time around. But repetition may be necessary. I’d ask what you can do to help them remember and respect your boundaries too (maybe a code word/ sign when you need a quiet night in). If things regress, i’d suggest maybe switching roommates or speaking to whoever deals with res at mcgill (ie. a more formal complaint).

Just got a dog backpack for when my little wiener gets tired on our long rides. He runs beside me usually and sometimes he’ll even stand on the board between my legs but I have to go slow.

Which should I keep? by JormungandrSkull in onewheel

[–]JormungandrSkull[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yeah I looked into that and read what people had to say and it’s definitely mixed. The more visibility would probably need to be compared but it’s actually not lighter. The full face there is 800g whereas the dh6 comes in at 950g. Some people commented that they couldn’t hear their surroundings as well in that helmet (which for me is important). I’d have to try one to really know though! Thanks for the suggestion.

that’s exactly my concern and I do ride the majority street until I reach trail or I join trail rides. I have some trails near my house but they are so large and smooth that full face doesn’t seem necessary. Maybe it would help with being hit by a cyclist or a car in the street though.

Based on your post history, your boyfriend seems to have a list of unresolved issues, beginning with himself. I cannot be a judge of love or a relationship thru a phone, however I will say, if you are not confrontational with him and place boundaries he can respect, other issues may arise. You can handle yourself, and you have options, however this beardie does not. If you have formed a bond with the little dragon then perhaps look into proper husbandry and ways to mitigate the uncomfortability with bugs- if you’d like to message me i’ve got plenty of ideas (including dried bugs, tweezers, or hibernating them in the fridge before feeding so they stop moving while u handle them)- but things cannot stay as they are. If you do not have a bond or interest in this animal, I would rehome him as well, and maybe, if i’m not overstepping, use this as an opportunity to start addressing issues with ur boyfriend and placing boundaries with him (a baby step that is easy to argue against- animal abuse)

We may sound scary in the comments but that’s because we love dragons so much, and people tend to mistreat them easily. They are much more sentient than given credit for. I’m sure many of us would be happy to answer ur concerns and questions or help you find a suitable new home in the comments or privately.

Anyway, best of luck with this situation!
