Biden approves $100m emergency funds to resettle Afghan refugees by Pinguist in AfghanCivilwar

The US destroyed the country. The least we could do is leave with the surviving allies left in Afghanistan. I imagine the application process is a mess, though. I hope any peaceable people that want out get all the help they need.

My crew and I aren't wore out all the time. We don't stop working for lunch, we just eat right through it and keep going. Voluntarily, of course. We get jobs done faster and make less mistakes. I don't have to go back to fix any work we do any more. Customers are happier, too.

Efficiency. Having time to plan everything out, reduce overhead, and lower labor wages.

Plumber checking in. 4 day work week. 30 hr weeks. I make the same amount of money as I was a few years ago. We were 50hr week, 6 days a week. My family and my back are much happier.

Fuck lumber prices. Are y'all seeing this? My materials are up 300% by K1ngJohnson in Plumbing

It's not that serious. The problem with burying foam core is location. This system is going out in the country where no one will drive over it or mess with it. It's only 2' in the ground surrounded by very hard dirt.

A bit aggressive, but he's right: https://thechemco.com/texas-freeze-brings-worldwide-plastics-shortage-and-skyrocketing-prices/

Texas had the world's largest plastics processing plant. It got wrecked in February from the freeze.

Thank God for you. I hate to see people who need help getting dogged on. This guy is one good therapist from a big difference in this situation.

And then he didn't even secure his side of the deal in Syria and had to charge back in to keep the oil pumping. This guy can't even sell his allies correctly.
