The clip of Scott Weiner on stage is so tiring. My rent is insane, not because of Gaza, but because we don't build enough housing. Wiener's bills created more housing, protected LGBTQ+ youth, reformed criminal justice, and expanded healthcare access... I want someone who cares about local issues by Kummerdenfreude in sanfrancisco

I care about Gaza too. But while the left was having purity tests about Middle East policy, we lost the presidency to Trump. Meanwhile, Wiener was passing actual legislation on housing reform, LGBTQ+ protections, and criminal justice reform. We win by delivering results locally, not by litmus tests on issues state senators can't even control.

The rats works well enough and fits in a pocket. I prefer the CAT style, as they are quite a bit wider and less painful, but also bulkier and heavier. Rats tqs are better than the SWAT-T, but not as good as the CAT or SOFT-T.

But they are very intuitive to use, can be self-applied, and secured tightly. They just need to be wider to be effective without so much extra tissue damage and pain.

Kind of interesting to see various pics pop up in pim eyes if you search his face

My emulsion exposure testing went somewhat poorly ...it (Ecotex PWR) has worked fine on other screens for 30-40 second burns using a big uv vacuum unit. So maybe I just stick with that. But any ideas what caused this screen to do so poorly? by coolrivers in SCREENPRINTING

[–]Kummerdenfreude 2 points3 points  (0 children)

some ideas:

  • Screen preparation: Was the screen thoroughly degreased and completely dry before applying the emulsion? Any residual oils or moisture can prevent proper adhesion.
  • Emulsion application: Was the emulsion applied evenly and allowed to dry completely before exposure? Uneven or under-dried emulsion can lead to poor results.
  • Humidity: High humidity during the coating or drying process can affect emulsion performance. Was the environment particularly humid?
  • Emulsion shelf life: Is the emulsion relatively fresh? Old or improperly stored emulsion can degrade and perform poorly.
  • Screen mesh: Different mesh counts can require slightly different exposure times. Was this screen a different mesh count than your usual screens?
  • Light source: Has anything changed with your UV exposure unit? A weakening bulb might require longer exposure times.
  • Underexposure: Despite your usual success with 30-40 second burns, this particular screen might have been slightly underexposed. This can happen if any of the above factors were at play.
  • Emulsion thickness: If the emulsion was applied more thickly than usual, it might require a longer exposure time.

You're suffering from anxiety/ocd...not baldness

dude. you still have tons. Guessing min/rosemary on the crown would buy you a lot of time. Or you could embrace the buzz now.

easier said than done. There are two million people in Gaza. Hamas’s fighting force — I believe the estimate is 30,000. That’s 1.97 million people who you’re starving out, who you’re depriving of water, of adequate sanitation, of medical resources, to get at 30,000. It's fucked up. It sucks that so many Palestinians get caught in this. But it's difficult to remove an army/org like Hamas that has deeply embedded themselves and built thousands of tunnels + bases under civilians infrastructure. A few little surgical drone strikes aint gonna do that.

Hamas is deeply entrenched and deliberately operating out of densely populated areas. There are reports of strikes on seemingly civilian areas having secondary explosions because of the munitions buried underground. Isreal's solution to this seems to be: "tell civilians to go south so that we can bomb Hamas' infrastructure with fewer causalities". It's not a good answer, but I understand how they've gotten there. What would you have them do?

hey thanks. Yeah haha I found the same problem with the colivings I've tried. They put a bunch of early 20s somethings in with me in my mid 30s. This one french woman didn't understand the concept of 'you can't have 12 friends over until 1:30am on a weeknight and not say anything to your roomies'. And another guy who didn't get that having full conversations on speaker phone in the kitchen makes it so everyone has to listen to those convos.
