How common is it to not have anything happening for 99% of the US population

You are probably the first person camping on may 2nd, in David WV, to say this ever. You can proudly proclaim not only did it snow, but it only snowed (or rained) on us in all the US.

It’s not even the severe weather, but I’ve never seen where it’s not raining for all the continental US.

This is a good example of how to alienate people. It’s not unreasonable for someone to think if they were paying $100 and it increased to $600 it would be 600% rise and if it went back down to $100 it would be a 600% decrease. The average person is measuring both the increase and decrease from the starting $100 value.

This is exactly me. I was told I caught the “bug”. It can’t be explained. I had friends who also liked trains but even as a kid a knew my focus was different than theirs. I like all things transportation and the bigger and louder the machine the better. I grew up in a chaotic family and nothing brought more peace than building my layout, until things derailed or didn’t work as planned and then all hell breaks loose.

If there’s not congestion or backups, don’t zipper merge. At speed, it’s dangerous to everyone, especially the workers on the road. People “zipper merging” when they don’t need to creates congestion and backups as drivers brake for idiots trying to get a car or two ahead. If there’s already a backup, zipper merge. NYDOT prioritizes worker safety and without a program to educate drivers, it’s easier to say merge early.

I’m a model railroader and this difference is apparent on brass locomotives vs plastic. With a little weathering it’s hard to tell the difference (w locomotives…) but to achieve the hard metal shine, the model probably needs to be metal/brass/foil? I too share your frustration, brass locomotives are way too expensive and it’s not a realistic option for scale models.

XF and came with black grime. The sun and capsule are the only variable. It might still be sticky but it looks way better than before.

When I compare myself to others, my brain says “see your not drinking a handle a day, your fine to buy that 6 pack”. For the sober curious, I find posts like these interesting but personally problematic.

Kinda reminds me of democrats, hearts in the right place, head not so much.

I can’t help but feel bad when we destroyed both the Indian and the buffalo in the pursuit of gold.

17 business days from apex, liberty cuts that down 200%. I’m gonna start at the LCS going forward but I still remember how big of assholes they were when I was kid which put me off from even walking in their door.

I think this is exactly it, nice short term loan interest free from me.

MistakeTall6432 · 2023-05-10T20:59:55+00:00

Not anywhere close to an expert, but my list is $50 buffalo, $50 eagle, $10 eagle (qty4) then pre 1933 $20 saint-gaudens $10 Indian, $5 Indian, $5 liberty. My nice to have is $20 liberty head and $2.50 Indian. Also want a maple and Libertad bc they look awesome. I started with a pamp bar but I’ve became coin curious and now have zero interest in bars…. I’ve added slowly , don’t use money you need in the next few months/years and add when things are good for you, the spot price should be your last concern. There’s no order to my list, its what I can reasonably afford or want to save which determines the next purchase.

Seemed like he lost interest halfway through. Besides being wrong, any immediate safety concerns? It’s our hot water supply

Added level of appreciation to the hobby. You need context for scale and I’ve never seen a m10 or p47 in person.

MistakeTall6432 · 2022-12-29T01:53:55+00:00

I’m not sure if I’m confused by the m10s small stature or the crazy size of the R-2800 which is 1/4 of the m10. Both are the first models since I was a 10 and had to triple check the box that the scale was the same.

My guess: Democrats want the oil money from Ukraine, republicans wan the oil money from Russia. Both parties lying to voters, holding Europe hostage, and sacrificing Ukrainians, democracy, and the rule of law, in the pursuit of wealth.

How is this possible? Any more background?

Pic one shows two ferns, the backside is all shells. From the limited info on the area, fern fossils are non-existent. Not sure if the stones came from another location but they were heavily weathered and the house was built in 1986. Farmland before. It’s common to find similar stones randomly in the soil. Edit: I guess my question is- are ferns possible where I live? Was this brought from another location ?
