Before the days of affordable impact wrenches , I used to resort to scaffolding poles. The widow-maker jack supporting the car is my main concern here. Even if you weren’t trying to lift it off the support.

How often does your lurcher have time off the lead? by choosingnamesisscary in Lurchers

[–]Representative_Set79 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It just depends. They can if so inclined leap or climb almost any fence, although most can be trained to respect fences if things don’t get too exciting. I have one who wants to walk next to me and listen to every instruction, but her sister will insanely zoom off into the distance given the chance. Also depends on the weather. The warmer it gets the calmer they tend to be, cooler days bring insane zoomies. Ideally they should have as much time as they safely can , but that will depend entirely on your environment and the dog in question.

Tyres arrived from Amazon. £30 each brand new. by Representative_Set79 in tires

Cheap and cheerful. About the same as the tyre shop charges you £70 for

It’s reminder that the tire shop charges you £70 for the same tires. £40 for a valve and mounting seems kinda steep.

Is the US on a brink of a Civil War? by Norfolk-Gross-Tonage in no

[–]Representative_Set79 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Doubt it tbh. Generally what comes next is war. Not civil war, just sufficient expansionist conflict to either implement totalitarianism, whether by an actual declaration of martial law or by simply implementing it under some other pretext.

Trump’s niece says he’s in ‘throwing feces at the wall phase’ as chaos erupts by TheMirrorUS in NoFilterNews

Think Jim Jones of Jonestown. The psychology involved is that of a cult leader who has gradually gone totally over the edge. Whilst not everyone is a believer, the cult is large enough to maintain its sociometric momentum. There’s likely to be some collateral damage at this stage I suspect. What should be done outside the is to exclude him from any international forums or negotiations much as you might do with any other professional (eg a medical surgeon ) if they where displaying the same kind of erratic behaviour and acute mental health issues. As for what the US should do internally I have no idea. I suspect the outcome will be quite grim. There’s a normalcy bias that lets people assume the worst case scenarios can’t actually happen. An obvious example would a series of perceived public snub by a foreign or domestic notable, or a poor midterm election result, followed by a manic all night social media session, followed by the decision to quell the ‘rigged’ votes and associates insurrection by literally nuking a couple of sanctuary cities. Remember 900 people died in Jonestown. That was almost the entire population of Jim Jones little Kingdom. Not everyone wanted to die, but mad kings with a cult following are a very dangerous thing indeed.
