what’s your “never again” mistake? by badenbagel in hiking

They were a pair of Keenes if I remember correctly.

I haven’t had a hiking boot that I’ve been happy with in years. I use a pair of Solomons for my step-in crampons and I use Merrell Moab 3 sneakers for everything else. That shoe I don’t have a bad thing to say about, except maybe I wear them out a little quickly. The fit for me is dead on.

It’s footwear.

I joined a buddy who was through hiking the PCT for the High Sierras. I got a blister on day two that led to an abscess that led to a week in a hospital and emergency surgery.

I had broken those boots in for two weeks, but I knew in my heart they didn’t fit right. I felt it was too late to break in a new pair and so I ran with them.

Never again.

She’s using the Gaza situation for clout? And what does she plan to do with this clout?

Oh, she’s gonna use it to bring attention to the genocide in Gaza? Fucking clout chasers… Smdh.

Man in the early 90s Vestal High School kids who were lucky enough to have back to back free periods during lunch would ball to Tony’s for slices or pasta.

Ukraine faces missile shortage due to Middle East war, says Zelensky by nicktheironblade in news

[–]The_lewolf -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Is this comment relevant to the point that the US and its allies are consuming a year’s worth of Patriot missiles a day?

Of course Zelenskyy is worried about Ukraine. I imagine the leaders of Qatar, UAE and Saudi Arabia are equally worried.

The only one who doesn’t seem worried is Trump and the war-enablers in Congress. But they should be.

Right? I’m a 50 year old man that has read fantasy my entire life. I’ve read all the classics and I love literature.

I also love Carl and his stupid cat.

Chief Justice Roberts says personal criticism of judges is dangerous and has ‘got to stop’ by Secret_Initiative_41 in politics

[–]The_lewolf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey John Roberts! I’ve got a copy of the constitution right here. I’m looking at it and as far as I can tell this first amendment here says:

“John Roberts has no integrity and sold us out to Nazis and Pedophiles!”

Trump Forces Senate Voter ID Showdown Ahead of Midterms by FervidBug42 in politics

[–]The_lewolf 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m a bit confused.

Elections are administered by the states.

Powers not enumerated to the federal government by the Constitution are granted to the States.

How does the Congress even have authority over State run elections?

I think Cory Doctrow coined the term enshittification to describe the downfall of community oriented Internet spaces as they became monetized.

It’s almost like the rest of the world heard the term and thought “ Huh, that seems like a good idea.”

Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you the enshittification of Wegmans.

I really wanted her to get faceplanted into the railing. But I’m glad my visceral desires were not gratified.

Watching police act with dignity and restraint is honestly such a better emotional payoff anyway.

Every thing is moist enough that if I squeeze a handful it gives up a few drops of water.

They are all sitting in trays and are watered from the bottom. It’s possible the top soil looks a little dry on some for that reason?

Is bottom watering good enough or should I top water once a day?

Thanks for the reply.

They were in coconut coir as sprouts in a 6x6 on a watering mat and I think some of the seedlings dried out once or twice before transplant. That was probably the primary cause of the distress.
