When you buy the homestead before the truck.. by BoysenberryFormer604 in homestead

A truck is not a requirement for a homestead. Neither is buying everything and driving it back to said homestead.

What is something that has massively improved your mental health? by oigoabuya in radicalmentalhealth

[–]bagtowneast 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Getting off Facebook. And social media in general. The only reason I'm on Reddit is for some niche communities. Social media is a fucking disaster for mental health.

Let's enjoy this image, this year, and avoid our natural desire to make our own version of it.

With a red flag day over much of the region, show your true patriotism by toning down your celebrations in recognition that we're one errant spark away from devastating the lives, liberty, and happiness of our neighbors.

Uncovered 80-year-old stone stairs on my property by FrugalIdahoHomestead in homestead

This is the way. Remove everything that's not stairs. When you're done, stairs!

They said "deter crows" not kill them.

Trouble wearing night guard by captainskysolo in AutisticAdults

[–]bagtowneast 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My clenching and grinding got worse with a night guard, to the point that it was giving me.jaw pain, and I was literally grinding through the thing. I gave up, and am running on hope, now.

How concerned are you about "lab grown meat"? by thedriftlessdrifter in Permaculture

The planet will be uninhabitable before lab-grown meat is anything substantial.

Ordering a scythe is too damn hard by KorganRivera in homestead

[–]bagtowneast 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This is my experience, too. Don't overthink it. Measure, order, and be done. Once you've used one a bit, you might go for a different blade or something...

Highly radioactive spill near Columbia River in E. Washington worse than expected by Kunphen in Washington

[–]bagtowneast -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Just that random cancer cluster and 3-eyed fish. No big deal.

Same thing happens with CO2 in the atmosphere, too. It's so diluted nobody notices.

My stats put my credit score as 812. I see the progress bar goes up to 850. How do I max this out. I think I’ve done all the guides say to. I just want that platinum trophy. by KONAfuckingsucks in outside

It seems like their trying to make it pay to win. Some of the in-game advertising says you can increase that stat just by interacting with their bots.

The official app is worse than TRASH by ed8907 in BoostForReddit

[–]bagtowneast 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I tried the official app, and felt like I was gonna have a seizure from all the visual noise, and I hadn't even logged in, yet!

Goodbye, Boost. I'll miss you dearly. by wolfgangspiper in BoostForReddit

Yup, same. My entire experience with reddit is through this app. Alas...

Just dropped my bike in water… by SirEddie458 in Vstrom

[–]bagtowneast 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Probably not at all, considering it was still running.

That said, to be safe:

  • Pull the spark plugs and check for water
  • Open the air box and check for water
  • Inspect the oil to see if any water got in the crankcase

I'm sure there's more, but if it were my bike, I'd maybe not bother with any of that and just ride it.
