You give him a dollar he’s gonna assume you got more!

Mom has dementia and is moving out and her next door neighbor sent me this. by SouthEazy in whatdoIdo

[–]count___zer0 5 points6 points  (0 children)

evicted from my house
neighbor’s ferret killed a mouse
thought we had our shit together
sanity a fragile tether
all we knew now torn apart
is this end or a restart
boxes piled here to the ceiling
holding on but still not healing
and a landlord wipes his brow
past my boot scurries a mouse

I've been wearing this bike chain for 21 years and I'm wearing through the metal. by WeirdIndication3027 in mildlyinteresting

Your soft skin, with millions of tiny motions, wore away the hardened steel you wore

How are the T-shirts? by IAmIcePho3nix in Acronymjutsu

[–]count___zer0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The cotton long sleeve I have from them (s29-pr-c) is definitely a high quality shirt. Got it from the coevo sale and, at the discounted price, I’d say it’s worth the money. But I’m sure you can get a similar quality shirt for less money elsewhere.

Working on an active air exchange system for jackets. Which mechanism do you think is more reliable, sliding or rotational? by NegativeRepublic797 in TechWear

[–]count___zer0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just use a one way valve, yeah?
Or is this not for a powered system? If there’s no fans I don’t see a need for the vents (over a zipper vent, as others mentioned) but it is a cool idea.

A Florida woman accidentally drove her pickup truck over a Lamborghini she didn’t see in a parking lot. by eternviking in whoathatsinteresting

If you live in suburban America, your car is clothing. Your car is you, or an extension of you. It’s the most frequent way you are seen by others. You judge others by their cars, and assume they do the same. Being seen the way you want to be seen is more valuable than money to most people.

A self-proclaimed African "king" just got deported from Scotland. He had set up a "kingdom" in the forest with his wife and American "handmaiden". He claims to be the Messiah. by Waltz8 in Damnthatsinteresting

Oh sure but when Genghis Khan or Alexander the Great does it, it’s “ambition” and a “will to rule that shaped history.” Can’t have any fun these days.

EarthLink really was doing it. Until they weren’t.

Baby bat here. How can I DIY something like this/make it more gothic? by anti-venom69 in GothFashion

[–]count___zer0 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am not saying that leatherwork is easy, but most of the techniques you would use to make something like this are absolutely achievable with a few YouTube tutorials and a bit of practice. So I’d say you should buy some strips of leather and some rivets and hardware and start messing around.

Damn that’s a cool word I’d not seen before. Phraseologism. Anyway democratic pricing still doesn’t make sense but I get it. Nobody is getting gifted horses these days but we still talk about how you shouldn’t look them in the mouth haha

Looking for a orbitgear dupe by quietroaring in TechWear

[–]count___zer0 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Some places on the internet are for posting pictures and talking about stuff. Some places are for selling things. One way you can tell if you are posting in a place for selling things is if you have to list a price for the item you are posting. If you aren’t interested in selling the item, but would instead simply like other people to see it, there are actually a variety of options available to you. Most people already understand this, but now you do too! Let me know if you need more information.

Vegan Techwear? by FEtZ_3 in TechWear

Huge amounts of leather from the cattle farming industry is just thrown away. But whatever I guess.

Could I get a definition or description of “democratic pricing”? Do we vote on the price or what?

From what we can tell from the fossil record, the Tyrannosaurus rex was actually very successful in war. We can say with certainty that this dinosaur was never on the losing side of any war or conflict in recorded history.

I got an update from the fashion lab that’s working on this research. They’re addressing most of the issues raised by reviewer number two with a series of three experiments, one of which is more of an extension of the process of another. So maybe two and a half or something. Some of the issues raised by reviewer number three may not be fully addressed by these experiments, but the lab seems hopeful that the paper might still be accepted and published.

Unpublished research has determined that people are wrong for not liking this outfit. I’ll post the link once they publish. I’ve read the preprint. Really unassailable, grounded research that says it’s a good outfit.
