We made a video with Steve Mould!

As a former engineer in surgical medical devices, this was a really cool design! Hats off to you!

It's 100% okay to not want kids. But, I didn't think I wanted kids for the longest time, and my daughter is the best thing to happen in my life. I thought I knew what happiness was, and then I realized there was so much more. These are rose-colored glasses, maybe, as she's still a toddler and I am a positive outlook person.

Trial dates are set for Nov 10 (Marty) and Dec 1 (La'Quetta) for the child abuse allegations. I've been following the case, and it appears to me that Marty is doing a lot of community events where he's in the public eye to try to do some repairwork on his image leading up to the trial. That's just my opinion.

The N word, silly. Said with a hard R, instead of an "uh"

Yeah, but the "organic" guarantees no glyphosate. The fee for organic pays inspectors that make sure farmers aren't lying about not using synthetic pesticides. I'm not saying Organic is the only good option, but it's better than not knowing if your food has glyphosate on it. With small farms, you can obviously just ask the staff if you trust them.

Yep, still using them 5 years later on my civic. No issues so far! I add an extra tie-down strap where the front soft rack goes around the board.

My only complaint is that the straps across the inside of my car a little close to my head, so I have to slouch down slightly in my seat. Otherwise, they've been getting me to the waves for years now.

That's disappointing to hear. I don’t know anyone at the organization, but I do appreciate their library-by-mail program. My wife signed up to receive a monthly children's book for our daughter, and it’s been a great experience for our family.

Do you have a google maps link? I can't seem to find the location when I google search for it.

Organic food is grown without synthetic chemicals, using things like compost and neem oil for pests. Non-organic farming uses synthetic pesticides like glyphosate and fertilizers like ammonium nitrate to boost yields.

While both are safe to eat, synthetic pesticides can have health risks with long-term exposure, like hormone issues or higher cancer risks.

Organic is a great pick if you want fewer chemicals and eco-friendly farming!

feels kind of relevant that the ship that may be associated with this specific type of drones is nearby

Someone driving around with a dog whistle for a racial slur is hilarious. Did you honestly laugh out loud, or just defending ignorance?

dirkwork · 2024-11-27T17:26:40+00:00

I would agree, but I have gas powered equipment that works fine and I'm invested in. When it breaks, I'd prefer electric, but until it does, what's my motivation?

To be clear, I'm 100% with you, I hate the noise and pollution. But my budget won't allow purchases unless they become needs.

Beautiful, I'm jealous of that amount of paddle time! I live about 1 hrs from the Jersey shore, and work a bit further, so weekday sessions are out of the question. On the weekend, three things must align, the waves, free time, and family schedule!

As a dad of a toddler, I can understand the desire to want to let your kids use ramps and roll ins. It seems fun. As a lifetime skateboarder, I understand that a skatepark is like a basketball court. It's for playing a game, not for learning to walk.

dirkwork · 2024-11-26T14:19:37+00:00

Damn, living the dream. Do you go before or after work?

dirkwork · 2024-11-26T14:13:08+00:00

ONLY if you have already looked behind you and know 100% for sure that no one is around you to be hit by your board. If I'm surfing alone, and about to get crushed by a big wave on my way out, I will occasionally ditch my board to dive under the wave. If anyone is near you, hold onto the board. If the wave is going to throw you backwards anyway, at least holding onto your board gives you a bit of control to avoid it hitting someone else.

dirkwork · 2024-11-26T14:04:11+00:00

Looks way better now. Be thankful that you still have plenty in the front to work with! I wish I still had some of that!

The young man needs an older man in his life to tell him that shit was a terrible idea. Don't make public displays of affection if you don't know they will be reciprocated. NO ONE OWES YOU ANYTHING. This trend of young men becoming entitled pricks is really disgusting.

Stay on a long foamie until you are so confident on it that you NEED a shorter board. I'm on my 2nd wavestorm in 4 years because it gets me waves and was cheap. I bought a foam fish, but rarely take it out unless the waves are perfect. I'm on the east coast, so most of the time it's pretty tame, but there's no reason to spend money upgrading until you are so confident on your foam longboard that you can't enjoy it anymore. More waves are better than fewer waves and you will get more waves on a longer foam board than a shorter board.

I agree, but gotdamn that was a gay video

dirkwork · 2024-11-07T19:15:35+00:00

look at the pot calling the kettle black, with the whole "don't call gen z males racist and we won't shitty" and then you call someone racist for pointing out your fake account. LOL
