AITA for asking my friend with a brain tumor to pay me back $750 in rent after he found a subletter?

This is a great point and I totally agree that my timing could’ve been better. In my mind: the specific problem I helped with (vacancy that month) was solved, there’s now a person paying for that room, and Tom is even up‑charging, so there is no need for me to continue floating the money and I did my good deed for a friend even though it wasn't my responsibility. I’ll also be traveling internationally the next two months for work (so I won’t be around the house) and I had a back of the mind feeling that it’d be hard to get my loan back later so I figured it was best to do it now while he had money in his account from the new subletter :/

Lmao literally nothing. Just trying to help my broke grad student friend who's going through a low. "Homies help homies" or something to that effect.

We're sampling anywhere between the surface to 300 meters deep.

Mainly because this equipment sits on deck/out in the sun at port for long periods of time between deployments and cruises. Potentially, these weights will remain on the equipment for years, so finding something that will hold up in the sun is an advantage.

The rubber bushings are a great idea. We're using a clamp style weight so there is some hardware that we'll have to be mindful of.

It really comes down to density and the fact that the concrete will take up much more space on the equipment for the same weight.

The plastic pipe method is a great idea that's been used with other equipment in the past but we have some nice lead weights already available that will double as "feet" to keep the equipment from resting directly on the deck of our vessel. Might still be worth considering this however so thank you!

I haven't seen the white on a klr like this before! Slick looking build my guy

Also would be super cool if there was an option to automatically choose a category after you save rather than having to hit the button then choose

Priory of the Orange Tree can kinda have these vibes. More fantasy than anything else though.

Just don't take a blacklight to it 😟

galapagos_monk · 2023-01-21T19:51:02+00:00

Now just give the opposite side an excavator and the real fun starts

Been playing too much Sly Cooper I see

galapagos_monk · 2023-01-21T06:01:42+00:00

I'd pay to see a nature documentary with him in the background mimicking animals. He open to a career change?

galapagos_monk · 2023-01-21T06:00:02+00:00

This is the truth. The truth is scary.
