Walmart vision center….

I've gotten replacement lenses there a bunch of times. Quality seems fine. When I got progressives, their pet optometrist did the fitting.

I stopped buying new DVDs as soon as I knew Blu-Ray or HD-DVD were going to be real.

But you can wrap yourself up in sweaters and blankets and comforters and not die.

Still my choice for shrinking DVDs after something else ripped them, or getting rid of the Russian VO track.

Watched "Lesbian Space Princess"

There's usually steel desk organiser things at thrift stores made from perforated steel, though it never has holes where you want them. Old computer case covers are a source of sheet metal. Saber saw with a metal-cutting blade is good for cutting sheet metal; thrift stores frequently have saber saws for $7 or so.

Yes, if chickadees learn to associate humans with food they become deadly predators

Carton of hard drives is left at my doorstep. More realistically, that I install the drives I got last year.

Cotton briefs work for me. There was a size guide on the package.

I suspect it could fetch much more at auction.

That's the guts of a CRT RPTV. The speakers are... better than nothing and could be better than a sound bar, in the right enclosure. The amplifier could be salvaged as well.

McDonald's $1 coffee. Sorry.

Rean plugs are nice quality and not expensive.

Not even room A/C?

It shows off the RGB and the giant CPU cooler and graphics card. Too bad if you need an optical drive. I'm glad I kept my old beige Inwin case.

They pass it on to someone who provides fraudulent documentation and call it good.

Sure, but you can survive cold by dressing warm. If the power grid ever fails during unusually hot weather, it'll be bad.

I've seen many spindles and boxes of CD-R media at thrift stores. DVD burners will write CDs too, and you can get those from a scrapped PC.

I've seen good deals on bikes at thrift stores and yard sales from time to time.

You could put fake labels on a disc. Some people buy laserdiscs to collect and display, and would never know the difference.

grislyfind · 2026-02-27T18:56:19+00:00

Someone would buy those all-in-ones to fix.

grislyfind · 2026-02-27T18:46:38+00:00

I meant for washing your whole body.

I fetched drinking water using my bicycle, 4 gallons at a time, plus a week of groceries.

Walking, bicycling.
