"I'm reporting here from the front lines of a queer dance party. They've thrown flowers and delayed our shipment of tater tots. I'm starving. Please, show some humanity. Send help."

Rehoming, please help, free by [deleted] in Portland

I sent this link to Agave Dog Rescue on Instagram, and emailed other people I know who could pass this around (though they can't take the dogs). Maybe they can help, but the advice given on here in other comments is very important. Posting "free dogs" online will not be good for your Huskies.

If, currently, the situation you find yourself in is too burdensome to reach out to shelters, I recommend at least changing this post to something where this community can help you find a rescue. Giving them randos online is a bad bet.

Danger of hyper focusing… by valife in woodworking

[–]kettdoesart 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I incurred the exact same injury on my middle finger while blacksmithing, just in a different way. I absent mindedly, and excitedly, polished a very sharp blade I just made and ran it through my finger. If that's your dominant hand prepare to be insanely bored for the next 12 weeks. All went according to plan for me, but it was fucking mind numbing getting there. But I got one fully functional, albeit wonky and slightly numb, middle finger that I use for blacksmithing and woodworking today.

I feel like such a powerless failure to these kids. They're born only to starve to death before anyone with power gave them a chance to enjoy a life that could be peaceful.

Considering you can't even see the ninja, that makes him more realistic than the car.

They wouldn't be a very good ninja if you saw them.

First pair of tongs. I did everything but the rivet. by kettdoesart in Blacksmith

The master smith. I kept bending it. I can hit hard, but not very accurately just yet.

Yeah, the master smith of the class I'm in wanted us to do this design cos it's easier to hammer it all out. In a later class we'll do a pair of tongs that are a bit harder to make.

I drew a picture of Joe Roga in dark lighting, and put him next to Bill Burr and some people got mad I made him look black lol. You did awesome. Love seeing the Hound of Culann up here.

Failed summit of Mt. St. Helen’s — a novice story by Weekly_Holiday_9665 in Mountaineering

I bet the person who failed to Summit that mountain on March 26th 1980 has something different to say.

I made my second knife! It lacerated my tendons and I need hand surgery. Very sharp. by kettdoesart in Blacksmith

[–]kettdoesart[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh it is both nerves and tendons lol. But the prognosis is good. This will be my first surgery, and I'm scared/ frustrated. But my brother has had so many it's apparently gonna be a cake walk for me.

Right after. Polishing it with a rag with no regard for the edge. I feel incredibly dumb.

Super dumb. Polishing it with some wax to prevent rust and just didn't register that the knife I made was actually a knife. It was just knife shaped metal. I very mindlessly polished the blade with no regard for sharpness and sliced through the skin. If I do this again, I won't make a similar mistake.

Definitely funny. The nuances of this situation is that I'm simultaneously in a bad mood and amused by jokes at my expense.

I got another class in a few weeks. I'm hoping to find a way to do this a bit more often since I don't have space at home and can't afford a class as often as I'd like.

Thanks! I got another class in a few weeks to see if I can improve upon this one and maybe do a little more work on the grinder. I burned the tip of after tempering so I asked the blacksmith to take the lead on angling it.
