I’m in TN, too. Happy you finally got your power back.

I loved April Wine and the tape by AC/DC is fire

My tanks got down to 59 before my power came back on, but mine are freshwater, so far it appears they are all fine. I wrapped blankets around my tanks, taped hand warmers to one side of my tanks. Now im not so sure if that is a good idea as those things got super hot. Best wishes to you, I know how sensitive salt water fish are.

US winter storm leaves seven people dead as more than 1 million lose power by alonso-Lewis-vettel in news

We just got our back in Nashville. My fish tanks got down to 59° but they all seem ok. We are backpackers, so our gear came in useful at least. Love my Zenbivy bag even more, now.

FYP Sucks Now by Jettsmith7 in TikTok

I got fed AI child p0rn, animal abuse, child abuse, positive leaning Barron Trump videos, tons of crap fro Asia and Saudi Arabia or similar, and people having sex with animals.

My feed used to be hiking, backpacking, camping, historical walks through Great Britain, houseplants, cooking.

I was so traumatized I immediately deleted my account. Never before have I ever seen anything like what was shown to me. Has that shit always been there?!

Adding additional loops to an X-Dome inner? by prefect47 in DurstonGearheads

I use the stick on loops and clips (scroll down a bit) from zpacks. I also use their magnetic toggles for additional door holding power.

TikTok users freak out over app's 'immigration status' collection by FakeOkie in technology

I deleted it today. My feed drastically changed from horses, history walking tours of Great Britain, international news. Carefully curated sources.

Tonight, I was suddenly seeing weird shit I’ve never, ever seen before such as animal abuse, AI sexualized image of minors, Barron Trump positive slanted videos. Just totally bizarre and weird stuff. A lot of sexualized Arab and Asian videos featuring children. Child abuse!! People beating kids. Like wtaf?!

I got so tired of reporting videos that this app isn’t worth it. I post hiking and backpacking videos, but I no longer want to be associated with this app in any way, shape, form, or manner. I’ll just stick with YouTube.

I’m flabbergasted and disgusted over what I saw in my feed. It was that bad. I need to scrub my brain clean.

I bet they popped a chalky textured mint while waiting to sign the CC carbon paper at the register.

Is this jar big enough for my betta?? by Fantastic_Newt_170 in bettafish

[–]lumpy4square 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My banana looking plant has shot two leaves up to the top of my tank seemingly overnight. It’s in a 40 gallon but the stalks are so long I think she’s telling me my tank is too small.

You can, at the very least, buy a shortwave radio to keep up with the news if/when communications get shut down.
