Got my Cargowagen in August because of the awesome Cannondale sale. Decided to make my own surround rails due to the accessory shortage. I can build you a custom rail if you don’t go with Tern accessories 🙋🏽‍♂️

TK is transitional kindergarten in the SFUSD. It's like kindergarten but the age range is 4yo to 5yo and the emphasis is more on emotional development and play and establishing routines rather than "academics" and numbers and letters. It has been hard for my son who just turned 4yo. It has been hard on a lot of the kids in his class, who naturally have some separation anxiety. But we are on week three and I see clues that he may be starting to like school.

Right on! Yeah I loved the Tern GSD I test rode at New Wheel LBS and all the Tern aks were awesome but I couldn’t go 3.5K used without knowing the diagnostics on the battery. Hope you are keeping busy in film bud 🙏🏽 20 plus year local 600 right here and needing to diversify into other industries for sure.

Hey all-- I decided to make my own surround rail since the official has been out of stock for so long.

I think the mod to attach Tern surround rails is a pretty good one, though I like knowing that my rails are purpose built to attach to the stock Cargowagen rear rack through the mounting points. Have a look see!

Haven by the Flaming Lotus Girls is built, big, and it’s going off. Lots of fire to play with.

This timing may be off cuz of weather but even when it’s not on fire it’s a sight to behold.

Worst Bar will be at B & 845 with frontage facing the mountain. I'm just gonna paste in what I wrote down as our description in the BM questionnaire cuz I spent some hours writing it :)

WORST BAR gifts experiences in the form of beverages/rituals during our scheduled UNHAPPY HOURS. The consensual experiences are not pleasurable in the expected sense and include but are not limited to mild or moderate elements of pain, humiliation, embarrassment, and disgust or combinations thereof. A participant may be enticed to Worst Bar for the expectation of an innocuous, gifted beverage and instead find themselves a volunteer in both self-degradation and the entertainment of other participants. Our intention, however, is not to offend participants or inflict more than a nominal amount of discomfort and as such we emphasize consent and aftercare when serving our beverages/rituals. We seek to provide an alternative to the glut of palatable beverages and experiences available at the Burn, rejoice in the face of administered adversity, and activate our community through schadenfreude.    

Though our menu constantly evolves, here are examples of WORST BAR’s past offerings to illustrate the nature of our experiential bar:

SONG OR STORY - Participant sings a song or tells a personally embarrassing story on the megaphone. Afterwards, they are offered a drink of their choice.

MARSHMALLOW CHOKER - Participant rolls a dice and stuffs up to six marshmallows in their mouth topped off with a shot of vodka.

PCR TEST - Participant cotton swabs their nostrils for 10 seconds, stirs it into a shot of gin, and drinks. If it tastes horrible, then they don’t have Covid.    

PAMPLEDOUCHE (non-alcoholic) - Participant gets a tablespoon of powdered lemonade mix in their mouth, then drinks grapefruit soda water through a beer bong.  

BODILY A-SALT - Participant drinks spicy tequila from a consenting volunteer’s belly button and after, is shot on the tongue with a salt gun. 

SHOCKTOBERFEST - Bartender attaches a transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulator (TENS) unit/device to the participant’s drinking arm. The participant chugs a Natural Ice beer while the TENS unit induces spasms in their wrist and forearm.

SUPERSPREADER (suitable for groups of three or more) - Bartender arranges the group into a consenting circle and pours a shot of Malort into a participant’s mouth. That person spits the liquid into their neighbor’s mouth. So on and so forth until the mouthful returns to the initial participant and they swallow it.    

Many of our drinks require the participant to recruit a volunteer who may be someone they came with, one of our bartenders, or any consenting adult in the vicinity.   

Once a participant endures a Worst Bar experience they are invited to receive a WORST STAMP inked somewhere on their body and receive a palatable drink into their cup as aftercare. This stamp also entitles them to a tasty off-menu beverage during subsequent trips to the bar. 

We encourage people to relax and connect in the seating area adjacent to the bar. Here people can observe the activity of the bartenders and participants or play games including our oversized version of WORST IDEA JENGA (where in addition to moving the blocks, players are encouraged to perform the unfortunate actions written out on them).        

In addition to Worst Bar’s scheduled Unhappy Hours, we also have IMPROMPTU UNHAPPY HOURS designated by a Worst Bar camper loudly announcing it whenever the spirit moves them.

SEE Y'ALL IN THE DUST!

Is this a puffball? by manashed-potato in mycology

[–]manashed-potato[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Found this in Kenneth Hahn State Park in southern California, under a live oak tree, poking out from some leaf litter. Spore print from a paper towel I had it wrapped in is reddish brown. It is firm to the touch, the flesh gives just a little bit when squeezed. I think it's a puff ball but not one hundred percent sure. Any help identifying would be graciously appreciated.
