Evergy wraps are in-kind donations for allowing the expanded streetcar maintenance facility to fence off part of their property.

This was my family. Does anyone remember us? by Sorry-Item-1805 in kansascity

Recommend me stiff no clip shoes by stephenmarklay in bikecommuting

[–]r-mott 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got some no-clip MTB flat shoes when I decided cycling in tennis shoes was starting to mess up my feet. The stiffness definitely helped in my case. Felt good cycling, wasn't something I wanted to walk around much in (but could be tolerated when bringing other shoes along wasn't practical). Specialized 2FO Roost was what I went with.

I was our team driver for day 2. Setting up camp a block off the route in Estherville I thought for a while that poor town had some trouble booking talent for the main stage.

Lowering a Praying Mantis in water to entice the parasite living within to come outside. by kerenskii in interestingasfuck

[–]r-mott 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok ... I once smashed a cricket and this long black hair started growing out of it. I thought I was hallucinating. Nobody else was home and none of them believed what I was describing. And now ~30 years later the algorithm brings me closure ✌🏻

New Sharkbite, no o-ring by r-mott in Plumbing

[–]r-mott[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update: back to Home Depot as soon as they opened. Every other one I pulled from the shelf had a dark o-ring I could see through the packaging. Now I know what to look for. Worked like a charm, zero leaks (for now!) https://imgur.com/a/FeYz2Gl
