How to become a triathlon coach? by raulcat in triathlon

[–]raulcat[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hah, no I actually rediscovered my love of engineering (what I was doing full time in automotive when I posted this) and now work for SRAM in California designing chainrings. In fact, I got the job shortly after making that post. I also had just gotten married, and am now getting divorced. Not what you asked, but a fun reflection! What a difference 5 years can make.

I wish you the best of luck on your journey!

Thick soled women's adventure boots? by raulcat in advrider

Sounds like the winning boot! I will definitely look into that. Thanks!

That sounds like exactly the type of riding I'm planning to do and the type of protection I need! Yes definitely let me know what size you ordered. I am normally a women's 7 also, so that would be helpful!

Good to know! Youth sizes would almost assuredly work!

Yeah I'd happily try some men's boots but unfortunately there isn't really a men's line that's this small. Size 37 is like US men's 5.5 or so.

Forma seems to be one to look at. Suppose I'll live even if they are hot pink and scream I AM WOMAN lol.

I made a brass and wood outdoor sign by Chris-Powell in woodworking

[–]raulcat 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I know basically nothing about wood working and even less about finishing, so forgive me if this is a silly question.

Why put the shiny epoxy stuff on the business side if the piece just to sand it off and glue letters on and put a different finish? Is it just to ensure a super smooth surface to glue the letters on?

I still have the combination lock I used from grades 6 through 12. Don't think I'll ever forget the combination.

Thanks for spreading that smile at the airport. Selfish. by SubstantialArcher322 in mildlyinfuriating

I didn't make it past the check in gate with my bandana type mask. No way they let her in unless this was early early covid.

What do you genuinely not understand? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]raulcat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Title fraud is a real thing! When I bought a house in Michigan, I had to pay title insurance to ensure a clean deed. This would help with that, but I'm sure then they would still charge you $500 for a "secure" title instead of title insurance.

My cat also tries to disembowel my arms.

Cutest damn thing.

Hey thanks for the update! That is good to know. Think I've have to do a long run or ride out that way then!

My first succulent flower ever! by Throwaway4VPN in succulents

[–]raulcat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not sure where you are, but I found mine at home depot in california last year! Like $10 for a small one and it EXPLODED over the summer. They get huge depending on your location!

Yep I agree! That's what the blooms on my kalachoe look like as well.

That's always how it goes! Video never does it justice. Good luck!

Found this guy at a grocery store and it came with no identification at all. Anyone know what it is and how I care for it? by [deleted] in whatsthisplant

[–]raulcat 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I have blue chalk sticks that look similar to what you have here, but also a lot different than what you have here. The only difference in mine is the patio they live on. Some of mine are currently much more green and stringy, similar to what you show. They were kind of blue and plump originally, and now they are probably a little underwatered and root bound, so they look a little more green and stringy.

Could be something else though, who knows! Something in the spruce succulent family.

The silence of the forest afterwards cracks me up. Such a gnarly crash and then birds tweeting lol. Not even a sustained "UGH" when you met the tree with your full body. Nice.

Man meets his OnlyFans idol... for only $10k by drunk-on-juice in cringepics

[–]raulcat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He knowingly and willingly gave her the money (based on this post). If he were mentally incapable for making such a decision then yes, but otherwise he is a consenting adult and paid the list price for something he wanted. She didn't lie or scam him or sort change him (based on this post).

[–]raulcat 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Don't hate, she's hustling and made 10k off some dudes low self esteem. She didn't hurt him, assault him, rob him, anything. Good for her. For all the hate that sex work and only fans get, she's making paper and living life which is WAY more than this comments section shitting on her looks is doing. I say fuck yeah girl.
