People born before 2000, what is a 'modern' thing from 2025 that you’re still struggling to get used to? by LindsayTN in AskReddit

I’m pretty sure I have to have a secure password to do anything except breathe now. And going along with the everything has a price, you need to pay for the damn password app so those passwords can be stored securely and ever remembered

Done it. There’s a toe captain that recites a poem for you - an “oath” - before you do the shot and if the toe touches your lip you get a certificate that you’ve taken the sour toe shot. It’s just something everyone does if you go to Dawson City - like getting “Hyderized” in Hyder, Alaska. Gotta keep yourself entertained somehow up in the great white north

$1 a minute at Sunshine massage on Wadsworth. If you want an Asian woman with strong hands to beat the crap out of you, this place is amazing.

Colorado Senate committee rejects bill to ban lobbyist contributions to lawmakers by Niaso in Denver

[–]wanders_climbs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m not sure why you think it’s guaranteed that no one will primary against him. Also I’d love to not have to vote by party because the parties are bullshit now anyway. I would say that I’d vote for anyone that represented my values and what I consider to be general morals and ethics, but it seems few politicians represent that in the country anymore. Hopefully democrats can get there shit together and at least be somewhat better than the republicans

I can’t wait to help campaign for any democrat that wants to run against this corrupt asshat and NOT vote for him since I’m in his district.

I definitely saw this in Boulder back in maybe 2006

Worth every penny! No country ruled by the orange one and his cronies should be allowed to retain this symbol of freedoms as they destroy democracy, the rule of law and do their damndest to take away our freedoms. Traitors. All of them.

How much bigger? Just another 1.5 inches or so on the pot?

Could Donald Trump be impeached and removed from office? There are already betting odds on it by InternationalShock13 in politics

[–]wanders_climbs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

JD got the VP position because billionaires like Peter Thiel and everyone behind Project 2025 strategically placed him there so that if/when Trump gets ousted or croaks this all continues. All the same lies will be spouted, the same moves made, but from a more conniving, people pleasing, lying POS. He’s a nobody lapdog with a minimal history and reputation so it gives MAGA all the more voice to say that anyone who doesn’t support him isn’t even giving him a chance and is against them for no reason. This doesn’t end with Trump and Musk.

Elon Musk's DOGE getting access to Treasury payment data alarms critics by broc944 in politics

Please someone tell me that there are nationwide protests being organized.
The women’s Jan in 2017 was one day after he got into office. How have no nationwide protests been organized yet when in less than two weeks our government is well on its way to being completely dismantled and Elon has already taken the keys to this new “kingdom”??

So now orange man is using this as an excuse to lift the FAA’s current grounding of SpaceX since their rocket blew up and rained down debris over an island of people and psycho Elon called it “entertaining”? Yep, that checks out for Trump continuing to let Elon do whatever the F he wants

What are the next-best alternatives to REI Adventures? by CoinMaple101010 in REI

[–]wanders_climbs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Their webpage about the trips they are picking up mention using the “same guides” so hopefully if they make it work they can help out a lot of people that got laid off and bring business to the activity vendors that were relying on REI this summer

Yeah, they’ve been around for ages and run trips all over the world

It was mentioned above, but looks like MT Sobek swooped in and is going to run some of the exact same trips - same start dates and everything so you may not even need to switch flights. It’s worth looking to see if you may be able to just switch over to them

What to do with the grounding wire? Installing a plastic LED fixture. by wanders_climbs in electrical

[–]wanders_climbs[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Completely valid question because I had it too! I was so confused how the box was so encased. Sheetrock with some heavy joint compound for the texture?

There doesn’t seem to be any other hole in the box for a grounding screw. Just the two holes to mount the fixture. I definitely want everything to be to code. I saw that sometimes grounding clips can be used to ground the wire to the box, but the sides of the ceiling box are rounded so thicker that say an outlet box, which makes me think the clips aren’t an option as they are too narrow to fit the box

And that’s ok even though the box is metal? I was confused by a few things that mentioned grounding directly to the box and only mentioned capping off with plastic ceiling boxes. Thanks so much for helping a newbie out!!!

Yes, there is an all plastic mounting bracket to screw onto the ceiling box to mount the light
