Actually the die mart was my very closest convenience store. Nice guy from Nepal was always behind the counter. Homeless guy would sleep behind the trash cans on the side. Once, he overdosed at the bus stop across the street. Although, the signs lights were out before this happened, maybe there’s more to the name than we realize…

There used to be this person i would see all over town. By town, I mean large city. I would see them in parks and even in friends apt complex parking lots. The last time, my friends saw them too, so i know i wasnt just crazy. They would be dressed, head to toe, like a white, or maybe light blue, bird. They would wear a one piece leotard, that covered thier hair / head and feet, and had feathered wings and maybe shoulders and head? Distinctly a bird, though. They would be like meditating, with thier arms outstretched up toward the sky, perfectly still. It started freaking me out cause I’d see them so much, just standing there, like a statue. Did I have a stalker? Was a bird person cult? Was it an art project? I had all these questions. I felt mildly harassed by this.
I can post the link to the book

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Under Trump will anything happen to my brothers Social Security Disability? He is 42 and draws it for mental illness.English
7·2 年前If Trump somehow can eliminate taxes on social security, the fund will have to reduce benefits sooner than projected. The cut will only benefit 40% of recipients that pay taxes, and that lack of extra funds comming into the system will bring it closer to insolvency, sooner rather than later. So unless your brother is one the 40% that will immediately benefit from the tax cut, he’ll get to look forward to lower payments sometime in the nearer future.

politics @lemmy.world•Exclusive: Trump plans no exemption for oil imports under new tariff plan, sources sayEnglish
31·2 年前OK. I know this sounds ridiculous, but…what if this is all a secret agenda to prepare us for climate change? Make it too expensive to use gas or drive or buy stuff or buy food.
They slowly ween us off of our dependence on…everything, while making us think it was our idea. (Cause climate change doesn’t exist) We would have to go back to living with nothing, poor, and growing our own food. Everyone that can’t keep up is given a free meal and work…in jail.
I know, I know. I was just pretending there was a bit of some sort of humanity in this train wreck.

11·2 年前They think this guys plan is happening. If you dig deeper into his ideology, you’ll see part of the plan is a bunch of city-states run by corporations.
Nadella just wants a city-state all to himself.
Edit: Theres even a couple behind the bastards episodes on this guy. The VP is a follower of this idealogy. I’m honestly confused as to why hardly anyone is talking about this yet.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•if you workout and run, would you recommend a merino wool base or mid layer for autumn/winter? or am I going to break it?English
5·2 年前As the hikers say. Cotton kills…it retains water (sweat / rain / snow) and ends up being less insulating, making you susceptible to hypothermia and making the layer heavier. Typically the base layer is there to wick water away from your skin, and the mid layer is there to keep you warm. Any temp under 40f, is considered a no go, with cotton, if your hiking.
Looking at clothing recommendations, here, and here for runners, it seems if it’s under 30f, they tend to stay away from cotton. Note: Obviously these people are also selling expensive clothing, whats important is the fabric type, not the brand name. Even if your not at risk of hypothermia, the cold constricts your muscles, making them tighter, which apparently is not great for running.
To answer your question, as long as it’s not Kari Tra brand wools, (esp the thin ones, get holes, practically immediately, for no reason. The mid weights are better, but not by much) imo, as a hiker not a runner, i would say they should hold up for at least a season, with proper care. Especially, if your wearing something more slippery like polyester over them. Wool definitely breaks apart due to friction. Even wools Ive gotten to wear under work clothes, only last a couple years max, before they start to wear in some choice areas. If you value your wools though, I would find some polyester / synthetic base / mid layers, especially if you are running on a regular basis.
Tldr: if your running in freezing temps don’t wear cotton. If you value your wools, get a polyester / synthetic base and mid layer. Also, maybe check out REI brand for some cheaper wool layers.

politics @lemmy.world•Former Kamala Harris aide says Joe Biden should resign so she can serve as 47th presidentEnglish
3·2 年前Maybe they think she’ll try to do all the things Biden won’t do. Things like pack the court or somehow codify Roe v Wade, even if it’s far fetched. Show everyone what they missed out on, even if it gets reversed a month later.
Unless that’s the plan, it would be a complete waste of time.
