I like electric power washers for many tasks because they are not as powerful as gas making it easier to avoid stripping paint or damaging wood. It is too bad you can hardly buy a decent hose now a days, we use red ones in construction that are supple and coil without problem but you can't find a similar product at home depot regardless of price.3 points

I have some coworkers who have been in my ear about getting Paramount+ for Yellowstone but I’m staying away for this reason. happy with my Netflix sub and other people’s logins for Hulu and Disney lol2 points

As far as the vaccine is concerned I got it. But I’m kind of confused myself on why it’s still being pushed so hard when it doesn’t seem to prevent anything other than getting bad symptoms. So if you have a good immune system, what’s the point? But I don’t concern myself too deeply with the subject so I could be ignorant to some parts of the puzzle.2 points

Over the past few weeks I've been tearing down the burned house on our property using excavators and skid steers. Here are pictures from it mostly all cleaned up. We left the deck standing because it is mostly undamaged and are going to turn it into a small cabin/guest lodge. The concrete footings from the house were left in place and will likely be used for the foundation of a storage building. It's about time to start purchasing building materials. My gf and I are going to do as much as we can ourselves since we both have experience in this area but have never actually built an entire house. Design goals include: small footprint on the ground 2-3 stories open top floor/roof w/ easy access like top floor porch w/ covering appliances installed on roof (a/c unit/solar/hydro) lots of "off grid" power generation to supplement city power2 points

I don’t think it’s solely a “personal agenda”, as it is probably considered a win for EV, and big win for Bidens. Same as Saudis staying in Trump hotels and then getting a major arms deal.1 point

If you ever get the chance to visit a Samuel smith pub in the U.K. go for it. Sometimes they can be a bit shit due to the type of clientele cheap booze attracts, but sometimes you can find a good one. It always amazes me how everything is Samuel smith branded from the crisps to the wine to the spirits1 point

Dude with the gun should have been more of a man and not went for his gun because the father of his lady’s kid was a nuisance. He’s a coward.1 point

You cannot off a bunch of people at once quickly because they'll catch on. Slow attrition is the way. I just think it's weird that people will believe (finally) that the ching chong virus is a bioweapon, but refuse to believe that the same people releasing the weapon are in bed with everyone involved w/ the vax. It's a mega easy connection to make that many have realized for themselves. I'm not accusing anyone of ignorance for any reason other than not being exposed to the right information (by design). Fucking psy op'd again.1 point

“I write today from a position rare for a former prosecutor: to beseech you to commute the sentence of a man who I helped put behind bars,” he wrote. “With time, and the benefit of hindsight, I have realized that the prosecution and continued incarceration of Mr. Peltier was and is unjust. We were not able to prove that Mr. Peltier personally committed any offense on the Pine Ridge Reservation.” https://www.huffpost.com/entry/leonard-peltier-prison-clemency-biden_n_618049f3e4b059d0bfc19e5c The fucking guy is practically dead, but, free the man.1 point

https://americanaffairsjournal.org/2021/11/the-cia-and-the-new-dialect-of-power/ “The CIA’s adoption of the new dialect of power also has wider implications given the ongoing debate over whether, in the words of the economist Tyler Cowen, “wokeism will rule the world” and become the next great American export.48 If exporting “wokeism” abroad is a goal of the United States, the CIA will play an important role. Historically, the agency has been more adept at cultural manipulation than intelligence gathering (see the Bay of Pigs Invasion, the failure to predict the Iranian Revolution, the failure to predict the Yom Kippur War, the failure to predict the Soviet Invasion of Afghanistan, the failure to predict 9/11, the faulty intelligence pointing to the existence of WMDs in Iraq, and most recently, miscalculating the strength of Ashraf Ghani’s government in Afghanistan).49 After all, this is an agency that failed to foresee the success of its own propaganda efforts in the dissolution of the Soviet Union. Given its track record, the CIA is certainly not above culture jamming abroad, but the question of why it would even bother remains. In a rebuttal to Cowen, Ed West, the senior editor of UnHerd, argues that wokeism is unlikely to resonate among elites in China, India, and the Middle East because wokeness is not an ideology or a set of discrete political demands, but rather a Western vernacular.50 Its single consistent demand—inclusion of individual minorities at the elite level—is already a feature in much of the non-Western world. Iran reserves a number of seats in its parliament for religious minorities; affirmative action in government jobs for “scheduled castes and tribes” is written into the Indian constitution; and the Chinese Communist Party sets quotas for ethnic minority representation in its congress. This serves as a legitimization tactic for the current elite in these countries just as wokeness does here. Of course, woke language is far less likely to have any substantive effect on the well-being of its purported beneficiaries. Take the decline of black wealth under the presidency of Barack Obama or Aung San Suu Kyi’s heartfelt interview with future CIA operative Amaryllis Fox over the treatment of minorities in Myanmar—combined with her failure to stop, or even acknowledge, the genocidal treatment of the Rohingya under her premiership—as examples. Anything “woke” the CIA says or does, from its use of the elite vernacular to the invocation of human rights, is aimed at the politically engaged American professional class first, and the cosmopolitan elite second. On the international stage, it will continue to utilize “wokeness” to attack opponents like China and Iran for their treatment of minorities while ignoring or defending the actions of allies like Israel and Saudi Arabia, as it has for decades. Opponents of the United States and its allies will similarly criticize America’s treatment of minorities, Palestinians, African Americans, or whomever happens to be in the news that day, with accusations of hypocrisy flying from both sides. Thus wokeness is unlikely to be useful to the CIA as a tool of cultural imperialism writ large. Still, moral justifications for state interference abroad will continue to be marshalled to convince the American public and some global audiences of the necessity of those interventions, such as the Bush-era hand-wringing over the plight of Afghan women under Taliban rule. As for the superficial spread of the dialect of power, this is probably inevitable, if articles like “‘You Don’t Look Dalit’ and Other Things ‘Upper Castes’ Must Stop Saying to Dalits Immediately,” published in an Indian newspaper, are any indication, at least among the anxious professional classes.51”1 point
