Tick Stick: The Carpentry Tool That Does the Impossible
alt text
This showed up on my Youtube recommendations last night and I watched the whole thing and it's very cool to learn something like this at my age.
Oh my dudes, I've been so obsessed with this channel for years now that I even signed up for his learning academy. Something I've really gotten from his channel & content is how many of the guys who taught me stuff growing up as well as how many guys out there right now who think they know how to do something don't/didn't know *jack shit*. So it's been really nice to learn from some actual pros how to do not just advanced techniques but even some pretty basic tool work correctly. So many times I've had the thought, "Well, I *think* I know how or about [X] but let's watch it and see," and then go, " . . . . Huh! TIL!"
It's pretty sexist at times but other than that I really enjoy it, and have even gotten probably a dozen plus better/more applicable tools as a result.

Visiting the kiddo in Boston and our flight out today got canceled because reasons.
Couldn’t get a flight out till Wednesday night. Whee!
At least I get to feel nostalgia for all the Nanook of the North cosplay from my Connecticut blizzard childhood. Snorkel parka FTW.

our local high school orchestra is stuck in NYC (well, Jersey, actually) for similar reasons

I can clear out the guest room if need be?
Now form a band

A scan of a page from a zine (with the ghosts of the opposite page bleeding through) showing a guitar tabs for three chords, A, E, and G. They are labeled "this is a chord"; "this is another"; "this is a third". Underneath, underlined, it reads "Now form a band."

As re https://mltshp.com/p/1RKVQ.
"'There’s an illustration from a fanzine called Sideburn #1, which was a drawing made by Tony Moon just to fill the space. It’s a drawing of three guitar chords and it says, "now form a band". That fanzine is extremely rare, but the drawing is often quoted by lots of musicians as the impetus to do something, and it’s seen as a key message of punk,' says Toby. 'You didn’t need to have been to music school or be particularly proficient or skilled. It was much more about the energy and drive to do something. It’s a rallying call to the troops.'"

I don't really follow sports other than hockey, but the Art But Make It Sports account is great. It's on a variety of socials, but here's a link from bsky.
Woke up at 5am for the gold medal game, good times.

That game was so good! Canada was absolutely brutal and should have blown the US away.

He was an art instructor, who was overshadowed by his students. Sort of a fitting tribute, and he was a fine painter.

Found in a lavish tomb in Kazakhstan, these 2,300-year-old Pazyryk individuals highlight a fascinating mix of cultures.
The man displays local Iranian Scythian features, while the young woman exhibits distinct East Eurasian traits, suggesting she was an "outlier" married into the elite.

Tote bag

A beige tote bag with the Rebel Loon insignia, a mashup of the Star Wars rebel insignia and the state bird of Minnesota, in red ink. The loon’s wings make a circle with the tips at the top, pointing to an eight pointed star. The head of the loon is angled toward the top right.
Some neighbors and I went to a screen printing event this afternoon.

samosa larger than a small tractor
alt text
An old small grey tractor sits in a snowbank. In front, a large and out of focus samosa is being held out to it
I'd heard about the tiny gas station in rural Ontario that made fantastic samosas, but only got there yesterday. They are truly amazing. One type (veggie: potato) but everything about the flavour and texture is perfect. The tamarind sauce is a nice dip, too.
Regional Variety & Gas Bar: 1670 St Paul St West, St Catharines
It's surrounded by vineyards. It's about half an hour west of Niagara Falls. We have amazing samosas in Toronto, but these are next-level.

Reminds me of the (in)famous gas station sushi here, on a state highway in what used to be a rural area but exurban development has swarmed past it within the past decade.
Gas stations with southern cooking and soul food hot bars are very much a thing hereabouts, it's one of the main ways to get fried chicken or pork chops once you're outside the cities, but the gas station sushi shop is still unique as far as I can tell. I haven't tried it yet but want to, it's not in a convenient place for us to get to. They sell teeshirts and other swag because of course they're leveraging the fact that people want to show off to their friends about the time they had gas station sushi.

I've heard tell of a truckstop in Minnesota frequented by South Asian truck drivers that has amazing food, but I haven't verified the stories yet...
@ardgedee gas station sushi sounds like russian roulette
@ba I remember hearing of a similar place near Phoenix, AZ. Phoenix has had a Sikh community for over a century.

I want to say I beat this game while I was home sick one day, but that may have been a fever dream
@y95 lol yeah this whole game was like a fever dream. 🤣
I get the music for this game stuck in my head more than any other Mario title.
I've been trying to figure out how to cut a piece of flooring to fit the space precisely without resorting to trial and error - and I think you just posted the answer.
