That's no excuse... everybody knows the Republicans kept on cheating with gerrymandering and still Americans voted them in over and over.

Sorry bud but I think you are being pedantic here. It is basically industry standard (again, Murica driven) to advertise specs in whatever freedom units rubes would most easily swallow

You are not wrong but you act like this is your first day finding out about marketing

have you met muricans? you mention "capacity" and half would assume you are talking trunk space

yes and with the cuts, millions more would go from a bad situation to a desperate one... the more desperate, the better the slave

because tying healthcare to people's work is the modern whip of slavery

they want to ensure you have no options left but to be a slave to the shitty conditions of whatever job they want you to do

is that what we are doing or just wishful thinking?

so far all I have seen from Carney is everything Trump would want. C2 takes Canada a step closer to a police state supposedly to fight fentanyl smuggling. C5 gives oil and gas a free ride and allows the envirioment to go to shit as long as oil and gas are making money

if this is "pretending" to let trump win, I fail to see the difference to capitulating

finally, there will be no midterm nor can we bend over and give trump everything for 2 years hoping what? that the Dems will save us? tüat's beyond naive

I take it to mean "disband" the IDF

if the extreme right can be loose with the meaning of words, so can we

because of your "rugged individualism" and later your "bravely sitting down" attitude

Hi Lemmy,

I want to do a project that involves concrete. Basically I am making steps, giving them texture and stamping them so it looks somewhat like stones.

I have watched a million videos and I feel I can tackle this, plus I have a lot of areas to practice that won't be too visible so if the steps look a bit amateur it's fine.

My biggest question is about the effort of mixing concrete. I have a corded drill with a mixing paddle and most steps won't require much. However a few are larger and I would have to mix 10 bags or so. The drying time allows me to work one at a time and then do my stamping but I was wondering if this is feasible from an effort perspective.

I am an experienced DIYer but have not worked much with concrete, I made a coffee table, post bases, etc but never something that requires so many bags... am I setting myself up for failure / a broken back? hehehe

 

"Unexpectedly"... who would have thought that taking a chainsaw to all establish trade could be an issue?!
