I know what you mean.. mine's on its third battery from years ago. It's one of the extended size ones, even came with a new back cover for the phone because the original can't handle the thicker battery, but it's showing its age now. Used to go 4-5 days on a charge, now I'm lucky to get 2, and looking around there are still some places that sell them, but most of them are stupid expensive or a tad sketchy... or a little of both.

Nice! I'm still running my S4 with LineageOS, although it's got some bumps and bruises and doesn't look as shiny as yours still does.

I guess when you're living in your van down by a river.

Varies wildly for me but usually whenever the opportunity presents itself, although it mostly ends up being cats. I always have cat food and water outside near my back door for strays. Two days ago I brought a can of wet food for a feral momma and her kittens on the other end of town. (Trying to make friends with mom, but not much luck so far.) Was leaving veggies out for a deer that was living in my backyard this spring until she moved on. Occasionally put stuff out for the birds when I can. I also don't mow certain sections of my yard and my daughter's yard much because the bees love the clover that grows in those spots.

The bouquet of flowers is for the fallen family member that task fell to.

Curious, from a non-american... does texas have to put it through a special election as well? I've seen several articles talking about it going to a vote in Cali, but nothing about texas needing to do the same.

That was my first thought... who makes up the other 17%? Journalists and the occasional hamas guy?

Yup, it sucks. Used to be pretty good but they switched suppliers, now it tastes like crap. Macdonalds now has their old supplier (but doesn't use the specific blend) and is way better than the tar they used to sell.

I vote for "orange-staining"

A lot of people simply walk across the border. (But please don't try this in winter unless you fully understand our winters, many freeze to death that way.)

 

I wonder if JB Weld can fix this. I guess only one way to find out.

 

They're from the phones you see in old movies that you had to crank to talk to an operator, commonly used up until the 1950's. I put my multimeter on one and it's still reading 1.3 volts. The owner told me I can take the whole lot of them if I want them which I'm tempted to do just because I like to collect old junk but I probably drag enough useless crap home as it is.

 

I tried looking around a little and it sounds really scammy to me. All the contact info and domain registrars is listed "redacted for privacy." Personally the whole thing seems to smell funny to me but I could be wrong. Anyone used or heard of this site before? I just want to make sure my daughter isn't going to get screwed over

In the background of the one pic you can see one of the abandoned schoolhouses in the distance.

 

I didn't get a closer pic of this one sadly because a)Bees and b) I got distracted by the old Fargo that's directly behind me in this pic.

"How to get thousands of people to send you money with little to no effort. Send $5 and a self addressed stamped envelope to..."

I've always wondered how many people fell for that.

 

Well that was unexpected. Rip Matthew
