Air's too thin, can't get enough lift.

$100 worth of .22WMR. It's the only ammo I'm lacking and I so love my .22s.

My stepson was always singing I Will Survive. Mentioned that was sorta the gay anthem. He was horrified. So he started singing YMCA instead.

12 billion rounds sold annually and you think the cops or government gives a shit about this?!

We used to make fun of people like this. Humiliate them. Alas, no more. Everyone's opinion is now valuable.

Some solid advice in here.

I'd also check the coils inside the unit. Look up under the filter you pulled. Coils are probably over that. Get a flashlight and have a look.

If they're coated in gunk, they make spray cleaners that dissolve the whole mess.

Not cold enough, or frozen solid, sounds like nasty coils to me.

And the left will allow it to be. Liberals will meekly go onto the trains while screaming about the hypocrisy and injustice. And meanwhile, the trains will run.

Wonder why minorities, LGBT and women are the largest gun purchasing demographic, and have been for a few years? You suburban white boys better pull your head out your ass and learn.

Buy ammo now. Prices and supply are going to be nuts very soon.

He would have been hung 200-years ago.

At 75'?! I sure couldn't do that. Not without birdshot.

I have a WILD solution. Stop giving them money. And somehow this never occurs to anyone on here.

I come here for cooking tips, not lies.

Where do I begin to even see if I'm interested?

I'm wanting something to run around the hood and offroad, mostly in deep sand. An electric version of this: https://www.tractorsupply.com/tsc/product/coleman-mini-bike-bt200x-g

What else do I need to be concerned about?

Got a couple of acres in a NW Florida swamp. Been hearing Barred Owls for years.

How do I spot one? And tricks other than sitting still and being quiet? They seem to come pretty close. Can I "bait" them somehow with a box or something they would like to visit?

Funny story: First night I camped, three were doing their call/response thing. Every time they called, closer, and closer. Freaky sounding, one of the calls sounds almost like a child crying out.

For some reason, my idiot self thought coyotes were closing in. (Yes, I know well what coyotes sound like.)

Got a little freaked, grabbed my .410 (tiny shotgun) and decided to take the fight to them, scare 'em off (didn't want them rooting around my site). Again, I'm not the sharpest tool in the shed, promptly got lost.

Got home, "Hey Google! What do coyotes sound like?" Oh FFS. I am not a clever man.

Saw a Pileated Woodpecker the other day though! Super cool and way bigger than I thought.

Saw this on the table. Been waiting all year for the prism to start working well!

It stands to reason he must have been doing something right to have stayed so close to the halls of power.

I was a toddler when he was carpet bombing Cambodia, never knew him as anything but "an important person" that was sometimes on the TV. Only learned of his crimes in the past decade.

How did an in-your-face war criminal retain such influence for so long?

I'm an old (GenX), straight, white, American guy, but I'm right with you all.

I might say things that are offensive, because I can't pretend to be in your shoes and might get something wrong. I'm often just trying to understand. Hell, I didn't figure out that gay rights are civil rights, my rights, our rights, until 10+ years ago.

It's 100% OK if you want to keep this a non-cis space. I get that and won't be butthurt.

(If shotguns are your jam, I got many more to post! Weirdly, of all the antique and vintage shotguns I have, this cheap-ass Turkish thing runs like a dream.)

Nothing fancy, neither is terribly new or old. Not being able to sew is really holding me back on DIY projects.

Is there an "Operating a Sewing Machine for Dummies" video or tutorial you like?
