General Dog make sure are legal to fly your drone before you do. We live nowhere near an airport but are in an FAA zone that requires registration to fly a drone, something we found out when getting our roof done.


Also, crossposting from GWS but you guys always help me out too:

Does anyone use any apps to keep track of their kitchen inventory? I'm looking for something I could access from both mine and my wife's phone (Android and iPhone). Tired of wondering if we have X spice or sauce and ending up with 3 bottles. Would like to be able to track what spices, sauces/condiments, and what all we have in our deep freeze. We just packaged a lot of meat and come spring are probably going to be splitting a cow with some neighbors, so it would be nice to have everything on my phone instead of the dry erase board next to the deep freeze.

Paprika. I’ve been using it for years. It’s a recipe app, but they have a pantry you can utilize to keep track of what you have. I pull recipes from Milk Street or Serious Eats with the in-app browser, then you can
add groceries to a list right from the recipe. It’s on iOS, MacOS, Windows, and Android.

These are acceptable exceptions (assuming Bird’s wife is OK with this dynamic. It’s psycho poo poo to plow through a season you’re watching with someone else when they’re, like, at work or whatever.

We certainly didn’t walk it :) Left the 21st and got back about an hour ago. 4 days out, then 10 or so days visiting, then 4 back. We stopped in:

*Manhattan, KS
*St Louis
*Asheville
*Atlanta
*Memphis
*OKC

We don’t make any one leg too long so we can check stuff out along the way. Saw the Gateway Arch, got BBQ and listened to some music on Beale Street in Memphis, visited Tupelo and took a picture in front of an Elvis mural, and did quite a bit of hiking. Coolest place was Memphis, OKC was kinda meh. It’s fun!

tl;dr high school basketball game ends against 2 heated rivals, two players of the winning team go out and stomp on the logo, Terrell Owens style. 1 ref is there, calls a technical on both of them. Winning team appeals the call, and loses. Now Saturday (a month later) the losing team gets to take 4 free throw shots. If they make 1 or less, they lose, 3 or more they win. Chaos option is if they make 2 then they have to play overtime.

I live within walking distance of where these free throws are being taken.

That’s horseshit. All refs are cops, and, well…

Also for a long while now I’ve been bloated as gently caress after eating stuff, I’m a big guy but I don’t eat a lot in one sitting. 2 softies from Taco Bell or like A regular burger from Carls (Hardee’s) or Burger King (Hungry Jack for Blind) and I’m good. Even those places signature burgers like a Whopper or Famous Star are to much lately. So this week I cut out dairy and I’m sad to say it worked. I was raised drinking 1/2 a gallon of milk a day. I am both sad to lose cheese but excited to not feel like complete poo poo half the time

If it’s just some bloating maybe Lactaid pills would work? I don’t have dairy issues by my partner’s sister does and she’s usually good with just a tablet. I wouldn’t trust it to take care of a half gallon of milk but like a non-Wisconsinite level of dairy should be fine.

Precheck rules. Except in airports where they don't give you any bins when you still have to take items out of your pockets. Or in the Asheville airport where they have the Precheck line but give you a red card after they scan your ID/boarding pass but before the scanners. So of course people put the red card in the bin and TSA has to hold up the line to yell at people to carry the red card with them or take off their shoes, belts, etc. It makes no sense.

San Diego does the same thing with the card and I saw someone in front of me stick it in their mouth to empty their pockets :barf:

That’s actually the biggest airport I recall running into the card system; usually it’s the smaller regional airports. Although, if you travel with someone without precheck and go through the regular line with them you may get the card and keep your shoes on.

I stood outside for a little bit in jeans and a long T-shirt and it was cold but not nearly as bad as you might think. It was pretty still so the wind wasn’t a factor, if it’d whipped up I would have gone running back inside something quick I’m sure.

My day job isn’t actively harmful to society, so my philosophy has become “do enough to stay gainfully employed so I can then go out and do the things that matter”. I used to want a job that was germane to my interests and was “making the world a better place” but then I realized that that almost universally makes you hate the thing you used to love. Now I’m all about my creative stuff on my own time and volunteering on weekends and it’s a lot more fulfilling than if I was just, like, doing IT at a nonprofit or something.
