what am i a construction worker or a fuckin Martha Stewart? i don't even know anymore man.

she said just figure something out there and use that tile up so i reckon I'll frame the tile with some kind of moulding when it's done and grouted. i don't even know what I'm doing tho. whatever i do there is gonna look bizarre becuz of that mirror tile.

I love Harley motorbikes.

For a photography project, I had the idea to photograph some of the members of that club.
As it happened there was such a headquarters (Hell's Angels) near where I lived.
I was all prepared to go there knock on the door and ask to take some pictures of some of the members.
I spoke to a friend about my intention.
He said ...Are you mad?
Why?
Taking pictures of the members of the club. They will think you are an undercover cop or something like that!
Yes, I never thought of that. OMG.
I gave up that idea tout suite.
Geez how naive I was.

here is a $1,100 (labor) in 14 hours true story that just happened to me.

Now just take a second and look at the numbers here and aks yourself why there is such a profit disparity between a wage worker making $25 per hr and making $350 off this work and a self employed carpenter making $1,100 off the same work in the same time. And no amount of overhead and 'business costs' would amount to a fraction of that kind of margin. So, those $25 per hour guys could make double what they do and the boss would still get a good chunk. I did the same kind of work for a company for three years and made not a third of what I make self employed. Why? Why goddamit?

Building inspectors please note: wood rot at bottom of porch columns is not critical because they are not load bearing. The porch roof is continuous trusses and not independently framed ceiling joists. Damage is cosmetic, not structural, and home owner opts to cover damage with base trim rather than install new columns.

What exactly does this mean?

ILP?

Why can't you log in? Is it a technical issue? Or have the mods/administrators prevented you from logging in? Hell, every year they allow Satyr to post his flagrantly reactionary Nazi bullshit as lorikeet for a month or so. And he is supposedly permanently banned from ILP.

And why not just create a new account and do a PM then?

Hell, I'll PM her if you'd like. Assuming that whoever it is -- hint, hint -- she still stops by more than once every three or four years.

If it is phoneutria, the last time she posted at ILP was "Mon Nov 14, 2022 2:41 pm". And the time before that "Sun Jun 27, 2021 1:24 am."

if i use a new screen name I'll have to go to the sheriff's office within 72 hours and report the new online identifier to the facists or i can be imprisoned for up to fifteen years.... and i ain't about to go through all that bullshit finding a place to park downtown just to get into ILP again.

am i gonna have to make an Instagram account to get her attention? is this what I must become, Biggs... an instagrammer? i don't even have facebook dude. principles man. i will not conform. whatever everybody else is doin I'm not gonna do, biggs. read; mercury, venus, moon and lilith in aquarius. 

Be a good sport and send'er a pm and tell'er to come over here and we can crash all the threads with our rapier wits. she hangs out on discord last i heard but that's where all the school shooters and korn fans hang out so i don't go there.

i got one for alex jones. if those balloons had biochemical or germ payloads and were on their way to populated cities, the government wouldn't let that info out becuz of the panic and unrest it would create and the antagonism it would have to face from the american people. better just keep that under wraps and tell everyone the balloons had surveillance equipment on em. 

hey didn't some japanese scientists toy with the idea of dropping bombs full of fleas with bubonic plague on the U.S. during WW2? where did i hear that?
