I'm here to tease people, discuss forestry, FNs Rights & title and stupid stuff.
Went for my yearly physical, my doctor said my BMI says I'm too short.

I got a Motorola RAZR 2023, and having the Bluetooth from the Quick settings, pop up a toggle, is quite possibly the stupidest choice I've seen in tech since Apple put the charging port on the bottom of their mouse.

Who cares what a poll of a few Canadians want? They don't even know that what they want exists

Here's the final draft of the TFL37 FLP. It's been submitted to BC, now we wait.

This changes the way forestry happens in the Nimpkish watershed, for more benefit to the things living out there short and long term.

Based on the average weight of an adult Canadian, "a ton of people" is only like 12 or 13 people.

LOL

The most shocking thing about the cartoon Handy Manny, isn't the talking hammer or the sentient screwdriver, it's the fact that when Manny goes to the hardware store, they have what he needs.

Every. Single. Time.

That ruins the whole show for me. That's not believable. At. All.

I love Instagram/tiktok "hacks" to make quick meals that need 96 minutes of prep with 11 tools, 14 bowls 17 ingredients, as well as ignoring the pre cooking or some parts.

TIL

A buttload, comes from a butt, which was a large cask that held 126 gallons and was used for wine or ale.

A buttload was a full "butt" of liquid.

Ok, I just learned this and I don't want anyone else to miss out on 30+years of good scrambled eggs.

The answer is a metric ton of butter.

And for those of you who knew this. Thanks for nothing.

Do kids still make pipes out of copper fittings at the hardware store?

Cooking with cast iron constantly, and scrubbing it (I know, sacrilege, don't murder me there's an end goal, I'M SORRY!) will put more iron in to your diet and can help with anaemia.

Scrub after every meal with Scotch Brite. Season more often. Cook with EV olive oil.

No more iron pills...

Human babies can't hold their heads up for months.

Centaur babies would break their necks minutes after birth."

Specialists, take are special.

Overheard a contractor say, "yeah this is good still, I like it."

It was dirt.

But I know they need for soil, sand and gravel for construction... So I know that guy likes his job.
