I really liked this show as a kid and I found a collection of all of them someone put together. I started watching them and, wow, what the fuck was wrong with me. The dinosaurs bits actually hold up ok but the eek bits are just unwatchable.

Lots of Western PA and most of WV are like this. Absolutely gorgeous wilderness areas and amazing outdoor activities but the towns are really depressing.

Summersville, WV is one of my favorite places to visit but I'd never live there. Fayetteville is awesome and the new National Park is helping bring money. It's funny to me the locals are upset that it is bringing in money but it was kind of depressing before. There needs to be some happy medium so the locals benefit but they need to stop fighting progress.

Check the nearest large city. For example, in Pennsylvania anyone in the state can sign up for the Philadelphia library even if you've never been to Philly. The process is entirely online.

I've also been told some libraries will let anyone sign up online for a yearly fee. Then you use the Libby app to borrow books.

That is amazing and so well done! If you aren't already some sort of writer, you should give it a go. I'd read your articles.

I worked in print before Canva. They were going to send you shit files with or without that tool. Most tried to send word docs or power points so Canva is probably a step up.

Everyone is saying water but there is a feeling that most people seem to not recognize. Needing electrolytes is distinct from hungry or thirsty but just as important. If you crave a salty food that might be what you need. I figured it out by hiking and getting that feeling.

It does not have an internal battery but can use any battery pack that can do 100W output.

I pre-ordered this for a few reasons. One, my experience with butane irons was very different than yours I guess. I hated how long they took and how finicky they were. Then I had to find a safe place to put it while it cooled. This has a cap that can handle the high temp with no issue.

When I need a portable iron it's to do small quick soldering with long waits in between. This seems perfect for that.
