Secondary market enthusiast. Repurposing champion. Simple life, family and food. Repurposed a dead meme account for me to share a little piece of my IRL world with those interested. Real people living real lives. Also considering participating in the circular economy. Might later I dunno.

The world from where I sit. image This camera doesn't do the moon justice at night.
This is what I live for. My favorite people (and dogs) in the world in one picture. image
So, I just randomly decided to do an online search for "cholesterol medication and skin cancer" because I've heard that your body creates vitamin D from cholesterol with sun exposure and wondered if it's possible that taking cholestorol lowering drugs increases risk for skin cancer. I was surprised to find dozens of studies correlating statin consumption and skin cancer, and none that correlate high cholesterol and skin cancer. Mind blown. @atyh thank you for putting me onto this line of investigation, if I hadn't heard of this connection between cholestorol and vitamin D production I never would've gone down this path.
My body is ready. Got this used for 50 bucks, I don't know who needs to know this but if you can learn how to use this thing you don't need anything else to make music. I play guitar, so this thing will be for drums and things. Let's hope it works out. image
Who's ever heard of a starter *and* a battery going out at the same time? Got a bad battery replaced under warranty, new battery still won't start the truck. Replaced the starter, it starts right up. But the funny thing is, an unrelated problem disappeared. I think I'll go kayaking tomorrow morning if the water isn't too choppy, now that I can get the kayak to the water again. image
I wish I had a way to tow a kayak on a bicycle. Also, a way to carry a bicycle on a kayak. I'd go fucking everywhere under manual power. A man can dream.
Riding a bicycle around my town. I'm fortunate enough to live in a place where I can get where I need to be on one without riding up some big giant highway or something, the joys of living in a small fishing village. "15 minute city" lol but the people who love to use that phrase would never live here, too many working class "bumpkins" and not enough commie bloc housing. I'm completely geared up to take my whole family all around this place on bicycles, including the toddler and dog. I won't live in this spot forever, but while I'm here I'm gonna make the best of it, whip my ass into shape again, feel the tactile, infinite dimensions of experience in the world around me as I move through it. I'm only firing up the truck if I can't do something on my bike for the rest of my time in this place.
Share the music that's the theme of your day. I'll start. (Sorry it's a youtube link)
Me and some pink birds where I live. My buddy is not good at taking pictures. image
The owner of the property I'm on doesn't like my wife's cover crop choices for the ground in front of my hovel. Can you guess what they prefer? Grass. The land looks like shit, minus a few neighbors that plant roundup ready turf and put a ton of effort keeping the monocrop going. My wife just plucks undesirables periodically for an hour or so and helps a couple of native, not tall growing plants propagate around our place. The owner says it looks "abandoned", but it's the healthiest patch of ground here. Some people just don't get it. I can't wait until I own my patch of ground. All the grass will be doomed.
Busy as hell life lately. Kids are growing up and dad's role changes a little bit daily. So much to do and I'm too lazy to keep up with all of it. And the guys I'm doing work for right now are not behaving competently. But still, life's good.
Fucking crazy. My "confiscated" crab trap washed up on shore. Of all the places it could've wound up in the ocean, it just washes right up by itself. Wild. So free crab summer is officially back on. Apologies to my friend, who has promised to keep the date on it current from now on.
