    I've settled a bit. Attending the memorial was the right move. I was rarely allowed to attend events like that growing up and it made processing things take longer I think.

    Since we live in a simulation or something the girlfriend of one of the firemen is my neighbor down the street. She recognized my truck from the bar and base and walked up to speak when I got home. Which brought up some unsettling stuff about the biker gang and witnesses I wasn't aware of.

    Totally odd premise for a movie, I agree. But the kid was funny, aged like milk though, poor guy

    Classic though, watch that little turd every year, curled up on the couch with some soup or hot chocolate.

    Tangent but related, everyone should solo camp a bit. Be comfortable with themselves in a "vacuum". Those that aren't married are like, yeah bro, that's what we do. Married dudes, forgot what they are missing!

    I was going to work for a dealership as a mechanic/tech working flag hours (surprisingly they didn't mind skipping me being a lube tech)

    Than I remembered I really hate working on cars

    So I applied at to the service center at Walmart... right off the bat they offered me $15.40... more than I negotiated to at the dealership I was going to work at and got me working within 3 days whereas I was 2 months into the hiring process at the dealership (interviews, ethics tests, and other extrenuous crap)

    I really don't have any enthusiasm about making my own custom hard brake lines. This hour project has taken months of procrastinating to even think about starting. Better give myself a few hours first

    Do you have the parts needed to make them?

    If so, why not throw on some music...preferably something upbeat (some Stick Figure, Iration, Rebelution, Muffin Song, etc) and just get started!

    Remember, 80% of the work is simply starting the project.

    More and more I look, the I3 12100F seems to be an absolute great value of a processor (for gaming)

    Cheaper and better performing than the 5600X I looked at
