That makes a lot of sense. I’ll try that
Does anyone know an expert in bird law?
Oh man, I have many many written down. I quickly found out that there are many schools of thought for approaching woodworking, so it’s helpful to think about what you want to make and what you like or dislike as you try different things. I decided I wanted to go the sharpening route, as opposed to continually buying electro-hardened blades, and I wanted to use as simple as tools as I can learn how. This ends up being axes, chisels, saws, and I did get a hand-crank grinder from 1910 for those heavy grinding situations.
I almost always have the Mortise and Tenon podcast on as I’m doing things. Joshua and Mike’s discussions really resonate with me and the philosophical elements really prompt some introspection. Joshua has two books that I’ll probably get soon. Otherwise, I bought Sharpen This and the Anarchists’ Toolkit; anything from Lost Art Press is probably worth the money.
As far as channels, Matt Estlea has many great videos for the essentials of sharpening and good form for chiseling and sawing. He also has other videos that I would consider “optional” but I did end up making his sharpening block stop, because it makes sharpening quicker. I may try to do free hand honing though, since the heavy cambre is difficult with a honing guide.
Paul Sellers has so many great videos. I especially loved him making a bench without having a bench. So many people show you how to make things already having many other tools and setups.
James Wright (Wood by Wright) has some really good videos and offers honest opinions. Beavercraft has some nice simple ones for getting started with carving. I haven’t explored one for tool restoration yet; if you have any that you suggest, I’d be happy to hear them. I eventually want to just make my own wooden planes.
That sounds like a unique experience. When I had a running coach for a short while, he said I should curl my toe down as I pull my leg back. The lack of exercising that bottom foot muscle often contributes to flat-footedness. This wasn’t probably an issue when people walked barefoot because we naturally dug into the earth for traction.
Do your feet ever get sore?
I can relate with the passion for learning. I think that is so invigorating. Since you like physics and reading, if you haven’t already, I would highly recommend Project Hail Mary and Artemis, each by Andy Weir. He is an astrophysicist, so his works occur how they would likely physically happen as we understand physics currently. Super neat but different plots for each.
Thank you. I wholeheartedly agree, learning to work with nature such as wood, instead of imposing our will on it definitely gives me perspective on considering our connection with nature. In the modern era, much of how we connect with nature is removed or sterilized.
I’m really glad to hear you sing. There are so many ways music and rhythm weave through our lives. I expect a follow up post if you Snow White like 20 birds onto your arms!
I’ve enjoyed using Mango. It’s always been free but there’s a paid version now too. It dives right into useful conversation, but gives cultural context before, like formal/informal or when certain phrases are used. It has flash cards built between lessons to help with memorization and you can even record your pronunciation and hear/see the audio clip and how it compares to how you are saying it. It also has the ability to download lessons for offline use. I first used it because it was one of the only apps/websites that specifically taught the Levantine dialect of Arabic not found on other apps.
I’m glad she had a good outcome. But this isn’t the first time a TAVR was done on a pregnant person. A quick search shows one from 2016, 2022, 2020, and another from 2022. It’s nice to have more confidence in this option for a pregnant person with severe aortic valve stenosis.
The article makes it sound like it’s the first instance of this situation, but it looks like it’s the first time it was performed by a Methodist-based healthcare organization.
I suppose that makes sense, especially if texts were rare
Sure but this isn’t just about reading and writing as skills. So you don’t find it different that everyone used to read out loud to themselves as a common practice and now everyone reads silently? Would it not be strange if everyone read books out loud to themselves on a bus or in their home?
That’s interesting. I suppose it’s similar to having the radio or TV on the background at work.

Thanks for all of the work on the app. I like how snappy and clean it is. I’m also big on the customization options, so I love the sepia color theme option and comment cascade options. I’d love to have a few icon options whenever possible. The markdown editor is also pretty welcomed. The search option is pretty nice too.
While making this post, it looks like the text box runs off to the right, and the markdown editor blocks the the visible text box from moving appropriately. The post also was not able to be posted via this app.
Some amazing additions I’d like to request are the default feed option (ie Home/Subscribed), groups/multi communities, and favorite communities. Also, text size options and a “Mark above as read” button (sometimes I scroll past and haven’t read it but still want to hide it).
Thanks again for creating something nice.
edit: it looks like the multi-group is an option but the button doesn’t currently lead anywhere. Also, the smart search feature seems to be one of the best for finding new communities. I put myself in the place of a new user and tried to search for communities on a few other apps; it’s surprisingly difficult to find active communities. I also just noticed the bars hiding for full-screen scrolling, which I’m a big fan of.
I was using the link button to share a link but I like being able to select the word I want to link, click the link button and paste, and have the word I selected in brackets and linked. Right now when I select the word and add the link, it pastes the link after the selected word with blank brackets. So I ended up just manually typing out the bracket and parentheses format, but then the font got quite weird. 😬

Like with most things, I’m cautiously optimistic. It will probably take longer than necessary, for sure. But businesses being able to get money another way might evoke some motivation to get it done. I just don’t know about the demand right now. I see a few electric cars around, but the cold reduces the distance, so I personally think that WI just won’t have as many electric cars. Maybe plug-in hybrids though.
And it’s a bit of a chicken and egg. Maybe more stations would encourage people to consider electric vehicles.
