I thought it was just me! I almost never have BO, unless I'm wearing polyester. Sitting for 8 hours in a football shirt is like equivalent to me not showering for a week.

I don't understand it.

I was just on the Turkish coast and to my surprise, I found an ING atm. "Sweet, its my bank so I shouldn't have any fees!" I said to my boat driver (who only speaks Turkish).

They charged me like 3%.

Well that one is a baritone (26.5" or 27" scale) but still pretty thin (about as thick as the typical strat) and ergonomic.

My other guitar, a 1960s teisco, is one of the lightest guitars I've ever owned:

I'm gonna modify this one though and put a tuneomatic on here, the intonation is quite terrible.

They also feel...worse? Jumbo frets, thick coats of polyurethane, cheap pickguards, plastic pickup covers, etc — yuck.

I've been buying weirdo vintage guitars (teisco, musima) and they feel way better in my hands. The pickups are usually pretty low output, yeah, but the cleans sound so so good.

And that quite a lot of Ukrainians support Israel and don't see the similarities between their struggle and the Palestinian's — I don't get it.

E: and to the down voters, I am Ukrainian diaspora and lived in Kyiv until the war and visit regularly. I have these conversations frequently when I'm there.

This is called "double tap strike" and was a tactic used frequently during the American invasion of Iraq & Afghanistan. They learned from the best, unfortunately.

I think this is likely just some political theater to shut France up. They'll find him guilty, and then sentence him to house arrest where he can relax in his beach side mansion (it's very nice btw)

SS13 has a chef on the station who makes all sorts of food, but mostly pizzas and burgers. I don't recommend eating their food though, it's pretty likely it will be made of your coworkers.

The АТБ graffiti really makes it.

I fucking love АТБ, best supermarket.

District heating/cooling is a big one. I think NY is still using 1st gen technology which is kind of crazy in this day and age (also crazy it's one of the few places in the US using DH). We've moved so far in DH that I can't imagine why they're still using steam. The newest generation networks operate just above ambient, so the fact they're still using steam blows my mind.

 

I took this photo of the statue of Yaroslav the Wise near Andriivsky Uzviz in Kyiv with a church in the background in spring 2020(2021 maybe?). I did some slight photo editing to remove power lines from the frame.

Today, the statue is covered with sandbags to protect it from Russian missiles/shaheds
