just updating this – I’m holding off on contacting anyone else just at the moment to give a couple of the orgs I’ve contacted a chance to get back to me. if those don’t work out I’ll contact individual people – I’m trying to keep the overhead of disposal manageable as I’m not local any more & am relying on a friend to provide access

thank you all so much for your interest 💕
 
 
 
hi frens 👋 does anyone in #Melbourne have any contacts who might be interested in #metalworking gear for cheap or free? I’m disposing of my dad’s estate & trying to find good homes for a garage full of equipment, tools, & some scrap metal – including drill presses, a lathe, welders, oxy tanks, etc.…

I’d much rather they go to folks who could make good use of them than have them sold off to a metal scrapper or end up in landfill

if you’re interested or have any leads on someone who might be, pls DM me

ETA: I’ve already contacted quite a few men’s sheds & men’s shed networks in Victoria & the few that I was able to get a response from weren’t able to take anything due to space or focus constraints 😕

pls #boost4reach

It's important to remember that, to the authoritarian mindset, "peace" means "my side in absolute control, the other side utterly destroyed". They appear constitutionally unable to conceive of a pluralistic peace, or at least find pluralism so unacceptable as to be not worth any price.

e.g. Rush Limbaugh at the 2009 CPAC Convention (emphasis mine):

Bipartisanship occurs only after one other result, and that is victory. In other words let's say, as conservatives, liberals demand that we be bipartisan with them in Congress. What they mean is we check our core principles at the door, come in, let them run the show, and then agree with them -- that's bipartisanship to them. To us, bipartisanship is them being forced to agree with us after we have politically cleaned their clocks and beaten them. [applause begins] And that has to be what we're focused on.

@artemis I need to write an essay or wiki page about how to persuade without closing off the possibility of updating your own beliefs when new evidence comes to light (i.e. maintaining a scientific, curiosity-driven, non-dogmatic approach) — which can be a difficult needle to thread.

(One big clue is to not trust people who say things that go against the evidence-based consensus without acknowledging that they're doing so. Such people are rarely arguing in good faith, and may not be capable of it. ...but I digress.)

…the only demographic with a positive view of Israel and PM Benjamin Netanyahu in the US…

I really want to understand what subtle cognitive trap has so thoroughly ensnared those folks that they still hold that position.

I'm sure "authoritarian followerism" describes it broadly, but just... how.

Boy howdy do I have a laundry hack for my fellow thrifters and upcyclers:

Removing old perfumed laundry detergent that gives me migraines used to take FOREVER.

In desperation today after washing a few shirts at least 3 times using baking soda, vinegar, and borax (not together) soaking each time, I threw about a cup of 90% isopropyl alcohol in a plain water wash and let it soak for about 2 hours. After it rinsed and spun out, the smell was nearly GONE.

WUT... HOLY CRAP.

@riley @cwebber em-dash almost always looks wrong to me; I tend to prefer the en-dash.

@wdlindsy If Trump were a fictional character, critics would be saying he was an unrealistically cartoonish villain.
