They’re not attracted to gaslight

Is this true? I remember using gas lights while camping in the 90s, they definitely attracted bugs, but I can’t remember if moths were specifically. Where I live now moths would be the primary issue and we have a bunch of old gas lamps. Maybe I should use them. Except for the pollution and other bug death.

You treat Sandy well!

Wow I have never given a horse a bath, can’t imagine what that is like 🙂 we do have a mule who enjoys having his butt washed but that is because of other things going on.

While I have a lot of issues with Department of Defense things, being over budget is a pretty common challenge in the private sector, too. Transportation is over budget a lot because we underfund it. Not that the current administration cares.

We will deal with it, thanks for making this list ❤

Get some dialup and see what is on alt. nowadays?

🙁 for me it was over 20 years ago, I do not know how many countries he toured in, tho. I am happy people continue to appreciate his work!

Have you heard of Diane Ackerman? She has a book, A Natural History of the Senses, that gets deep into human connection to these things.

When you say you miss sound, you mean while reading? I wonder if there are books that get deep with sound description. I can think of a couple that might, but they of course do not have actual sound.

That’s a great reference.

I’m in my 40s and learned about this just a few years ago. Never affected my reading of different genres. I guess I didn’t know any different! It did help me understand why I don’t have the great memories of childhood things like my close-in-age sister does. I have always relied on her for details.

On Mbin, I believe this is something that is being looked at (so we would know), maybe lemmy.world also?

With that little low spot, it looks like a favorite cozy place!

I didn’t cry, but was pretty sad when Mitch Hedberg passed. And earlier, when I learned my childhood fave Harry Chaplin had been gone for a few years.

This is one of mine. So glad I was able to see him perform! Very unexpected.

I was working as a Wilderness Ranger in north Georgia USA when he died, and there was a place folks were building a shrine to him.

I live in an area that has gold mining and brothels. After reading this, I now wonder if trafficking is an issue in my place. Not a lot of opportunity for locals, but there are young folks 😐

Fascists have argued that the enemy is both strong and weak, for a long time. The enemy changes over time perhaps, but it doesn’t seem that the far right does.

If you have locking lug nuts, a spare socket for them. When I worked as a mechanic, it wasn’t uncommon to need to do a repair only to find the last mechanic had not returned it. We had other options, but the owner would have had a bad night with a flat tire.
