plan 9 when

the technical term is “buttering the brick”, and as an added bonus, mortar is colloquially called “mud”! hehe

YURI! YURI! YURI!!!

for extra hallucinations simply assume the consumption of one (1) early 1900s fire extinguisher’s worth of carbon tetrafluoride as part of your scribe’s daily fluid intake

every time we see AI mix up *U* and *V* we just imagine it not as a machine, but instead as a european renaissance-era writer who accidentally time traveled into the current year and promptly got locked up in a cubicle with a real-time brain scanner wired up that interfaces with chatbot programs seen online

mm our font renders them basically the same hehe

honestly just went “well its gotta happen after some time” so we just decided to send it. we were a bit of a very extremely nervous wreck with us posting this in the morning but it went well in the end. still was very much a late night impulse hehe, in fact we wrote the note the night before so we didn’t have the time to convince ourselves it was a bad idea in the morning.

(mothers reaction was, pretty much she was not surprised at all. sister was completely dumbfounded at how she didn’t realize…)

uh a little stressful. was going to continue cleaning and fixing car but an approximately 1.5 ton pile of rocks magically appeared in our driveway on thursday. our family has yet to explain us why…

we’ll be visiting beach in a couple hours though, it will be the first time we’ve gone swimming in uhh… wow over six years at this point? anyways the dysphoria shall prevail no longer!!

also in the near future planning to go to the coast via bicycle. not the worst idea we’ve ever had though :3

finally we’re gonna be trying to get into some private pilot training. lots and lots of planning and stuff but wish us luck!!! (apparently still cheaper than college tuition by several times lol)

edit:

wait this is how the past week has gone. to answer that uh, family health problems. will not delve into the specifics but at least one night we had to bike over an hour home while very sleepy, the bus does not run that late sadly. lots and lots of taking care of others in general, both family and friends who are themselves not doing so well.

we suck at writing this week hehe sorry!!!

edit 2:

turns out the rocks are for landscaping. wish we were told a little sooner but oh well :)

we just went to that area yesterday!! its very rocky and lots of cliffs on the coast, and super super hilly and forested in the interior.

many absolutely do live there, and those municipalities marked on your map there are reasonably populated. but the terrain is not super great for building large stuff, and they really do not like deforestation either. it is also farther away from freeway I-5, where most stuff on the west coast is freighted by truck, and is more expensive, at least from our experiences.

the sunset on the coast is SO pretty though :)

nothing in particular has been super eventful, but there is a girl who has been spending a lot of time with us when we eat lunch and so forth as of the week before the last, and who also has the kind of autism where like… she just spends so much time watching stuff on the internet. think like the amazing digital circus. she also has a pet fox and identifies as one (as a therian) herself!! (and yes her fox is cute)

oh also on an unrelated note we have decided to build a motorcycle from some stuff we had lying around our garage or the shop, plus whatever stuff we can scavenge for free locally. we’ve designed and built a go kart before, so, surely this couldn’t be that complicated…? :3

the microchips in the equipment you are using to view this are merely rocks with magical runes carved into them.

you look to be right!! they do not look to be able to accommodate a hinge. we weren’t able to find a photo of the area of interest unfortunately.

our two cents on this:

if there are hinges on the rear of the hood, it may just slide up the windscreen, as the screws (or whatever fastener) used to attach them might simply rip out. the planks used as the frame of the hood look to provide a very convenient load path directly towards said hinges, and the not so strong looking mounts they are on. as you said, wood can withstand much compression along the grain, meaning those mounts would be put under very high loads, and probably fail.

and if those mounts did not fail, the actual sheet of plywood or OSB used isn’t super thick, maybe about three eighths of an inch, or about 10mm if it’s metric? its failure mode would likely involve buckling or it just crumbling into pieces… cars are heavy!

either way, the windscreen is very strong, and the wood used here is a lot weaker, at least as far as loads on the broad surface go. the most pertinent hazard here seems to be of the hood catching air, flipping up, and obstructing the view of the operator. there do look to be tie-downs here to stop that, but even the non-modified hood of a regular passenger vehicle can absolutely flip up if it is not closed properly! again, the windscreen would likely still protect the occupants, and in the latter case has for many.

of course, this is all conjecture… much more information would be needed about this setup to come to a decisive conclusion. happy engineering! :)

maybe a hair tie or marker pen. sometimes tools (mainly wrenches). uhh not really any specific pockets we use for stuff, ,

tyy, the socks seem to be a favorite among the crowds. yesterday at protest, we also wore them and received no less than fourteen compliments about them. further ones are still VERY welcome though hehe :D

they are also so so super comfy. if you haven’t any knitted stuff, do get some!!
