There is no reasoning with a narcissistic toddler.

I bet Trump promised some donors access to the minerals of Ukraine. And now those donors are getting mad at Trump.

Oh well, shouldn't promise something you don't already have.

If Trump was only an America problem, I would say the same thing you are saying.

I'm fine if the world attacks the US just enough so that Trump recedes to only the US.

What I am saying is that if Trump is making threats to the world, the world should take it seriously and deal with it now instead of letting him push boundaries without repercussions. His threats are going to just get bigger and hurt more people than when the threats are smaller.

The world needs to be on guard and protect itself.

I'm working on writing down lists on paper by hand, not typing into a device. I can copy over to a device, but the writing by hand is helpful.

And sometimes I'll write down tasks that I did finish already. For me, seeing the number of completed tasks doesn't matter much, but just the break to reflect on what has been done is grounding.

Sometimes even break the list into multiple lists, such as one where you move all the yard tasks to, and kitchen tasks, and cleaning tasks..., if the main list gets too long.

Sounds like you made changes to get better. The TDLR glosses over all that work and makes it seem like you are saying for OP to just sit and wait for it to resolve on its own.

Please, Europe, just take this as a declaration war and attack the US now to nip this in the bud.

The sooner this child is stopped, the sooner the world can improve.

How long until "Mercedes" kisses this new country leader at a press event instead of her husband?

I don't get why he cares.

Does he just want to have Ukraine publicly thank him?

Or did he promise the minerals from Ukraine to Elon?

Clearly Ukraine needs to set a tariff on Russian missiles and drones.

Protect yourself, Canada. Treat Trump as hostile.

 

I was lazy, so only did the side mirrors and both front door windows.

I usually just use gas station squeegees, so using the Windex and a cloth towel was a step up and got it really clean.

It's so nice looking out the side mirrors. I keep looking at them and marveling at how nice the world looks. Like when a person gets their first pair of glasses and sees the world in detail for the first time.

It's been a week and I'm still smiling about the clear view. Luckily it hasn't rained in that time.

I only get rain, no snow, so I keep telling myself the side mirror rain guards aren't useful at all for me.

 

Started on one computer mouse needing a new AA battery. Then re-glued the foot pad that had fallen off and was making it rock. While vigorously testing the other foot pads, they came off, and so I ended up re-gluing them all.

Then went one to another mouse and started to clean some dust in the corners of it. Turned out the dust was enough that I had an excuse to take it apart. Then there was enough random tiny fibers/hairs that I couldn't get off that I went to use the air compressor to really get it clean. And re-glued the feet pads here, because, why not.

With as much as I take apart my computer mice, it causes the factory sticky tape to fail. So I actually cut out an access whole where the foot pad covers the hidden screws. And then I can use gel super glue to keep the foot pads down fully without curling.

 

Currently installed is a recent (about 10 years) Harbor Bay 5 blade ceiling fan with 44" blade diameter.

In a box I have a recent (about 10 years) Harbor Bay 5 blade ceiling fan with 52" blade diameter.

Yes, the large blades will run the motor harder.

Would these two fans likely use the same motor, so that I can just swap the larger blades and leave the current motor? Or is there a high chance the motors are sized specific to their blades, and I would need to fully swap the motor to use the larger blades?

The blades appear to use the same connection.
