cognitive dissonance on legs

置頂

hire me to diagnose or fix your: - cars & trucks (incl heavy trucks) - motorcycles (even super old ones) - metalworking machinery i care about fixing things well, and about avoiding waste. i'll make as little waste as i can, reusing as many existing parts/materials as possible.

so if we try to get jobs for you in the @elkenmist neighborhood or in Portland around @BridgeSpacePdx what should we be looking for? We have some other friends who want to get a pop up teaching repair clinic around Portland

ok i was feeling not super convinced this piece was any good and then someone told me it feels like the first thing of mine they've read that could be the start of a book and now i'm feeling a lil better about it :) def the longest thing i've ever written by FAR

i finally (mostly) finished a piece about building community spaces that i started almost a year ago, when highside closed and i was thinking about what i learned & what i’d do different next time jesseevers.com/holding-commun…



ran into a funny issue with this Mercedes manual from the late 60s…they forgot to translate some things from german the valves are marked A and E — i’d expect them to be marked I and E (intake and exhaust), so i translated those words into german and got my answer lol
