@justinmfarrugia This is a quality version of stumbleupon. Nicely done.

[pyreneesrespecter @bleuapprentice]

@ChristineEM2000 Actually yes I do. To prevent the midwits from taking what you say seriously. It’s not because you’re in financial hardship that you should project your delusions onto others. I’m not saying the dinar is a hoax but everything you peddle has been wrong.

[pyreneesrespecter @bleuapprentice]

@Nighttrainsk808 No it’s not

@KJJTax Are we talking a revocation of election?

[pyreneesrespecter @bleuapprentice]

@ChristineEM2000 Yes they have, every summer around the same time.

@ChristineEM2000 How many times have we heard this exact same song?

This is how you do mockups

[Home Builder Tanner Alexander @TannerBuilds]

These full scale exterior mockups are one of my favorite things in homebuilding. They let neighbors, clients, and architects see exactly how the home will look before it’s built

@alitaylor Friendly reminder that sometimes 6” is too much, sorry you served that to me on a silver platter

Love this carport. Stone with an arch. Breezeway to the house.

How to be a pleb 101

[𝙷𝚒𝚌𝚔𝚖𝚊𝚗 @shagbark_hick]

An old friend of mine who has lived on the road continuously for over 45 years swears by the "over the roof" style racks.

He puts them over small, 4cyl 5-speed 4WD pickups (typically Rangers) and loads his long-term camping gear onto the top. The truck bed is for overnighting in between long-term encampments. He typically camps on BLM land for 14-day stints or moves between several tiny parcels of land he owns in OR, ND, and CA, where he intermittently works as a surveyor.

Under his bedding in the truck bed, he keeps rubber totes for his food, clothes, books, and gear. Keeps a cooler in one of them. He bolts a Wal-Mart propane stove to the tailgate and that's his kitchen. He does not keep a cab on it -- opts instead for a homemade tent fly setup under the rack with sewn-in bug netting.

This guy is old-school, master-class, been doing it for his whole life. Prefers this setup to anything else. He's tried step-vans, box vans, Sprinters, buses, mini-buses, truck campers, and tow behinds. He's convinced that the "over the roof rack" combined with the 4cyl truck is the absolute best you could do, and I'm inclined to agree.

Obivously if you've got more than 2 kids, you'll need to upgrade, but for a single person, couple, or small family, I'm convinced this is the way to do it for full-timers. Stealthy, low-key, small, good MPG, go anywhere, a real "do-it-all" setup.

This picture is not his truck, just an example of the type of rack he uses.

@Savage16May There’s a great solution to this NO ONE wants to talk about.

[pyreneesrespecter @bleuapprentice]

Everyone in the comments saying this is a fire hazard, you need air for combustion. This is mass timber(airtight), tightly packed straw (somewhat airtight) and a lime render (airtight but vapour permeable). Winning combo.

The future of housing!

Mid-rise, prefabricated timber frame with straw infill insulation, and a lime render.

Quick to build, and low carbon!

@jamesonhaslam That grey tile looks similar to the Durock, I think the beige square tile is the play here.

[pyreneesrespecter @bleuapprentice]

@jamesonhaslam It’s hip to be square
