@soleil_colza_ does it count if I pin blender to make it look like I’ve opened it in the past month

Vanposting day 8: Kilmat on another door and some of the passenger foot area. Hoping this will be faster on the floor since less cutting and shaping. Also got another new toy i cant afford

Vanposting day 7: mostly just research. For insulation I’m going to do wool. It has the best thermal, moisture and sound properties, plus it’s basically the only natural option. It’s the most expensive but I’ve already spent so much that the % difference is pretty small. boy math

Street parking in Hawthorne is like one of those Fortnite concerts where you need to be online at the exact right time (street sweeping)

@zackR154 I bet that critical safety feature that you’d want to turn off during highway driving was buried in 6 layers of touchscreen

vanposting day 4: used a broom to get all the dust off the van, got rust treatment and caulk, fixed up a few spots. Drove around the block since I had been parked >72 hours, in those 2 minutes someone took my spot so I proceeded to spend an hour searching, parked a mile away 🤡

Past 2 years I’ve been in LA, there’s been all these signs about “safe and sane” fireworks. Then the 4th comes and NOBODY obeys, NOTHING is safe or sane, and it’s a complete war zone. Makes me so happy 🙂‍↕️🎇 happy 4th everyone

vanposting until I end my apartment lease day 3

Pulled seats and most of the carpet/bottom trim in front. so many random wires that don’t matter, the original builders did NOT know how to delete the part

Installed new driver seat, doesn’t matter for cleaning if it’s screwed in

[iv @iv_hacks]

@shivanijpatel me too, the intrusive thoughts won

vanposting until my sussy van isn’t sussy day 2

Went to the junkyard, got two seats. Will post pics once they’re clean and installed

Also got door panels. Crucially they’re all plastic which means I can clean them

Kilmat sound dampening pads on rear doors

unscrewed more stuff
