so ive been watching a lot of movies lately and bit worried about running out of them at the pace i've been going. i need to start rationing; shouldn't have gone as hard as I did initially at all. im reading through the romance of the three kingdoms right now. but its only 500 pages long and well thats not going to last either. I've been video game free for almost a full week now and am running out of things to do. i keep catching myself opening something out of habit but i always slam it back closed before anything loads. while better than video games, books and movies are just more hollow time sinks. I could go and do more excerise and stretches , so what. im really close to being able to do the splits again for the first time in 10 years. it just doesn't matter without somebody to share with, you know. when I was a kid and could do the splits everybody would harass me over it. saying it was proof I had no balls. when you're doing the splits you're also very vulnerable so asking me to do the splits and then kicking me in the crotch was really popular. I've got some fruit trees in nearby yards I can pick from, apples and plums, but that'll only last few another week or two when the frost comes. I'm going to pre-chop some vegetables I think too, onion and carrots so I can cook something nice over the weekend.

food court bailiff posted:if you want to do easy paintings that actually look nice go with oils and watch some bob ross, unironically I'd start small, maybe like the 3 primary colors and then white and mix everything myself. I have no idea anything about what kind of paper you need, brush types, densities. Is there any sort of intro guide to painting Still not sure where you'd actually buy this stuff. Michaels?

there's a michaels right by me so I'll try that tomorrow. they advertise themselves as arts/crafts, never been inside though. I have a lot of paper plates I need to use so those should be good for color mixing. looks like bob ross has a some sort of straight edge paint scraper thing he likes so I'll get one of those too. does the type of brush material matter?

food court bailiff posted:apples don’t freeze but you can refrigerate them almost indefinitely in a plastic bag i thought this worked by alternating importing apples and other seasonal fruit from the north vs southern hemisphere at varying latitudes so its always in season somewhere.

ante posted:THat's the case for most things, but not apples. Apples can last for like a year in certain conditions, it's magical I'm surprised this scale of mass and long term energy-intensive refrigeration is economically better than the follow the season model of other fruits. Produce has like, a 3% profit margin. Neat though.
