Only problem is I won’t have another cord to move tomorrow.

I started this yesterday and this morning my back was tight.

I made a ham and egg breakfast burrito, took 800mg of ibuprofen and 35mg prednisone and got in a rhythm with t.

I only really feel bad if I stop moving too much.

Also that

Yeah, my heirloom pigs had thick lard layers. Kept me in deep frying grease for a year.

This is about 4.5’ tall, 3’ wide, and 8’ long with a slope out to 10’, minus five or six logs I split down for kindling.

Maybe a bit less than a cord but I neglected a banana for scale.

If you do get pigs seek out an heirloom breed. I had Berkshires and not only could I sell the meat at a premium, it was so tender and marbled it was like making ham out of veal.

I appreciate the warning, and learned that lesson a couple years ago.

This is on a concrete pad that used to have a hot tub, surrounded by pressure treated wood and about 20’ from the house, and it was okay last year.

I wish I could do this every day. I used to have about five acres to maintain, along with pigs and chickens, and I was in the best health of my life, physically and mentally.

Gyms don’t give me the satisfaction of a grueling task that can be completed.

Ooo, ominous

It was mostly split when I got it, but I split a few of the smaller, drier logs for kindling by hand.

I’ve got this great maul that’s basically a solid steel wedge welded to the end of a driveshaft.

It’s in about a 10’ space and doesn’t include some logs I split for kindling

I’d rather explore the woods

The stinkiness is humans over a certain density threshold. I’ve smelled it in Paris and London and Boston and Chicago and Copenhagen.

Humans smell, and in attempting to cover up the smell they make worse smells.

It’s my first night here and I already miss seeing what few stars I could see from home.

I can’t wait till I can properly fuck off to the middle of nowhere and see a real sky.

I prefer cities without people.

None of that is anything I haven’t heard before, and it still makes no sense to me.

I just wish I didn’t have to be here for stuff. It’s like how every business and government is run by type-A try-hards who schedule meetings at ungodly hours like 9am.

Sounds like you need a project. Start restoring that old farm equipment.

EEEEYYYYY FUCKIN HOT DOG BIG APPLE YANKEES OVAHEAH

I hate almost everything about cities. And New York has the most city shit of any city.

So it might be the best city in the world but that’s not something to brag about IMHO
