inThat budget air fryer was a total waste of 80 bucks
Respectfully, I gotta disagree a little here. Most name brand dryers from the big stores use the same Chinese parts as the cheap off brands anyway. Paying double for the same thermal fuse inside a different colored box doesn't make much sense to me. The real trick is just checking the cord gauge and plug rating regardless of the name on it. A $400 dryer that's easy to fix yourself beats a $1200 one you have to wait a week for a repair guy on. Warranties are only as good as the paperwork you keep and the time you're willing to spend on hold.

inChat with a machinist made me rethink my tool storage
Did you catch that thread on Garage Journal where a guy sorted his drill bits by the project they were for?

inI finally get why people rag on Jim Morrison's poetry
Gotta push back a little on flores.emma's point though. Morrison was definitely drunk and high a lot, but guys like Burroughs and Ginsberg were too and nobody calls their work shallow. The real issue is that Jim's poetry is mostly just okay, it's not that it was written while wasted. Some of those lyrics are legit decent when you strip away the rock god image, like "The Soft Parade" has some genuinely interesting imagery if you actually sit with it. But yeah, half of it is definitely just stoner rambling that sounds profound at 2am.
