How does goose egg taste in comparison to chicken eggs?

I mean, of the possible sponsors out there, Ground News is pretty alright. I don’t particularly need another subscription, but it seems like a valuable enough service

Haha no, I just copied and pasted straight from Wikipedia, and it copied the hyper links too

I work in commercial and institutional building energy efficiency. I notice myself paying way more attention to the infrastructure that normally fades into the background. Stuff like “I wonder how big the transformer for this building is?” or “Ooh, that’s a hefty cooling tower, I wonder how much chilled water they use?”

No problem, I hope you like it!

Maybe give Cool People Who Did Cool Stuff a try! It’s not a trans-specific podcast, although the host, Margaret Killjoy, is a trans woman. She covers the broad history of good people who fought back against the bad stuff in the world. For example, this week’s episodes were about lesbian mutual aid during the AIDS crisis, and this episode from a while back is about “Great Trancestors of History”. It’s one of my favorite shows, I highly recommend it :)

Do you own a sewing tape measure/ruler?

If you don’t, they’re pretty cheap (and worth it, IMO), but you can achieve the same thing with some string and a normal tape measure.

Your waist measurement will be roughly the narrowest part of your torso (kind of near your belly button), and your hip measurement will be the widest part of your torso (roughly at the top of your hip bones). Here’s an article that might be helpful!

Is there a size guide where you can see what measurements correspond to which sizes? That’s how I judged the size to pick mine - I went by the closest waist size/measurement, and it fits pretty well. There may be better methods out there though that I’m just not aware of yet

It does! Skirts are so fun ☺️

 
 
 
 

I have recently become more aware of and generally interested in electronics and amateur radio, and it got me thinking. What advantage, if any, would there be to having amateur radio experience, over a simple disaster crank radio/flashlight, in the event of a major natural disaster or some other emergency that leads to a longer delay in power being restored? For the sake of argument, let’s assume you have a generator or battery bank to supply your own electricity.
