Took a giant rock to my windshield driving up to see my parents yesterday. Massive crack. It’s a Jeep thing, you wouldn’t understand.

I like the title.

E30 is done, waiting for the exhaust sealant to dry before I take it for a drive.

I was heading on I95 in the middle of no where between Death Valley and Vegas and there was a 5 mile portion where they decided to not pave the highway. It was horrendous I was going on the shoulder and the oncoming trucks were pelting everyone with countless rocks. It was awful and it made me wish I got a film on my entire front end.

:(

I met a guitar player from Africa today (not just a black dude, he actually moved to the US a couple of years ago), looks like I might have a rhythm guitarist nailed down already and I wasn't even looking for bandmates yet... living in civilization is fucking nice.

Time to ask for the Gorilla glass.
I saw they offer that as an oem replacement. My old neighbor owns a windshield replacement company, so gonna see what he can hook me up with.

Got a refeed last night :fuckyeah: first “cheat” meal (I was still told what and how much to eat, so it was still a planned meal) in 10 weeks. Two double cheeseburgers and a thing of fries. I got to choose where it came from, so I went with Shake Shack since they have high quality ingredients and my body digests those potato buns better than normal wheat buns that most other places use. It was actually kind of hard to eat the second burger since I haven’t had a large meal like that in a while :lol: Feeling good this morning.

Saturday afternoon we put our fire pit on the roof of the house (which is just effectively a concrete patio), and lit a fire. Spent all day cutting downed trees, stacking wood, and overall cleanup. I was pretty tired, so we decided to have a little camp fire. Got the fire somewhat going, but it was struggling. Wife started to get cold and went inside. I decided to give the fire a little more life and watch the stars emerge. We're pretty far from civilization, so our star show is pretty epic, especially from the roof of the upper level of the house. I found a really dry chunk of oak in our wood pile, dropped it on and within 5 minutes the fire was roaring. :nice:

I had my ganja vape, and started puffing. And puffing. And puffing. Right as it started to get dark enough for the stars to show themselves, I was in a different dimension. I looked up and noticed a moving satellite, which in itself isn't an odd occurrence, but then noticed another, then another. I leaned back in my camp chair and noticed they were following each other. I started to :mindblown: as the string of satellites kept coming...I swear I saw 100 pass by over the course of 15 minutes (it was probably just 20 over a few minutes). I couldn't tell if I was actually seeing what I was seeing, and I was completely on my own. My mind raced from aliens to .gov control to starlink (which I actually dismissed in my brain because why the hell would there be starlink satellites over northern MI). I was so awestruck, it didn't even occur to me to call the wife out to verify.

They stopped and the sky got progressively darker. An hour or so later, as the milky way started to emerge, my high was wearing off and the fire was dying down. I went inside and told the wife about what I saw and all she said was "how high are you?" I pleaded with her that it was real, but she just :yeahok: and got me a glass of ice water. Yesterday, I found this article about Starlink and showed it to her. Then she got mad that I didn't call her out to watch with me. :lolol: :|

Most of starlink mission is to be above areas that aren’t benefited by good telecom/network infrastructure.

The Starlink "mission" is :bs: People in "underserved" areas aren't rich enough to buy the $500 receiver then pay $100/mo for internet service. People who can afford that live in areas with strong internet offering.

I'm hoping for a portable option so I can go work in the middle of the desert.
