I’ve never heard of anyone not just setting the deck depth, putting the throttling to max, engaging the blades and proceeding to mow. Nothing about what you said seems at all like anything anyone realistically cares or worries about. Whether a push mower, small riding mower, zero turn, or sub compact tractor; it’s all essentially the same. Nobody is changing blades out by the season. Someone that cares will probably sharpen their blades at the end of the mowing season but that takes about as much learning as washing the dishes. It was like reading a cosplay about lawn mowing from someone that has never mowed before.

I watched citizen Kane and it was so bad. Why do people like it?
My fallback when I decided being a marine mechanic wasn’t for me was a garbage collector. Hard work but paid well compared to the world view I had. The garbage men I knew always seemed hard working, friendly, and took pride in their job. I ended up with many blessings in my life that resulted in a more comfortable life than that would have been. Maybe I glamorized the job because it seems like a respectable career choice to me to go into for folks that higher education isn’t a good fit for. It’s a shame that their isn’t broadly viable ways for differing individuals to positively contribute to society in a functionally effective way to sustain their life and aspirations. As a hiring manager I have to set salaries for positions within my allotted budget and have employees making between $85k and $200k so I understand differences in skills, educations, experience necessitate different salary rates to compel qualified candidates. At the same time we are failing if there are folks that don’t know when their next meal will be or where they are going to be sleeping. It’s inexcusable and the people that should have the most compassion and empathy seem to be so easily swayed to defend the ruling class of degenerate narcissists.
This exit or death!
Never heard of it but I’m going in, thanks to you both for the authentic recommendation.
Thank you! Watching episode 1 now!
What’s the bottom imagine from?
I appreciate the insight and time you have taken to respond. Also your understanding. I have a really difficult time processing the situation. It does feel very cult like and matter of fact. I don’t understand how someone that seems so good can know something so bad is going on, who is so obviously able to recognize the bad in other related areas, and blindly vehemently support them unquestionably. He’s intelligent and successful…yet so lost, the most caring and compassionate person I know; it can’t be ok.
He is evangelical Christian yes. I don’t have much exposure to religion. I have gone to his church a couple times when he has asked me to in the decade or so we’ve been friends. I’m in my forties. I’ve never felt pressured but I also keep my religion or lack of to myself. I just never really understood the position on Israel and it really stuck out to me. Even though he will freely admit how crazy and hateful things are out of the MAGA crowd, I get the feeling anytime the topic gets close to coming up with me he fends it off by essentially communicating to me that he has unwavering and unquestioned support of Israel and I haven’t been willing to push it since he is otherwise a great person in my life that has helped me through a number of difficulties.
I am not religious so I don’t know the details but I have a friend who is very religious and refuses to vote for Trump again. He hates Harris but won’t give me a reason. When I have brought up the Israel stuff he immediately jumps to a very, holy land, must support and defend at any cost mentality. He would never vote Democrat but it makes me wonder how pervasive this weird fairy tale attachment exists throughout the voting base.
“riding mower…still requires a lot of physical labor” rofl
This post caught me off guard when I first read it, I had to scroll up and see if it was the same person that wrote all that ridiculous shit nobody actually does while mowing and sure enough it was. Using anything other than a push mower doesn’t require a lot of physical labor, that’s just absurd. The most physical labor I’ve ever exerted other than a push mower was probably my tractor but that’s just because it’s old as shit and doesn’t have a hydrostatic transmission.
