ill

The head is Iowa though?

it’s heavy wet snow that is the absolute fucker

Yeah there’s a reason they call that “heart attack snow”

Major Major Major Major was presumably a private at some point, so I’d say yes!

Fairy in a prairie?

This makes sense at first glance but I have never heard anyone do this ever, and it seems like it might make the situation feel even more awkward.

I’m rooting for George Santos, because sweet mercy that would be so goddamn funny

Living in Quebec this is my own private little social anxiety nightmare when meeting new people. You want to talk about pronouns? This is the real pronouns issue. Do I go with tu and seem overly familiar? Do I go with vous and seem standoffish? Does it depend on age? Degrees of separation? Station in life? Nnnnnnnnnngggggghhhh

“The person who does these comics” is in fact a man.

The change is coming for you guys as well. I’ve travelled to Colombia on a regular basis over the past 20 years or so, and transmisión mecánica has gone from nearly ubiquitous to almost exclusively an econobox option. Maybe performance cars as well I guess? Wouldn’t know about those

Never heard of Horsey Sauce before. Is it, ummmmm. Is it, y’know, white and viscous?

No contest.

The diagram I originally referred to was on the packaging for the tubes I bought (GE Direct Wire 96" T8), but it’s basically this:

In my case (double-ended lamps, 6 ballast wires, right side of the diagram above) the fuse goes between the hot and the red/blue wires leading to the sockets. I’ve actually got two of them since the fixture has 4 tubes in it. Hope this helps!

They don’t care if it’s AC or DC

I figured this was most likely the case, glad to have it confirmed. I just wanted to err on the side of caution

Yeah, I thought about automotive fuses but I wasn’t 100% sure whether they’d be suitable for AC power. These ones definitely are

The two white plastic parts are the fuse holders. From what I’ve read, the fuses are a safeguard against someone accidentally replacing one of the LED tubes with a fluorescent one. Putting a fluorescent light directly on mains power with no ballast could be pretty dangerous

Sounds quite similar to Nick Cave’s letter on the topic, read here by Stephen Fry. (anyone feel free to reply with a piped link, for some reason it’s never worked for me)

Ok but what was it meant to be? Ejecting?

Read this as “sharter edition” and I think it still works

Accessory fruit?? What the hell is that?! What am I?!

Well fuck that
