If I turn into Weird Al then old man bun.
The least you can do is get them a few old refrigerator boxes, newspaper, and a 55 gallon drum so they can make it a proper bum establishment.
Both my older and younger brother have noticeable thinning, me, not so much. I tell my wife that I'm well positioned to rock a comb over when my time comes.
Going bald must be frustrating, I feel sorry for you guys.

Hell of a storm last night. Standing water in the low spot of the back yard postpones the yard work I did not accomplish yesterday. Running around doing kid/school stuff today.

Wtf kind of magic does this table saw posses that requires 220v?
i tried to make a deal with the devil... i'll go gray now if it means i don't go bald. devil thus far has been a no-show.Going bald must be frustrating, I feel sorry for you guys.
so skullet it is.
i'm not about to buy a new table saw... i'll just stick with not being a moron.
I always thought kickback was just as serious of an issue with table saws as finger removal was.
My grandfather removed nearly half his hand with a table saw. Probably shouldn't be using those thing when you are 80 years old.
There is a lot of shit that can go wrong with a table saw, even if you are incredibly careful. I'd gladly spend an extra $200 if it could help me count to 10 for the rest of my life.
They have a table saw with the stop mechanism in one of the shops at work. There are currently 5 "used" stop mechanisms and blades hanging on the wall.
When you look back, I'm surprised that we had table saws and were allowed to use them in high school shop class. Especially considering shop class at my particular high school was filled with a bunch of stoners, slackers or other people looking for an easy course. Our teacher only had one story to tell about a kid losing a finger and having to find it in the dust collector piping.
Dude, it is a pretty well set up camp at this rate. Portland does it a little different and it being fire season, I don't know that a burn barrel is needed just yet.
So are these:
gutter punks
Alcoholic Schizophrenics
Meth Heads
Heroin Addicts
or just poor bastards who don't have a home?
and the guy who thinks he's jesus
Friends visiting from out of town. They had to get Garbage plates. I passed. I know better then to eat them twice in a week....
I shouldn't have limited severe mental problems to alcoholic schizophrenics. I ain't no head doctor but the majority of people who seem to be homeless around here have some kind of untreated mental conditions.
Not trying to make light of the situation. Homelessness is really bad here. For every person that is clearly homeless there are probably 10 'normal' people who are just struggling to get by.
Two of my most challenging direct-reports are out on leave. Gonna be a low-stress window of time for me.
what's the chances they won't come back?
also happy Friday eve BTW
work from home tomorrow so an arborist can come give an estimate for some removals. i feel like i will use the opportunity to take a bike ride.
They seem to be millennial heroin fans (lots of these in Portland due to quality black tar). There may be additional players, I haven't done an interview.
Fun fact: Portland has the largest teen homeless population per capita in the country as a result of cheap black tar heroin.
They come for the heroin, they stay for the amenities.
<edit> While Portland has a large homeless base in general, this group and a bulk of the folks (outdoorsman?) along Naito Parkway are younger than 30.

hey no bad hair days, is a good thing.Going bald must be frustrating, I feel sorry for you guys.
Let me guess - you like to cook the ever-living shit out of your scrambled eggs? Crusty, brown skin on the bottom in places?
One of the boat shops I work with goes thru quite a few saw stops. Never a finger. Mostly carbon fiber inserts and wet/tacky glues that set them off. Sucks to waste an expensive table saw blade.
There is an official camp on Burnside, but it will be moving soon.
Just did the duck boat tour and are at Primanti's.
Being a proper tourist! Next up is the Carnegie Mellon Museum, and eventually a good dinner.

oakland used to be so cool. now it's just more cookie cutter gentrification from what i've heard.
My best guess..... Even though most were stoners, people "back in the day" were actually smarter and listened to instruction that involved the avoidance of great personal injury.
Also table saw back then we're built much much better. Parts fit together tighter, pieces didn't warp, blades stayed sharper..... Tools were just plain safer to use.
Biggest safety issue these days is you can buy a mediocre table saw for 150 bucks, and people use them well past there usable ratings. The two worst things I see, is people using crap blades that will still do the job but have lost there edge after ten cuts, and shit fitting table shoes. The shoes are fine at first, but are made sho shitty that they warp first time you remove and replace them, allowing your board to catch, turn, and then all hell breaks loose.....
