inJust realized reading comics issue by issue beats waiting for the trade
Reading issue by issue also keeps you talking to other people at the shop between drops, which trades kill since you finish in a night and have nothing to say. Half the fun of Thor was arguing with the guy behind the counter about where the story was headed. Monthly books turn reading into a shared thing again instead of a solo binge.

inSpent $85 on a shower filter and my hair is a totally different thing now
Man, Phoenix water is brutal, that chalky film is real. You're not imagining it, hard water messes with your hair and strips color faster. Smart move grabbing the filter.

inVent: I quit using my coping saw on inside corners and my trim work got sloppier, not better
Man, I gotta disagree on blaming the jigsaw, a cheap blade with too many teeth per inch is what makes it wander. Grab a scroll blade or a reverse-tooth jigsaw blade and slow your feed down, that cope line will come out clean.

inQuestion about my chain after 3 weeks of rain commuting in Portland
Went through the same thing last winter and it flipped my whole view on wet lube. I used to be a dry lube guy all year because I hated how wet stuff turned into black sludge on the chain and pulled in grit. Then we got two solid weeks of rain and my drivetrain sounded like it was chewing gravel, so I finally caved and bought a cheap bottle of wet lube like you did. Within a few rides it went quiet and stayed quiet, even after back to back rainy days. The black gunk is real but I just wipe the chain down after wet rides and it never gets bad. Now I keep dry lube for summer and wet lube for the rainy months and stop trying to make one product do both jobs.
