tech diy question, boosts welcome 

People who are building fun things to ride on during events: do you have any tips on where to get started?

After seeing people have tons of fun with home built vehicles at #gpn20 I really want to make my own.

I already have a rough design planned out but I'm wondering where I could source the parts cheaply.
I've seen lots of vehicles built from these "hoverboard" things but those still seem a bit expensive, at least on eBay.

In the US, companies are under no obligation to honor any request that they stop sending you physical mail. Send them as many requests in as varied a format as you like; they can ignore each and every one.

EXCEPT. If you say "please stop, this mailing made me horny", they are required by federal law to immediately block your address. It doesn't have to be honest or sincere; just saying "your ad turned me on, and I don't like it" is enough. 🌈⭐️

I kind of don't like this thing that happens in many sitcoms where characters are complete assholes to each other and prank each other and shout at each other 90% of the time and then they shoehorn in stone heartfelt moments where they get all lovey dovey with each other and you're supposed to get the impression that actually, they really loved each other all this time

"The behavior of the police at Robb Elementary is only shocking if you are committed to a mythic notion of what policing entails. The “thin blue line” does not separate society from chaos. It instead separates those empowered by the state to uphold racial capitalism with violence... In the face of centuries of evidence exposing what the work of policing actually entails - and does not entail - the true ideologues are those committed to policing as a solution."
