I have noticed this bottleneck too, and wondered if there might be some way to build a website or app to help facilitate people trading labor, but I have no clue about the feasibility or where to even start. I wear thinking something that enabled people to match skills with needs, to act as a portfolio for samples of their work, to list local endorsements or mutual connections for some level of trust, but that sounds pretty daunting.

I didn't realize how similar they were to pawpaws! That's so interesting, thank you for this picture.

Rumor has it that our thoughts fill an aching void in his soul that can otherwise only be filled with apartheid emeralds or NFTs, but science has yet to find a way to test this hypothesis.

idk how else to express my appreciation for this except to tell you that I gazed upon it with love and admiration for a good minute, long enough that I made my own self uncomfortable with how happy this goofy picture made me.

I'm 41f (going on 13 at times), and this is why my husband hates(loves) having me around the shop - all the mechanical everything is full of euphemisms and innuendo. "mating surfaces" 😂

trying so hard to politely save this to show my husband in the morning, but I'm about to wake him up giggling over how much he's going to love it, this is so silly

idk if you made this or are just reposting to share, but either way: thank you, I love it!
