People tweeting stuff. We allow tweets from anyone.
RULES:
- Mark NSFW content.
- No doxxing people.
- Must be a pic of the tweet or similar. No direct links to the tweet.
- No international politcs
- Be excellent to each other.
- Provide an archived link to the tweet (or similar) being shown if it's a major celebrity, figure or any politician. If you replace the "x" at their site with xcancel (so it beomes xcancel.com), and you're not on mobile, it will save video. https://web.archive.org/save is another great option. Archive.is is no longer recommended because they remove/alter content.

the upkeep alone - painting scraping replacing the anode every fuckin year.... it's a fuckton of work for a 'fun hobby'
The costs involved with boats is why I have a kayak instead.
I have two boat friends. One has a 20' sailboat, it's just under yacht size. The other has a dingy he built in his garage. The dingy gets far more use.
I do wish I had storage nearer the sea for it though. It's about 20-30 min walk from where we live now and need to get it moved to our new house at some point. Don't really have a suitable spot for it to go yet. Or it would be a pain to get in/out.
time to make a friend on the beach you can stash it with :D
I have wondered if there are any garages nearby. Not usually the cheapest of options though, and massively oversized for what you need to store a single kayak. Low 5 figures and may not even be in a good location.
