Had an amazing time training BJJ with these kids from the slums here in Brazil. Some of these kids are so poor it breaks your heart. But they are sweet and lovely in every way possible and mad respect to my jiu jitsu fraternity out here who invest in projects like this.
Was a totally spur of the moment decision to come out here and do this, but the next few months are already shaping up to be a life changing experience like I could never have imagined.

I bought some of that 16 million SHU capsaicin crystal powder that Nairn shared. I may share my experience if I like the footage enough, I will be recording myself trying it next week once I receive it.
I have a history of trying and collecting hot sauces and spices. Recently, I purchased Carolina Reaper, Ghost Pepper, and Scorpion Chili powder as the Ghost Pepper chips I find myself snacking on have become... I don't want to say boring, but it's all I have for super hot. Need to mix it up.
The chips I am referring to are pretty hot given they come from a grocery store...
- Oh, god.
I want these.
Now.Continuity - Not sure where you’re located, but I believe they are sold at Kroger stores in the US, Ralph’s, Dillon’s, etcimbecile
- I'm in Munich, so I'd have to have these imported. Not an ideal scenario. I'll have to see if any online shops in the EU carry them.Continuity
- They come out of Austin, TX in 3 flavors. I'm not seeing anything online, but I'm willing to help if you're interested in paying to receive shipped chips.imbecile
- Do you put this in your poo hole and have gay sex ?i_was
- Does that interest you? Or are you just attacking me and others’ interests out of frustration and hate? Thought so. *hugs*imbecile
- Not really, lol.i_was

Google was telling me I was running out of space in my google drive, largely used by gmail, and I needed to buy more space.
I went through my biggest emails and deleted them but it hardly made a dent, so I searched "label:unimportant is:unread" clicked the little "select all" box at the top of the list, and then the "select all conversations matching this search" prompt, and deleted.
gmail seemed to only be able to process batches of about 15,000 emails at a time to delete and then remove them permanently from the trash, so I had to do it a few times.
I cleared out 7 gigs of email garbage, and deleted no important emails.
- wow... i need to try thatdkoblesky
- i did not have very many matching that....but good to know! thanksdkoblesky
- "I went through my biggest emails" sounds so funny to me for some reasonnb
- How do you know label:unimportant is actually unimportant? Gmail hardly marks any of my emails as importantnb
- My gmail unread counter = 0. I keep on top, delete each day, no problemo with space. Also it's easier to see when I've got a new email.shapesalad
- that's why i also filtered 'unread' 'cause if i read them, they were probably important to me. if not, probably not. I also used "
-receipts"sarahfailin - nice! this belongs in
The Useful ThreadKrassy - Wtf? I thought google drive had unlimited space ! When did they start doing 15 gigs?cherub
- it's never been unlimited, just grows graduallysarahfailin

Anyone on here made a kids book?
Before xmas was looking for a book for my wee boy, had something in mind but to my surprise there's nothing like it that exists so I've been thinking about having a real fun side project and doing a book.
Was wondering if any QBNers had ever made a kids book, or even just a regular book and had it published?
The book would be one of these ones with physical textures glued in, like rubber dimples, rough textures, fur, glitter etc.
Making a regular book and pricing/pitching it would be easy but would be intereste3d in finding out how you'd go about pricing/pitching a book which had so many bespoke pieces added.I guess to keep costs down get it made in China ;)
- ha! I've been thinking the same, but instead of a book, a webpage and then a wee tablet for her to view it on.Nairn
- There's a really basic 'thing' I've not been able to find for her, and it's something that would benefit from 'multimedia' (lol).Nairn
- Only way for mine to be done would be as cards, or something. A bit faffy.Nairn
- My wife & I have made 2: https://abirdchronic… & https://wesharethisp… (ignore security alert; need to renew ssl). It's a long process...ideaist
- ...Have as few people involved as possible and keep it as simple as possible. Print is hard and has to be BUT man feeling the bound book in your hands...ideaist
- ...Feels like having a child (of which i have 2). 2 books, 2 kids.
: )ideaist - Not trying to discourage you at all, but as the parent reading the book with those glitter, fur, extras on the pages - I hated them. Kids always destroyed them!stoplying
- Considering how many kids books there are + fact everyone with a kid has a kids book idea = might be a cost reason why your idea isn't already published.shapesalad
- then again there's nothing to stop you making up a copy for yourself. binding is the trickier bit, but still eminently doable. look up sewing sections,hans_glib
- and drawn on covers.hans_glib
- Nice wee books ideaist. Book wouldnt be a one-off i'd want to get it published somehow. Shapesalad you are right lots of folk prob have book ideas...microkorg
- ..my book would work without the textures too, I just liked it/=. Wouldnt go too overboard with those features tho,. Have a few books that do it well.microkorg
- Just an idea for now, my wife reckons I should go for it, and she's not the kind of person that would just say that to humour me. lolmicrokorg
- Unless your numbers are on the higher end (3-500plus) China may not be worth it. There are some eastern eu printers worth a look!ben_

I have just finished the selection, retouch and layout for my 2022 calendar. Currently, I don't see much of a chance to photograph new motives this year due to the pandemic. So, just in case (and because I have no other work), I already created all sheets for 2022.
If things will get better, I can replace any sheet with new images. Weird times, though.
