#habitat for humanity

[retropopcult]

A sad farewell to President Jimmy Carter who passed away at the age of 100. He is the first US president to become a centenarian.

James Earl Carter Jr. (October 1, 1924 – December 29, 2024) was an American politician and humanitarian who served as the 39th president of the United States from 1977 to 1981 (shown above in the Oval Office in 1978). A Democrat, he is the longest-lived president in U.S. history and since leaving office won the Nobel Peace Prize in 2002 for his peace-keeping negotiations and humanitarian work.

Another great one from Mike Luckovich.

And that's what powered the vision and creation of Habitat for Humanity back in 1976.

The nonprofit Christian organization brings families, volunteers and resources together to build and renovate affordable housing.

Donate to Habitat for Humanity in honor of President Carter.

I just made a donation to my local Habitat for Humanity in honor of President Jimmy Carter, who gave a week of his time to Habitat build projects starting in 1984.

No kind gesture, however small, is unimportant.

Mike Luckovich has the best talent for memorials for famous people. Jimmy Carter was so incredibly special, he made three (that I have found so far).

got tired of only having one hammer that belonged to the family and having to move it between the house and the garage whenever I needed it, and today I was in the Habitat For Humanity Re-Store, and so... got my very own personal hammer for $7. Behold, my hammer

Seven bucks was an absolute steal, because this thing is in great condition. Doesn't seem to have been used much, still has bits of sticker on it from the hardware store. Grip is flawless, if a bit grimy. Head is on there rock solid, just a lil rust I can sand right off. While she's (I'm gendering my hammer lol, maybe I should name her) perfectly functional as-is, I think I'll give her a lil spa day when I have some free time. Gonna de-rust her head just for the cosmetic aspect of it... yeah, the aged look is pretty nice, ngl, but at the same time I think she deserves a treat. Also gonna clean up her grip, get that sticker residue off her handle, bring her up to 100% condition. And she's really similar to the standard family hammer, so I think I'll mark her as mine somehow... customization... Fuck, I'm anthropomorphising my hammer and I've only had it for a few hours. Once I name her it's all gonna be over.
