Done that before pretty much. It's not hard. Use a bowline or some other loop knot to make a pulley between the loop and the anchor point, then go back and forth until you run out of rope, then tie it off.
Sure, ratchet tie downs are easier and probably get a tighter hold, but rope works fine.
Not my current town, but the town I grew up in.
In short, volcanoes. The town in built next to a lake. The biggest lake in the country. The lake is a caldera crater, from one of the biggest volcanic eruptions ever that we know of. And fun fact, it's still slightly active, and several hundred years overdue.
I'd honestly rather not sell that sort of thing. The only reason I would is so I could spend my working hours making that and still be able to afford to eat. If that wasn't an issue, I'd rather give my work away for free.
Panama makes some sense, because of the loch system. Each ship that passes takes a lot of their drinking water, and they don't need to bomb ships to stop them passing.
I'd say both. Sci fi means there are elements that the story pretends could be possible, which includes time travel (probably not the tardis, but most other methods), space travel, and most alien races probably including one's like the daleks and cybermen. Fantasy means there are things that the story fully admits are not possible in our world, which covers time lord regeneration.
There's plenty of other things that are both sci fi and fantasy: star wars, warhammer 40k, and marvel or dc superheroes.
But he did eat a meal, a succulent Chinese meal
can you not have auth left and lib left viewpoints?
Yes, but actually no. The distinction is fundamentally unstable. If the left is constantly questioning power structures, it will inevitably turn to whatever structure the auth left comes up with.
what's wrong with the definition of left and right on the political compass?
It's specially economic left/right, which is almost always defined by taxation, government spending, and social welfare. While leftists usually say social welfare is a good thing, it's not changing the fundamentals of how capitalism works, which is the current dominant power structure that leftists are against.
do auth left not also take issue with the power capitalist businesses have?
Yes, but they usually put something just as bad in its place. You might have heard people saying that the USSR was "state capitalist rather than communist". This means that the workers and customers had just as little say in how things are run than they would under capitalists, only is was directly with the state rather than individual business owners.

It comes from the French revolution, when the people who wanted a better king sat on the right side of the debate room, and people who wanted to get rid of the king sat on the left. From my understanding, right wing is about incremental improvement on what currently exists (optimistically, current right wing isn't even about this), while left wing is about questioning what exists and redesigning it from the ground up.
Only on the political compass, which uses a definition of left vs right that a lot of leftists disagree with. Really, the entire history of "left wing" politics has been about questioning and dismantling authority. The terms "left wing" and "right wing" come from the French revolution, when the people in favour of simply reforming the monarchy sat on the right side of the room, while the people who wanted to fully dismantling the monarchy sat on the left. A lot of more modern leftist thought is about questioning the power that capitalist businesses have.
You cannot imagine my relief at seeing this
A. A "good rich person" is fundamentally unstable. When push comes to shove, they will either remain good or remain rich, not both.
B. Good people have principles, so they're less likely to be willing to bribe public officials, even if they're doing something good with it.
