Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link.

It would have to be better attached to its foundations than your average trailer park trailer.
I was thinking about that. 3/8x10 rebar?
That is more than I would be able to tell you, sorry. I know a little about a lot of things.
No worries. I've was construction-adjacent as a youngster, maybe I need to locate and converse with some general contractors I worked with. Thanks anyway.
Use all-thread set in drilled holes with epoxy if you didn’t plan for that with a slab
Thanks so much! I'm just in the bright idea stages, looking for a plan, but you gave me a great idea, maybe for lift.
Steel frame construction with tstud sub structure and full insulation envelope clad in brick.
Or do a monolithic dome tiny house.
Both would be sturdy as hell and very energy efficient, which addresses climate change better than insulating a Home Depot shed.
Tiny dome home looks great, but I'm not sure how doing it right would work with my realistic budget within a realistic time frame, since we're in a weather race. For that cost, I could just move and get small place in a more climate-friendly area. The issue is my elderly parent is about 45 minutes away with good traffic flow and my child, partner and their business about an hour, and their partner's parents, siblings and children. My child has been settled for about eight years with their significant other so I don't look for it to be realistic to expect the whole family and family business to uproot and move, unless the realities of climate change become untenable, and that's certainly a possibility. But if that timeline is shorter than we imagine, that may well occur. Thank you so much for a great idea, and for reminding me to have a plan B and C.
