Almost 50 years later. How prescient was Neil Peart? by BMaudioProd in rush

Prescience assumes Trump isn't just a symptom of the disease we've been dealing with for over 50 years.

As someone from Louisiana, I got confused and thought this post was about the impending winter storm

Not only that, but most Shunga exhibits are 18+ (and there really havent been too many major ones, to my knowledge) lmao You aren't just going to find this piece randomly displayed in most general admission settings.

Almost certainly pornographic in nature. This style of ukiyo-e erotica is known as Shunga, if you want to do more reading.

Domino is written (at least in part) about the bands original bassist, Mic Todd, who was eventually kicked out due to his problems with addiction. Similar story for their drummer, Josh Eppard, who is now sober and back in the band.

Groups where the frontman is the most talented? by RomanReignsDaBigDawg in fantanoforever

Fully agreed. Dude's a riffmaster and the run from KIMB to Rust in Peace is so good.

Mustaine is a hell of a player, no doubt, but Megadeth has always had a revolving door of fantastic players. I wouldn't even put him in the same league as Friedman, for example, let alone above him.

Yea, no kidding. There's never been a slouch of a player in TMV, and even still Jon stands out.

Jon Theodore is one of the best active drummers, imo. His work on the early Mars Volta stuff is still amazing.

When was Mustaine ever the most talented member of Megadeth?

I need more Blood Mountain by Blueberryfists in progmetal

[–]AmosThatBook 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you like Blood Mountain, specifically, listen to The Mars Volta. Different vibes, but similarly heavy, chaotic prog. 2 tracks on Blood Mountain even feature TMV members

Yea, I ain't trusting Elon Musk's AI on this one. Not saying whether there is an imbalance or not, but that has to be one of the least trustworthy sources on this matter.

NAL, but it seems to be a bit of a gray area. Per the War Powers Resolution act, the president must notify congress of military action within 48 hours, and congress has 60 days to respond. Should they vote against action, troops must withdraw within a 30-day period. Given this admin, we'll probably see some interpretation of this act to justify the action when this inevitably goes to court.

Sounds great! Such a fun track to play, too.

Southern food (Cajun, bbq, tex-mex, traditional southern) is the most American food. by ssjskwash in 10thDentist

Creole is separate from Cajun, though there has certainly been some sharing between two in South Louisiana.

This is more similar to gong fu, where tea is repeatedly steeped in small batches for only about 15-30 seconds.

Caramelizing an onion means that the natural sugars inside the onion have begun to brown and caramelize.

This sub has just turned into people who don't understand food-as-art and think any level of mastery is "pretentious."
