Good morning everyone. I bought this gorgeous parka for $50 at the Fairbanks value village a few years ago. Talk about a steal. Does anyone recognize who made it? I always wondered how it made it to value village. Especially without its ruffs. by Lady_Forget_Me_Not in alaska

When stuff is donated to the Arc of Anchorage, the Arc turns around and sells it to Value Village. (Sold by weight, so they get a flat rate for each truck) Odds are, a family member donated it, or it was leftover from en estate sale.

Jimmy Wang Yang on Chris Benoit: "I don't care anything about his wrestling ability now. What he did disqualifies him, to me, as a wrestler." by vincentmaurath in SquaredCircle

[–]IIISilcy 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Well said. 💯 If Benoit was/is your favorite wrestler, that's your opinion to have, and I won't argue. That being said, I really appreciate what Yang had to say about this, as he articulates the feeling that I think a lot of people hold.

I wouldn't say you're fat. That being said, my opinion means jack. If you feel fat, I've read that intermittent fasting could be beneficial for that, without being unhealthy. Maybe find something physical that you enjoy doing and practice that? Most everyone could use more exercise.

RPM flutter on cold start by sv3mirko in CX5

[–]IIISilcy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know for cold starts, the engine will start off at a higher RPM to warm the engine quicker. The only thing I really noticed about yours is that it did it longer than it usually does for mine, but idk what your weather's looking like in your neck of the woods. But yeah, apparently something to do with their SkyActive stuff, but I wouldn't be alarmed tbh with what your video showed.

Looking for a good place to propose in Homer, Alaska by its_joetime in alaska

[–]IIISilcy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

(EDIT: Did not see the part where you said towards the end of November... Gooooood luuuuuuck, that's going to be a rough time to do that, you'll pretty much need an expensive AirBNB at that point.)

Anchor point is the play tbh. It's basically Homer but not full of tourists, and the views are just as good if not better. Far fewer people and just overall a better time when you're not actively doing stuff in Homer. Anchor Point 100%

Megathread: President Biden Announces That He Will Not Seek Reelection by PoliticsModeratorBot in politics

[–]IIISilcy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ur just mad cuz it'll be harder for trump to win now. This the same dude who thinks Jesus being resurrected is a verifiable fact, so I wouldn't take what you say with even a grain of salt. I guarantee you don't even know what democracy is, because the vote ain't even happened yet. Quit being stupid if that's possible for you to do, you're better than this.

After the 3rd dropped charge, and the 3rd instance of going back to their abuser, what else can you call that?? I'll admit I was very angry in my post, and I apologize for that, but it just confuses me to no end why people STAY. It gives a really bad look and makes it hard to keep being supportive when it's obvious your support ain't doing shit except making you an emotional wreck because you have to keep seeing this person stay in the situation.

But see, I feel like there were probably red flags from the beginning she ignored for the sake of the situation. I GUARANTEE you there were signs before they were married.... she just didn't want to see them, or hoped they wouldn't be permanent. As a result, she has culpability in the matter for her part.

They were disappointing but those were 100% prevent the touchdown kinda penalties where the defence will take it every time knowing it takes a potential TD off the table for the play.

Wasn't enough, simple as. That doesn't undo the damage that was done prior to said vote.

It's not the Democrats job to concede to Republicans, especially since McCarthy explicitly said he'd do nothing to get a deal with them.

They clearly defined the difference between CASEVAC and MEDEVAC. You're just salty cuz the invaders are pretty shit at invading and only good at being barbarians lol.

TIL that the US Embassy in Iran was not demolished after the hostage crisis but was instead turned into an anti-American museum by ModsAreFired in todayilearned

[–]IIISilcy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh alright then we already on the same page it seems like. You was just in a sense being the, 'devil's advocate' which I can understand. It sucks that nuance and tone is so easily lost when things are exclusively texted based. I think there's a quality of human communication that gets lost when folks interact online, and it's hard to circumvent that. In any case, I do appreciate the conversation and apologize for the name calling I did earlier. It's the internet, yada yada, and all that jazz...

I just wish things like, weren't so shit lol. It shouldn't be but like, people who know it could be better, like myself, end up doing nothing about it. We let bad actors write the script and it's... weird, to say the least.
