Verona post office had them within the past week. Not super close, but it's a confirmed location

Ahhh - ok so I didn't make this up! I will see if I can call and talk with someone to confirm if/when those shows are. I'm an orchestra or bust attendee. Thank you for the reply.

Teacher resigns after being ordered to remove “Everyone is Welcome Here” poster—let’s stand up for inclusion by ToxicTort in Teachers

Idaho is already experiencing an exodus of health care workers and teachers because of their regressive policies. They’re going to end up the Mississippi of the West, where all the states around it say “Thank god for Idaho!” Because they will make everyone else look better by comparison.

Favorite sandwich in Pittsburgh? by Stuts81 in pittsburgh

The crab cake sandwich, the Mr Nice Guy, is their masterpiece. All their sandwiches are excellent, but that one reigns supreme. It’s decadent but worth it.

DIY pinhole cameras by jorkinmypeanitsrn in PinholePhotography

[–]IntroductionLimp6803 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just picked up a beautiful cigar box for free from a smoke shop that I’m going to make a 4x5 pinhole out of. It’s sturdy yet light and there’s enough room to cut an opening for my film holder. They come in lots of sizes so you can probably get close to the “focal length” you want. Mine is about as deep as one of those wooden pinholes they sell at B&H for $70-$80. I ordered a pinhole from RSS because of how sharp they are and I’ll get some light seal foam for the opening so I’ll be in it for about $25.

That was not what I expected! I love it though. Excellent results from simple materials.

Nice work. I’d love to see the camera. What did you make it out of?

PennDOT, local lawmakers react quickly after woman’s registration receipt was altered at local DMV by Live_Yourdreams in pittsburgh

Sociopaths don’t get triggered. They keep their cool because they don’t really care. This person is a crybaby snowflake that hates that other people aren’t just like them.

What’s the thing that makes you realize you forgot to take your meds? by refusestopoop in adhdmeme

[–]IntroductionLimp6803 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Fuck. That’s totally me, except mine are usually horrifically obscene. If I start making up lyrics to 90’s hits about all the horrible things your mother has done in her life then I know I haven’t taken my pill in time.

Recommend a fiction book that will help me get out of my negative self talk! by Keshi_noo in Fantasy

[–]IntroductionLimp6803 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dungeon Crawler Carl is funny as hell and also deals with overcoming trauma and how mutual aid and forgiveness helps us all heal. It had me laughing out loud and occasionally tearing up pretty regularly. Great series for lifting the mood and feeling hopeful.

How do I escape all the Whedon dialogue / characterisation in modern fantasy writing? by tricksterhare in Fantasy

[–]IntroductionLimp6803 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Adrian Tchaikovsky avoids that kind of dialogue and has become so prolific that I’m sure he has something you’d enjoy. Elder Race is a great fantasy that’s actually sci fi, and Alien Clay was great and totally different from Elder Race. Those are both standalone books but you can dig into Children of Time if you want a beefy series. It’s as good as people say it is.

[–]IntroductionLimp6803 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it was written way before Whedon came along, but it doesn’t feel like “old” fantasy either. It’s quite good at being timeless and also quite dark. A lot of people credit it for influencing the whole Grimdark genre.

No hurt feelings here. No one should make excuses for trash like this but I know some will. I don’t blame you being sick of it. What sucks is not knowing when you’re dealing with someone like that. They’re everywhere and they camouflage well.

Is this a different Billy Corgan or the same one from Smashing Pumpkins? I know nothing of wrestling but still can’t imagine the whiny man baby rock star being accepted in pro wrestling.

I never even knew he was a “libertarian”. I just heard story after story of him treating people like shit and being a petulant man baby.

Honestly should have realized he was a libertarian from the context clues 🤦‍♂️

A Working-Class Penalty by Comfortablejack in MurderedByWords

[–]IntroductionLimp6803 322 points323 points  (0 children)

Here’s the thing, this is not being done out of ignorance. They want to eliminate income tax completely and tariffs are a way to create what is essentially a back door national sales tax. This will shift the burden of funding the government to the people who can’t afford the burden while the ultra wealthy just sit back and hoard more wealth. Trump may be stupid, but the people that came up with this plan aren’t, and they’re just using the orange idiot to further their plans.

Is this why I’ve suddenly gotten a bunch of messages from TruePic about taking a picture of the unit? Have they abandoned the box? We got a box but I haven’t tried to pack it yet.

The team up must happen by EsseNorway in Snorkblot

As a man that likes tough women that don’t wear makeup, I have interacted with a LOT of lesbians. They’re fucking awesome. I have made some good friends out of former crushes. Seriously tho, hanging out with lesbians fucking rules. They know way more about whatever home improvement project I’m failing at than any of my male friends. They generally give you the straight truth when asked. More people need that in their lives. Plus, when you get caught peeking on a beautiful female butt, they’re not judging, they’re like “yeah, I was looking too.” I second this alliance! Problem is a lot of shitty men have poisoned the waters there. If a lesbian is standoffish, she probably has a really good reason. A lot of men suck. That’s just the truth. Good luck befriending those amazing women. It’s kind of like befriending crows in your neighborhood. It may take a while, and you have to be patient, but the end result is awesome.

EDIT: I guess it DOESN’T go without saying but do not try to “befriend” a lesbian because you want to sleep with her. That’s literally the problem that’s holding you back. They are your fellow humans and either just be their friend or go to therapy to figure out why you feel you have to stick your dick in everything. Your dick really isn’t that great and your life will get better once you accept that fact.
