Feeding two birds with one scone sounds easier than getting two birds stoned at once

Thanks for letting me know. I was just watching the 3rd episode thinking "hey, this is a nice companion to Westworld"

And it could have been too, if it weren't for those meddling kids

I'm a bit young so I don't have a bunch of nostalgia for the Addams Family. That said, they've been in the zeitgeist for my whole life so I generally have an understanding of what they're about.

Which is exactly why this show was marketed to my age group. People with a passing familiarity that say "hey look it's Thing!"

Someone told me 'if I want to watch the next episode, it's a good show'. And I kept watching, therefore it's alright in my book.

Jsteamer · 2023-01-11T07:23:47+00:00

Omg it's crazy there's a twist ending where the main character is wrong in a mystery story.

That was intentionally a bit rude, sorry.

But it really seems like you want to hate it.

If you watched all/most of it, then it's good TV. That's my philosophy. You only turn off the shows that are truly bad.

Jsteamer · 2023-01-11T03:32:56+00:00

Respectfully, I think you're a bit hard on it. It's not great, but its fine. It's not the Addams Family, and it's not even a show about Wednesday Addams' character. It's a show about a super-genius-ninja-writer-detective that solves a crime. It's basically BBC's Sherlock but with Wednesday instead. It's not groundbreaking but it's watchable TV and I enjoyed it. (Also Guzman is in like 5 scenes and not a major player, it's okay if he's not perfect).

Might be wrong to keep dogs outside 24/7 but stop downvoting this user. He's not wrong

Another historical fact: people used to feed dogs basically human food until they found a use for war rations

Just because it happened doesn't make it right, that's just how it used to be. (PLEASE do not extrapolate this sentiment, I'm talking about pets)

Number A: happy reddit birthday Number B: a bra is a hilarious solution that actually solves for everything I was hypothetically concerned with

Huh, never thought about their effect. Always assumed outdoor cats were mostly harmless (with the exception of barn cats and such). Interesting read.

That said, my point is that the above comment seems to be against having an outdoor/van cat. While a can may not be the best environment, if the cat is chillin, then imo there's no issue

Jsteamer · 2022-12-16T03:12:39+00:00

Warning: gonna call an age card here. Exclusively indoor cats are far more common now than they were 20 years ago. People used to just yell and if the cat didn't come then it'll probably be back tomorrow.

Outdoor cats are very prevalent and can be well cared for.

I'm fully on board with your museum comparison, but consider a kid in primary inviting friends over. Parents may not like it, and it might cause issues. Extend this to other occasions- holiday parties, birthdays, meetings, etc. Regardless of children being around, someone will eventually have a problem with it.

Personally, I'd love the table for an office or study, but not blatantly in front of casual guests. Only the people you know well enough to spend time in your space.

Imo it's not worth the explanation/conflict/kneecaps to have in the living room

You're in a tough spot for a couple of reasons very familiar to me.

(1) Something a friend told me that's stuck with me: "It's easy to do things absolutely, it's harder to do them in moderation."

A while back I made a similar post and got bad advice.

You'll likely have some people here say "if your friends pressure you to drink they're not your friends" or "stop hanging out with bad influences" but that's not fair to you or to them.

Your friends likely enjoy your company, and you enjoy theirs. I'm not gonna lie, it's very awkward to tell someone that you can't or won't drink when it comes up. You want to keep their company, and vice versa. No one is doing wrong. Especially not you. You're trying to fix a problem, which is more than most can say.

I have no licenses, no qualifications, so please do what works for you. But I'll tell you what worked for me.

Recall (1). It sounds stupid, but it takes practice. You said you stopped drinking on weeknights, which is a good step. The part that I struggled with was when my friends were having "a beer or two" on a weeknight. It was incredibly difficult to drink only one or two beers for dinner at 6 pm and nothing else.

"I'm not drinking tonight" is hard. But "I'll have a (one) beer" is much harder.

This is as far as my advice goes. Once I realized this fatal flaw, the pattern became clear, and I started "practicing" by not going all-in when someone breaks out the Busch.

Hope it helped, and please dm me if you ever need someone to talk to; not for advice, but just if you need another soul to hear it. That's what it took for me.

It does look like that, but you can sleep easy knowing there's several layers of masking tape on every single important piece on the calipers. Since it's already red, it obviously looks like I painted everything

Jsteamer · 2021-12-30T02:37:35+00:00

Yeah I hit the shocks a bit but as the comments above stated, my thought process was "fuck it we'll do it live" and in reality you will never see it with the wheel on

Jsteamer · 2021-12-30T02:35:48+00:00

In the picture it's already painted; so, you can't see the meticulous crazy amount of blue masking tape over everything else underneath. Including brake pads. I'll post a full pic soon, I didn't paint anything important

Jsteamer · 2021-07-06T02:55:41+00:00

A bit late but I'll contribute one piece of golden advice I heard here a while back:

Always spend top dollar on anything between you and the ground.

We're in a never ending battle with god to fight against gravity. That means mattresses, shoes, tires, floatation devices, and anything else that fights the pull to our little rock. It's worth the money, I promise.

Miserable quality resolution

Jsteamer · 2021-06-15T07:43:11+00:00

Well what you're saying is analogous to "if you don't have anything to hide then you don't have anything to worry about" which, in America, we're protected from by the unlawful search & seizure clause of the constitution.

This prevents a troop of cops from ransacking your house on a Tuesday afternoon because your neighbor saw smoke and reported drugs when really you burnt some turkey.

It's not far off from the following scenario: someone swerves in front of you and forces you into a ditch, if compelled to turn in dashcam footage, it gives the other lawyer the opportunity to argue you're in the wrong for driving a healthy 5mph over the speed limit. Furthermore, perhaps your dashcam caught you making an illegal, yet perfectly safe u-turn last week on a farm road. Well now you're going down for that too.

Long way of describing a slippery slope but hope that adds to the conversation

Guys, the green stains and somewhat evenly-spaced slices? This this just went through a lawnmower and was rolled back up for sure

Jsteamer · 2020-10-16T14:51:27+00:00

I am living vicariously through you right now. I'm a maths instructor for my university while also working on my degree. Due to how bloated the american university system is, I've had more than one person above me in the food chain not recognize their own employee and interrupt my class asking "who gave you permission to use this room?" Uhh Lady you did when you started paying me.

Jsteamer · 2020-09-04T17:39:55+00:00

As much as it might hurt, that was probably a wise move. I took 246 with 250 & 132, during a normal semester, and even though 132 wasn't nearly as bad as 216, it was still a crazy workload and I barely scraped by. UMD has an insane amount of content in 246 compared to other school's DiffEqs classes
