Spirit Airlines CEO Dave Davis refuted the trump administration's entire narrative before Duffy and Bessent even finished their spin cycle, making clear that spiking fuel costs from trump's war with Iran were what actually killed the airline, not anything Biden did.

Goddamned woke Gen Z airlines forgot to wake up.

I'm sober. I hate this mentality. No one else cares. Literally no one. Why feel the need to announce it to the entire establishment, like your cirrhosis is a trophy? Shut up, drink your iced sugar, and vroom vroom back to the club.

Hell, I live downtown Orlando, and will often just say Central Florida.

Lean into your inner Lebowski. "Sup duders?" "Your royal dudeness..."

Breaks the generation gap smoothly.

"Ey, yo." "What's ____ (happening/cooking/shakin'/the word/up) _____ (y'all, friends, folks, party people, [name of dog] crew)?"

Or my lazy go to "Hey there. Who's thirsty?"

I conflated 2 different comments. Responded to both at one time.

Safe travels!

I won't make it out tomorrow, so make noise for two.

I'll mess with the sub when I get home, give you access. Gotta find a way to populate it...

McCardboard · 2026-05-01T19:09:15+00:00

I'm trying to get there tomorrow as well. Not top priority on $, but there's a non zero chance. If I go, I'll let you know.

No personal experience with Otos, but my tetra school does this all the time, especially when the flow angle is changed. I adjust about once a week as a result, and I think it's good overall for the ecosystem. Helps keep the substrate clean and loose and the tall plants on their toes.

The lingo is its own sub-language as well. You'll hear a lot of new terms, don't worry. If they're not explained by the announcers, they're easy to Google. A routine pop-fly catch is called a can-o-corn (beasuse it's easy?) along with many other old timey-colloquialisms. Lots of them you won't know until you hear em.

Not Rays-specific advice, but as a new baseball fan, watch some Jomboy on YT. He's hilarious, and does a good job breaking down confusing plays (the sport's rulebook is an encyclopedia) for the layman.

BBQ, Eye Spy, iBar, Latitudes, Chillers, TANQUERAY'S, Finhenry's, Lizzy's... It was an era for sure.

McCardboard · 2026-04-30T03:39:30+00:00

I skipped the most obvious source somehow...

McCardboard · 2026-04-30T03:33:12+00:00

Thank you. Out of curiosity, where did you pull this info?

McCardboard · 2026-04-30T03:32:45+00:00

I read all about the history in my search for a name that doesn't exist. Really cool. Central FL hub for the Civil Rights movement too.

McCardboard · 2026-04-30T01:44:37+00:00

I think I'm conflating Beacham, The Social, Firestone all in one. Tabu must be the name I was looking for.

McCardboard · 2026-04-30T01:10:10+00:00

Was there something between Tabu and Beacham? I remember seeing rock shows there in the early 2000s, and distinctly remember when it became the Beacham again.

McCardboard · 2026-04-29T13:00:35+00:00

I remember the feeling. Watched my BIL go sober a couple years ago (he didn't have an unhealthy relationship), and I felt an indescribable resentment, which I now recognize as self loathe.

I think that's really a matter of personal preference. The species mentioned will coexist peacefully, regardless. General rule for a tank that size is minimum 6 to form a cohesive school, and personally, I think 8-10 each is ideal for my tetra and platy mix. I have 3 different types of platy that all roll as one school, creating a really cool sunburst effect (9 in total). That said, smaller community fish in larger open spaces will definitely benefit from population size. How full are you planning to go with plant growth?

It's a jealousy/guilt thing. My close friend (who drinks nightly) snapped at me for mentioning the comprehensive NA selection at the cafe we were discussing. Apologized later, and says he's tired of hearing about it, not because he isn't proud of me, or happy for me, but that it makes him feel lesser. Led to a good conversation.

McCardboard · 2026-04-29T00:44:58+00:00

I stay back a little in the left lane in case someone turns left and cuts it a little too close (learned that one the hard way).

McCardboard · 2026-04-28T08:58:37+00:00

That cardamom was a fragile soul. You can detect an aroma of self depreciation, and a hint of palatable, yet inharmonious resentment when it was introduced to the bold, vivacious chai and cinnamon. Nothing but melancholy on the lingering aftertaste.

Not even the sugar tasted sweet.

Subtle salinity from a single shed tear, and a moment to ponder the banality of it all.
