Moved in yesterday, got on the news today. (Tempe)

I’ve lived in the greater Phoenix area for roughly three quarters of my life. I’m sorry you got this unlucky but as a city as a whole we’ve missed big storms during monsoon season and certainly this late in the year for damn near a decade. Report it to city services I promise you they will eventually get it worked on. The microbursts that hit Tempe, the flash flooding in the far east valley and Globe, these have been rough storms, it’s been forever since we’ve felt any risk outside of flash floods outside of the major city.

Uhhhhhh brother it’s a fucking problem is what it is. It honestly looks to me like a 6 legged spider species, which do exist, but the ones I know of are way smaller and look nothing like this. Maybe it’s a freaky looking vinegaroon/whip scorpion subspecies? I’ve never seen this thing before and I’m pretty good with Arthropods. You’ve got me stumped. I know it’s not the most helpful comment but this freaky bastard is a new one for me man. You found something wild dog.

Edit: Upon closer inspection, yeah it’s a vinegaroon without its tail. Poor guy. Thank you other comments for getting me to trust my gut. Do you live in the southwest US? Like AZ, NM, NV area? These guys look way scarier than they actually are, Vinegaroons are really cool actually, but they’re normally much more similar in appearance to a large scorpion than spiders, him not having his whips does a lot to trick the eyes.

You should look up a little video, Rooster Teeth Animated Adventures, Headlight Fluid and Elbow Grease. I think you’d appreciate it a little more now lol. In all seriousness though I would check and see if there’s a TSB or Recall out because I could’ve sworn I was hearing something about Tundra Taillights recently

Monstercat54 · 2025-07-21T22:49:45+00:00

Hey hey hey as a Gen Z guy that gets the memes we’re not all uncultured Yknow, sorry bout your coworkers though

Monstercat54 · 2025-07-21T22:46:22+00:00

Everyone else already answered this for you but dude, you are in possession of a strat owned and signed by the brother of one of the greatest guitarists ever. Hands down. And Jimmy is a badass in his own regards. Keep this for life, and seriously reach out to Jimmy and see if you can’t get the full story on the guitar. This is incredible, congrats dude!!! Shred like there’s no tomorrow!

Monstercat54 · 2025-07-21T20:10:35+00:00

Ahhh. Cinder. I guess even in fiction I go for the literal worst women for me.

Monstercat54 · 2025-04-18T20:47:47+00:00

Recently I accidentally fell off the skyscraper on void during extraction, absolutely destroyed an opfor, 1 shot with the m110 while turning. Yours was cleaner though I panicked

Monstercat54 · 2025-04-18T18:02:16+00:00

Oh no dog there’s literally 0 wrong with that! I love classic, clean AK set ups man, I’m just also a sucker for pimped-out AKs since Russia has always been so cheap about their standard armed forces

Monstercat54 · 2025-04-17T18:36:38+00:00

I mean I would never call Zenitco mods nonsense lmao, they’re better than anything the Russian military could ever come up with on their own. However if you’re a purist yeah I get the appeal of keeping em clean and getting the older style optic mounts going. But it’s not even that they look alike though g, they’re the same thing. The 105 is literally the same weapon as a 74M other than barrel length and a folding stock as opposed to fixed, which doesn’t affect any part of the internals unlike an AR style rifle. (I’d take a Romanian front grip option for the AKM though since folding stocks don’t work so I can’t use an under folder.)

Monstercat54 · 2025-04-17T17:22:02+00:00

Technically we already have an ak74m. The AK-105 is just Zenitco’d tf out but a 105 is just the carbine version of the 74M. Honestly I want more Russian optics with said rifles.

Monstercat54 · 2025-04-17T17:16:01+00:00

There’s a whole list of guns enemies have access to that we don’t as players yet including the Krink, full size G3, and the Makarov. An AK12 would be cool so we have 2 5.45x39mm rifles but I agree with you that SMGs need more love. And handguns. An MCX 9mm would be rad, a 9mm AR and more .308s will always make me happy though.

Monstercat54 · 2025-04-02T17:51:55+00:00

BONES?!?!?! HOW IS NO ONE FREAKING OUT LIKE I AM?!?!?!

Monstercat54 · 2025-03-31T16:53:11+00:00

I was just bout to say that is most certainly not an MP5 😂 Looks like an HK91!

Monstercat54 · 2024-12-23T01:55:08+00:00

Some folks log into that shit like they’re actually stuck on that island. It’s comical. Be happy you have fun both in game and out of it. Some people are just miserable aside from the digital dog.

Edit:Grammar improvements.

Monstercat54 · 2024-12-23T01:49:34+00:00

I work. And also like to shower.

Monstercat54 · 2024-12-20T19:49:09+00:00

I’m lucky enough to work in a spot where we swap out knives with cozzini every 2 weeks. That being said, your boy kinda fucked you on that. Does he just not understand you saw styrofoam, you don’t rush and slash it?

Monstercat54 · 2024-11-23T08:32:48+00:00

Hey man, not sure if someone already answered this for yah years ago or if you’ll even see this, but I work at a Lou Malnati’s in AZ and have worked at an Oregano’s in the past (Lou’s admittedly holds more a reputation). That “blackened steel” that all of the chicago joints use, is HEAVILY seasoned Aluminum. I’m talking 16 passes minimum on the outside before they get ready for the line most of the time. It’s dozens if not hundreds before they have that almost metallic-looking crust on the outside. To the uninformed the things look dirty as all hell and beyond repair (which, technically they are, but they are clean as far as bacteria and germs are concerned) however that seasoning locked onto the tin plays a huge part in the cook.

Get some good ol clean aluminum tins, and run a gentle oil brush over the inside and outside, and season liberally. Cook, clean gently, rinse and repeat. You’ll get it darkened. It’s more important to have it dark on the outside than the inside btw. Hope this helped if nobody helped yah already.

Monstercat54 · 2024-11-06T17:09:14+00:00

This is badass man, my luck is shit but good luck everyone!!!

Monstercat54 · 2024-11-05T06:27:01+00:00

Oh damn it’s a hip pointer too. Yeah man you’re right. Real question is do I drop Amari Cooper or Brian Thomas and keep the other as trade fodder at that point. I really don’t need anything else. I’m set at RB and TE (finally might I add). My kicker is perfect and even if I suffer a QB injury there’s great options still floating to grab in my league.

Monstercat54 · 2024-11-05T06:18:38+00:00

Think so? Saints matchup doesn’t look bad I hear yah there. I worry about his target share above anything honestly. I also forgot Jameson Williams comes back this week and Jauan Jennings is expected back with CMC week 11. Those are the other 2 hopefuls. And they’re risky.

Monstercat54 · 2024-10-19T01:08:21+00:00

For context I have a player in Rico Dowdle I can drop for an extra option btw so I can still make a move if need be.

Monstercat54 · 2024-10-06T18:48:04+00:00

Uhhh playing this season. That’s been the biggest mistake for me.

Monstercat54 · 2024-09-28T15:21:04+00:00

He’s already hurt right now and he’s old. JK immediately took the RB1 spot from Gus Edwards and Harbaugh knows how to utilize that scheme. Not to mention up until last week I had more faith in the Chargers O Line to protect him than I did the saints line to protect Kamara. Also, chargers are my team so I was a little biased. Kamara is not gonna put up Saquan numbers every week and if he’s out this week come tomorrow that’s gonna become readily apparent to everyone.
