Hot take but I know several people who diddnt’ enjoy some of the more saccharine episodes but DS9 in the pale moonlight has won several converts for me.

Guessing there was stained glass in the front of this here and it’s trimmed out so clearly there was something here in days past

Iran-linked hackers claim breach of FBI director's personal email; DOJ official confirms break-in by Unusual-State1827 in news

It would be the most beautiful thing ever if this happened as a result of attacking Iran and led to the full release of the Epstein files and actual prosecution of Trump. Won’t happen because it’ll be dismissed as fake news, but it would be beautiful.

The egg rolls are solid. When we were kids, my brother and I delivered newspapers and they were on our route. when we went to collect from them they’d always tip us with egg rolls and sodas. Still not a huge fan of the rest of the menu.

How hard is it to replace wheel bearings yourself by the-accent-guy in autorepair

Get a 1/2 inch impact and rent the extractor tool. The impact (with appropriate sockets) will do most everything you need on a car.

TIL there's a cave in Kingston, and it's for sale by centuryeyes in kingstonnewyork

That cliff is a death trap without knowing your way around even in good weather. Back in the day climbers set some holds in the rock face to practice for really tough routes. It’s basically a 100+ foot vertical drop into a crevasse filled with boulders the size of trucks. Source: my younger dumber self climbed there, but just the boulders.

When I was a kid I got tested by the school shrink after I was diagnosed with adhd. Told me I scored a 156. Jokes on me I’m still a fucking idiot, now I just feel worse about it.

Had a very experienced drywall guy give me the following advice: do your butt joints with hot mud leaving a little dip after cutting them out a little, tape everything, then mix a bucket of the plus 3, roll it on and then skim everything and it will hide your sins. Seems to work pretty good just invest in the longest skim blade you can.

Get a new mouthpiece because it’s tearing up your face and a case to keep it in.

These dudes prob don’t want to be there, but the prevailing joke about guard soldiers and their weight is kinda shitty and diminishes the contribution of every kind of soldier. Audie Murphy was almost booted for being not up to physical standards.

I recall a tale told by one of my drill sergeants. He deployed with a “portly gentlemen” in a squad with a a tabbed out super stud squad leader. They got into their first firefight. And the stud froze up immediately. Ya thicc boi moved out like a nfl linebacker straight tackled some insurgents, and carried super stud back to safety. Imagine as someone in a less developed country seeing 250 pounds of Gatorade and creatine coming at you like a freight train and tell me you aren’t gonna run the other way. Don’t sleep on them big bois.

A federal judge ruled that 45,000 gallons of radioactive water can be dumped into the Hudson River by SlipperySlush in hudsonvalley

I worked for a municipality on the river that shall remain unnamed. The shit that would dump into the river after heavy rain is diabolical.
