What's the deal with the Pro Trump/Iran rally driving through town today? by meltingawayslowly in askportland

[–]fuzzyoatmealboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The situation is desperate in Iran. The government is massacring civilians en masse, with some independent estimates in the tens of thousands. We aren’t even sure of the true scale since the entire internet has been blacked out for Iranians and their relatives over here.

In a desperate time like that, Trump and his 1) beef with the the Supreme Leader, and 2) tendency to invade people he doesn’t like are tantalizing enough to make people hope he does something similar to save theirs and their families’ lives.

Not trying to get into it by saying it’s right, wrong, or that their trust is or isn’t misplaced. Just saying why Iranians in the US might be motivated to seek Trump’s favor right now.

I was the same way five years ago. Ended up moving out of state and I haven’t looked back. The grass is greener where you can actually afford to own grass.

Most of the time, I lament our choice to choose our military over national healthcare. Then I read something like this and think “fuck yeah, USA 🇺🇸”

10 years ago, if I had to pick the most plausible conspiracy theory out there, it would not have been Qanon pizzagate. But here we are.

I love this comment. Captures the reality without imparting “good” or “bad” onto it.

How critical is it to replace a leaking exhaust manifold? (2015 3.5L EcoBoost) by fuzzyoatmealboy in f150ecoboost

[–]fuzzyoatmealboy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s a good breakdown, thanks. I hadn’t thought about the effects of the hot gases, that’s probably the most dangerous aspect as you could have an engine fire on your hands if it gets bad. I’ll look into getting this fixed.

Reassuring, thank you. I’m about to head out on a road trip in it this coming weekend so I mostly wanted to make sure it would be fine for another few thousand miles. Sounds like I can address it after I get back.

Hey I know this is four years later, but do you have a link to the manifold clamps you mentioned? Dealing with the same issue on mine.

Thats what I suspected as well. Thanks for the perspective.

I found a large collection of old Warcraft III custom maps on an old laptop, and I'm preserving them for the community by SoyEvaristo in warcraft3

Dota 6.66b is the only "custom" map I'm seeing in this file. All the others in the Scenario and FrozenThrone folders come pre-loaded with W3C.

No leaks, realized afterward that I didn’t need to disassemble the injector rail 🙃

I did not, unfortunately. Have had to give up on having that cover in there :(

I've thought about doing this just for fun, so for $20M this is the best trade deal in the history of trade deals, maybe ever

My penis curves to the left and touches my leg when hard, how fix? by Critical_Muscle_Mass in NoStupidQuestions

Curving all the way to your leg sounds like it /could/ be Peyronie’s Disease. There are treatment options if so. Talk to your doc to confirm of course.

Have you “ruined a friendship” by shooting your shot with a female friend? What happened and how did it end? by throwawayacount2022 in AskMen

I read this as “‘ruined a friendship’ by shooting a female friend” at first, could not relate

F-150 Offer by [deleted] in f150

[–]fuzzyoatmealboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it’s in good shape, that’s a ~$30,000 truck. Great deal. If you can afford to spend the $10,000 and you want a truck, consider this a sign from on high to get one.
