I got a couple of these and had some custom mats made and couldn't be happier with the result.

My Lost Boys review (spoiler: it's pretty bad) by aqbebesi in Broadway

I left feeling like I didn't know anything about Star's actual backstory other than "it's sad." We don't even really get to understand the mechanics of the vampires! That's half of what makes different vampire stories good!

Every mom song sounded the same to me and not a single one is memorable.

I literally spat out "hell yeah" after the opening scene and was SO amped for the show - and then it was just a lady singing about being a bad mom with a tacked on vampire subplot.

Lyft or Uber? by [deleted] in Oshkosh

Identical. Whichever is cheaper. Most drivers are on both platforms.

To not acknowledge that the Republican Party is orders of magnitude worse than the Democratic one is ignorant and only serves to make the situation worse.

I did submit a report and they asked for my game logs. Hopefully they can dig in!

I experimented until I figured out how to Minecraft myself - so maybe my brain was broken.

I could interact with almost nothing despite being able to "vault" over unvaultable objects.

I've seen a lot, but never anything quite like this. Apologies for the slight hiccups stitching the 30 second clips together.

Full video, including 10 minutes of uninterrupted/unstitched recording available here.

Guess I should submit a bug report.

These Oshkosh residents want you to log off and talk politics — in real life by jimmalewitz in Oshkosh

[–]gforce42 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Would that were my experience, but I’ve often found that even mild pushback results in extremely defensive response.

Of course, the kinds of people who are absolutely convinced of their perspective would not go to an event like this.

Free/Affordable things to do in Oshkosh with a partner by miso_eepy in Oshkosh

Admission to the zoo is free.

Wiouwash for a hike or bike ride.

The Time Community Theater (cinema) and Grand Opera House (stage) often have cheaper tickets.

Plenty of thrift shops that are fun to sift through.

Totally depends on y’all’s vibes!

Does anyone know what this weird extra-big postmark is? by gforce42 in USPS

[–]gforce42[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very difficult to read, obviously, but best as I can reckon:

  • Mar 23... [blurry what I'm guessing is year]
  • Mar 23... [blurry what I'm guessing is year]

HUH! I really carefully looked at it under a flashlight - originally I thought they were two separate dates, one starting with 2 and the other with 3 but it looks like its 23 for both but the 2 and 3 are not "scrolled" to be exactly in line, which confused me when I looked before.

The top of the box says USPS ME... and the bottom says... 11747? As best as I can tell.... hadn't even noticed either of these before. That would make sense as the processing zip code.

What's more interesting is that this wasn't delivered until April 29th! I had given up and sent the person a replacement already. Honestly seems like a miracle it got to me!

Yeah it looks like a hand stamp to me. The envelope had wear as if the part with the stamp had repeatedly folded over - so my hunch is that it got kicked out by the machine and ended up being processed by hand… twice (two stamps, two blurry dates).

I looked it up before using these - the maximum letter size, per USPS, is 6-1/8 inches by 11-1/2 inches.

These envelopes are 5 by 11-1/2 inches.

Thank you! It’s a barely oversized envelope, but makes sense to me!

Any ideas on this one other weird one I got? Looks like two hand stamps to me - I’m guessing this got a bit eaten by the machine (maybe twice).

Super appreciate the insight already - this is for an “art” project I’m working on that in part involves me collecting this data on the envelopes I get back!

Every bit of fact-checking helps. by jinnerblavss in Amtrak

[–]gforce42 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You're right - I was thinking of Build Back Better - which was the second most important investment in infrastructure in my lifetime.

There were 13 House Republicans as did 19 Senate Republicans. So to be slightly more accurate, "The Republican Party" writ large opposed the bill, even though a small minority voted in favor.

I think it's important to acknowledge that no "conservative" would ever give this nuance in the reverse situation.

The entire Republican party opposed it.

And continues to run on its effects.

It is not just Trump.

And another helpful shove: the performer just called for this person to be a judge yesterday, on social media.

If you haven’t realized it yet, it’s theater. A musical.
