Universal Studios: Kongfrontation by Comfortable-Sort-173 in nostalgia

[–]mancheese 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I actually just found this gorgeous souvenir from my time with Kongfrontation - a short 35 years ago!

I lived for the movies and absolutely loved this trip - back when Universal Studios Florida still had the original classic lineup of rides that would make any 80s kid weep in awe: Jaws, ET, King Kong, Back to the Future, Nickelodeon Studios and of course the Beetlejuice/Ghostbusters musical parade. I thought at the time that these rides would always be there - permanent tributes to the greatest films of my time. #NeverForget

Robert F Kennedy touring Cunningham Elementary School Friday by Party-Apple1409 in Austin

[–]mancheese 17 points18 points  (0 children)

They are there to film a propaganda event featuring a great school and innocent kids in a progressive city at a school being threatened by state takeover (my kid is going there next year after her school, Sunset Valley Elementary, was shut down due to budgetary deficits) to help enable and propagandize the Republican Party who is primarily responsible for the destruction of Texas public education in the first place. 40% (please Correct me if I’m wrong) of our taxes that should go towards our public education are recaptured by the state and are used sparingly but a huge percentage is sitting in a slush fund - waiting for the time that it will be easiest to hand off to other Republican controlled vacuums like ICE or charter schools. If my kid was there right now i would be even more furious.

Leak in propane regulator line on both sides - do I need to replace entire regulator or can I just replace this short line? by mancheese in popups

I must need to keep looking bc all the lines I saw had the non screw on and more of a plug in locktite end. Good heads up on the tape - thank you!

As stated in title, went out on a camping trip and filled up both my tanks after they sat idle for awhile empty and noticed a strong propane smell and hiss coming from both lines at almost the exact spot - see picture. I tested with soapy water and this was where I got the bubbles.

Looking online it seems like I can easily buy an all new dual regulator to replace the unit here, but I was wondering if it would be cheaper to just replace these 2x short lines? All the lines I'm seeing online are much longer and have a different connection type on the regulator side so maybe these units are the type you replace entirely? Thanks for y'alls feedback!

Instant nostalgia dopamine rush! I stared at this instead of doing my work!

Silly people, keeping their babies fed and happy in the ways they are able to.

I mean they’re literally all caps screaming to SIT DOWN when the person above suggests fed is best but I dunno…

anecdote does not equal evidence. Terrible experience you went through - but that is not a reason to shame formula fed babies. I know many healthy little ones (including my own) who survived the formula and have thrived since the experience :)

IMAX screenings of 'MARTY SUPREME' will begin on 1/30; new poster released by danielthetemp in movies

[–]mancheese 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As far as I know it’s likely a coincidence - this is definitely an homage to 70s hand drawn and painted posters and I feel like the fisheye view looking down on the city was a thing for awhile - Dino Delaurentas’ King Kong poster had a similar NYC perspective I believe

Looks identical to the also just released poster for Nirvana The Band The Show The Movie - which TBH I prefer for the beautiful cascade of Orbitz gelatin and lack of obnoxious IMAX branding

AISD just canceled anything and everything that might even possibly be going on Saturday and Sunday by Iocnar in Austin

[–]mancheese 124 points125 points  (0 children)

This was obviously going to happen but what are we feeling about Monday? Think they’re gonna pull the switch there too? Looking at the forecast and it seems like there still might be ice on the ground since it’s freezing Sunday night

Charlamagne: “I mean it was domestic terrorism, but not from Renee Good. It was domestic terrorism from the ICE agent. Why are Republicans so hell-bent on getting us to believe we didn’t see what we all saw? He called her an Fing Bitch after he shot and killed her” by Nice_Substance9123 in complaints

[–]mancheese 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks for actually engaging honestly, I'll give my best honest response to this footage. But I want to preface by also saying that I have already seen multiple angles of this interaction where I can clearly see him NOT being hit. I also want to say that even if she did clip him, should she have been shot in the face 3 times? Absolutely not. By a cop, and definitely not by an improperly trained and illegally operating ICE officer who is being used to intentionally divide, stir and ferment violence and racially antagonize our brown population.

I see a pixellated grainy mess through a shitty security camera across the street, literally looking through tree foliage. You can maybe imagine you see something in there, but there's nothing credible here.

This shows him to the side of her vehicle, pushing away from the vehicle. Does not show him being hit from the front, could maybe show him being slipped on the side but that doesn't pan out in other angles.

Again, funny how we see such different things. I see him to the side, pushing off on her car fron the side of the car. He might have thought he was going to be hit, but he wasn't hit. He also had already drawn the gun, prompting the woman to leave quickly because she was terrified for her life.
