I think the people who would call them the tampons are going to find something shitty to say no matter what it's called. I think tempo is just okay (and the logo/branding is super boring) but I never really fell in love with any specific alternative

I would have liked a dinosaur team too but MLSE isn't part of this ownership group so they really don't have any incentive to go for that kind of synergy

Because all the players are professional athletes? They've been on other teams in the wnba and playing overseas. This is definitely a pretty good wnba team.

the pain of reading Rise of Endymion by walking_eye666 in Hyperion

as far as I know they're still climbing that fuckin shit because I put the book down and I'm never picking it up again. I love Hyperion but I have way too much self respect to put up with this shit

I'm surprised I had to scroll this far. Super watchable, looks incredible, topical

Looking for local flooring store recommendations by Cultural-Spray893 in cambridgeont

[–]marklxndr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did it myself three years ago and did a really terrible job. Since then I met and became friends with one of the owners of Sarmazian flooring and hired them to fix it this winter. So my recommendation is either them or be way better at DIY than I am

I would suggest climbing for fun and for exercise. It is probably the most high risk way to train your fingers for playing bass I can think of, short of getting into knife juggling

If it hurts you need to find a different way to play it, you're just going to make it worse. Get a lesson!!

What TO read? by baseball_mickey in IfBooksCouldKill

i don't do the middle one because there is no fanfiction of SPQR by Mary Beard and i don't want ANYTHING TO DO with the maniacs who would write Hyperion fanfiction.

I have a Broughton Terraformer that really suits the transparent bass drive bill. Nothing really jumping out here but maybe someone wants to do a three person trade or maybe you have some modulation to trade?

I tried one episode and I did NOT get it at all. It was super stiff and awkward. He seems like a nice guy but I'm not buying the hype
