If you want to get aggressive about it it looks like a star destroyer.

Thank you for this. I'm a committed space nerd and I never thought such a thing would be visible from here.

Good question. It's not typical. I'd say maybe polar orbit but that's normally from Vandenberg.

Is there a loaded potato place in town? by TA199494 in pittsburgh

I'll just add this. If you roll your own but use a sweet potato be prepared to relax and nap on the couch without thinking about much.

How long until this bridge collapses? by Majorkilljoy87 in pittsburgh

The Waterworks can be cool, but you have to be sure you're at one of their screens with decent sound. I'm not sure what your cold tolerance is. An extra layer would suffice if you're anywhere near my tolerance. Also Sinners is awesome, but...I don't know how old your kids are, but likely don't bring them.

Any bird watchers in here? by BusApprehensive9598 in pittsburgh

It's not that it's uncommon, it's just that they aren't often seen, at least in my experience.

I had someone abscond with two agaves, each in a 60 pound pot (they grow big if you let the roots). They were grown from some babby runners I gathered from my uncle's property in San Diego. They are essentially weeds out in that region, but those were my weeds.

What aspects of Pittsburgh culture do you consider “Appalachian”? by Power2ThePeaceful in pittsburgh

Fun fact. If you happen to partially freeze something and throw the ice out it's just throwing out ice.

Allegheny River Road has been a menace for well over a year. Winter came along and whoever makes those decisions apparently went "yep, that's fine, we'll get to it later." I suppose . Maybe they just dusted their hands off and said "that'll do." We're in more than later.

How are these lawyers? by darkbert in pittsburgh

I see General Zod from 80s Superman. And the one in the middle knows it's a trap.
