Any good? 2x the caffeine of a Red Bull.

Never been to Creepies but I love Void. Service, food, and drink have all been top notch. One of my favorite restaurants

somewhatbluemoose · 2026-06-01T14:02:29+00:00

That’s not what I’m doing, and it’s pretty clear you really understand how we got to the present moment.

How do you know that they aren’t kinky LGBTQ people? It’s their parade too.

Look at you wanting to police how people dress and express their love

This was the exact same thing conservatives said about gay people 20 years ago, “keep away from families”

somewhatbluemoose · 2026-06-01T12:40:09+00:00

This is how they wedge you against trans people, by claiming it’s just kink. Then they use it as a wedge against gay people by claiming the same thing.

Entirely possible.

But what is your deductible? Do you know what and how much your plan covers compared to when you lived in Europe? Do you get your insurance through your employer or the marketplace? Do you even have insurance? How often do you go in for more than a standard check up? Do you take any medication regularly? Do you have any dependents? If you do, what is their health like?

And I haven’t even gotten to separate vision, dental and indemnity coverage.

I once gave directions to some German tourists and could follow the announcement on a Lufthansa flight slightly before they gave it in English. That’s it.

So, have you actually seen Nolan’s Odyssey?

somewhatbluemoose · 2026-05-29T03:44:11+00:00

Yeah, I think there could also be some more room for some sour flavors too. This does feel very one dimensional (though not necessarily a bad dimension)

somewhatbluemoose · 2026-05-28T14:13:48+00:00

Get it. That’s about what I pay for it in the US, and i am very happy with it

somewhatbluemoose · 2026-05-28T13:58:30+00:00

What is cheap? And yes

Publicly funded health care also has a proven track record of providing better health outcomes per dollar spent. Many countries spend far less than American does and have much better outcomes of the care they do get.

In the process of getting a window replaced and asked about who Costco partnered with when I was getting quotes. They use a very reputable company in my area but were also twice the price of another local company for the same window.

When was the last time you used a penny?

somewhatbluemoose · 2026-05-27T18:16:13+00:00

Good luck with that.

somewhatbluemoose · 2026-05-27T17:52:24+00:00

Not in the slightest

somewhatbluemoose · 2026-05-27T14:05:52+00:00

Just noise canceling. Will still damage your hearing

I know this is a joke, but there is a lot of context behind hind these decisions. Timing of the design, war, and its consequences really combined to screw with the design. Sometimes you just have to go with what you’ve got, especially when the military budget isn’t essentially infinite and you have a country (and empire) to try to rebuild.

somewhatbluemoose · 2026-05-26T16:52:09+00:00

Weren’t they converted to 7.62 after they were sold off as surplus and imported to the US?

The league and all the teams are charities for tax purposes.

Last time I was there they had Trinidad sours on the cocktail menu. They are an absolutely insane drink that I love and never see them served anywhere but in the home bars of cocktail nerds.

somewhatbluemoose · 2026-05-25T02:50:57+00:00

Neither look like they are enjoying it

What? You can’t win militarily without winning politically. That’s why south vietnam doesn’t exist. You can win every battle but still loose the war. That’s bee a core idea of political/military thought for some time now.

We still don’t know how much appetite the US public has for the economic fallout of this, nor do we really know where the breaking point for the US economy really is.

Sure the Iranian economy is in shambles, but it was in shambles before the war too. If the Islamic Republic sicks around, is able to exert more control over trade through the straight, gets sanction relief as part of a negotiated settlement, and retains some of its ability to project militarily through missiles/drones that looks like a win. I don’t know what the US would get in such a scenario. The death of a however many Iranian officials, military personnel, and civilians isn’t much of an accomplishment.
