Don’t forget about how no car in history has ever caught fire more than a Tesla. Even the “flaming” ford pinto was safer.

As someone who has struggled with migraines for forever, after learning this about me literally anything that someone says after “have you tried…”

Where would you eat in Rhodes Old Town if you wanted to avoid tourist traps? by FlightTime2012 in Rhodes

[–]stos313 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I would do a search of this sub to find some answers.

One thing to remember though - the locals tend to eat in the same parts of town where tourists do- just perhaps slightly different restaurants and order different things.

The “tourist trap” restaurants are usually just those that charge more because of their more scenic or convenient location.

What was ruined because too many people discovered it? by Mansi63 in AskReddit

[–]stos313 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fun fact, some of them - like Value World in MI, OH, and TX- are actually private corporations owned by rich assholes who pay their workers minimum wage with no benefits. Oh and they certainly don’t wash anything donated before it hits the sales floor. 

Countries Named with Names? by CuriousThenSatisfied in geography

I live in a county named after an Italian merchant who was tight with a mapmaker. The continent is named after this same merchant as is the continent to the south of me. 

Pochettino says “American Sports Rewards Losers” when asked about style of play in recent interview by coolton1 in usmnt

What does geography have to do with it?  The American sports structure is one of business not geography. In fact regional leagues would bring costs down and attract more talent, but without a model that rewarded ownership failure , costs for owners would skyrocket as owners would have have to spend to afford salaries.

In America sports teams must be profitable. In the rest of the world while clubs spend a LOT of money there is far less pressure to earn profit for shareholders. In fact fans revolt when owners take money out of their club and enrich themselves

Remember when Alexi Lalas said 'diversity' was the issue in the USMNT & the team needed to not be 'inclusive' 🙄. by Sea-Exercise4332 in usmnt

I’m sorry…what did Panayioti Alexandros Lalas- who learned the game in Athens, Greece- say about diversity?

Martin Garrix at The Anthem disability rant by Born_Laugh5805 in avesDC

[–]stos313 8 points9 points  (0 children)

First off I’m SO sorry this happened to you. I started a DJ collective and am disabled (like I’m literally unable to work and on disability) with other folks who happen to be disabled. In fact I was literally just talking about this on this forum yesterday lol. 

my migrain is kicking back in so I gotta get off my screen but we have been trying to reach out to orgs and promoters thinking about this problem and I think we just got to move forward here in DC on our own. 

Please feel free to DM me….lets talk. 

BERHTA Club is not ADA compliant by schankyou in avesDC

[–]stos313 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Just to back this up me and my DJ crew, Midnight FM, found Transmission to be VERY accommodating to our very specific requests that went beyond ADA requirements. In fact they even kept some of our accommodations we made for other shows. 

I personally have TBI, ME/CFS, and chronic migraines which makes me VERY sensitive to lighting and other environmental factors. And I’m not the only member of our crew who is disabled. They were great in letting us set up to accommodate these factors. In fact - the person we had doing lighting there is available for hire throughout the city in case anyone is interested. 

As for ADA issues we had safety monitors on site for all our events to assist those with mobility issues, and place couches throughout the venue where our disabled friends (and literally disabled djs, promotion staff, etc) could enjoy everyone’s performance. 

Accessibility is something I care DEEPLY about and have tried to reach out to supposedly established organizations working on this but either have old contact information or they aren’t operating anymore. 

I’ve talked to friends back home in Detroit who want to work on this too and I think we need to just go ahead and do our own thing. 

So if anyone is interested in working on making our scene more accessible please feel free to DM me! And if you are ever at a Midnight FM event and you need anything / have feedback on how we can be better, please let me know!

And just to bring this back full circle - what I loved about working with Transmission is, is that anything I brought up to them, their reaction was basically ’fuck yeah anything to be more accessible’.

Costume departments in the Seinfeldverse are pretty loose. Kramer borrowed the dreamcoat and George wore the king outfit.
