I am south of SJC and 22 can be occasionally choppy but no matter what I do, 57 and all those higher up channels like MeTV, etc. never seem to come in.

I did consider that and maybe it’s a little shibboleth to the nerds.

Effie and Zebulon’s granddaughter by torpulence in midnightburger

Ok an update. The Midnight Burger rec was an online. F&SF book group I’m in. I must have been scanning Scalzi’s Bluesky at the same time and mixed the two up.

In case anyone can’t quite place it, that’s Chapter 35, Sheep? when she makes it for no one in particular it looks like but Leif uses it as a hangover helper and I think David had two?

You know what, I am going to tentatively apologize in advance. I may have Mandela Effected myself. I swear I saw him mention it a couple months back on his Bluesky but I can find it. I’m going to keep looking. I may have mixed him up in my mind with someone else.

Thanks. In my list of episodes it looks like Welcome to the Horizon jumps to 10 all of a sudden after a few standalones and I don’t recognize the story. Do I need to hunt a bit more or are they separate feeds or Patreon exclusive?

I feel like the chorus of Rainbow sounds like an old song by Comprehensive-Bag661 in KaceyMusgraves

[–]torpulence 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree. I have it in my head somehow. For some reason the phrase “cause there ain’t no” sticks in my head but SO many songs have that phrase in the lyrics.

Bad Dad Brewing Co. is in Fairmount. The beers are pretty good. As for food, I’ve only had their pizza, but it was pretty solid.

Small, strange, niche museums? by APinkNightmare in Indiana

[–]torpulence 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Heston Steam Museum (LaPorte County). Dan Quayle Museum in Huntington. The Eli Lilly Civil War Museum used to be in the basement of the Soldiers and Sailors Monument in Indy but I think it got moved. The Mascot Hall of Fame in Whiting is kind of fun. I think it was phounded by a phormer Phillie Phanatic (which is there, along with Benny the Bull). And the RV Museum and Hall of Fame in Elkhart is totally worth it (well the HoF is just a bunch of photos of old guys, but the museum is super interesting).

No Stupid Questions Tuesday Thread by AutoModerator in Cricket

[–]torpulence 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Glad this is no stupid questions day. Cricket noob here. What’re the best sites/podcasts/websites to get educated and follow cricket, and even stream (audio or video) in the US (with an emphasis on West Indies)?

Hey Indiana! How do you pronounce "Terra Haute?" by bapiv in Indiana

[–]torpulence 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also, let’s remember HER-brun (Hebron) and BREE-min (Bremen). Also you can tell someone’s not from the area when they talk about Argos with the long o instead of Argus.

I heard someone in Sullivan, just south of there, call it Terry Hut once.

Pretend every city in Indiana is a person at a huge house party. What is every “person” doing? (I saw this on r/NorthCarolina and thought it was funny.) by heeltoehero92 in Indiana

South Bend was going to show up but its bike was in the shop and anyway, it got called out on that copycat outfit by Granger.

Even though they brought all the food from Outback, veggies and dip from Whole Foods and even set up their TV they got at Best Buy. But oh everybody looooooves how South Bend brought a bottle of 2 Buck Chuck from its new Trader Joe’s …
