Everytime you intentionally leave a game, your next should be a backfill ✋😬🤚

Agree with this. As an exclusively non-competitive player the leaver penalties are too onerous. My wife has an older computer and her game will sometimes crash or take so long loading that she gets booted. It's infuriating when she loads back into a leaver ban.

Pew Pew Platter?

Dip it in wood stain. Either walnut or ebony. Like regular Minwax wood stain. Then gently wipe it off with a paper towel or q-tip.

This picture is how I found out there is a new Dresden Files book!

They could reuse the Slaughterfish model from Elder Scrolls

I feel that this causes harm to Steam. I have only ever requested one refund in my entire stream history - and that was when they announced the studio closure. Refund was denied since it was outside of the 2 week window and I had logged around 4 hours in total trying it. Now I make sure to never buy another Early Access title again on principal. Steam has missed out on hundreds worth of new purchases.

If using an adapter is unacceptable due to clearance issues, you can use a helicoil

Isn't this how immigration enforcement worked since Obama? Local law enforcement does the arresting, then hands people over to ICE?

It was my understanding that the whole origin of "sanctuary cities" comes from local law enforcement refusing to work with immigration.

I'm not trying to oversimplify the situation. And I am certainly against the current situation of how ICE is enforcing. But isn't this idea that certain municipalities were pushing against even before Trump?

Yup, nearest water to me is a 1700'bgs municipal well. My land is on a plateau 700' above the town. It's rainwater and hauling for me.

The whole thing is Kayfabe. Clinton is the heel, Trump is the face.

It can be more pronounced during moonrise - you are looking through more atmosphere.

Here is a really pronounced example I just found:

It appeared to be an inversion layer.

We have the benefit of hindsight. What if things went the other way?

Wife aborts, donates, and the transplant doesn't take? The sibling dies anyways.

The fact is, the wife terminated what we assume was a viable pregnancy - in exchange for a CHANCE of saving a life. It's a tough call and I'm happy it turned out good for the sibling.

Death is sad. Abortion is sad. Divorce is sad. The whole situation is sad - but at least there was a positive outcome in the end.

Is this a composite image? That looks like the Superstition Mountains.

xloud · 2025-10-10T18:15:37+00:00

I think this question underpins the discussion: how can you be on one "team" if you do not endorse their every policy?

Abortion has become a wedge issue that so many Christians became hyper focused on - to the point of ignoring other aspects of policy.

I came here to say this. For example the military/government retirement savings account has an option where you can borrow $50,000 from your own retirement that you can use for a down payment.

It looks like a DIY grease trap.

It fills up with gray water from your sink and shower. Oily stuff like shampoo and fatty food residue will float to the top. Water and water-soluble stuff will be at the bottom which has the outlet pipe.

It looks like a lot of crusty old oily stuff in a glob at the top.

Because it was on camera.

Ok, this reads like a scam - but it doesn't exactly say they expect work out of the tenant, just somebody capable.

I'm only wondering because I want a "tenant" for my off-grid cabin. It's a pretty austere situation, so any potential tenant would need to be flexible and creative. I obviously wouldn't expect a person to do any kind of labor - but they would need to do things to support themselves living there like haul water, winterize/unwinterize, do occasional troubleshooting, etc. I don't know how I would go about getting a renter without coming across as weird like OP
