I have a billiard break cue, it’s hollow steel pipe with brass and galvanized fittings to screw it together. Based off the material, original colors, and general look it’s probably from the early 70’s.

Without fail, if a drunk person finds out it’s hollow they get super weird about it. They hand it back like it’s a writhing appendage, avoid using it when offered, even had a guy drop it like it was gonna bite him. Either way, I play better with it than I ever did before, and I gave it a gorgeous glossy crimson repaint.

That’s exactly my taste! I’ll take it if you ever wanna her rid of it!

In the aughts, pirates bay felt like the library of Congress. If a single commenter on a B tier forum saw it in a guy’s basement in the mid 80’s there was a sure bet at least 3 people were seeding it and one of them had great upload. If it wasn’t there, you had a dozen different sites with their own dedicated fans posting everything you could ever want.

Now it’s maybe 6 sites, they all have the exact same listings, and the only things with seeds came out in the last year of two. It’s like seeing your local library after a fire.

1. Know where you are. Any trouble you get in gets so much worse when you’re lost.

2. Trust your gut. If you don’t feel right about something it’s better to be safe then sorry.

3. Bar tenders and gas stations. If you need someone to help you, that’s the best two options.

Oh heck, do you know where I can find that recipe? Sweet booze is our jam so that might be exactly what I need!

Aren’t brandies distilled?

Old Gods of Appalachia: It’s a beautifully made slice of southern folk horror with a slow burn story, the ambience of being lost in the woods, and a narration like a gospel preacher worshipping cthulhu.

The Wrong Station: Well written stand alone weird fiction with a narrator that sounds life the uncanny valley took human form to stare at your tits while trying to pick you up at a bar. The content ranges from period pieces to high sci-fi, app with a horror lean and the into is fantastic.

Knifepoint Horror: Soren Narnia, of all the names, seems to do these alone. There’s no into, no talk, just right into a story and right out, leaving you to think about what you just listened to. The production value is great, the content is amazing, and there’s a mystique to it that others lack.

I haven’t heard this since I was maybe 6? Damn I forgot how fun dead milkmen were.

Sam’s club. It’s the same quality as the rest of the corpos but it’s the only one that’s affordable.

While my initial reaction to this was “wholly fuck that’s expensive” I realize that all those modifiers would make it close to a grand at a glasses shop.

I got mine for $30, they can make them mute expensive, but for just glasses, it’s perfect.

I’m using the Eternity app, ask instances appear on the same feed for me. I assumed that was how the website worked too.

Hispanic market too. They sell it for 90¢/lbs at my favorite but $3 a hunk at the Walmart

There’s exactly what in saying. The only middle class white folk I know are people on the internet, but I’m the only person taking about brewing on the internet that I know, so I’d bet there’s just a lot of offline brewers with their own wild ideas.

Hey, I think I can be an outside voice here, while I am white, I’m poor, queer, and learned homebrewing from my Hispanic father in law making tepache.

Given my experience with the Mexican brewing community and the rural white folk brewers in my area, I think the barrier here is just internet use. My father in law speaks limited English so he’s kind of adverse to forum conservation. The stillers back in my home town didn’t need the internet, they learned it from their parents and talked about it with their neighbors.

For my part, I came here to bridge the gap and make something a little more white, middle-class, straight. My fil’s tepatche is a dinghy grey paint water, mine is a crisp, clear amber. I don’t see any dandelion or mulberry wine here, but champagne yeast makes for a better taste then bread yeast.

If you’re looking for something different, pick a random fruit and see how we’ve used it for alcohol, because we’ve absolutely used it for alcohol.

I wouldn’t let him in, because my partner has very strong feelings about anyone in the house, but if he doesn’t mind waiting outside he’s getting a lot more than a sandwich and water. A full meal is a very rare thing on the street and some bread and Ham isn’t a meal. I always have left overs or prepped meals ready and he’s eating until he’s full. Water is the same, as much as he can stomach.

I’m no barber, but I can trim my own beard so I’m sure I can manage his. If the stars align, I have a real stylist down the street and I’d happy to ask if she has time for a clean and cut.

Most importantly, I’ve got contact info for shelters and food banks. When if I can’t do anything else I can help find someone who can.

As dumb as “to bone death herself” is as an excuse, it’s so much better than we got in the movie.

Really it can only be considered sadism, he absolutely had the power to unmake half of the population from the start of time, they never existed, no one died, no one mourned. Instead picked the option that would hurt the most people at random with absolutely no positive outcomes for anyone left.

That’s exactly my point, he could have made infinite resources, made energy infinite, made resources unnecessary, put the entirety of the universe in Minecraft creative mode, or just make everything into hyper realistic cake. Instead he picks the outcome that hurts the most people.

Thanos was fucking stupid and no amount of “cold logic” bullshit will justify the fact that unlimited cosmic power could have just doubled the universe.
