I’m seeing a technical death metal and brutal death metal show at a tiny venue that has 90s WWE on the bar TV and serves $3 beers. The kind of place where you are 2 feet from the musicians. Defeated Sanity from Germany and Stabbing from Texas are at the top of the bill. Two others at the bottom I have not heard yet.

It’s gonna be done in 20 minutes. Come over.

I’m cooking a pork roast to eat this week and I’m going to a concert next week. I also just bought a 15 pack of beer. Amazing things happening over here.

I haven’t noticed that yet. A lot of the goop is from decayed duckweed and poo debris getting jammed near the impeller. Might take 3-6 months for the impeller to get stopped by the goop. Vaseline isn’t a very good long term lubricant for aquarium impellers because you’ll open it up a week or two after being applied and sometimes it will be gone (probably sucked out and globbed somewhere else inside the filter). Really good temporary solution though.

I use it after cleaning the impeller on my aquarium filters. They naturally collect goop around the magnet bit of the impeller which makes them quiet, but eventually there will be too much goop and they stop spinning or make a horrible racket. If you clean it off all the way it will buzz and rattle for a while. A big blob of vaseline will quiet it down until the goop builds back up.

There are certanly a lot of very not nice places in the city. You probably don’t want to be walking around them after midnight, but there is also no reason to be in these places at night as a visitor.

The downtown area is relatively safe (some recent gun clown activity in nightlife areas but it’s the USA after all) and populated.

The city has come a long way since the bankruptcy in 2013. It had been struggling for decades before this too. Industry and population leaving the city for the suburbs. The stereotype comes from this and it’s hard to move on from because the city stil hasn’t even though it’s made some big steps.

It’s not a perfect city but having basic street smarts you would use in any other city will keep you out of trouble.

Most of my Reddit commenting was done on threads for people looking for advice in one of my hobbies. I generally had a good experience giving feedback here since most people in the subreddit were level headed. Sometimes you got the occasional asshole parroting the usual online “best way to do something” that goes against some people’s actual real life experience that is being shared.

I didn’t really make any meaningful (non joke) comments outside of this subreddit since I didn’t feel like getting some dick in my notifications trying to start a fight over whatever I posted. Sometimes I didn’t mind battling the dicks in the hobby subreddit since people lurking can actually learn or get a different perspective from “No, you shouldn’t take what’s in a listicle as fact. Here is my experience with this.”

The fairy should come dancing by soon, right?

Check out Dracula 3000 if you are looking to laugh at a vampire horror movie featuring Coolio in space.

Can you post what’s on the label of the cap? I think that will help tell us who made the item. I couldn’t find anything searching the number on the board with the company name on the plastic.

Since it says Marines, I’m thinking this is some novelty item that might play Sousa’s Semper Fidelis.
