My weather app saying 5-8" for NOLA and its started, wild stuff. Meanwhile it’s -20F here but we have no snow
It’s a dry cold
Took my family to a recently opened new arcade in town. ~$1 for a super magnetized pinball. WTF?
Trump has my vote in 2028 if he can bring down the price of pinball.
Actually not an unreasonable price in 2025 dollars!
Pinball machines are extraordinarily expensive, it honestly probably should be more. I looked into maintaining one and quickly noped out
yeah they eventually break and usually aren’t cheap to fix take some work
There’s an arcade at all is amazing in 2025. There aren’t many around anymore.
this place is ~75 seconds from my house
If youre ever in NJ, Silverball Museum in Asbury is pretty neat. Bunch of retro pinball machines and other arcade games, old baseball games, some really unique stuff, and a couple modern games. All set to free play. Daily pass is reasonable.
your package has arrived, me uh it’s in the mail box, which is a block over, walks to mail box comes back felt like 20 below zero wtf
weather report “feels like 20 below” thanks a lot trump.
There’s one of these in Delray. It’s great.
I’m torn between trying to get my car off this sheet of ice today and waiting for tomorrow when it will be a little warmer. The ice sheet formed due to an unrepaired city waterline leak so there will probably be more ice tomorrow. Man I hate winter.
Edit: Got it out. Neighbor less lucky.
Costco is out of Diet Pepsi and stopped selling 6 packs of muffins. Fucking Trump…
Substack is down and everyone is wondering if Trump banned it.
Looks like they found the issue about 6 minutes ago and things are coming back up.
It’s happening again. Every thread on here. Every news story. Every conversation is about Trump. He is sucking up all the oxygen on earth.
Fuckfuckfuckfuckfuckfuckduckduckdu
Even in crypto, he and his idiot wife launched coins that are sucking all the attention
Ours had 1br 1ba and a loft, but even back then my half was $600 because it was a “condo” right on the “water”. Unless my buddy was screwing me. I never saw any rent statements.
Fuck
Goose?
As an aside, there’s no evidence that the Roman ever gave a ‘Roman salute’
Classicist Martin M. Winkler took on the modern creation of the salute in his 2009 book The Roman Salute: Cinema, History, Ideology, concluding that it began with David’s “The Oath of the Horatii” depicting an early story as described by the Roman historian Livy. Winkler casts this painting as the “starting point for an arresting gesture that progressed from oath-taking to what will become known as the Roman salute” — the precursor to the invention of the “Bellamy salute” in 1892.
Winkler argues that Mussolini and the Fascist Party of Italy later drew on films and misinterpretations of art in the development of their signature salute around 1925. In Germany, the word heil (“hail”) was already used as a form of greeting in the early 20th century. A version of the Nazi salute later adapted by Hitler was used by Georg Ritter von Schönerer, the leader of the extremist German nationalist party in Austria, as historian Wolfgang Schieder has written. Hitler, however, admitted in 1942 that he followed Mussolini’s lead, adding the salute to the greeting.
Since the beginning of Trump’s first presidency, neo-Nazis have used the idea of the “Roman salute” to cloak their violent beliefs in apocryphal ancient history and make themselves more palatable to a popular audience. In a 2018 article, classics professor Curtis Dozier discussed the use of the salute by white supremacists and neo-Nazi groups by pointing to a journalist speaking to Jeff Schoep, former head of the National Socialist Movement (NSM). During a video of the exchange filmed by the journalist, Schoep disputed the term “Nazi salute” and claimed the gesture used during the rally was instead a “Roman salute.” Dozier pointed out that Schoep’s insistence that the gesture was distinct from the Nazi salute was “part of NSM’s effort, announced in November 2016, to ‘re-brand’ their movement and ‘launch [the] party into the mainstream.’”
