…Steelers found a way to win under the worst conditions. Yesterday’s classic cold rain AFC North match-up finale once again held season-ending consequences for the loser, with the winner potentially going on yet another 2-team AFC North playoff offering. Still waiting for the media pundits to remark how the division always seems to be the one sending 2 teams to the playoffs.
It was a pre-playoff game all the way – a defensive struggle punctuated with just enough offense to get the job done on the Pittsburgh side. I’d love to see Ben come into the league and go out with a Super Bowl victory. That would be one for the record books even Brady can’t match.
Then last night, in the weirdest elimination scheme anyone can remember, San Diego and Oakland almost played to a tie, eliminating the Steelers. A field goal with 2 seconds left in OT set the playoff stage at the very end of the last game of the season.
Hope for an all-PA Superbowl, once again!Fuckin’ eh.
…keep coming on weekend news shows, fouling the airwaves. Here’s my response to the dis-honorable Mike Rounds from The great State of South Dakota, where imbecile bitch governors and people like Roundass keep driving the country into the dirt.
You really don’t want my attention. cocksucker.Maybe a staffer, too.
Many of the sons-of-bitches seem to have forgotten who they work for. These cocksuckers are just up the road from here…
Those words have always been met with joyous anticipation for military members everywhere. This particular deployment will happen only once, marking an auspicious new beginning for space exploration.
…as long as it doesn’t hurt anybody else. It’s an institutionalized corollary to Darwinism in this country. Seems to be proceeding apace in recent years, considering the Covid death toll now decidedly tilting towards the un-vaccinated. But every so often the law needs to step in, preventing the truly psychotic from causing excessive collateral damage.
Has anybody yet realized the actual problem with being directed to get vaccinated in all this government overreach/freedom bullshyt? You’re too stupid to know what’s good for you. Let’s call it the PC term: Extended Immaturity. It leads to the current Supreme Court case with dimwits running around full of misinformation and lies. Now you’ve managed to paralyze not only the healthcare system, but the country as a whole more-or-less, from an economic standpoint.
Let’s not forget greedy. You have that freedom too. Nice work, fuckwits. I’m talking to you, Zuckerboy – and that bearded twit.
…rolling around on the floor in front of the assembled Senate Chamber, nobody would piss on him to put him out. Can’t even remember the talking points.
Candidate for most pathetic, obsequious POS in the Federal government.
Admittedly, there’s not much room in there despite the emptiness, but let’s cut to the chase. Teeny Weeny Mussolini knew he was probably on the inside track to a tax fraud conviction long before he left office. His options were limited. Staying in office was the one with potentially less litigiously disastrous negative outcomes.
Pretty simple, really: Elect corrupt, lying fuckwits. There’s a long line of them sitting on their shitbag elected asses in DC right behind the fuckwit, right now.
To every one of them, every supporter, every family member, every friend, associate or acquaintance of these people: If you believe or even question the BIG LIE and all it engenders, consider yourself my mortal enemy. Rest assured, I will personally devote every breath of my remaining life to seeing the end of your delusion.
Trump and ALL his supporters from ALL walks of life can go straight to Hell.
Benedict Dotard will be left holding the bag, and his cast of Senate criminals won’t be there to save him this time around..
You tell me. This cretin takes stepping on it to a whole new level of grinding your own dumb dick into the dirt. Maybe he thinks it deflects attention from his support for Shitstain McAssface.
The basic principle/engineering appears sound and seems to work exceedingly well. I haven’t seen any real performance tech specs, but they must be quite efficient. Running a 10/1 diesel/WMO ratio, not a hint of smoke was seen. I’d like 4/1, so we’ll see how it goes. They claim it will run almost a day on a gallon of fuel at moderate settings. That seems to align with the consumption rate I’m seeing initially. There were a couple of extra reasons* for how long I took to put this one together. The main issue I saw was some of the cheesy components included in this particular kit. Tell me how anyone is using this clamp for anything except scamming their customers. Controllers are an issue, and probably the only real shopping point differentiating them as far as I can tell. Most if not all of the accessory materials in the kit are inferior quality. They’re certainly not going to supply pro-grade residential install parts, so perhaps that’s where it translates to the cheap *Chinese diesel heater product category (Webasto knockoff).
It took awhile to gather and fab parts. The fuel line connections seemed iffy, to me. A nylon tube stuck in a rubber tube held with a clamp might work for awhile, so we’ll see how it goes. The air intake tubes are what came with a Fluval FX40 fish filter. That needed upgraded for the aquarium, so it was on-hand and just the right size for a Webasto intake. Exhaust was cobbed up in a few hours of welding from a scrapped desk frame and some steel conduit. The long side is about ten feet overall length, with both intake and exhaust a mm or 2 larger in diameter and thicker gauge than the supplied tin-foil-thin parts. It runs up to around 500° at the port, so I put a 90° bend outside pointing it toward the corner to protect the bushes. A couple pieces of 3/4″ plywood with appropriate holes guide things through the wall ducts.
Fuel and electrical is straightforward: batteries, and related bits plus a tank, tubing and fittings. They include a 10L tank I deemed insufficient for this application. Five gallons and gravity feed with a proper filter makes the fuel supply fairly bulletproof and good for at least a couple days before needing re-filled. Even the fuel petcock I got from a different (Chinese) Amazon source leaked. I am so done with China. Good batteries are the most expensive pieces, by far. There’s room for 4 or 5 of them behind the TV without the CO2 tank there, so I’ll need to do some runtime tests. The cool part was how the whole system integrated more-or-less seamlessly and hidden from view, customized for what we had to work with around that corner. of the house. The bedroom bay window provided a convenient outside place to hang the fuel tank sheltered from sun and rain, hidden behind lilac bushes.
Pumps are noisy and the exhaust makes a wooshing sound like a vacuum cleaner, so the supplied mufflers are probably not useful for much except restricting flow. The heat shields and ceramic insulation was probably overkill, but I didn’t know how hot they ran until after it was in and running. The supplied so-called air filter components will have to suffice temporarily, until proper units arrive. They were ordered two months ago. The vendor says supply chain bottleneck is slowing their pipeline. That could ostensibly be the other reason* held against the schedule. Fortunately I managed to fabricate the most important parts from stuff already on-hand. The extra cooling fans circulating warm air down from the cubby holes are probably unnecessary, but with a 400°f steel tube running through there it does get warm and adds a bit more warm air circulation.
It’s not gonna keep the basement toasty in sub-zero temps. But piggybacked on available APC UPS units, should have enough electrons stored to keep it livable and the aquariums liquid though an extended cold weather electrical outage. I’ll put a solar panel up on the shed to charge the batteries at some point. That battery bank will eventually grow to become integrated with the panels already on the house. Our grid’s winterized, but that’s not the only threat to it. We’re passing on some of what happened in Texas last year. Enough batteries, and we’ll eventually pass on the grid altogether.
Things were right with the world in Steeler Nation last night, despite slim-to-no hope for a wildcard berth. The Defense hammered Cleveland into submission once again, and MNF set the stage for a hometown sendoff Ben will not soon forget. A Jacksonville victory seems unlikely next week, but there’s another wildcard called Covid this season. Just remember an unlikely 2005 Super Bowl run starting with a 2nd year rookie quarterback on a wildcard bid.
“Greene, in a statement following her Twitter suspension, said Twitter was an “enemy to America and can’t handle the truth.”
What Twitter™ and anyone with a lick of common sense for that matter can’t handle, is lies and bullshyt. Perhaps a little remedial civics study and a cattle prod up her ass would enlighten this imbecile?
I don’t think they let you use Twitter in jail either, so get used to it.
