Also this. Basically, TXDOT orders review of the new Corpus Christi bay bridge after a campus bridge built by the contractors failed. Review found the pylon supports insufficient, but they also found the triangle frame connecting the box frames with cables would merc those cables with almost any sheer force. I believe changes were made, have new contractor and project is moving forward as of late last year.

I actually really enjoy translating the whole comments pages sometimes if I get the meme through context clues, can’t tell if things get lost in translation or German humor is just really odd though…

“…and is listed as a contributor to Project 2025” seriously, fuck this guy, it looks like he’s been snubbed in elections by Republicans, snubbed in elections by Democrats, and other than his Bush-era house committee chair he’s a total loser who sycophanted his way into MAGA relevancy.

I’m biased bc I played oboe in school band but it’s true, a really great sounding oboe goes totally unappreciated. I was asked to do the solo to “Kiss from a Rose” or w/e by Seal and that had probably one of the only mainstream music oboe solos. Sadly the singer went with a different song before the show.

Lol it may be an unpopular opinion but I don’t think we can call mortal Kombat objectively ‘good.’ It’s a cult classic for sure and a fun watch, but for reference it aired at Quakecon’s Master Pancake sat night event one year with the MST3K folks and well… they don’t typically do blockbuster hits

Russell brand, back when he was just a homeopathic, somewhat progressive pseudo-intellectual moron. I remember specifically avoiding Get Him to the Greek bc I thought he was a creep, didn’t think he’d actually be charged with SA though. His pivot to manosphere right wing bullshit doesn’t get enough attention, bc of worse people like Rogan.

Lmao underrated one, and ghost of tom joad
