The General Thread

I fucking hate technology. I try to set up a mobile banking app and it just keeps erroring out when I try to set it up. I try to buy tickets to a concert and the site errors out when I try to place the order. I try to access my state license with the DoH and the site errors out when I try to log in. I genuinely don't know if I'm just stupid, really unlucky, or if faggots just don't know how to make a website/app that fucking works.

I was suddenly reminded of Kevin Hart’s existence and then realized I haven’t seen that Pygmy pushed down our throats in awhile and that’s a good thing.

Termites are swarming in my garden rn. I plan on using most of them as feeders but if some pair up, I might start up a colony.

Engine #2102 of the Reading Blue Mountain & Northern has been restored to full operation.

It had been "retired" in 1991 to museum piece status when it's boiler reached the end of it's safe maintenance interval. Fortunately, restoring it was a passion project of the railroad, and they were willing to pay the $1 million price tag over the years to slowly refurbish it in stages.

Last month, they had it pull an actual revenue freight train down the line as a kind of "shakedown cruise" before going back into regular excursion service.

And yes, they threw an old-school caboose on the end, why not?



A 4-8-4 "Northern" type locomotive is no joke here in PA, about the biggest non-articulated large-driver wheel arrangement you could run on Northeastern tracks due to sharp curves and grades.

So, why's that interesting? Well, there's a family connection to that engine. My Grandfather worked in the Reading engine shops and that was the last engine he helped to build and maintain before he and all the other boilermen like him got pink slips when the railroad went to all-diesel locomotives in 1956. It's interesting to think that some of those rivets are ones he helped put in back when my Dad was only a kid and I was only a statistical probability.

I’m actually curious,If some rich guy who had crazy money had a relative who happened to have a thread here and he or she bribed you into never using the farms again? How much would you take?
 
Met a cockroach today. She said she came up here to work because she just bought a house. Really fucking hope the house is back in that liberal shit hole and I can't imagine moving halfway across the country for work to own a house you don't reside in.

God help us all the Commifornists are the next plagues of Egypt.
 
I genuinely want Kanye West to run for president in 2024. Not because I think he'd be a good president. I'm not  that retarded. I just think that the elections are already a show put on for us by the elites and think it'd be a fun twist to have the white nationalists voting for a black man while the progressive left try to tear him down.
