Did Beltway Car Care relocate, or are they dead?

Beltway Car Care (later Birdies?) on Georgia Ave always gave me a good deal and didn't try to get more money out of me than needed.

I saw a new place was going up in that spot, but I dont think its the same company.

ULPT Request: Something to piss off asshole drivers.

So as a bike rider, I am almost completely invisible to drivers. The number of close calls I have had are insane. Cops won't do shit...even with video evidence.

So how do I teach them a lesson? Preferably without causing me to spend money.

For example, I've been thinking of adding a basket full of rocks and just throw them at the cars. But inevitably I will likely have to pay damages.

Maybe something like a water balloon of paint? Not causing damage, but a real pain in the ass to get off?

Remember that it has to be fast as the car is usually gone in seconds and a biker won't be able to keep up.

Anyone know this jerk?

I was in the bike lane when they cut right in front of me, nearly hitting me. I am so sick of the shitty driver fucks in Silver Spring.

I've had so many altercations with cars while on my bike that every time I catch one being an asshole, I publicly shame them.

EDIT: HA! Looks like either the culprit or a friend of theirs (Probably a fellow DELTA SIGMA THETA member) has found this post and is now going through downvoting people because the truth hurts! Fuck you, pal!

EDIT 2: HA! Someone reported this post for giving away personal information. Jokes on you pal, tags are public information. I have no information of the person who was driving.
So while Reddit took this down for the perceived rule violation, WE ARE BACK BABY!

Who the flying fuck at CB is an actual elf?

Syennan is utterly busted. The fact that Hegemony was nerfed over the years and not elves is utterly dumb and a real negative play experience.

How would you classify the Aureus Alexander 3?

As close as it would be possible to classify it that is. What is it supposed to represent the most?

​

I was thinking type XVIa because the fuller sort of disappears about half way down the blade.

​

Or XVIIIb as its two handed and slim.

​

Since its out of production, I can't seem to find anything about what they were trying to make on the Aureus website.

Could I ask you good folks for help with my tree?

As you can see, that one branch is just...sad. Looks like they tried to fix it several times. Several cuts made before I bought the place.

​

A friend said its weakening the tree, but I'd live to know what you folks think.

​

Should I remove it? How do I remove it properly?

Aphaenogaster?

This IS a queen, right?

She still has her wings, but I found her on the ground and a couple of males on my white car in the middle of a parking lot arou d 1030pm. No nest nearby that I could see.

She should be fertile, right?

Or am I completely off on everything here? Still learning, ya know.

Found a bunch of alates

Males and females.

I guess it does no good to collect now, even if you can collect males AND females? Or will they mate later?

What do folks use for safe, supplemental, outdoor heat?

I'm building a cold frame for my dude so he can stay outside year round (brumate during winter). Radiant heat panel with thermostat? Or are there better/easier options?

Getting my 'backyard' ready for a new dood! Any advice for improvements?

Once the veggies get growing I'm hoping he'll have lots of leafy snacks haning over. I'll be adding some other things for him to explore, block line of sight, places to hide things to play with, etc...
