I went to one of these pre-covid and the group of 30-ish year olds I was with were probably the only people of legal drinking age. There were a LOT of teens and some of their parents looking bored in the corner. We still had a great time though.
It was definitely more of like a Hot Topic/ commercially successful pop punk vibe.

Thanksgiving my spouse & I are doing a round two of a very simple but absurdly delicious duck breast recipe from Hank Shaw. Doing kind of a 'surf and turf' theme with those paired with lobster tails and a bunch of usual Thanksgiving-y sides. Highly recommend this method if anyone wants a taste of duck without dealing with the whole bird.

It was really fun last year. Sang my heart out with other 30-something’s. Definitely recommend.

Yeah, they belong in music jail. I don't think I'll be doing any of these unless I know Lindsey is DJing.

Emo themed nights at venues are hugely popular in bigger cities and always with a very diverse age group. I live in Austin now and these events regularly sell out. I’d say we’re definitely living through an Emo renaissance

This is my major complaint about the other Emo Nite group, Emo Nite LA. Last time I went they were playing No Doubt. I came for Hawthorne Heights and Say Anything, please shut that shit off

Had my first mosh pit there last year. Good times.

Weather here can be quite variable from day to day and even within a 24 hour period (like today, from below freezing to the low 50s), and depending on your activities.
Several thin layers under a thin shell is a practical approach. You can take things off, rearrange layers and never feel too hot, or too cold. Wear a hat. And don't forget that your legs, even under pants, comprise a large area of skin that cools you as a whole, so leggings/longjohns aren't out of the question, especially if you're outside for long periods.
And if you're coming from Chicago, our weather will probably seem balmy.

I've had something similar to this for the past three years and you won't need anything warmer than that in RVA. If it gets EXTRA cold for a few days a year as it tends to here, I just put on an extra sweater underneath and I'm fine.

Too much Fall Out Boy, not enough Jawbreaker.

Don’t know about popular, by there’s a channel on SiriusXM called The Emo Project (ch 713) and I listen to it regularly.

Ooh sounds like Purplesaurus Rex. My mom would always make that with us- a pitcher with half lemonade mix and half grape Koolaid mix. Delicious.

I have a King Koil queen sized air mattress, it has a hole in it which is why I'm giving it away, i just don't have the tools to fix it. It should be easily fixable though. It's free but any kind of trade would be appreciated.

I love Reddit.... people complain about the idiot drivers then make it hard for cops to bust them. Let them fine the hell out of these tools cutting in and out of traffic at 20 over the speed limit. As long as that's not you, you have nothing to worry about. If it is, enjoy your well-deserved fine.

My boyfriend and I made Ina Garten's cauliflower toast recipe last night with French sourdough from Europa Crust (first time trying them--very good!) and it was TO DIE FOR. Quite heavy, but very satisfying. We used soppressata instead of prosciutto. The cheeses make a cream sauce, and the nutmeg, paprika (we used smoked), and chives gild the lily. My boyfriend kept calling them cauliflower pizzas. Highly recommend!

Selling a Crown 4002 XTi Power Amplifier, four Community MVP 12 Loudspeakers, four TS-90B Telelock Tripods, and the XLR and Speak on chords necessary to run it all. Been in dry storage, everything works perfectly except for some cosmetic scratches and bumps, but functionally all there. Still can’t figure out how to add all photos, PM for those

This might've been weird, but I was going to offer you the six or seven I have--picked right off the plant at the farm I volunteer at...but a few weeks ago. I just checked on them and they're not in such great shape...will be heading to compost. Sorry (if you were even interested in poblanos from an internet stranger in the first place)!

I know what they’re actually for. They’re supposed to provide structural support so that cops can crash into people when they’re performing dangerous and ill advised police chases. Someone ran away, rabid dogs run after
