A fill for @steveharringtonbingo Card 1
Square: C2 - Getting Drunk/High Together
Title: Bathtub Pity Party for Two
Rating: Teen and Up
Word Count: 5,207
Ship(s): Harringroveson, Established Perkingham, Chrissy Cunningham/Carol Perkins/Robin Buckley
Additional Tags: Alternate Universe - Canon Divergence, Alternate Universe - No Upside Down (Stranger Things), Everybody Lives, House Party, Drinking, Drinking & Talking, Lesbian Robin Buckley, Bisexual Steve Harrington. Kissing, Platonic Kissing, Robin Buckley & Steve Harrington Are Best Friends, Crushes, Hangover, Getting Together
Summary: Steve wants a kiss, Robin just wants to shut him up.
Bathtub Pity Party for Two 
Robin is sitting in the bathroom with a bottle of booze and a chaser between her legs at some party she had not really wanted to go to. Yes it had been her idea to come but not for the loud music and grinding bodies. She came because her crushes are here. What a mistake!
Someone shakes the door, it is not locked but it does stick. "Occupied!" She yells in hopes of discouraging anyone from coming in and spoiling her solo pity party. She is not looking to move and she has no desire to see anyone on puke, piss, or worse. She does not need to see any hairy ass jock trying to get it up.
Speaking of hairy jocks, or is it former jock now? Steve ignores her warning and shoulders his way into the bathroom. His face lights up when it lands on her and he slams the door shut behind him. He clicks the lock but it does a one eighty rendering it useless.
"Robin!" Steve grins eyes a little glassy as he slides over, more grace than she has when she has been drinking as he folds himself into the bathtub next to her.
"Hey dingus." Robin takes a gulp of coke from the two liter she grabbed in a hurry down stairs before following it with a sip from the bottle of vodka she also grabbed. She had been aiming for the rum but she was in a hurry to get out of there and find some place to hide. At least it wasn't the crown she grabbed; she cannot stand the stuff since she spent a night puking it up at her cousin's birthday party last year.
Steve makes grabby hands at her and she offers him both, he only takes the vodka downing a big swig before he makes big sad puppy eyes at her. “I’m sad.” She nods as he takes another swig, she is a little sad herself hence the bathtub pity party.
She is taking a sip of the coke when he broaches, "I think we should try kissing." Predictably she chokes, coke coming out of her nostrils and burning. “Just once." Steve says as if that is the issue and not kissing him at all, patting her back as she keeps coughing.

Billy Hargrove Bingo 2022-23
A1 - Possessive Argyle (Argilly /Teen)
Argyle gets a call that Billy is unconscious in the hospital after a fire at Starcourt Mall. He goes to Hawkins to bring him home.
A2 - Compassion (Kingrove /Teen)
The day Billy Hargrove swerved into the parking lot of Hawkins High was the day Patrick McKinney realised he wasn’t alone.
A3 - Starvation (Cunningrove /Teen)
It was New Year's Eve, as the clock struck midnight when Chrissy Cunningham realised that she and Billy Hargrove had more in common than being blonde.
B1 - Tattoos (Mungrove /Teen)
For all his golden splendour, Billy Hargrove faded into Hawkins like some fancy cloth left in the sun for too long. Eddie didn’t want to save Billy Hargrove, but it was a close thing. And it starts with a tattoo.
B2 - Free Space (Billy & El & Max & Will /Gen)
Vecna wouldn’t consider himself an egomaniac. But he was a pretty tough guy to beat. It definitely didn’t hurt his feelings when kids would beat the Mind Flayer, thinking it was the biggest and baddest boss level, only to find that the final level was some guy, and then they would quit the game. Henry was rather proud of his attack combos, he had a defeat rate of 17.5% first try without cheats. But he had a mortal enemy. An Older Brother™.
B3 - Secret Admirer
C1 - The Lock Outside of Billy's Door (Hollogrove /Mature)
There were days when Heather Holloway really, truly hated herself. Days where food tasted horrible, fabric scratched uncomfortably against her skin, and every noise echoed through her head. Her chest would tighten, and tears would well in her eyes, and all she wanted to do was scream. And sometimes, the best thing to do was hate herself with Billy Hargrove.
C2 - First Dance Together (Harringrove /Teen)
Steve knew Billy liked music, really, he did, but Billy never seemed to want to do anything with the music. He was just content to sit back and listen (or violently bang his steering wheel and sing). But he never wanted to dance. aka, 3 times Steve wanted Billy to dance and 1 time he did
C3 - The Party Is Supportive
thanks to @billyhargrovebingo for putting on this event ❤️
i had fun exploring the different relationships between billy and other characters, and i hope you all did too <3

Dirty, Dull And Dangerous, With C2 Ventures Founding Partner Chris Cunningham
Dirty, Dull And Dangerous, With C2 Ventures Founding Partner Chris Cunningham
A podcast interview withChris CunninghamFounding Partner Chris Cunningham spent most of his career in ad tech, including stints at ironSource and Unacast. He founded the mobile social ad company appssavvy back in the day (as in, the year before the first iPhone had even come out). But he doesn’t invest in ad tech.

Fantasy Basketball Rankings 2021: Top 200 cheat sheet
Tumblr media
If you’re feeling underprepared for your fantasy NBA draft, we have you covered with our top 200 fantasy basketball rankings for the 2021-’22 season. Should you take Nikola Jokic, Giannis Antetokounmpo, Luka Doncic, Kevin Durant, or James Harden with the No. 1 pick? How about if your draft slot is later in the first round ? Where do Lakers’ teammates LeBron James, Anthony Davis, and Russell Westbrook rank? Once it gets deeper into the draft, which potential breakout players should you target? Our top 200 cheat sheet can help with the top-tier studs and the later-round sleepers.
Below, you can find each player accompanied by their current team, position eligibility, and position rank. Pay attention to which players are eligible at multiple positions, as that can help with roster flexibility and provide advantages in specific categories. 
DOMINATE YOUR DRAFT: 2021 fantasy basketball cheat sheet
Injuries, surprise busts, and even more surprising breakouts will happen this year. They always do. You can only prepare so much during your draft, but having a solid top 200 at your disposal — along with rankings for each individual position (which can be found directly below) — can go a long way toward feeling good about your roster and having some big holes when the season tips off on Tuesday, Oct. 19.
Good luck in 2021!

You are expected to: · Begin this paper by stating your position on this question clearly and concisely -- take one or the other position (either for or against formality), but not both! · Citing appropriate sources, present the reasons why you take this position. Be sure to make the most effective case you can. · Then present the best evidence you can, again citing appropriate sources, against your position -- that is, establish what counterarguments can be made in response to your original position. · Finally, review your original position in light of the counterarguments, showing how they are inadequate to rebut your original statement. By the end of your paper, you should be able to unequivocally re-affirm your original position.

Hace días les platiqué en Tixuz de las franjas dobles en los autos. Briggs Cunningham, un entusiasta de las carreras de yates, y autos, corredor, constructor de autos, y gran coleccionista. Tuvo el primer Ferrari 166 Spyder Corsa vendido en EU por Luigi Chinetti, así como un Bugatti Royale entre muchos otros autos. En su participación en carreras, lo hizo con Buick, Cadillac, Chrysler, Ford, Jaguares, Ferraris, Porsches, Aston Martin, Chevrolet con quien ganó Le Mans con un Corvette en 1960, así como sus propios autos los C2, C3 y C4. Uno de los primeros socios del SCCA,A él se le ocurrió para poder ver sus autos blancos (por ser el color oficial de los equipos de Estados Unidos) ponerle unas franjas para poderlos localizar más fácil en la pista.

The good old days of racing were also dangerous old days.

The good old days of racing were also dangerous old days. by Louis Galanos Via Flickr: This old photo was taken at Elkhart Lake in the 1950's. It shows Phil Walters in a Cunningham C2-R racer as he bore down on a spectator crossing the track. Walters was going better than 100 mph and was leaning on the car's horn but the good-ole-boy crossing the track seemed oblivious to the danger he was in. Problems like this forced many race promoters to build dedicated tracks instead of using back country roads for racing.

Briggs Cunningham’s Classic Cars Celebrated in Greenwich
If you’re a fan of the automobile, chances are you’ve come across names of some very pivotal figures throughout its history, particularly in American motorsports. Names like, Carroll Shelby, John Fitch, and Chip Ganassi, just to name a few. What about a Mr. Briggs Cunningham?
Mr. Cunningham’s name surfaced recently as the main celebration of this year’s Greenwich Concours d’Elegance, replacing last year’s tribute to the historic cars of Bugatti. That meant showcasing all the cars of Briggs Cunningham. Moreover, the celebration made history as the largest display of Cunningham cars ever showcased at one location. Of all 35 cars, only 33 are said to be left in existence but nonetheless, all 33 made their presence at the Roger Sherman Baldwin Park in Greenwich, Connecticut.
Briggs Cunningham created an archetype, living an opulent and victorious life in motorsports, building and racing his own yachts and cars. In 1954, he was on the cover of Time Magazine. Known initially for his storied career in America’s Cup, Briggs also helped prove to the world that Americans can compete in the 24 Hours of Le Mans, being the first American to compete against the Europeans in 1950. He owned the first Ferrari in America—a 1948 Tipo 166 Spyder Corsa—as well as the first production Mercedes-Benz 300SL Gullwing.
Briggs Swift Cunningham II was born into wealth out of Cincinnati, Ohio. His father was the sole investor in a “floating soap company,” operated by a Mr. William Procter and James Gamble. That almost makes Cunningham as much of a household name in any history lesson on American industrialism as Rockefeller, Mellon, and Carnegie. And while he was a big-time racer, he did make some cars.
Mr. Cunningham didn’t just build his original C2-R and C4-R competition cars, both of which attended this year’s show. In the early 1950s, bouncing off his wins at Road America and Watkins Glen in 1951, and then later at Sebring, Cunningham then went for the true worldly big league: Le Mans. But in order to compete, homologation regulations required participants to produce 25 road-legal production models in order to qualify to compete. So, Mr. Cunningham, known for his go-getter personality, simply went about to make a production vehicle. The result was the Cunningham Continental C3.
Built on modified versions of the original Cunningham C-2R’s ladder-type tubular chassis by a small team of hot rodders in West Palm Beach, the mechanics mounted a 220-horsepower 331 cubic inch OHV Chrysler Hemi V-8 to the frames. The half-completed frames were then shipped across the Atlantic to Turin, Italy, where coachbuilder Vignale fitted either hardtop fastback-style or convertible bodies made of aluminum and steel. In total, Cunningham made 25 examples in total, 20 coupes and five drop-tops.
Because of this long and tedious journey for assembly, with each example taking around two months for completion, they weren’t cheap, costing as much as $15,000 in 1950, or about $160,600 today, making it the most expensive American automobile between 1952 and 1954. That also made the Cunningham roughly two to three times more expensive than the most expensive Cadillac. Some notable owners include Nelson Rockefeller, a Du Pont family member, and more recently Jay Leno.
With a five-speed manual, the C3 is said to be good for a 0-60 mph time of less than seven seconds and a top speed of 150 mph— fast figures then and even today. Altogether, the Cunningham Continental C3 was an iconic gentleman’s GT car of the 1950s immediately upon release.
It was then the IRS stepped in when tax laws came crashing down on Cunningham’s effort producing the C3, bringing production to a halt. Though Cunningham and his team continued racing in Le Mans, later switching to cars from Jaguar, Lister, to the Chevrolet Corvette, and various Porsches. Since then, Cunningham Continental C3s are considered pure automotive royalty in American auto-racing history, with examples today valued at $565,000 in fair condition, to up to $1.2 million in Concours condition, according to Hagerty.
Unfortunately, Cunningham never took home any champion wins from a Le Mans race and instead, placed in the top 10 in every attempt. But his legacy and reputation remain, with Mr. Cunningham passing away in 2003 from complications with Alzheimer’s. More so, Cunningham is immortalized, and his legacy continues with every Continental C3 made, still in existence. Not many automakers can claim that title, no matter the scale and it’s even more hugely impressive when they come together all at once.

Limor Fried Is My New Hero
I'm cross-posting this to both my woodworking blog www.CloseGrain.com and my software engineering blog FlinkAndBlink.blogspot.com (under the LearnToCode label), because even though there's no woodworking in it, this is all about building stuff, so it bridges the worlds. It's the maker ethos. I admit to instant and total nerd-crush. Limor Fried, who goes by the name Ladyada online (for Lady Ada Lovelace, The First Programmer) is the founder of Adafruit. Adafruit is a small electronics manufacturing company in Manhattan, NY, that focuses on teaching electronics to makers of all ages. You can read about them here. Electronics is another of those hobbies that I wanted to pursue as a teenager, but never could due to lack of funds. Fortunately I've advanced beyond that impecunious stage of life, and seeing this has fired instant obsession (hence the shopping list below!). I'm familiar with that feeling of obsession settling on my shoulders. It propelled me into hand tool woodworking, turning into a book. It propelled me into violinmaking. It propelled me into boatbuilding. Each time, the pattern is the same. I buy a bunch of books, watch a bunch of videos, dig through a bunch of blogs and forums, then buy a bunch of tools and start playing. Last year it propelled me into small engine repair and oxy-acetylene welding after I found Taryl Dactyl (yes, blog posts will be forthcoming). Now, in my copious free time (that's a joke, son), I'll finally be realizing that dream to get my hands dirty with electronics. I owe this to Matt Pandina, whom we recently hired at work. It quickly turned out that Matt is a maker and likes sharing information. He has some nice stuff on Google Groups under the moniker artcfox (in fact, one of his articles was coincidentally the answer to the embedded systems programming problem I use when interviewing candidates!). He made a comment about how Adafruit is doing manufacturing in Manhattan, and I asked, "Who's Adafruit?". That was all it took. Thanks, Matt! I was tickled to read Fried's favorite quote in the Entrepreneur Magazine article about her:
“We are what we celebrate.” —entrepreneur and inventor Dean Kamen.
Kamen is one of my other heroes. She whose hero is my hero is my hero! I managed to score his autograph at the 2015 MassMEDIC conference. I was at the 2015 Embedded Systems Conference (ESC Boston), which was being held concurrently at the Boston Convention Center. When I saw Kamen listed as keynote speaker, I scooted down early and got a chance to talk to him and tell him I wanted to work for him (he probably gets a lot of stalker geeks like that!). Came close the following year, but logistics didn't work out. Electronics Learning Resources On the business side, Adafruit sells kits, parts, tools, and books. That's pretty cool (along with being able to pull off a manufacturing operation in Manhattan). But what's truly spectacular about them is their online learning resources. Fried is a big proponent of open source, sharing the knowledge. So the Adafruit website is chock full of information. There's also an extensive YouTube channel. You'll also finds lots of cross-pollination with others in the maker community. There are magazines, blogs, and videos by the score, by independent makers like Matt, and by larger organizations. I've just barely begun to scratch the surface. This is great, because I know how to program embedded systems, but I don't know much about the components that go into them and connect to them. It's the combination of hardware and software that really makes something work. Pretty much everything I know about digital electronics I owe to Forrest P. Mims 35 years ago. Now, after that brief hiatus, I can take the next step. Basic Electronics Lab Skills Among the resources is a series of very accessible quick guides and videos by Collin Cunningham. Of particular interest to the electronics beginner such as myself is this set of basic electronics lab skills (you can scan through all these quickly for quick grok of the big picture by setting the speed in the YouTube window settings (the gear icon) to 2x, then come back and watch at normal speed for a second pass):
Soldering and Desoldering: how to solder components together properly, and how to pull them apart for salvage and rework.
Surface Mount Soldering: how to solder surface-mount components.
Multimeters: how to use a meter for basic measurements.
Oscilloscopes: how to use an oscilloscope for advanced measurements and waveforms.
Hand Tools: the basic hand tools used for assembling and disassembling electronics.
Schematics: how to read schematics (no, they're not Greek!).
Breadboards and Perfboards: how to combine the parts on a schematic into a functioning circuit.
Ohm's Law: understanding the relationship between voltage, current, and resistance.
Once you have these skills, you are unleashed. Just like hand tool woodworking, it takes a little investment in tools and equipment, and a little time practicing with them. These form the basis of the shopping list below. And of course they lead to lots of other interesting videos, like Collin's videos on the basics of various components:
Batteries: the basics of using batteries to supply DC power to projects.
Solar Cells: using solar cells to keep the batteries charged.
Power Supplies: using an AC power supply to supply DC power to projects.
Pulse Width Modulation: using a PWM converter to change DC input voltage to lower effective DC voltage, or as a simple digital-to-analog converter (DAC).
Switches: understanding the different types of switches for manually controlling projects. 
The Transistor
The Capacitor
The Diode
The Inductor
The Resistor
The LED
The Integrated Circuit (IC)
The Arduino
