That's crazy to me. Why would anyone want to be consuming alcohol while shooting?

I know how I am when I smoke, and there's no chance I'd trust handling a firearm. Not because I'm violent or anything when bake (lol who is) but because my reasoning and decision making skills are impaired, maybe I mistake something for something else in a tense moment and something bad happens. Nope. Safe stays locked, and the door to their room gets locked and the key given to someone responsible, or put in the coffee tin. (I don't like coffee and baked me steers clear of it, so I figure it's better to be in there behind several obstructions)

I really do, and I would love to move to a different country.

However, I have no college degree, and no work experience beyond retail/food/3rd-party-labor, and about $200 to my name. Maybe $3000 if I sold all my big stuff, including vehicle.

So the chances of me moving without being a political refugee are low, sadly.

they are all also cool

looks at nurgle

Uhhhhhh I'm not so sure about that one.

But hey, if you want papa nurgle's blessing, go for it.

While the runners these days may not have any kind of satire in mind, it's pretty obvious a large portion of the Imperium is based on a mixture of 1940s German and (80s-now) modern American ideals, as well as capitalism in general. The Eldar are arrogant isolationists and the dark Eldar are gluttonous.

Most of 40k can have parallels drawn to modern society and the dials are all set to overload.

While they may not have a direct point, I do think it still can have a message.

"don't be like this"

Too bad we are failing...

All the teachers are injured and in need of prosthetics and assisting devices, all of them served.

As Rico's dad said, it should be illegal to use schools as recruiting centers.

As far as I know, yes. If it's not, then I should probably stop watching...

But they get pretty self-aware at times, they don't make any of the characters really look like they're doing the "right thing" for too long before they curb back around.

But from the Orkz perspective they’re basically just asking you to join their football game. They’re fun guys.

Different cultures I guess but in my neck of the woods, the hooligans down at the local football club don't rip my arms off if I refuse.

Oh sorry, I just realized I'm whispering.

Apologies.

As deegeese said, Negligent Discharge.

My bad, I tend to think people have more knowledge of obscure things than is normal, I guess.

And I'm in Ohio, so while I technically could find some bit of land to shoot on, there's forests, fields, and cities. Anything in between is private property.

I'm exaggerating a bit, but that's more or less how it feels.

Honestly I don't know. Even when I point out super obvious ones, I'm "reaching to make a point"

[–] SARGE@startrek.website 3 points 8 months ago

I'll be honest, I like playing stellaris but i tend to get burnt out after about 200 years or so, and don't fully know all the game mechanics because of this.

I'll defer to your expertise on this one.

[–] SARGE@startrek.website 4 points 8 months ago

You do make a good point.

I don't go back, and I have no more outdoor ranges to go to that aren't too far away.

I used to go to a childhood friends house but after I moved we kinda drifted apart so it's weird to ask to use their backyard range.

I would love to have the property to put in at least a 100m lane and a large back stop to stop ricochets and the like. Then I don't have to go somewhere people will whinge when I shoot more than twice a minute, and I'm not at risk of an ND coming my way.
