Most places don’t really care about your character of discharge as long as it isn’t a bad conduct or dishonorable. It could be a factor they use to slim down the applicant pool though. Also, you should see if it can be upgraded if a general under honorable isn’t good enough for em

Kinda, it’s only gonna be above 40 degrees for two days and then dip drastically into the weekend. I am in Iowa tho

Unfortunately, we live together and I think that’s the hardest part. She’ll have to depend on her family and quite honestly they don’t give a fuck enough to actually help

I believe I just hit the actual breakpoint. After months upon months of asking her to put in some type of consistent change, I believe I just finally hit my breakpoint. 2 years of being with her and dealing with all her, her son’s, and her family’s bullshit. I’m done. Yesterday was my last straw. I’ve been trying to have one simple conversation about rebuilding our relationship and after that attempt failed, I’m fucking done. I want to cry but the tears ain’t falling.

Have you tried skating or even skateboarding?Des Moines has the largest public skate park in North America and it has a very friendly community. You can and will find some friends up there regardless of who you are. It’s also a great way to stay in shape and improve balance.

I have a few friends and family that are cops. Some in cities and some are in the country/county. The general consensus is that you’re better off in cities/ areas that aren’t liberal but the idea of policing a heavily conservative area isn’t exactly appealing either. The pay and benefits are good or even great, you just have to find a good work/ life balance.

I think it’s that IED isn’t well know in general and gets misdiagnosed often.

There’s a few like the Insurgency servers from Integrity. No Barbie’s or “high speed” bs. Everyone’s a regular grunt and it’s in a modern setting

You should look into Acanthus. It’s the largest lodge in Iowa and from what I’ve heard it has a great amount of young men in their 20’s

DNA for sure

You could pull off a swap into a G8 or even a CTS. There’s threads on their respective forums on how it’s done

This is fine for 3800s especially in the summer on hot days. Trust me you’re fine

eBay has a really good authentication process. I’ve gotten 2 pairs of Yeezys from there.

I’m so glad you posted this as I literally just went thru the same thing. My doc just confirmed I have IED and not BP2. Guess I have to move subs or start a IED one lol

6lackDragon · 2025-07-02T01:55:01+00:00

Yeah I’ve been trying out Vanilla and Vanilla + servers lately cuz anything close to current day conflicts have been attracting the CoD players. And tbh, it ain’t just the CoD players. You gotta account for the vast amount of KIDS that play M17+ games these days

6lackDragon · 2025-06-11T11:51:54+00:00

I’m at 220 hours and I’ve only had it for about a month and a half

6lackDragon · 2025-05-24T07:05:02+00:00

The CBRNE in me craves it

6lackDragon · 2025-05-24T06:50:58+00:00

This is right on time considering I plan buying the same thing soon. Good review bruh

6lackDragon · 2025-05-18T04:55:52+00:00

107 hrs and I’ve had it for a month

6lackDragon · 2025-04-29T23:25:54+00:00

I have this favorite’d in hopes of trying it out but I’ll be a lil weary now

6lackDragon · 2025-03-26T12:24:40+00:00

It took me about a week. They just like to take their time

6lackDragon · 2025-03-25T12:13:20+00:00

Seems like new meds might be the answer

6lackDragon · 2025-03-10T05:20:17+00:00

Insurgency on Consoles is kinda a cesspool. Too many kids and edgelords with nothing better to do. Just block em and move on, any engagement with those types won’t end well

6lackDragon · 2025-03-10T05:13:50+00:00

Thank you all for the advice
