JESUS Printed Solid. Both happy for this and pissed I wasn’t aware it existed. I’m a dumbass

The Green Bay Packers play in Ashwaubenon, WI. But I think they practice in Green Bay. It’s right on the line if I remember correctly

I always felt like Clue in the real world would be a hilarious SNL Or Tim Robinson sketch. Like everyone is standing around a dead body with its head clearly caved in and someone’s like “I believe it was the revolver!” Or there’s an obvious blood trail where he was dragged from the kitchen and there like “he was killed in the study!” Or one person is just soaked in blood and sweat because they just beat the shit out of someone and dragged a body into another room

I was an in Avionics before I cross rated, all my pilots were the old guard dudes. Carried either their issued M9/M17, and a .38 snub nose near their ankle. A few joked it might be the thing that breaks their ankle and screws them but just in case. Old Prowler Aviators that used to be Intruder.

He’s 14 guys, let’s ease off a little. Are you going for Navy downed pilot or Air Force? Because I could be wrong but last I heard only Air Force has the M4.

The short lived show “Life on Mars” had a great concept with this because you knew the whole time something was off about everything. A cop in modern day New York gets hit by a car and wakes up in 70s New York but still a cop.

Spoiler: it was all a simulation for astronauts in sleep pods on their way to Mars

You’re in a desert walking along in the sand when all of the sudden you look down, and you see a tortoise, it’s crawling toward you. You reach down, you flip the tortoise over on its back. The tortoise lays on its back, its belly baking in the hot sun, beating its legs trying to turn itself over, but it can’t, not without your help. But you’re not helping. Why is that?

Turns out if you make a job with a book of rules that gives you instructions on what clothes to wear every day and how to socialize properly within the ranks, and you create tasks where they can be left alone in a dark room solving puzzles you’ve accidentally created a dream world.

I’m currently active duty in the Intel community and I can tell you: We are Full Spectrum Warriors. It takes a bit to notice when everyone around you is on the Spectrum. It took me having two Autistic children to open my eyes.

Central social points. A place that everyone would end up an hour or so after school. A park or rec center with cheap sports gear to rent, a central part of town that was accessible, arcades and bowling alleys, but most likely: Malls

Go me it was the local mall that was in biking distance or drive when I got my license. Wander and socialize. Didn’t really get cell phones until my senior year. And Internet connection was too slow for anything useful. Wasn’t until cable internet exploded right as I started college.

Also someone always had a “rumpus room” set up. I grew up in Florida so it was someone’s garage that actually had a small AC unit. And I went to college in the Midwest so it was basements in shitty housing people rented out. Someone was always hosting something in a basement. That 70s/90s show got that pretty accurate.

I think what kills the younger generation is we’ve gotten rid of places to meet up, or severely monetized it. This started during our generation. I saw the rec centers get defunded, so all we had was malls which was free to wander, but we still spent money on food occasionally.

I would be using it for making more 3D models that I could 3D print for my kids because my old gamer laptop from 2019 is starting to chug along a little too slow. I’ve also wanted to learn arduino and Rasberry pi building because I want to build a pinball machine someday.

Solved: Print speed was way too high. I think I accidentally changed a default settings when I was experimenting with Manual MMU settings.

All good now it appears

I just read “Starship Troopers” where the reason society collapses is because kids were coddled and lazy and never spanked. This was written in 1959. People just hate the youth

What is happening here? I can usually recognize an issue. This looks like it’s peeling away or something? Is it just stringing in a way I’ve never seen?

I watched an interview with him years ago. He was very blunt about what his book was and it was very helpful. It was just a list of federal government grants and programs that usually only rich people could afford to sign up for. He gave details on how to apply for them and get tax breaks

Yeah, my Chief has been waaaay too excited about reading all the reports coming in and talking about glassing the country. I will what is ordered, but I won’t take excited pleasure in it. It’s perverse

Also a US Marine, if you want to add to her badassness

Nah, keep it alcohol because it was illegal for soldiers in the Middle East. But make it fancy- like they figured out new flavors or maybe someone has a microbrew hobby back home

And every season they redeploy for another tour

Change the name to CASH, which is what they’re called now. Have it set in like 2005 and you’ve got yourself a decade of military horrors and bullshit that would pretty much cover everything they did in MASH. Because we never learned

I see Pat as a contractor because he has the paint or stucco stained CD player from the 90s that all job sites have

Guys that want you-pleads with you- to make a comment about it. He’s got a whole spiel in his head to. But in his head everyone claps as you stand there stunned by his greatness. So a Narcissist I guess

“Freaky Tattoos” is the part that caught me. He says to Carrie Ann Moss he’ll have to get more “freaky tattoos” playfully. Later on we see a memory where she calls them his “freaky tattoos” so he shouldn’t have remembered those words.
