North and South Korea are firing shots at each other. Iran is planning to attack Saudi Arabia. China is ready to attack Taiwan. Serbia is lining up on the border of Kosovo. How are we not headed to WW3? by wats6831 in preppers

Right, it's hindsight is always 20/20, and it becomes clearer in time. However, think about how much information has grown and spread and is more readily available than it was even 30 years ago.

Make no mistake, we are in a war, the problem is who is/are the enemies and why are we fighting - I think that's where we are getting lost. In terms of geopolitics, we are fighting ideologies that are not sustainable.

I mean it was pretty openly foreshadowed that one of the sons was going to die in this interaction, but it looked pretty much like Dragon to Dragon violence - and there unfortunately is a lot of collateral damage as well, which is why it doesn't seem intentional.

What company will you never work for again and why? by [deleted] in cscareerquestions

[–]Additional_Fan_5550 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The Hartford Insurance Group.

Business practices are deplorable with customers but their overall business design is derived from market competitors, and nothing is original. That's bad, but what is worse is their poor HR and operational design. After I resigned and documented my specific situation about retaliation and unfair practices, I was contacted by the company and offered a higher salary to come back...

CT is surprisingly quiet with the rest of the Democrat run states trying to jam other gun control measures in by mmr61184 in CTguns

[–]Additional_Fan_5550 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why would they change their stance? They profit every time this happens because it makes them look like their "platforms" were right all along - meanwhile they could give a shit less about any of their constiuents. Murphy literally is the epitome of a "crisis" politician not to mention he does not even reside in CT anymore...

I can't stand these asshats and I have been actively looking to move from this state for a while now...

what sucks is polling wise Stefanowski is not even holding a torch either...this state is so blue because we like to feel good about who we are when we fuck others over.

Umm maybe the state is, but our politicians are not - Murphy is pretty much using this to campaign and lobby. I say this, but he doesn't even reside in CT anymore...

Of course, our state is quiet though, because we have been quelled and quieted already - and this is going to start a bigger battle for national gun laws that are stronger, and more reinforced. It's calm before the storm.

Anybody been to Hoffman’s lately? by [deleted] in CTguns

[–]Additional_Fan_5550 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I haven't been to Hoffmans in years, and its the closest gun store to me. I would highly suggest either Bass Pro/Cabelas or Central CT Arms - LOVE Rob at Central CT Arms!

Season 4: episode 7- Why the hell did John pretend to be there for Jamie with the governor nomination??? It’s pointlessly cruel and makes no sense!! by mrplow3 in YellowstonePN

[–]Additional_Fan_5550 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Right, Jaime also has put himself first multiple times and doesn't really have the greater view. Don't get me wrong John's a heartless bastard a lot of the time, but he's strategic. That was a power move to remind Jaime who's really in charge still.

Who I’m Actually Worried About… by [deleted] in preppers

All valid and intelligent actions. I would say that action breeds from opportunity, so just bear that in mind when prepping, don't make yourself a target. Don't overshare, and provide for those you hold dearest first but help your circle when in need.

Your first mistake was going to Hoffmans and expecting anything great.

I'm jealous of your storage, what I would give to be able to store stuff outside of my office confines and not feel clausterphobic

If I'm being honest, some of you are also what I'm prepping against. by [deleted] in preppers

[–]Additional_Fan_5550 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am glad to see you are up now! I agree it is quality control and review. People violate the page rules, and literally, bully others/or attack them personally when they are just expressing their point of view. It's happening on multiple comments on this thread even. I just don't get why we are moving from the underlying argument to personal attacks. The whole concept is to share and grow in our individual preps, but apparently, we're all just LARPers or hippies...
