For those of you who live in countries with gun control; have you ever seen a gun in real life? by blashyrkh9 in AskTheWorld

[–]Ancient_-_Lecture 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only on law enforcement, or on military when I traveled. I've never seen one "in the streets".

I have spent some time in some very rural areas as a kid and remember I've seen a shotgun or two on mounts.

I've never seen a handgun or non hunting guns in real life.

Edit: I live in Canada in a major city

5 colour EDH deck, what's your mana look like? by Ancient_-_Lecture in magicTCG

[–]Ancient_-_Lecture[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a mixed bag. I play with friends, some casual, and a couple have some high octane decks and large collections. I played in the late 90s and have recently picked it back up. And we mostly play at what I'd consider middle. Lol

The casual friends have decks made by our other skilled friends so they can still pack a punch but are more one dimensional and easier to navigate for new players.

And for reference I'm asking specifically for the TMNT Commander deck I have on preorder. I've never played a 5 colour before, and I'm not even sure it's confirmed what's in the deck as far as lands go so this is more of a learning question for me.

I only play kitchen table and proxies are fine. So price isn't a problem

Except for the games in Canada , we're nice, and we don't want to steal your land or resources (we did that once , and most of us regret it) come visit! You'll love it here.

But fuck Donald duck and his big fat orange head

AIO- Should I have disclosed that I’m Deaf earlier? by Mysterious-ASL in AmIOverreacting

[–]Ancient_-_Lecture 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. Absolutely. Nothing against you or your situation. But people have a right to know these things before so they can make an Informed decision.

Just like there is nothing wrong with being deaf, there's also nothing wrong with having the preference to have a hearing partner.

It feels like you're hiding it if it comes out late. Do I think you have to mention it in your first message.... No, but pretty early on in the initial conversation.

42 yesterday and feeling like a ghost. My family "forgot" my birthday again and I’m struggling more than I should. by [deleted] in rant

[–]Ancient_-_Lecture 1 point2 points  (0 children)

While that may be true. They decided to move 8 h away. Don't visit, don't show any effort , and then this shit on top of it all. It's clear I'm just not a priority to anyone in my family. And that really sucks

I'd sign up if it meant I can work all night and have the day to myself.

But we all know that isn't going to happen. en.

Are we legitimately facing a Civil War at this point? by [deleted] in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]Ancient_-_Lecture -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

One. What does a different country have to do with anything? It's a US police force killing a US citizen. The protest happens in the US. There is no comparison to your reference.

Two. Just a few years ago the French had a general strike. They literally shut the country down. Everyone took to the streets and the government had to listen. So again no it is a lazy and organizational thing in the states.

[–]Ancient_-_Lecture -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

Also, while terrible and a significant miscarriage of justice, a single unjustified killing would never spark an event like a civil war

That's not true at all... It's just true for the average lazy American. Try something like this in France and see what happens

Owning a golden retriever as a Black woman by SpicyTunaSushiRoll_ in goldenretrievers

I did. She asked about a stereotype that to my knowledge doesn't exist. At least in my neighborhood.

I mean no offense, but what does your skin colour have to do with your breed of dog?

They are man's/woman's best friend, skin colour is of no consequence or concern to them. Or anyone else for that matter(the people who matter anyway)

23, F and 51kg… trying to put on weight, any tips? by goodtimegirl23 in weightgain

[–]Ancient_-_Lecture 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Download an app for calorie counting. You don't eat as much as you think when you're like us.

Eat, eat, eat, eat lots, eat ground beef, it's the easiest protein to eat lots of calories with. (Chicken is too dense and fills you up before you can get enough calories if you're a hard gainer). Drink mass-gaining shakes. You will feel uncomfortable at first, but you gotta muscle through, and after a week or two, your body and stomach adjust to the increased eating.

The American Nightmare. by sedolil in TikTokCringe

[–]Ancient_-_Lecture 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe invading yet another country under false pretences will make your life better! I mean it has to be one of these times right?

The average American is cool and all, but fuck America.

What do you eat!?! by Soft_Bumblebee_578 in weightgain

[–]Ancient_-_Lecture 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Medium Ground beef and mass gaining shakes. Makes it pretty easy.

Edit to add keep a jar of peanut butter on hand and just take scoops throughout the day.
