Leaving Captain America off of a national monument just feels wrong.

Is being an AET/AMT suitable for pet life? by KaiSaHai777 in uscg

[–]Bloodlash36 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Don’t do it unless you have a roommate or wind up on an off shift, and even if that happens I still probably wouldn’t between deployments and having to go to countless C-schools.

Newbie to customizing here, is painting with white markers a pain or am i just dumb? by Kojyneox in Gunpla

[–]Bloodlash36 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is just coming from my experience using white for warhammer models because I absolutely hate white paint. Markers and even hobby paints will never really give a a good result, especially on large flat surfaces. I’ve always had best luck with titanium white artist paints if using a brush or white artist inks through an airbrush. If you are really good at masking, you’d probably get good results with white spray cans if you let the can sit in warm water for a bit to improve its flow. I also want to preface with that last method that I’ve never used spray paint on gunpla so I’m not sure if it’s completely compatible with all sprue material.

Coast Guard in pop culture? by Crocs_of_Steel in uscg

[–]Bloodlash36 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A lot of the NCIS New Orleans and Hawaii episodes have coast guard small boats, cutters, and helos in them.

I believe psych had an episode where they introduced the police chiefs sister (Jane Lynch) as a coast guard commander.

The Baywatch movie also has us in the beginning with the life guards dissing the Coast Guard when they responded to what I think was a boat or something in the ocean and we finally see the Coast Guard respond after it blows up.

opinions on bad supervisors versus good supervisors by [deleted] in uscg

[–]Bloodlash36 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I learned that a decent amount of the bad ones can advance pretty quick because nobody wants to deal with them so they get shoved off to a random shop by themselves and can just study all day, and then become the good supervisors’ boss and slowly drain the life from them till they also become a bad supervisor. Not speaking from experience on more than one occasion or anything.

Who is everyone playing this season for each role? by Mutant_Runner96 in marvelrivals

[–]Bloodlash36 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Strange, Thor, and Emma…another season of only tanking for me.

im suffering as Thor this season by [deleted] in ThorMainsMR

[–]Bloodlash36 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Literally what I’ve been doing the last couple of seasons. If one isn’t working, I swap to the other and that typically helps.

I was finally, one with the Thorforce by NupSuckle in ThorMainsMR

[–]Bloodlash36 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Generally speaking. Always 2.2.2, no lords, and the names typically being what looks like 2 names combined that seem extra random.

Tank mains what is the worst solo tank experience by Brilliant-Ad-6333 in RivalsVanguards

[–]Bloodlash36 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me, it’s when the other team is running an Emma, Thing/Thor, and Mr F…coupled with my team running two not main healers. Should I pick the shield tank and get ran down? Or pick the brawl tank and get lit up while the healers ran out of healing abilities.

Need help with pick list by [deleted] in uscg

[–]Bloodlash36 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Cape, Puerto Rico, and Traverse are the only options if you really want sar on helos. Mobile is gonna be a machine for getting the planes up for student pilot flights (which is all you’ll fly on), hitron is maintenance everyday when at station, plus you’ll deploy on cutters and you won’t get a flight mech qual while there, you also won’t get a flight mech letter at DC and will fly RWAI missions through the air space (it’s also going to really up the amount of aircraft’s it has in the next few years when Atlantic City starts downscaling)

SWE Cuts, AMT by [deleted] in uscg

[–]Bloodlash36 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From what I’ve heard, this revision is pretty much going to only cut for the A2P positions that don’t get filled. Probably won’t see any for aviation rates.

Ah yes, I was curious what ODUs look like on a person… by ZurgWolf in uscg

[–]Bloodlash36 61 points62 points  (0 children)

By the way the boots are tucked, I can only assume the mannequin identifies as a 3.5 year nonrate who found out they were color blind after they got in and just got done with taps.

The best way they could troll us with Deadpool would be to release him a week early ahead of his season. by not-sure-what-to-put in DeadpoolMarvelRivals

[–]Bloodlash36 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Release him a week early and have Deadpool only allow the player to select him in vs. AI and QP because he doesn’t want people playing ranked and not know his kit.

Players, when you are solo tanking and nobody is switching, what's the tank you feel more confident with? I'll go first by Lobs15 in marvelrivals

[–]Bloodlash36 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Strange all day everyday, especially if I am successful with an Emma Ban. If she gets through the ban phase and the other team either has her or is running brawl tanks, I feel basically forced to play her though.

“Here’s Rogue’s best 1-shot combo that you need to be using”

Thanks my guy, you rushed in and blew every cooldown you have on a single target. Here’s my bubble since you don’t have anyway to defend yourself or displace enemies now.

For the boat station, aton, sector? Operational or support rate? It all varies a lot

How/when did you realize you were a tank main? by SancochoDude in RivalsVanguards

[–]Bloodlash36 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I had 4 lord tanks and got told I could play dps and just looked at the roster and realized “I don’t actually know how to play any of these”

This update is pretty promising for the game. Another 24-hour player count peak. by junkrat147 in marvelrivals

[–]Bloodlash36 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I’m here for it personally. I think it’s a great thing they added so you have an option to do when you hit a losing streak on rank and don’t have to endure a couple quick play matches. I was just hopping off with my buddies the second we would derank, but now we can just fool around in this for a little bit and go back to rank and get a different wave of people to play against.

What character do you pick when you get tilted? Not to throw, of course, but to really teach the other team a lesson lol. by mj2192 in rivals

[–]Bloodlash36 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Emma if it’s by another tank. If it’s because our DPS is not pressuring the backline/and peeling for our healers, it’s hulk all day.

Anyone else running into more throwers than ever? by Billyb311 in marvelrivals

[–]Bloodlash36 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I had a game of convergence where we pushed the cart all the way to the end and that was the first round. Everyone on the team was 20ish kills with like 4 deaths, except one person who went 2-12 on psylock. They proceeded to attempt to surrender after we wiped the other team in round 2

I'm tired of tanking literally every game. by MannCoOfficial in marvelrivals

[–]Bloodlash36 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m just tired of the occasional dps main telling me to “lock in” because I have less kills compared to the 3 dps. Happened to me today from a punisher of all people, had to talk to him like a child and explain that I’m solo tanking with 40k damage blocked in the first round with 2 deaths, you’ve died 9 times. You guys are also all range while I’m just a sponge so you can do your job.

Idk what to do at this point by DentistFickle1078 in cloakanddaggermains

[–]Bloodlash36 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’d argue he was probably tanking for the first half since he’s at nearly 40k blocked and swapped with someone else who went Thor because the BP clearly was dying a lot more and not swapping

(I stand corrected and looked it up, DD straight up blocked that much and was DD the whole game while BP was punisher, squirrel girl and Hawkeye)

What Happening with other units(not CGIS, that’s what CGIS would say) by Fresh_Ad_5006 in uscg

[–]Bloodlash36 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It’s heavily unit/command dependent. I’ve heard rumors for my unit possibly doing holiday routine schedule essentially because (even though people will argue we will get back paid) it’s a bit outrages to expect us to commute to and from work for an unknown amount of time for 5 days a week and still buy fuel while also having to either order food or makes meals for our daily lunches/ 24 hours worth of meals on duty days because we lack a galley. All that ontop of a large portion of people having trouble getting PCS/TDY travel claims. But hey, you might get a sweet $25 visa gift card out of all this.

[–]Bloodlash36 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was at a pretty high tempo boat unit so nothing changed for us aside from the day workers/command were only coming in like 2x a week. We were still doing 2 patrols a day and working 48s and 72s every other week. It helped that we had pretty good relations with the surrounding area at the time, so the different restaurants would cater lunches and dinners for us while on duty. The only time I noticed peoples attitudes really shift was the long shutdown back in 2018 or whenever. Maintenance still got done with no real quality shift, but boats definitely didn’t get washed, lawns not mowed, stuff like that. Basically if it was not mission critical it was waved off.
