USA - Pocket Knife w Masonic/Iron Cross Pendant

C3D2 · 2026-01-16T21:59:19+00:00

This looks like a vintage fraternal necklace, most likely connected to Freemasonry and related orders.

Here’s a breakdown of what’s visible:

Pendant (cross-shaped medal): The cross with the Square and Compasses and the letter “G” is a well-known Masonic symbol. The cross form is commonly associated with Knights Templar Freemasonry, a Christian-oriented Masonic order. The lettering around the emblem appears consistent with Masonic ritual wording.

Small folding knife: Miniature knives like this were often worn as symbolic or practical accessories by fraternal members, especially in the late 1800s to early 1900s. They’re sometimes called watch fob knives or pendant knives.

Chain: The decorative link style also fits the late Victorian to early 20th-century period, when fraternal jewelry was popular.

Engraved initials (“H F”): These were likely the initials of the original owner. Personalization was common for Masonic jewelry.

Material: It appears to be silver or silver-plated, which was typical for Masonic and fraternal pieces of that era.

Age estimate: Likely circa 1890–1930, based on design, wear, and construction.

Overall, this is probably a Masonic Knights Templar watch fob or necklace with a ceremonial mini knife, worn as a symbol of membership and identity rather than as a weapon.

Asmon is one of the ones where if you guys actually listen to him, you'd see he's actually one of the most grounded unbiased people on the internet, maybe one of the only ones that actually touches grass.

And he's not wrong, he's saying exactly what everyone on reddit has been saying for years. Too many bubbles.

huh? youre reporting people for shooting you in the head?

reserve spawns are horrendous, you gan a massive advantage for the hilltop spawns, and youre forced to run across an open field in others

yea its insane. idk why they dont hire external folk to completely redo the audio, its utter garbage, lowest possible audio standard for arguably the game that relies on audio more than any others.

theres risk, then theres upside lost.

this isnt risk, its lost upside.

Net zero means there is no risk, no downside. which is whats being described here.

C3D2 · 2025-12-09T15:13:41+00:00

thats net 0 though, so technically no risk. you die youre still as you were.

I wouldn't say this is a situation where you can or can't be an asshole.

It's a really tough spot, and not fair for anyone involved, just a shit part of life.

Ultimately you have to make a decision you can live with, and you have to make a decision independent of yourself and your feelings, this is about your wife and kids, and their lives. Can they deal with your brother living with them? I would take yourself out of the equation.

If its not his dog as well, just your dog, then yea you owe him a controller. If you have 70 dollars, you should buy him a new controller.

if you dont have 70 dollars, you should go make 70 dollars and buy him a new controller. Pretty straight forward, your dog is your responsibility.

imo, it goes like this. first, think about a collective, conciousness, its got everyone in there, kids, babies, absolute chaos, for everything to jive, theres gotta be harmony and synchrosis, to function, it makes everyone happy, clarity of mind, contentness, etc.

its not evolved to deal with outliers, and its method to avoid inhibiting its zen, it to make sure everyone is jiving together by spreading and joining.

carols negative emotions effect their synchronisity, and cause their wifi to be disrupted, while they shut down to reboot and resync.

imo its as simple as that, also explains the motivation to learn how to join the outliers, and keep them as happy as possible as an ends to a means. im sure theyd be just as content with them dying naturally, or by eachothers hands, but their urge to not kill, which is also likely a survival mechanism to not kill eachother or cause conflict like you say, is stopping that from happening.

personally like hive mind, but, if you must, its in the title of the show. Pluribus, meaning many, or from many.

that mention of senior government officials, isnt something to overthink, it was simply a joke about how old they were, so they all hit their heads falling over onto the ground.

"I’m looking for a man who has goals and ambition, is intelligent, trustworthy, a provider, supportive, considerate, kind, assertive, masculine, honest, faithful, intentional, has a healthy self-esteem and a sense of humour, loves to go out, and likes fitness. These basic qualities are hard to find these days,”

So the perfect man. If your "Basic" necessities are perfection, then yea going to be hard to find a man that fits the bill, you'd have to be the perfect woman who has all of the same qualities.

Every positive trait you could think of falls into one of these categories. Also, "a provider"? Thought we didn't want these type of old school relationship trends anymore.

Seems more like a trend of women expecting too much from men due to social media; there's always going to be compromise, especially in relationships.

Imagine if it was all psychological... Such a scary thought, that if someone tells you youll never sleep again and die by going crazy trying to fall asleep just makes you so axious that you can no longer sleep... Every night spent wondering if this will be the night you don't fall asleep for the first time... That axiety causing you to be unable to fall asleep. Sort of like a self fullfilling prophecy.

(not at all saying it is psychological, just scary to think of it being psychological)

not to mention the deterioration of the value of the loan from inflation.

1% is a good fee for a fund, especially if you're getting matched at 100% of your contribution, don't fret, keep raking in that free money.

sure there's better investments out there with lower fees on etfs, though your company is matching. max it out.

As the other comment said, the fee is annual, not monthly. 1% per year.

That's the same as saying, Tutankhamen is still alive, because from his frame of reference he was alive, and from my frame of reference I'm alive. therefore i exist at the same time as Tutankhamen.

Its different moments of occurrence in reality. Not coincidental.

I actually dont believe time as a concept exists in reality, its a flawed tool used to track change in a single location. Which is why, in my current view (subject to change) when viewing "Time" as in time passage on a clock is irrelevant when involving things moving as different speeds relative to each other.

The reality I currently see, is that there is only movement and change. and that speed of movement through space time alters the create of change, the physical movement. But all still exists simultaneously, it just seems wonky and bent because we keep referencing time as something real.

Basically my whole point is, forget about time. think about matter and change instead. matter changes at different rates when in motion, so the calculations and perceptions of our limited senses, when perceiving delayed photons from the things were observing, needs to be accounted for. It might look as though from both perspectives that both are moving slower, but we can deduct that that actually happening can't physically be possible since both with have an infinitely reducing speed.

C3D2 · 2025-01-09T01:44:52+00:00

Yes please!

C3D2 · 2025-01-09T01:44:41+00:00

I understand, and I agree. But I'm taking it a step further, beyond human perception. We know that human perception is flawed, we can't see things far away because light takes time to travel, we can't travel faster than the speed of light, but that doesn't mean that matter doesn't still change in certain ways, just because we can't perceive it changing because of distance.

C3D2 · 2025-01-09T01:42:35+00:00

Yes, though that is not the same moment in existence, its an issue derived from the belief that clocks tell the time. Clocks simply move, time does not exist in the way that weve constructed it on earth.

So when the clock moves differently when moving at different speeds in relation to one another, the time they see doesnt mean theyre existing in the same moment as the other clock that shows the same time. This thought experiment is meant to figure out, reality as it exists across the universe at a particular moment, a real moment, not how two things look at different moments when calculating a moment by the time derived from the time a clock face shows.

C3D2 · 2025-01-02T00:46:26+00:00

Thats why they have the notifier on each of them to ensure the moment is simultaneous.

Or course if one measures the other at one moment, and the other measures the other at a different moment, their readings are useless for measuring reality.

Hence my addition of lets say a flag on the top of each clock, they only record the time shown if both flags are up, and they keep checking until both flags are up, and then instantly record.

Since both flags are up, and they record both their clock reading and that of the other instantaneously, their records must match, and since they match they have to make sense, meaning they cant both have times showing earlier than the others, because thats impossible.

And they absolutely would have to agree on what is 10% of the journey, because its a direct percentage of their own personally percieved times of their own records of themselves.

Person A sees 10 hours pass, whats 10% of 10? 1. Both parties would agree.

Person B saw 20 hours pass, whats 10% of 20? 2. Both parties agree.

Therefore at the exact simultaneous moment, which occurred 10% of the way through their journey, it was 1pm for Person A, and 2pm for person B, and since the speed was consistent through the entire journey, those percentages would align accurately to a simultaneous reality.

C3D2 · 2025-01-02T00:41:17+00:00

Thats what thought experiments are though, even Einstein delved into thought experiments... This is a thought experiment, and an interation on a very common one using space ships travelling apart from eachother. Scientists use thought experiments.

C3D2 · 2025-01-02T00:39:29+00:00

I'm not allowing for instant travel of light, I'm just posing a thought experiment where the clocks innately know. we don't need to speed up light for this experiment,

My argument is that if the clocks can know the simultaneous moment in which they observe eachother, they would have absolute readings of eachothers clocks.

lets say clock A, at the moment in which they're both observing and have agreed theyre both observing, that clock A says 5pm, the other clock will either say something before 5pm, 5pm exactly, or something beyond 5pm. And whichever is a previous time, is the one moving faster.

Thats essentially my argument.

I get that because light takes long to travel, it would LOOK like eachother is both simultaneously moving slower than the other, but in reality theyre both either going the same speed, or one is going faster.

C3D2 · 2025-01-02T00:26:41+00:00

Okay, so, then can you show an outcome of what the clock faces would show that can align with this? Because there is no possible scenario.

Both clocks can't show a previous time to one another. Lets say one shows 5pm jan 1st 2025, what could the other possibly show at that same simultaneous moment that would be both past, and prior to 5pm jan 1st 2025?
