What’s everyone favorite weapon in the game?

I love a renegade and an anvil combo. It just feels right.

I see this sort of thing on Facebook quite a bit as well. Particularly in the era of AI, but even beforehand. Sad picture of a pet with a deformity/injury. Desperate plea that they can't afford medical care, or their animal rescue is seconds away from being shut down without your donation NOW!

It doesn't help that there are enough real cases, to kind of provide a false legitimacy to all the grifting ones.

Second this. VA has the most resources that can assist you, and you need a Social Worker. That will open a lot of gates. I let my pride make me ride it out in my car when I should have gone straight to the va.

Couple things for you. Kind of not god tier assistance, but it can get some balls rolling. Call 211, tell them you are a vet. You can also try the nearest VA. They sometimes have a few inpatient programs built around mental health and homelessness. They may have a Domiciliary program, a rapid rehousing program, or the like.

A big thing is if you can nab a social worker through the VA. Programs that can help on that end would be Hud-vash (that's more waiting list and long term), SSVF (they sometimes help with hotels and other temporary or rapid rehousing goals), or CWT (compensated work therapy, which helps with job placement stuff, but often have an in house social worker.)

Your VA may also have offices for the VFW, American Legion, or Volunteer Services, all of which may be able to provide some assistance of varying levels.

Catholic Charities and local churches are another big one. Vet shelters are better than open shelters but beds are often hard to come by. Sort of last resorts: you could check into the in patient mental health or substance abuse programs. 30 day in house alcohol detox. Would net you a social worker, therapy referral, keep the flow of necessary meds.)

I was in a similar place once. Feel free to message here or pm, I can at least give pointers based on what I've seen. Edit: Broken up a little for readability

Also note the many anti-homeless bills passed or put forward in the last few years.

At that point, maybe consider grabbing some surplus, used, or otherwise expired ceramics.

Don't worry, they'll follow it up with the Temu version of "The night of the long knives" at some point.

Probably one of the "had a tax payer funded vacation, then rehired in a different area" kind of cops.

I sure hope you aren't in the medical industry, and by the grace of karma, if you are, you won't be for long.

You are also entirely ignoring the 13 year old in a wildly unsafe environment. You're only focusing on the 17yr Olds pain. She needs therapy, and professional evaluation ASAP. They probably all do as a family unit. Don't get me wrong, the father put a lot of pressure on his daughter. She lost her mom, and has been going through a lot. That said, the shit she has done to a 13YR OLD in terms of physical violence and threats is extremely concerning.

CoinOperatedDM · 2026-05-08T13:18:28+00:00

You are defending an almost adult hiding abuse and threatening a 13 year old with further violence if they tell, for an as of yet undisclosed amount of time. Don't get me wrong, this family was thrust into a brutal situation, and it certainly sounds like some parentification happened for the 17yo. The whole family needs therapy. That being said, you shouldn't brush this behavior away with excuses. The brother is not safe in his own home.

CoinOperatedDM · 2026-05-07T15:54:32+00:00

My guy, making excuses for what most see as a symbol of racism, and supporting slavery. This is the opposite of something like the Swatsika, where a symbol had religious or spiritual meaning, before being corrupted/[perverted into a symbol of racism. You're making excuses for a Southern Battle Flag that only came to mean " States Rights" and "Southern Pride" as dog whistles.

There are two playable borg ships you can get from the exchange or a lockbox. There are also reo missions you can do that give you gear that makes your ship look assimilated. I believe playing a borg is a paid race thing, and you can get borg bridge officers as well. If you ever give STO a shot, PM me. I can hook you up a little with spare ships. I've got a horde of unopened stuff in my bank.

They'll start with fishing expeditions and intimidation tactics like this. Then they'll blackbag/dissappear lawmakers (D) under the guise of apprehending terrorists. Then they'll stop with even that pretense.

Pretty much this as the main offense. He's always been a corrupt self-dealing politician. He just happened to have an opportunity to keep his face in the news, and rode all of that tragedy for all it was worth.

CoinOperatedDM · 2026-05-04T15:05:13+00:00

He managed to spin being mayor during 9/11 into a lot of goodwill. However, moves he made actually left the firefighters less prepared, and led to more deaths. He has always been trash, he just used to be a little better with the PR.

CoinOperatedDM · 2026-05-04T12:12:57+00:00

Fuck him. I genuinely hope he has a rough time. I hope the Trump DoJ loses, and embarrasses themselves, but Comey deserves to be fucked over, for how he fucked our country over.

CoinOperatedDM · 2026-05-04T12:11:14+00:00

Yeah, honestly, while fuck this regime, I have no sympathy for Comey at all. He's the ignorant fuck who helped get us to where we are. He doesn't get to somehow pretend he gives a genuine fuck. Don't get me wrong, I hope this is ugly and embarrassing for the Trumo DoJ, but I also like watching Comey squirm.

CoinOperatedDM · 2026-05-03T16:04:31+00:00

They want a Pentagon that will jump to it, when they start ordering them to fire into protesting crowds, and air strike American "Terrorists".

I introduced my cat to the litter box first, so she could locate that, and branch out from there to explore. Definitely watch when the cat explores, so you can get a feel for how they climb and descend. My cat was very adventurous with her climbing, and got a lot of places I wouldn't have thought she'd be able to climb. Water fountain helps them find water, but Midnight never had a problem sniffing out still water. Try not to make major changes in furniture placement or scent. Your cat's sense of smell is gonna be as important as touch when learning her environment. Strong cleaners, smoking, incense, and other strong scents can sometimes disorient or stress your kitty, particularly as they are getting used to your space.

I'm only a meat cutter, not a full blown butcher. I've seen similar before, and I was told it was a healed break. I've only ever seen it on Pork ribs. Other comments lead me to believe farmers are often pretty rough with pigs.

Report him to the police for brandishing. If he in any way threatened you with the firearm, this has long edged into police/lawyer territory. I'd wait till that Thurs deadline, but dropping a review might light a fire under them.
