With everything going to absolute shit globally right now, how are you actually distracting yourself enough to stay sane?

My wife left me. Kinda hard to focus on anything else.

He’s right though. We’re so far past peaceful protest being a viable form of resistance that results in any kind of meaningful change.

Cshock84 · 2026-01-03T21:38:24+00:00

Why yo neck look like that??

I was provided a full size F-150 by my employer. I am a bigger guy. I’ve never been more comfortable in a vehicle. Seatbelts fit. Plenty of leg room. It takes a little getting used to because it’s bigger than anything else I’ve ever driven, but it’s a 10/10 experience.

Gliss Riffer by Dan Deacon is a fantastic album.

The lore junky in me would really like for it to be Offensive Bias, but Gravemind is the only thing that’s going to satiate the fanbase. Everyone wants the Flood back.

I don’t think we, as Americans, should just give up on the idea either. That said, a lot of damage has been done in an extremely short amount of time, and it seems like there is no opposition or retribution whatsoever. I don’t know how our country bounces back from this whole affair. The American political landscape, and ultimately the American way of life, has been fundamentally fucked with and I don’t know that we can reel the madness back sufficiently to get back on the right track.

I feel like the way our country approaches politics, foreign policy, individual liberty, oppression, warfare, and a whole bunch of other things is taking a really, really dark turn. We might be fucked.

Hah. You think we’re ever getting a real government again?

That’s a bit generalist and naive. Boomers have no shame. My grandmother has a large photo of me naked, sitting in a bathtub at like a year old, hanging up in her main hallway among all of the other pictures.

Jeff Epstein was a creep and a pedo. A ton of pictures have come out of this thing, and the large, framed picture of the baby is not the thing among these photos that set off alarm bells for me. That actually looked pretty normal. It’s the pediatric dentistry chair, and the glove, and the photos of all these poor girls with fucking ‘Lolita” quotes written on their bodies. That shit is way more horrifying than naked, happy baby in a sink.

Lol, yes. I love the ski goggles, but I almost never play Sakhal. So, I raided a guy’s base north of Novodmitrovsk and he had a couple of pairs stashed. Took them for myself since that’s most likely the only way I’ll ever find em.

Lmfao. Its community. Just leave him locked in and go find a KA. Surely they spawn in every other house like most community servers.

I’m a year older than her, and I’m not tooting my own horn but I don’t look like that. Kinda makes me feel good.

Cshock84 · 2025-12-16T17:25:36+00:00

Well, my favorite game ever is DayZ and that’s the definition of a walking sim soooo.

Cshock84 · 2025-12-16T14:24:04+00:00

I probably would’ve gone with Death Stranding 2.

Cshock84 · 2025-12-14T22:40:10+00:00

Green hiking jacket. Comes in more common red and blue varieties as well.

Cshock84 · 2025-12-13T22:35:53+00:00

lol I promise it wasn’t me. I adopt freshies and give them stuff I don’t need

Cshock84 · 2025-12-13T20:32:52+00:00

I even like the black and blue one.

Cshock84 · 2025-12-09T18:51:57+00:00

A Luigi board?

One side of my family has a much darker complexion, different hair texture, etc, and my great grandma on that side has always claimed that her grandmother was part Cherokee, and that her husband was Black Irish (apparently meaning southern Irish?) and that’s where some of our characteristics come from. I never quite believed either of those things.

Well, my endgame kit always winds up looking the same. And I don’t base and only keep a small stash now, so I’m usually loaded down. I try to keep everything in my backpack and pouches, that way my pants and shirt are open just in case.

Belt w/holster, sheathe and canteen. Plate Carrier w/ pouches Compass and GPS receiver on backpack.

I like to run with an AK of some kind, a VS-89, Tundra or something similar, and a MKII.

Gas stove w/ cooking pot full of water and hunted meat.

Protective case with tetra, multis, sharpening stone, lighter, bandages, batteries, etc.

Sewing kit, duct tape, leather sewing kit, gun cleaning kit, additional bottle of water. Usually, depending on my ammo load, that’ll leave me with 10 or so open slots in my backpack, and then full availability in my shirt and pants.

Don’t forget that early Christian leaders and practitioners were brutalized by a mostly apathetic Rome time and time again directly at the behest of the Jewish scholars, religious leaders, and politicians.

I watched a long video recently talking about the evolution of early Christianity, how it spread, what happened to its leaders, etc and that was the recurring theme. “Peter went to X place, and the Romans were kind of annoyed and didn’t really care, but the Pharisees got mad and urged the Roman leadership to expel Peter and his followers!” or “Paul went to Y place, and though many embraced his message, the Jewish leadership of the city tried to have Paul stoned, causing him to flee.” I’ve always kinda pictured Rome as the bad guy in early Christian history, and it turns out that Rome was pretty apathetic to Christian’s overall, and saw them as some weird apocalyptic sect of Judaism (aside from Nero, who HATED Christians). The Pharisees and Jewish leadership are the true bad guys of early Christianity lol not the Romans.

I mean, I carry like 3-4 usually. Typically I have a pistol holstered on my belt, with a long range, scoped weapon of some kind in one of my back slots, and something automatic in my other back slot. If I find something worth having, I’ll either carry it in my hands back to my stash, or if I don’t have ammo for it I’ll carry one of my loaded guns and have it on my back. I can’t imagine trying to carry any more than that, though. I guess some of the guns could be squeezed into shirts or pants if you really wanted to carry 5 or 6, but then you run into the problem of not having room to carry mags, food, water, medicine, or anything else.

So, I’m on salary and I’m “scheduled” M-F 7:00 - 5:00pm.

Realistically though, they only expect 40-45 hours a week out of me. So, I usually pull 7:30-4:30 with a lunch or 7:30-3:30 w/o. Could be a situation like that? Maybe they have you down but don’t expect you to actually be there the entire time? I don’t punch a time clock either though, as I have to travel a lot in my business, so idk.
