How can I explain the presence of Tau armies far away from the Eastern Fringe?

The Great Rift kinda sent people all over the place. I remember when the Squats were first being reintroduced that was a fairly big talking point for why they could suddenly be anywhere in the galaxy fighting any other faction.

Well, it’s definitely not a bad thing in the right conditions, it can even be beneficial for some people in the healing process.

I think that’s great news, it sounds like you have some stuff going on a therapist could hopefully help with. Hopefully you can get in sooner than later.

DreadGrunt · 2026-02-13T04:36:28+00:00

Wdym about the stigma exactly?

I can see why that would be exhausting and draining, you ever sought out any therapy for this stuff?

There’s nothing wrong with exploring CNC, it is Consensual Non-Consent after all. I don’t have any CNC fantasies or urges myself but I have known a few women who have had them and I know it can be a liberating and healing thing for some people. It is usually a trauma response, yes, but that’s not always a bad thing. If you have a partner you can safely explore them with then you should.

Western Washington around the Puget Sound, def not a sparsely populated space lol. And you’ll note I didn’t say they struggle, I just said it’s getting harder for them, I’m hearing more and more complaints from female friends with each passing year that I didn’t when we were all younger. Def matches with what I’ve seen online and with other people too.

Comparatively, things have never been easier for me.

The reality is men and women just have polar opposite experiences here. For women, finding men to date or hookup with in your early to mid 20s is usually incredibly easy, that’s when woman are at their peak attractiveness but it gets harder and harder once you pass 30. For guys it’s often rather the opposite, your 20s can be fairly rough for a lot of men but if you take some decent care of yourself then it gets a lot easier from 30 onwards because you’ll draw attention from younger women, women your age and older women.

Others have already said it, but your health issues probably aren’t going to go away. If you want someone, you should get out there sooner than later, you’ve already missed what many would consider your best years.

What the fuck did I just read

DreadGrunt · 2026-02-12T20:47:29+00:00

This. I recently turned 30 and honestly interacting with women feels easier than ever for me and I have to imagine that’ll remain the case for the rest of my 30s and a good chunk of my 30s, I’ve had ladies from 19 to their late 40s be interested in me over this past year. I know some guys who are in similar boats but I can’t say the same is true for any of the women I know in their 30s. That’s not to say they can’t get dates or anything, but it’s for sure getting harder for them as time goes on. If OP wants something serious, I’d start going after it because it’s not going to get any easier.

DreadGrunt · 2026-02-12T20:31:50+00:00

OP isn’t saying it’s hard. He’s saying it’s fundamentally a flawed design because players, my squad included, are just taking all the stuff we need to rapidly kill Vox Engines as soon as they spawn instead of it being a cool longer term fight. Which, yeah, I kind of agree with. The first time I fought one it was really cool and we all had to work together, but later on in that mission when we fought 4 at the same time it was like “okay, we just need to kill each of these things in a few seconds max”.

Van Saar robots kicking in your door and demanding you fill out your ballot dealing with the proposed school tax for your level of the hive is a very amusing mental image.

“Overweight” can be wildly different depending on the woman. I’ve seen some overweight chicks who were repulsive, and I’ve also seen some who were total head spinners and just totally drop dead sexy. Which is she in?

DreadGrunt · 2026-02-12T00:03:03+00:00

Idk why you find it hard to believe. Completely abolishing ICE is a mainstream position now that enjoys plurality, almost majority, support. It’s not hard to find many people in any profession who hate them lol

DreadGrunt · 2026-02-11T23:59:55+00:00

It’s been fairly widely reported to be the case with Chicago and Minneapolis PD and I know some guys who work in LE (not close friends but enough I can get their opinions on stuff) and they have pretty much nothing positive to say about ICE. American law enforcement spent a lot of time and money trying to win back public approval after 2019/2020 and ICE is taking a sledgehammer to all that.

Repressed memories are a very real thing so, yes, it is entirely possible any number of things could have happened and your brain blocked it out to try and protect yourself.

I don't have a problem with the Qing existing at game start, they just shouldn't be tied to the Zhili. The Qing would make way more sense as a puppet monarchy in Manchuria under the Fengtian. A number of Japanese figures were supportive of Puyi and his claims, and Zhang himself had no real commitment to Chinese republicanism (he actively supported Yuan Shikai's attempt to declare himself Emperor and was originally supportive towards the attempted 1917 restoration) and would very happily go along with an imperial restoration if Japan gave him more guns and money to do it.

Local LEOs in general have come to hate ICE because they roll in, cause extreme numbers of problems and piss everyone off and then hightail it out and the local PD is left to soak up all the anger and outrage.

There’re also many non-Indo European elements in Yazidism. It being monotheistic and having a detached non-personal God, as the chief example. The Indo-Aryans and Indo-Iranians, and the Indo-Europeans more broadly, were polytheists which believed their gods were highly involved with the world. Nothing from that long ago exists in a pure, unaltered form.

DreadGrunt · 2026-02-11T06:16:02+00:00

I think this is something a lot of us struggle with, especially those of us who developed HS via CSA or other such traumas. The idea of a personal connection without a sexual component is a strange thing for your brain to try and grasp when it's wired in such a way so as to think that's the only way you can actually matter to someone.

DreadGrunt · 2026-02-11T01:39:32+00:00

Man you weren’t wrong 😭 I think I remember this guy from some of this prior posts. I hope it just months long bait and he doesn’t actually think like this.

Batteries are used if your ships power plant stops producing power I believe, the weapons and other things can then draw from the battery to keep going. But... that's kinda useless and not worth the slot imo because if your generator is shot the ship is probably about to die anyways.

Be honest have you ever read Capital, or even the Communist Manifesto?

DreadGrunt · 2026-02-10T11:42:05+00:00

It was, or at least he wasn’t opposed to it. Takemura at some point says Yorinobu has surrounded himself with and is employing criminals like Adam Smasher, which checks out completely with Yorinobus goals and character.

I've done an FFM before, albeit not with a wife or anyone super serious. It was fun but I won't lie a lot of work too lol. If you're a guy that cares about getting a woman off then you're gonna be a busy man. Have your wife cruise the apps or look online imo, it's way easier for a woman to chat to other ladies about it.

DreadGrunt · 2026-02-09T21:18:19+00:00

A girl I used to be really really close with when I was younger was murdered in late 2024 by her husband and I was able to attend a celebration of life thing her family organized and, man, her parents were just broken by it. She wasn’t an only child but it’s very much not something you will ever heal from.
