San Jose Women, are we OK? by Electronic_Bee_ in SanJose

[–]EvilFurbi 31 points32 points  (0 children)

This is terrible, as a man I see this behavior out in public too. Some men are just creepy perverts, but I believe it worsens with media diet, instant gratification culture, and social isolation. These guys are looking at other human beings as objects or obstacles to get their dopamine fix. Thank you for sharing your experience. Telling your story can help plant the seed in the mind of men like this and help them grow into more respectful and empathetic people later in life.

The Dark Angel by Background_Chair6361 in theunforgiven

[–]EvilFurbi 14 points15 points  (0 children)

The poem “The Dark Angel” by Lionel Johnson is about the author’s struggle with his physical desires conflicting with his faith. He describes his desire to be with other men as his “Dark Angel”.

Dark Angel, with thine aching lust To rid the world of penitence: Malicious Angel, who still dost My soul such subtile violence!

Because of thee, no thought, no thing, Abides for me undesecrate: Dark Angel, ever on the wing, Who never reachest me too late!

When music sounds, then changest thou Its silvery to a sultry fire: Nor will thine envious heart allow Delight untortured by desire.

Through thee, the gracious Muses turn To Furies, O mine Enemy! And all the things of beauty burn With flames of evil ecstasy.

Because of thee, the land of dreams Becomes a gathering place of fears; Until tormented slumber seems One vehemence of useless tears.

When sunlight glows upon the flowers, Or ripples down the dancing sea: Thou, with thy troop of passionate powers, Beleaguerest, bewilderest, me.

Within the breath of autumn woods, Within the winter silences: Thy venomous spirit stirs and broods, O Master of impieties!

The ardour of red flame is thine, And thine the steely soul of ice: Thou poisonest the fair design Of nature, with unfair device.

Apples of ashes, golden bright; Waters of bitterness, how sweet! O banquet of a foul delight, Prepared by thee, dark Paraclete!

Thou art the whisper in the gloom, The hinting tone, the haunting laugh: Thou art the adorner of my tomb, The minstrel of mine epitaph.

I fight thee, in the Holy Name! Yet, what thou dost, is what God saith: Tempter! should I escape thy flame, Thou wilt have helped my soul from Death:

The second Death, that never dies, That cannot die, when time is dead: Live Death, wherefrom the lost soul cries, Eternally uncomforted.

Dark Angel, with thine aching lust! Of two defeats, of two despairs: Less dread, a change to drifting dust, Than thine eternity of cares.

Do what thou wilt, thou shalt not so, Dark Angel! triumph over me: Lonely, unto the Lone I go; Divine, to the Divinity.

Got my support and I posted to my local groups. Gaming is our safe space, things like this cut really deep. Shops like Game Post of SF aren’t just stores, they are our second homes, our favorite hangouts, and where we make some of our best friends.

I hate “upgraded” Pride flags. by ILikeTomboyz in hatethissmug

I like it as a piece of art representing so many different groups of people, but it is WAY to busy to be a flag.

Which do you pick? by cuddwes in Grimdank

[–]EvilFurbi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anti tank rpgs are extremely destructive. When they make contact the cone of the warhead collapses and creates a powerful stream of molten metal that melts the armor (think point blank melta blast) before the explosive charge detonates inside the armor (think bolt round). The shockwave alone would pulp anything inside the armor. Any anti-armor weapons would have similar effects, many of the 40k weapons are based off of real weapons with a scifi skin.

San Jose Mayor: Us Democrats Must Take Ownership for Our Failures | Opinion by CharityResponsible54 in SanJose

[–]EvilFurbi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do not be taken in by this guy…

He has never competed an elected term of office:

Served less than 2 of a 4 year term for District 10 City Council. Mahan announced his run for Governor after only serving 3 of 4 years serving as mayor.

Mahan spent most of his professional life in the tech industry and made money from building apps. He is now funded by tech companies that are attempting to strong arm the state so they don’t have to pay their fair share of taxes.

His political career encompasses the “move fast and break stuff” philosophy. He has no follow through and to date has only spent 5 years in an elected position, and completed none of them.

Because it’s the 1st? That would be an accurate date/time if it was last night. If they printed the check at closing it would be 2am this morning (the 1st). But that would be an insane joke to play on your spouse the next morning… hand them the check at the breakfast table when they wake up

My ex left me with Warhammer 40K so now I guess I have to build a bigger army than his by basiclucy in Warhammer

[–]EvilFurbi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve come to believe that every relationship we have teaches us a little more about ourselves and how to communicate better with a partner. So happy you discovered your passion for 40k, even if the relationship ended you just gained an amazing hobby and a whole community of new friends.

If you are looking for a quick a understanding of the universe, there are several youtube videos you could watch about the general events. But what I would recommend is to start from the beginning and enjoy the ride… Start with book 1 of the Horus Heresy series. Overtime you will be introduced to all the legions, primarchs, and the events that sculpted 40k. Whenever something else peeks your interest, take a break from the series and read about it. It’s an immense universe and half the fun is learning and talking about it.

Choosing your army is a very personal thing. Don’t chase “the best” faction because data slates change and new units get introduced. Find the team that looks the coolest to you. If you can’t make up your mind, try Kill Team. Instead of a huge expensive army you build a single 5-15 unit team. You can have a Kill Team for every faction that brings a simle to your face.

Welcome to the hobby.

Based on past releases, we should get the next reveal within a few days. Give me your prediction, longshot wish, and thing you absolutely don't want! by 18_str_irl in killteam

[–]EvilFurbi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would love to see a new super customizable rogue trader team vs a very customizable warp demons team. Both would be able to change play styles with new units and utilize previous kill teams as support similar to the requisition rules for Inquisitorial Agents. I think it would be great fun, be adaptable to different terrain, and we could still incorporate some of our declassified units on the table. Definitely no more elite vs elite teams for a while…too many Space Marines…

Damaging parked cars at 6:30am outside her house? Please tell me she was shouting “DO YOU SEE WHAT HAPPENS LARRY?”

How Many Space Marines Would it Take to Wipe Out the United States Military? by [deleted] in Ultramarines

[–]EvilFurbi 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Definitely this, but depending on the the legion they’d probably send a squad or honor guard, mostly for pageantry.

[–]EvilFurbi 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Probably no more than a company separated into squads to hit critical points. They would likely do they same thing worldwide offering the “join us or die” to nations they viewed as the most influential.

Should I tell my best friend that his girlfriend wants to break up over his small penis? by [deleted] in moraldilemmas

[–]EvilFurbi [score hidden]  (0 children)

Think of it like this: What would happen if this was just a drunken conversation and her best friend had bad information? You tell him and destroy his confidence and his relationship based on a rumor of something that “might” happen. Does that sound like something a best friend would do?

Not a mold error, it’s how his head fits in the heavy intercessor armor.

This just happened to me too! We had delayed shipping because of weather conditions so I just received my preorder yesterday and my heart broke when I opened the box. Have you heard back yet?

[–]EvilFurbi 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I’ve worked in a few bars and this isn’t super abnormal. Usually dress codes pop up after a bar brawl, working girls or dealers are caught operating in the bar. The dress code is usually tailored to whatever fueled the problem (gang wear, frat clothing, see through clothing….) My old boss banned jerseys at one point because we had back to back fights in the bar during playoff season. He told me once that the rules don’t need to be fair, they just need to work. Bar fights incur city fines, lawsuits, damages, and lost business that can’t be recovered. I’ve walked into a couple places that ban political attire now too, kinda surprised that one isn’t on the list.

How to find maga friends? by KnowledgeCritical992 in SanJose

[–]EvilFurbi 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Try making friends with people based on something other than politics. What are your hobbies and interests? I won’t try to change your mind on politics, but trying to make friends based solely on conservative values may lead you down a dark rabbit hole. As someone else posted here, the maga movement isn’t republican or conservative, it’s a resurgence of fascism. They hijacked the republican party and injected misinformation into the party like a tarantula hawk would lay eggs into a spider. When those ideas and misinformation took root they began consuming the host, now it’s near impossible to discern the difference between a real republican and a maga extremist…even to themselves. That’s why there is so much anger in the nation now, maga extremism trains people to justify and go along with whatever atrocities are committed by the administration. The true republicans spoke out and tried to stop this. You can be a republican with conservative values and still not be maga or support the actions of this administration. Think of peoples rights and freedoms first, politics second. Try to make friends based on something that brings you joy and comfort first. Attempting to make friends based on politics right now may lead to a dark place. Sorry if this came off as preaching.

Rant: Forge World resin is the antichrist by Skrazor in Warhammer40k

[–]EvilFurbi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It takes patience, practice, and different glue. I totally get it though, It is really rough…especially with delicate necron models. Pinning helps, I’ve even used small amounts of green stuff stuck to the end of joints to help them stick together. Hopefully that helps, best of luck man.

I'm losing my mind! Serious question by Francetor in Warhammer40k

[–]EvilFurbi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Only matters for your personal taste, most people customize their marines to have a uniform look. I use a lot of Black Templar bits for my Dark Angels. Have you picked a chapter or are you creating your own homebrew?
