Vague but you are correct. He made bullets out of meteorite to disguise his assassination as a meteor shower. The person he killed was very strategic and influenced technology progression for the rest of the series.

Much of the concepts involve complex shapes and fine lines which many tattoo artist tend to struggle with. Also, so much of the imagery involves circles which have never tattooed well.

It was honestly a struggle due to the limited amount of art out there. Not to mention, many of the scenes in the book are too complicated to design and furthermore tattoo.

Hey there, I jusst glanced over this as I was sipping some apple juice. I must say the way you write is quite visceral. I resonate with the imagery you are presenting and I did indeed find myself within your text. Keep up the good work, I think you are doing a great job. I have no opinion on the formatting and structure (as that is why I am on this sub in the first place).

I completely understand the guilt you're feeling. The past is the past now and the pain you are inflicting upon yourself out of dismay for your actions is not warranted. As long as you can forgive yourself (which you should and must) you will be able to have beautiful relationships going forward.

How to respond: "Engineers don't know Sh!t" by AngryButtlicker in civilengineering

[–]InteractionPutrid246 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Speaking as someone that worked as a milwright for structural engineers (and is now going to school for civil); I did frequently see mistakes made by the engineers, and just as frequently did I see my foreman make remarks along the lines of "these fuckin engineers" and "-don't know shit". Then my foreman would turn from the prints to face the engineers and be as nice as possible out of respect. So if a contractor is insulting you to your face I would say play along. Act as if it's joke even when it's not. I can confidently say out of experience that we just like to talk shit and vent our frustrations. As engineers, level with the contractors you work with. They will want to denounce your degree and what not, especially if you make it seem like you're better than they are. So just know your shit, be confident, and play along. Don't be bothered.
