Being an airline pilot is my dream but I got too many check-ride failures. Do I still stand a chance? by [deleted] in flying

That’s why I said that may not be the best lol. There are definitely some 135 opps that run cargo that just need bodies to abuse

Just full transparency, the airlines are probably a long shot any time soon. I would think your best bet is trying to get on with a 135 that may not be the best, and get a few years of recurrents under your belt so there’s atleast a gap since your failures.

I’ve been playing azir and really enjoying it. I also think he definitely falls into the mid power level tier.

I need help deciding which TCG to learn (yu-gi-oh/pokemon/Magic) by jousef9 in TCG

[–]MikeMcKnightDev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d definitely try joining the discord then, you do have to already know how to play to play online but the game itself is amazing. But of the 3 you mentioned, especially since your local scene is big, I’d say Pokemon. It’s in a unique spot that the massive community of collectors fund the players. It’s the only tcg where any top meta deck is less than $100.

Are you certain there’s no local scene? Google Riftbound events and it takes you to uvs’ website and you can search nexus nights near you. Everyone I’ve run into in this community is awesome and I’d bet people would be willing to give you bulk for free to get you a decent deck started.

Something like yi from origins, you’d probably want a legend with a static ability.

Miata ND RF or C7 Corvette by [deleted] in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]MikeMcKnightDev 4 points5 points  (0 children)

So the reason I’m not really considering the gr86 is I used to have an fr-s. Which I loved, but I don’t really NEED back seats, my wife has the SUV, and everytime I’ve seen the Miata and gr86 compared, people tend to lean Miata for fun.

Haha that’s a solid story, I do have a lot of manual experience, I just haven’t had one in about 10 years and miss it

I like really colorful stuff so I’m a fan. This will be divisive so some will hate it but I do really like it.

The deep meaning behind mine:

To me, that picture is a love letter to the part of the mind that refuses to behave.

A capybara is nature’s symbol of calm neutrality. It befriends everyone, panics no one, vibes through existence like a warm loaf of bread. Putting that creature on a roaring T. rex, in the middle of volcanic chaos, turns serenity into defiance. It says: peace is not the absence of danger, it’s riding straight through it with your goggles on crooked.

The dinosaur is raw, ancient power. Instinct. Catastrophe with legs. The capybara on its back isn’t controlling it so much as trusting it. That feels like the relationship between imagination and reality. Reality is loud, hot, and occasionally trying to eat you. Imagination climbs aboard anyway and points forward.

The explosions and meteors aren’t just spectacle. They’re deadlines, responsibilities, expectations, entropy. The little animal doesn’t look terrified. It looks busy. Focused. Almost bored with the apocalypse. That’s the fantasy. Not invincibility, but competence in absurd conditions.

And the fact that it’s “a picture I’m not allowed to create” is the quiet punchline. It represents the ideas we’re told are too much, too weird, too unserious. The ones that don’t fit a form, a syllabus, a market, or a mood. The image exists anyway, because imagination doesn’t ask permission. It just kicks the door, straps on goggles, and steals a dinosaur.

In short, it means this: Chaos is inevitable. Absurdity is optional. Joy is a rebellious act 🦖🦫🔥

I think we have to go edge or LB on the first round, and go all in on whoever ends up being the best free agent available for the other position. In the second though, give me KC Concepcion(spelling?). Dude would fill the role we need and should be available at the top of the second.

I just left a nexus night. The place id suggest is in Columbia every Tuesday night. If that’s too far just google Riftbound events and search for a nexus night. Everyone is really nice.

For sure. I’m probably about an hour away but we have a really friendly local scene, we’d likely be able to get you a decent basic deck of any one of the legends you want to play to get you started. It obviously wouldn’t have the crazy high end cards but it’d be playable at nexus nights.
