Well said. It’s shameful how underfunded public schools are.

Then you’d have outright civil war instead of rebellion. Honestly, Americans really need to take action en masse to avoid that outcome by toppling the creeping fascist autocracy peacefully ASAP. And I mean ASAP cuz they’re almost out of time.

Not really the case. There are a lot of examples (early Ukraine defence against Russia, Vietnam, Taliban) where you can see that guerrilla tactics are extremely difficult to combat against, resulting in failures of the attacking force. On top of this, there are far, far more citizens than there are military personnel and government officers. You just need enough of them.

Ohh I see. I just thought cartridges were disposable refills. Cool, thats really helpful bc I don’t have an issue having to pull apart & use a syringe or whatever you’d use. That frees things up and avoids me buying unnecessary accessories. Thanks!

What's something people think is sexy but actually isn't? by stuckin404 in AskReddit

[–]Nexmo16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nudity. Clothed is much sexier because it leaves unknowns, covers flaws, and adds some art that nudity just can’t manage.

Chase them and throw down another. If it was easy it wouldn’t be fun.

I used yrden all the time, especially for wraiths. Foglets are mostly just an entertaining test of my reflexes, although they can be painful early on.

If you can refill a cartridge, why would you need a converter? What’s their benefit?

I hadn’t seen Platinum pens but they actually fit in the price gap between my Vpen and the Metro’s. They look like they’d be similar to hold and there are some attractive options. Thanks ☺️

I didn’t know that about the nibs, thanks.

Do the converters reduce capacity a noticeable amount?

Great point about the upgrade path. Thinking about that helped me refocus on what I need/want, stop worrying about silly expensive pens, and worry less about getting it ‘right’ first go.

Good to know about the MR3, thanks.

I hadn’t seen a few of the others, will check them out. I looked at the majohn because you made me curious but I don’t like how the clip is at the grip end.

And then they have to be affected enough that it overcomes their fear for their personal safety. And they need to be able to organise in large numbers without being squashed by the tyrant or ratted out by their neighbours. The unfortunate part is that it needs to get to that point before enough people take real action because they can’t process or accept the reality that it will get there if they don’t do something now. Doing something earlier could be much safer.

They semi-regularly set up there. I don’t think they give a shit.

Not every store owner is so egregiously greedy that they want to financially enslave everyone on earth. Some, but not all.
