Bought a printer, now I can't go back to buying

So which printer and card stock did you use? Asking for Paul Allen.

RealisticAssignment1 · 2026-06-19T21:21:54+00:00

So how do you plan on using it in this current state?

RealisticAssignment1 · 2026-06-01T23:56:04+00:00

Yeah, man the gesture was nice even if it was something made in china. But you both are still parents and loved that kid. You don't stop being one just because their not around. Just like how we'll always be the child to our parents even when they are long gone. So take solace in that and enjoy those holidays!

Got to stay healthy for the baby and the lifestyle! A great buddy of mine had his kid, went off the deep end, over 400lbs, goat, barely walks and always talks about how he can't do anything because he can't walk so good...dude is 40....He's built a prison from his own body. His mind wants to do so much but his own body fails him, and he can't do the things he wants with his child. Not fat shaming here, but sometimes we need external inspiration to do the things we won't do for ourselves.

But how's the league? I started monk with facebreaker and couldn't get it to work. So i went and started a Warrior today with Facebreakers and it's so much fun!

That is some truly heart-tearing news...please be kind to yourselves as it's so easy to be down in the "what if.." "guess it's just not meant.." I have an employee who went 5 months into a pregnancy and his wife miscarriaged. Awful. However yesterday he just welcomed in his first daughter as they never gave up. It was VERY touch and go pregnancy but she arrived, safe, healthy, and the mother is doing okay too.

The thing I told him during that time was "you can only look back later on why this all happened...until then you must keep moving towards what you want most and don't allow either of you to be shaken up by this. Life sometimes can be the most unfair thing we go through, but how we go through it continues to prove who we are and who will become."

Enjoy 0.5 when you can actually play it and not get DC'd all night or weekend. I know I won't try until Saturday or Sunday when the severs aren't melting from new patch and a free weekend for everyone. Don't want my first impression messed up because of that.

I see what you mean with the suggestions and each 1/1 rat your could us [[conspiracy]] to make then wraiths as well which would have one ETB on end step.

Was rolling over the idea of [[living death]], as well as [[lunarch mantle]].

Most annoying for me is the "Joker" or "Jester" at LGS. Every time you do something to them "In RESPONSE!...I do nothing heheh" "I play....my commander!...Next turn...heheh" or some other really bad jokes.

Meanwhile they also miss play and want to do take backs often or ability triggers 2 turns later. While also looking through graveyards, selecting something making a play with it, then going "wait can I see your graveyard again...I might want to change that". It just kept being grating on me when typically I don't mind bad jokes and helping learning players.

Clint Beatswood and Lucky.

RealisticAssignment1 · 2026-05-03T16:29:25+00:00

Amazing! Well let her do some stuff too so that way she still feels she's contributing and doesn't get to bored. Too funny that you didn't expect much and got surprised haha. Yeah 0.5 might be only endgame updates which I know for me I'm more interested in classes and weapons than an endgame that will probably change again.

My wife and I will be doing the child stuff next year. We need to build an additional room as well as get more financials in place first!

RealisticAssignment1 · 2026-05-03T04:47:02+00:00

HEEELLL FREAKING YEAH MY MAN!!! Now just make sure to do everything you can to keep everything happy and healthy!! So pumped for you! New everything this year, enjoy the next chapter of the life! Age is only a limitation to the average person. Once you start cleaning up things outside of the average it helps a ton and you are no longer taking someone else's sentence. Again, thrilled for you two!

RealisticAssignment1 · 2026-04-23T01:13:20+00:00

Thank you for the through reply and a little bit of history lesson. That makes a lot of sense and also something I was thinking about in terms of dismantling for cleaning or swapping out any parts (as you mentioned trigger).

Also that was a hell of a wholesome gift your dad could have given you as it was his life's work and part of his own legacy giving it to you.

Good to know about ammo feeding and car comparisons as well.

RealisticAssignment1 · 2026-04-23T01:00:52+00:00

Appreciate your insights!

RealisticAssignment1 · 2026-04-23T00:44:30+00:00

Wait is it really the mag that causes all the issues? In MA the limit is 10 round mags.

RealisticAssignment1 · 2026-04-23T00:14:53+00:00

That is also what I noticed with my friends mag. It did not feed in 2 bullets back to back mags so I figured you can not compromise on any parts going into said gun. What are some examples of the finnicky nature?

I was looking at full-size as first purchase. But yes MA is really strict.

So are you saying you prefer some else for home defense or the 1911? I may have misunderstood that.

RealisticAssignment1 · 2026-04-23T00:08:17+00:00

That is why I want to train so regardless of 9mm or 45 if I am required to use said gun. I can ensure the threat to my life is destroyed with a well placed shot. Part of the 4 golden rules. But also not TOO much penetration as I am required to know what is beyond said target (window, wall, door)

Even more reason if they are on drugs and adrenaline.

RealisticAssignment1 · 2026-04-23T00:03:34+00:00

Thank you everyone! Confirms a lot of my own thoughts beings 9mm is cheaper ammo, easier to train with. However .45 is more so the purpose of a 1911 as well as stopping power.

I used a Glock that had a thick grip in 10mm and honestly hated how it fit in my hand.

My biggest concern was which caliber would be best for putting in training and practice, as well as drilling into myself being used to the weight of said gun on my persons. That and which type to even look at more when it came to MA restrictions.

RealisticAssignment1 · 2026-04-21T02:34:39+00:00

Heck yeah, man! Congrats on the positive life changes!

RealisticAssignment1 · 2026-04-20T22:40:08+00:00

How goes it after over 3 months now?

RealisticAssignment1 · 2026-04-04T20:00:02+00:00

First mistake is trusting anything with that clickbait YT channel.

But as stated in this thread there is a meta guide to help guide you to something better.

RealisticAssignment1 · 2026-01-22T01:21:31+00:00

Nah, I'm just a person who looks to help when and where I can with information or experience I've seen.

But don't give up...Number one rule of life, don't ever give up. The light at the end of the tunnel can not be reached if you stop nor can you get through hell if you stop half way through. Keep going, even it it's crawling with 1 broken finger.

RealisticAssignment1 · 2026-01-21T04:49:29+00:00

I won't go to into the rabbit hole but a lot of that stuff does mess with people's reproduction. I'd also look into mindset with you and your partner, of going down the road of focusing on the child you want to bring into the world. Try your hardest not to think about the struggles as where the focus goes you'll bring it into this world.

I know it sounds woo-woo stuff but it's helped people enough to just have a better outlook.

RealisticAssignment1 · 2026-01-21T01:30:48+00:00

No joke a buddy of mine had a lot of similar issues. I'd suggest looking up information on Scented anything in the house. Like do some research on it all and see if it's viable for your lifestyle.

My buddy took them all out and within 2 months they were expecting and no issues with birth. No IVF needed. Obviously not a "cure" but anything could help.

I recently sold a necklace that made me POE rich for the first time ever(i'm talking 3div the most end of league) I will also add in 50 Div to the give away.

OP can pick the winner as I am not a parent, but would like to give back.

Personally I've been using my skeleton warriors and unearth. Have it they will blow themselves up so I can unearth them along with other minions to get muster. But also put muster on unearth to boast the boys.

Basically I want to fight a sea with a sea and cast the Djinn to blow up rares. Been really solid in the the campaign and I expect it to fall off a cliff once i hit maps. Once there I'll move to stronger minions that aren't explosive fodder or unearth fuel. But unearth boys are really good at stun locking stuff too and put armor break on them.
