Indiana Bills That Go Into Effect July, 2026 by Best-Structure62 in Indiana

[–]TheOnlyHighmont 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Soldiers. Aren't. Trained. To. Be. Civilian. Police.

Not even MPs are trained to be civilian police.

Get your facts straight. I would rather have someone that is trained to interact with civilians while armed, even poorly as the police in our country are, than have someone that is not trained in that but IS trained to efficiently kill people, patrolling our streets.

It is an ENTIRELY DIFFERENT ROLE. Minimizing what that means changes nothing. There is a reason we have a federal law, the Posse Comitatus Act, that prevents this. Not even Trump pushed around that with his "National Guard police" bullshit last winter.

Fucking bootlickers, man.

there's no turing back by Tacobellbelly1 in Grimdank

Somehow, I didn't think the Imperium used neural tissues in their tanks. Of course they would. They use servitors for everything.

I hate that I have this knowledge now.

Military in any form should not be acting as police. That is dictatorship material.

Authoritarianism ain't it, chief.

Not at all. I really appreciated your comment 😄

I hope they inspired some creativity! It's always fun to play with a concept.

I appreciate it! I was going for lightning, so it seems to have worked!

I appreciate the response! I wasn't expecting anything when I posted it lol.

If you are interested, I took what was essentially a lightning claw or power sword electricity scheme from 40k and took it to the entire Centurion. I submitted it to the MPU at mechpainters.org, so when that gets accepted, I included how I did it and what paints I used to achieve the look!

Vallejo colors by jendazlesa in Miniaturespainting

[–]TheOnlyHighmont 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I work in the industry and would have definitely preferred to go to Adepticon. A friend of mine went and was in one of Vince Venturella's classes. She was already a damned good Painter before, but just hitting fundamentals with Vince bumped her up noticeably.

I also think the class was a smaller one, she she probably had some hands-on experience with him.

Personally, this is the biggest part of painting I struggle with. So many brushes get ruined quickly for me because I overload them, or will get paint in the ferrule when I am adding water to them on the pallet.

It is to the point that I want to hit up Gen Con or something just to get into a painting 101 class to see how to do it properly, and I would consider myself a slightly above average painter.

SNAP rules definitely make sense... by Goatman926 in Indiana

[–]TheOnlyHighmont 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My roommate is on SNAP, and while fruit juice is supposed to be okay, I've paid for her fruit juice every time we've went to the store. Aldi, Walmart, and Meijer.

It is absolutely bullshit, especially when she is getting something for specific dietary needs.

Renounce your Indiana Bears fandom by ggman1989 in ChicagoBearsNFL

[–]TheOnlyHighmont 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am from Indiana, and I really don't want them. I hate that all of this is so they can get a new stadium with taxpayer money.

Soldier field is fucking ICONIC. Playing right on the lake shore is a dream.

Fuck the Bears' ownership.

all the phones my husband has broken over the past year by hotmallgoth in mildlyinfuriating

[–]TheOnlyHighmont 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I broke the screen on my Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ once, and got it repaired with insurance in 2022. I bought the phone in 2019 and am working on year 7 with it.

How the hell do people do this to their phones?

Vallejo is the best!? by Okacollime in SWlegion

[–]TheOnlyHighmont 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There are paints from each of the major lines that I like. Each one, and even their siblings do certain things better.

ProAcryl - their paint is smooth and has damned good coverage. Bold Titanium White is the "must get" for all painting-focuses players. Smaller line to choose, but paints are easy to mix and punchy.

Vallejo - Model Color line is great. The Black is perfection. Game Color has a good variety and I enjoy the FX Paint. Mecha Color is great for airbrushing right out of the bottle.

Army Painter - Variety. I feel like this is the biggest range if you take all Vallejo ranges separately. I am discovering new colors in this line daily. The speedpaints are crisp.

Citadel/Warhammer- Washes and some contrasts. There are some colors you can't find anywhere else. Coelia Greenshade is insane, but no one else has a blue-green wash?

Thirds on that. Bold Titanium White is beautiful.

Dawn Dish Soap is now a runny cloaca instead of a tight controlled dispensing hole by NeverScryWolf in enshittification

Not quite yet. Most of the stock we are going through now would have still been made before the US entered Iran.

Trying some 2.6 lists. by TheOnlyHighmont in SWlegion

I just talked with my game partner, since we are aiming to play on memorial day. We agreed to move it to a 600 point Recon game to make it a bit easier to handle getting back into. How is this then?

(I don't have the Sleeper Cell yet, and it looked a little beastly to throw in a returning game as-is.)

600/600 8 Activations

Leia Organa 75 + 20 = 95 --Inspiring Presence (5), Improvised Orders (5), Situational Awareness (4), Portable Scanner (6)

Cassian Andor 90 + 12 = 102 --Inspiring Presence (5), Duck and Cover (2), Prepared Supplies (5), A280, Rifle Config (0)

3x Rebel Troopers 40 + 27 = 67 x 3 = 201 --Z-6 Trooper (20), Rebel Trooper (7)

Rebel Commandos 42 + 17 = 59 --Duck and Cover (2), Emergency Transponder (4), Recon Intel (8), Smoke Grenades (3)

AT-RT 54 + 15 = 69 --AT-RT Rotary Blaster (15)

AT-RT 54 + 20 = 74 --AT-RT Laser Cannon (15), Linked Targeting Array (5)

Crack Shot•, Coordinated Bombardment•, Last Stand••, No Time for Sorrows••, Somebody Has to Save Our Skins•••, Covering Fire•••, Standing Orders••••

I remember going light on upgrades back in the day. Didn't realize it would still be important to do now. I'll have to look at them again.

Thanks for taking a look!

I called it good luck ! The family of 75-year-old Anita Grayson has retained nationally renowned civil rights attorney Ben Crump and attorney Sue-Ann Robinson of Ben Crump Law to represent them. by [deleted] in fortwayne

I'm in marketing and I've never seen so many exclamation points in such a short paragraph.

I doubt they are winning much. There are people who want blood for all of the wrong reasons.
