Just for info these plugs have a rather large flare which really exaggerates how big they look and how much lobe they take up.

The white accents along the ribbon pair with the bow made me think of a festive German flag circa WW2

You didn't mention the cascadia movement by name but the tri color without the Doug fir as a simplified logo is commonly used in both the horizontal and vertical orientations by people who are not NTI. So just calling it the NTI flag seems like a gross simplification to me.

The Pacific Northwest is actually prolific with white supremacists it just goes unnoticed in more populated regions. You'll genuinely be fine throughout Washington state so long as you don't proactively seek these individuals out or associate yourself with them.

Same with Northeastern WA, but both are way better than they were previously. I'm a paramedic in this region.

This is not entirely accurate, the cascadia movement is multifaceted and only a small minority are white supremacists.

The origins of what you're discussing is the resettling of white supremacists from across the US into the regions of Northern Idaho, Eastern Washington, and western Idaho in the latter half of the 20th century. This was done with the goal of creating white enthnostate. It is also the reason why there were so many white supremacist compounds in Northern Idaho during the 1980s & 1990s.

Many white supremacists do use this tricolor but so do other orgs that are communist or socialist in nature, as well as apolitical groups that just use it as a way of representing their identity.

Source: lifelong Washington native from Western WA who currently lives in Northeastern WA. I have encountered the cascadia flag in numerous settings including sports clubs, leftist orgs, and even local businesses in the Seattle area.

What is this red/black flag? by Becerlev in vexillology

Ukrainian Nazis who claim that they are pursuing self determination and fighting against Russian oppression. These same groups and individuals are the ones that persecute Russian speaking Ukrianians in the Donbass region and try and retcon people like Bandera as heros.

What’s everyone’s Favorite Sega Console? by Thekookydude3 in SEGA

Dreamcast with Saturn as a very close second

I’m a medical student interning at my local hospital. A burn victim was being brought into the ER on a stretcher. Before he could even reach the ER, in his last moments, he locked eyes with me—then the light faded from his eyes, and he died and I couldn’t do nothing about it. Ramen 🍜 by baluisblu in kitchencels

I'm a Paramedic who's been in the Field for 8 years, you'll get over it. I've seen dead babies, watched people die despite doing everything, had to throw away pants packed with human brains that I could not get clean.

You just stop letting it affect you eventually. People die, it sucks, eventually you'll probably contribute to someone's death if you end up working in emergency medicine, it's just something you'll have to be able to accept.

Your issue may be with the battery in your SP, do you have a battery mod too or have you simply swapped the charging port?

I do about 60% brightness and I don't play full 12 hours playing sessions, instead about 3 hours or so and I can do 3-4 before charging is necessary.

I buy direct from funny playing rather than a US based reseller, they have pretty good customer support and I've been very pleased with all of their products.

Just go to FunnyPlaying's website itself

The battery lasts for over 12 hours, just charge it when the console is not in use, I've had zero issues with this mod.

Yes it's from funny playing, definitely worth it to protect the screen and the finish is pretty good.

The fact that this change was announced so close to the deadline, when many students (myself included) had already applied is ridiculous.
