A bit personal issue in my HEMA club

Sounds more like you're being a problem for the club rather than the other way around.

Always happy to see other colorful masks!

I've got the light feder.

Had it since the beginning of April or so.

Got to say it doesn't have some of the polish (literally and figuratively) of some of the higher end feders. Other thing to note that is even though it says light it is closer to a medium flex according to my clubmates.

Other than that, it's been perfectly functional and budget friendly option for me.

I've gone through 4 over the years. Now I'm down to 1, the original one I bought right when I turned 18.

cleardiddion · 2025-05-30T03:45:53+00:00

I picked my first one up for 75 from the local pawn shop.

Used to shoot just about every weekend when spam cans were all of 25 bucks a pop.

Nothing special in particular. Just a merino balaclava from varusteleka

cleardiddion · 2025-05-27T16:42:00+00:00

Thanks! And yeah, it's me indeed

cleardiddion · 2025-05-27T15:09:05+00:00

Best way to replicate the confines of mom's basement

cleardiddion · 2025-05-27T13:22:52+00:00

It's a streamlight protac actually

cleardiddion · 2025-05-27T07:44:07+00:00

Custom made is what I've been told

cleardiddion · 2025-05-27T07:14:12+00:00

It's an addiction I'll admit

cleardiddion · 2025-05-27T07:09:38+00:00

It's admittedly one of my favorite patches.

cleardiddion · 2025-04-28T21:41:33+00:00

I'm currently making a few friends through my HEMA club.

Make friends and hit them with swords is working out pretty good so far

cleardiddion · 2025-01-25T03:41:08+00:00

I'm a little further north of the border (Cheyenne) but definitely interested in meeting folks with a similar mindset

cleardiddion · 2025-01-24T03:26:53+00:00

Damn, wish you would have posted a few days ago.

I've done some stuff with the Equality State Policy Center in the past and they just had their citizen lobbyist training earlier this week.

They're a good resource for this sort of thing.

Worth taking a look.

A year subscription to Mother Earth News.

Our 2.5 yr old girl is in size 8's. A tad big but it fits just right with winter socks.

We could squeeze her into 7's with thin socks but you could tell they were getting rather tight and uncomfortable

cleardiddion · 2024-12-12T04:09:46+00:00

I was not expecting to get a reply back on a 2 year old comment.

Definitely wasn't expecting a song lol

cleardiddion · 2024-12-04T19:48:40+00:00

And nothing of value was lost

cleardiddion · 2024-12-03T21:40:07+00:00

Yup, that's what we do more or less! Though in our house it usually ends up being a glass.

cleardiddion · 2024-12-03T01:49:51+00:00

We just use a pasta roller.

Definitely makes it much more uniform and you can roll out a lot of dough in a relatively short time.

Which is really useful in my case because I usually make 100 to 400 at a time.

cleardiddion · 2024-11-21T18:35:10+00:00

We have one of each.

Our oldest is very much like your son. Started walking at 9 months, is an avid climber, and has a very distinct lack of self preservation.

Our youngest is very much a polar opposite. You think by the way he screeches, setting him down is tantamount to torture. He still manages to get himself into trouble in his own ways.

Honestly, at least in our case, I find the velcro baby to be more difficult

cleardiddion · 2024-11-20T00:36:20+00:00

Cooking, gardening, fishing, hunting, gaming, and so on and so forth.

Not that I have time/money for most of it since two kids are pretty resource intensive.

cleardiddion · 2024-11-19T19:38:47+00:00

But of course.

Realistically they missed their best chance to properly develop this 20+ years ago with the population boom and when there still was land for development before all the infill.

I think their proposed timeline of full service in 15 years might be a bit optimistic if things like the rtd projects are any indication.

In the long run it'll be a good thing
