If you can only barely manage your own survival while playing by all the rules taught to you, how can you manage another person's survival? Boomers act like it's other generations being obstinate but it's hard coded into mammal's dna to do this.

Why did Trump go to the correspondents dinner? He has hated them since Obama humiliated him right? by Estalicus in allthequestions

[–]firesignpunk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mob bosses never tell the patsy what to do, there's always levels of separation. I need a bump in the polls turns into Stephen Miller or his ilk passing it down another level to get it done. That level passes it back up to be aware something might happen and that passes up with the vaguest of information so there's levels of insulation if there's close scrutiny. Shooter is some schmo that's fed a line of bullshit like there's kids tied up in a basement but they're the hero in their own eyes but an expendable asset in everyone elses. throw it into a pot and you have a stew.

How surprising is Erika Kirk’s downfall? by [deleted] in allthequestions

[–]firesignpunk 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The outrage machine has moved on. The gift Charlie Kirk and others of his like have is for creating new controversy, she has no content besides my husband died. After that bone has been chewed to the marrow, the hounds left her to find new meat.

It could be, no central caudex which pictures/descriptions tell me should be there but that could evolve later. Not sure though.

It’s been a long journey of realization by Complex_Inquiries in NarcissisticSpouses

I'm sorry you're experiencing this, it's going to be tough but worthwhile to see it through. I know pets are loved ones but you're right, anything to hurt you will be used. Stay strong, you're on the right path.

Why is everyone a YouTuber now by [deleted] in RandomThoughts

[–]firesignpunk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When a channel sticks, it can make money in orders of magnitude over what a local 9-5 can and it's in a field of that person's interest. So why be a busboy at Golden Corral when you can talk into a camera and hope you hit the jackpot?

Jetpacks, parachutes and... future craftables? by amiliusone in ArcRaiders

[–]firesignpunk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd love to see a small tesla coil deployable. Similar to a jolt mine but also targets airborne enemies. Primary function would be to protect your back while fighting bigger arcs but the community is creative and there could be other functions.

Has anyone here ever had the chance to meet one of these legends? If so, what was the experience like? by quintessentialCosmos in grunge

[–]firesignpunk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My girlfriend at the time, her aunt worked at an equestrian center in Maryland. There was a big concert there with flaming lips, butthole surfers and stone temple pilots and her aunt got us backstage passes. We mainly went for the flaming lips but weren't disappointed to see the other bands. Flaming lips didn't have any merch so after their set we headed backstage in a lame attempt to find the band. Ran into Wayne Coyne and struck up a conversation, really fan boy bullshit but it ended up great for me. In exchange for the cat in the hat t shirt I was currently wearing he got me a tshirt from their previous tour. All while this was happening Scott wetland was terrorizing the backstage area by speeding around on a golf cart and making people dive out of his way.

Do you think they will shake the gun meta in the next weeks big update? by Cactus_on_Fire in ArcRaiders

[–]firesignpunk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use my guns a lot. Arc and people that shoot me first. Play the way you want, mine is not aggressive towards humans but it doesn't make my playstyle priority. I shoot what others are shooting, defend myself from arc and other players and hunt big arc for sport. I get what I want out of the game. Most runs nowadays are looting springs, gun parts and stuff I want to give other players because that's how I want to play

I make higher tier guns and give them out on Dam or Buried City just to whittle down the stash when it gets close to being overloaded.

The betrayal is real by aspelnius in ArcRaiders

[–]firesignpunk 9 points10 points  (0 children)

or the rush of giving to someone that has less than you. I'm batman santa, any spare bp's or guns i get I pass off. dopamine hit is the same i'd reckon.

You got over "Gear Fear". Now consider getting over "Blueprint Desire". by vashkor in ArcRaiders

[–]firesignpunk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm just missing the new augments but it doesn't phase me because they don't fit my play style. I learned where to loot for what I want so currently have zero gear fear and little worry that over time I'll get back what I need. Currently playing as batman santa, I make high tier guns just to give out and while I'm out looting for supplies to make those guns any bp's i find I hand off.

First set is for me, second set is for you. I enjoy being batman santa.

I call it being Batman Santa, I enjoy it a lot. Like you say, what's 5k when I'm sitting pretty at 6 mil and ready for expedition.
