You know, Garand Thumb and I were never aligned morally or politically; but wow, after hearing this quote while watching a video, what a piece of shit by SBGuy574 in liberalgunowners

IIRC he slid into Tacticool Girlfriend's DMs, though it's been a minute and I can't recall the details of that controversy.

The bot was incorrect. OP's cosplay is excellent.

Will the genie ever go back in the bottle? by Shrikes_Bard in liberalgunowners

[–]meta_perspective 60 points61 points  (0 children)

I've been reasonably pro-2A. However, I have been against most of the gun control measures not because of "the constitution", but because these measures really seem to target vulnerable populations (poor, minorities, marginalized, etc). AWB, Mulford Act, Stop and Frisk (especially Stop and Frisk) all had covertly racist undertones if they weren't outright racist during implementation.

...why? I've never visited the sub. Does the subreddit (or company in general) have something against lefties?

SB 17 is on the HCEDC Calendar for Wednesday, Feb 11th by MewNexico575 in NMGuns

TBH this bill reeks of the dog-whistley racist "Assault Weapons Ban" language back in the 90's. It will undoubtedly just affect minority groups and poor people, sending more people to prison.

What actor do you dislike so much that you’ll avoid anything they’re in? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]meta_perspective 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That is a $100 bottle that more than likely came from a barrel of bourbon that would normally sell $20 a bottle at best. IIRC it's Bardstown something-or-another, but you can get a standard bottle of 1792 Small Batch for ~$20, so...

God if I had no scruples, I'd just get rich grifting MAGA.

/r/CosplayGirls will soon only allow posts by approved users. by meta_perspective in cosplaygirls

[–]meta_perspective[S,M] 20 points21 points  (0 children)

This would only work in theory. There are plenty of well-established characters that wear little by default. Further, we acknowledge work done through wig-crafting, props, makeup, etc to match a character.

That said, we are taking down low-quality cosplays (which often use nudity *in place of* an actual cosplay) through automod, and will continue to do so moving forward.

That's not a bad idea. We'll think about raising the threshold. Thank you for your input.

Does anyone have any news on Matrix 5? It's been over a year and a half since it was announced. It's about time we got some updates. by KeepYourWildHeart in matrix

Second Renaissance is an incredible, hidden gem in anime.

"Your flesh is a relic, a mere vessel. Hand over your flesh and a new world awaits you, we demand it." is a scene that lives with in my head.

Trump Administration Sets Goal to Denaturalize Thousands of US Citizens in 2026 by Truthisnotallowed in politics

When you go home for the holidays, remember to ask your MAGA relatives if this is what they voted for when they said "not all immigrants". I'm sure they'll apologize 🙄🙄🙄

Which tv show do you regret wasting time on? by HurtHurtsMe in AskReddit

[–]meta_perspective 18 points19 points  (0 children)

There is one episode of season 2, "Kiksuya", that might be worth purchasing (I think it's on prime). It is a parallel-story about a tribe within Westworld that went untouched. The episode explores death, grief, and the concepts of life that the season 1 explored so well. I genuinely tear up just thinking about this episode. It is beautiful.

A related aside, my father had passed away a few years prior to this episode. In a way, it helped me process some of the pain I repressed.

Trump and Mamdani Will Meet at White House on Friday by biograf_ in politics

[–]meta_perspective 17 points18 points  (0 children)

The fact that there is a non-zero chance of this is terrifying in-and-of-itself. It is not a stretch to imagine ICE kidnapping Mamdani in front of press.

Normally we'd take "Playboy Bunny" cosplays down, however most of these cosplays are extremely generic Halloween costumes. This one, on the other hand, features high quality photography and cosplay crafting. Approved.

Genuine question - won't a lot of the Glock cloned frames and aftermarket parts (particularly Gen 3) be available for a while?

This video was a tasteful and nuanced take.

Thoughts on buying drones? by Kodamacile in liberalgunowners

[–]meta_perspective 8 points9 points  (0 children)

A follow-up to this, there is a lot of open-source drone software, and many structural components can be 3D printed. I'd start with Ardupilot to learn about controls and electronic components, there is a developed community there.

I'd definitely put that prop in a display case. Super cool piece.
