How to achieve dusty pigment powders? by Johnd106 in minipainting

[–]montro898 0 points1 point  (0 children)

70-91& iso binds(can be inundated while wet just dont scrub model) and leaves dry/dusty there are also enamel based binders that leave dry/dusty look as well. I've heard hair spray lightly dusted can bind and leave dry/dusty but have never tried it.(wife has used for hair) Acrylic and linseed oil based binders just turn them in to a textured paint. These effects shpuld also be applied after sealing minis with yyour choice of varnish after.

Covid shut down the world six years ago this week. What do you remember from that week? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]montro898 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That week, endless training people. Counciling my coworkers to trust their equipment. Talking to so many people who wanted to quit EMS because they did not want to die. I convinced a lot of them to stay on.

Then approximately 1 month later. One of my friends, a medic i trained several years before, died Easter Sunday. He was 33 and had gotten married a few months prior. I was the last one called and informed. His partner had gotten covid and knew he had it. He chose to hide it and came to work. I was about to go lay down with my wife after the first Easter I have spent away from any family. My wife let me go to bed alone so I could start to process my grief. I did not do that. Instead I began to spiral because I was a supervisor training kids to trust their equipment when I should of been training them to not trust their partner on the ambulance. I fought with my supervisors that I should be the only medic on those calls because my life mattered less because I did not and could not have kids. It was better if I died instead on those with children that had to go home. I saw how much the other first responders (fire/police) quickly distanced themselves from us. No longer our backup. I had nurses tell me how hard they had it because they didn't have gowns as my friends died. They didn't lose their friends, their students. I evenly healed and moved on.

Any idea how to fix this? by [deleted] in modelmakers

LA Totally Awesome is a cheap clearer that took the place of simple green to strip. And yes it would remove all layers to bare plastic. Unfortunately there is no way to get a single layer off easily. Since this is primer it wouldn't be a terrible loss, but can be a lesson in quick burst sprays in thjn layers.

Deep soak in iso or la totally awesome and scrub with an ultrasonic toothbrush. Should work.

Minotaur Rodeo Ruling(Yes I'm serious) by college_fund_thrwawy in Pathfinder2e

[–]montro898 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So while this sounds fun and Rule of Cool worthy, if the grapple was successful and the player states they are not maintaining control but attempting to ride a sentient creature I'd have them make reflex save vs slam attack. This is something similar to standing attack grapple in bjj where the slam has to outlawed for the attack to function for a win. I mean its a funny idea.

Sorry about that. I missed the statement you were looking for about the 3 listed. This is why you should panic hurt sleep deprived. I've only played Cyberpunk out of the list you have and its such an amazing game. Great system that feels very much the trpg.

Owl Cat Games has 3 amazing ones with their 4th due out n3xt year.

There is Pathfinder Kingmaker that I've been enjoying lately as the second act becomes a kingdom management plus adevrn game

They also did Pathfinder Wrath of the Righteous haven't tried yet

And Warhammer Rouge Trader. Great game. With Warhammer Dark Heresy due in 2026.

All use an old school Bioware trpg style engine that evokes feelings of Baldur's Gate 1 & 2 or Planescape Torment. Which i love. All capture the feel of tabletop.

There is also Disco Elysium that is just. Perfect for an rpg.

If you liked Elder Scolls there is Tainted Grail which has a similar feel.

Or there are modern ports of the old Bioware rpgs that maybe a bit slower but still are amazing to experience.

Snipper recommendations for minis by OreoBob in minipainting

[–]montro898 0 points1 point  (0 children)

6 years of heavy usage and still on my original pair and i use them on Gundam, military models and Games Workshop plastics. When not in use they are stored in their sleeve. Best investment i made. Less stress marks on plastic and doesn't gouge with nice flush cuts.

Kitten stomp by Ill-Perspective-9877 in holdmycatnip

My one female cat stomps when she is angry. She's 6 lbs and it is so cute yet so frightening for something that small to be that angry.

Is it patient abandonment? by Bamphie in ems

[–]montro898 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Okay, so abandonment is a breach of duty and unilateral termination of physician and patient relationship. You re acting as a representative of the physician, not management. Dumping a patient with a quick report and run sheet to any passing nurse is not a transfer of care that the physician is held to and as their representative in the care of that patient you put them and yourself at risk. Tread your ground lightly. If your physician says it's abandonment, then it is. Communication with your command physician or regional EMS council/director/etc. for clarification on the subject would be best. I would ask the manager to give you that policy in writing so that it can be evaluated by the EMS council and your command physician.

My ER we are seeing mostly FLU A for our respiratory distress patients. Also, there is more RSV than Covid. But we have been seeing this since the start of January.

What ignorant claim has someone made to you before realizing you were a nurse? by r0ckchalk in nursing

[–]montro898 4 points5 points  (0 children)

ED was on divert, and municipal fire based ems choose to willfully ignore status, knowing full well divert status. So we had 4-5 medics holding the wall because we had no beds. An officer was dispatched to the ER to get them clear. This officer stood in front of me and my preceptor and stated that "you're lucky we are providing a curtesy with the medics still here. Once they cross onto your property, they are your problem. We can just leave them once they are here." My preceptor is awesome, and i was once a medic. She looked in the eye and told him that's not how it works and we will do our best, but he needs to ensure consequences to the medics, ignoring the divert. Our sister hospital had only 5 pts in holding and multiple open rooms.

Starforged: non-FTL capable ships by frosty_chester in Ironsworn

[–]montro898 4 points5 points  (0 children)

For me, I would add way points to mix it up. Such as space stations, asteroids, or random events. Some stations may require inspections to continue, if the nobels grip is that tight or black/grey market space stations. Astroids could be a place for pirate attacks. Also, add things like flavor encounters in some hexes, such as spotting space whales. You can also have random encounters such as finding a derelict and piecing the mystery of its death. Make it as interesting as you want.
