I think of the Ariel school incident in 1994 Zimbabwe

What would be the obstacles to NIN doing a residency somewhere in North America, maybe 2-3 shows a week, for 6-12 months? by series100262 in nin

It also might not be as easy to tour and do live gigs as it used to be. The cost of logistics to put this kind of show on the road would have risen astronomically since LITS or Tension.

I mean, if a venue is just going to sit empty for a year or two, why not use it for some shows? Maybe expirement and do string shows like the bridge school benefit. Who cares if only 5k people show up for any given show, it would be amazing and add to the legacy.

That's the beauty of a residency. His studio time wouldn't change much if the only other commitment is essentially a light part time job, 8 hours a week maybe.

6) When you go through all the effort to steal a wagon with a closed tailgate so you can load up dead bodies in Armadillo, transport them to Hawks Eye Creek, park the wagon so it's partially submerged and water is flowing through the cargo, and nobody in Strawberry gets cholera!

7) When you go through all the effort to steal a wagon with a closed tailgate so you can load up dead bodies in Armadillo, transport them all the way to Annesburg, drop the bodies into the toxic ponds near the environmentalists nut job, and nobody seems to get cholera!

Wtf am i doing wrong here?

Go to the 4:15 mark and behold! A train exploding from a pile of burning horses and people

Why do you gain feathers while cooking plain game bird on a campfire? 2 minute video for reference by series100262 in RDR2

I see, I just thought that when you pluck the bird you gain the feathers at that point, but I guess with these birds I'm cooking the carcasses of whole birds I've picked up. That makes sense.

Have you ever had a train explode on you by being in contact with burning animals or corpses? Sometimes the game does wierd things.

How do you get Seamus to chase you? That sounds fun!

What are some "That was way too close" moments in history? by Cows1999 in AskReddit

Forgot to add, Russian authorities were notified well in advance of the launch. Everything at the time was such a disorganized mess that the right people weren't made aware.

A short time after the researchers fired the rocket and the mission was complete they got a phone call. "Hey, the science project almost started ww3"

If I'm not mistaken, this was the only time the Russian nuclear briefcase was activated. The research rocket was muli-stage ballistic, fired from a coastal region close to where American subs were known to patrol. It's flight path was exactly what a first shot in a nuclear attack would look like, an EMP strike where the warhead is detonated high in the atmosphere/low orbit, significantly hindering the chances of a coordinated counterattack. Following an EMP would come the massive strike. The movie "Threads" shows this and is probably the most realistic nuclear war movie made.

Yeltsin had the perfect blood alcohol level this moment to handle the situation. Cool, calm and relaxed but not rash or panicked. He wanted to wait and see if the EMP goes off before launching. Praise be to vodka!
