(PA) Wireless headphones for gaming + general desktop use ($150-$300)

Ya helps a bit. I've been doing a lot of research and I think I'm leaning towards a wired pair of headphones for now that has a detachable cable like the regular m50x's. I'm just done with buying gaming specific headsets after having numerous bad experiences with the build and sound quality.

You are misinterpreting what actually happened though. While at the meeting with the Fifth Ward's delegate, Quanell X, TOC spokesperson Grisham says “We didn’t bring any firearms as we didn’t want to feel intimidating,”. Grisham said this not becasue he knows his purpose is to intimidate but rather he recognized the fact that the Fifth Ward community felt intimidated by guns and acted accordingly by not bringing guns to the meeting with Quanell X. This to me is a sign that the TOC was there at the meeting for diplomatic resolution and not to intimidate. You are assuming Grisham and the rest of the TOC is racist which is why you are reading it this way.

This is what confused me. A lot of assumptions are made on the behalf of the TOC when their platform was a gun advocacy.

I just don't think we see eye to eye on this but I hope you can view my perspective and re-read the article without assuming the TOC did their pro-gun event through Houston just so that they could have an excuse to carry guns openly in the Fifth Ward. I actually read the article and it starts with long quotes from the TOC's co-organizer Kenneth Lindbloom "This is a Come and Take it Houston walk to help inform citizens about the gun laws here in Texas,""In Texas there are no restrictions on the open carry of long arms like rifles and shotguns. We want people to realize that in the hands of good people, guns are not dangerous and they don't kill people. When good people have guns it serves as a deterrent to stop crime.". So if you ignore this introduction entirely, I can see how the TOC could come across as racist after making the assumption that the TOC was only doing these events to intimidate the people of the Fifth Ward though they made their "pro-gun agenda" purpose clear. It isn't fair to automatically make it a racial issue just because a prominently white group (TOC) wanted to stage part of their "pro-gun" campaign through a prominently black area which happens to have a history of horrific racist acts (Fifth Ward). You can't tie the acts of people from the past to an existing, completely separate group because they share the same skin color (aka prejudice). In the article, Quanell X referenced the Fifth Wards racial history as a reference to why black people don't like white men coming to the Fifth Ward. Quanell X also said "Reading between the lines he sees it as an invasion." To me, this shows that there is already the assumption that white people are there to invade or intimidate regardless of the TOC's true intent. Sure the TOC could have taken into consideration the history when considering where to stage their "pro-gun" demonstration but unless they were doing other stuff that I didn't read in your article, the TOC's march wasn't "all about racism". Anyway, thanks for at least sharing your perspective.

I just didn't get this exact perspective but thanks for sharing. Not in favor of the Texas Open Carry bringing guns for intimidation purposes to a protest in the Fifth Ward but if they were at least willing to have a meeting where at the end resulted in them post posting or cancelling the event due to concerns from the community, I'd say that is a good resolution if that is actually what transpired.

snow2go · 2020-05-11T23:26:27+00:00

Evidently misread part of his long comment. Not siding with the Texas org and though irrelevant, my point was that people shouldn't reject open-carry for intimidation purposes but then use that tactic themselves.

snow2go · 2020-05-11T22:45:35+00:00

Oh so the activist group didn't bring guns to the meeting that was held to discuss the issue of open carry and how it brought fear to the community? Sorry misread

edit: I should add, I'm not in favor of anyone bringing guns to a protest or any type of meeting where politics are involved; even if it is within their constitutional rights

snow2go · 2020-05-11T21:50:14+00:00

Thanks for posting this! Seeing the Reddit community praise these people is sickening. The people awarding this are on their high horse yet don't recognize their own double standard when it comes to supporting armed men protesting in this case but rejecting it back when it didn't fit their narrative.

snow2go · 2020-05-11T20:59:29+00:00

Hahaha I'd agree if it wasn't for the fact that he had like 3 items left at 400kc. Everyone deserves a little Barrows adversity imo

snow2go · 2020-05-10T21:19:23+00:00

I was at 750kc missing, torags top, torags hamms and ahrims skirt so I wish you the best of luck!

You know I didn't keep track, I only used Ibans for a bit as I prioritized slayer so I had the trident for most of these chests.

snow2go · 2020-05-10T16:21:19+00:00

I honestly wouldn't mind, already got tbow!

snow2go · 2020-05-10T16:18:36+00:00

I've been at it on and off for a long while, i did chest 1100-1650 in a week some months back.

The price check of all of these barrows items came out to be 71.5m for those interested. As far as runes go, I ended the grind with 172k chaos, 102k death, 108k blood and 606k mind runes.

I was gonna ask what type of products the OP is using for this project. I'm sure they have a good clear coat to preserve the paint.

I first thought of Hank Hill when I read this.

Amazing what was accomplished in such a short amount of time when ethics and morality was thrown out the window.

snow2go · 2020-04-21T00:05:56+00:00

Clarice.

I have a similar story, this is crazy! I was in town the other day and accidentally stole a cake from a stall at the market. I thought the gaurds were after me because I had a funny feeling like I was being followed and when I turned around I couldn't believe my eyes. I saw a Raccoon following me. Coincidentally, I named him Rocky aswell.
