Call your mom. (If your relationship is good) it’s been a long time since I’ve been able to, you don’t forget once they’re gone and it’s too late.

Sorry for the dramatics, I lost my mom when I was 21

And the training consisted of sitting in a classroom, then taking a paper test and scoring well enough, if not more. I loved AA 2

Before. America’s Army dropped for the PC in ‘02. I feel like grunts were getting chargers from like 06-current. Could be wrong though

Have you heard of/seen highlanders? They’re one of my personal favorites. (Outside of whatever one is closest to me)

 

Alden has created the greatest disc golf(adjacent) content I’ve seen. Never been a fan of vlogs, but these guys have incredible energy.

Most of this comment is out of left field. Wow. Uh.

Dealing with a couple coyotes. Honestly probably didn’t need a gun.

This study shows coyotes predate on humans up to 37% of known attacks. That person was fortunate to have a firearm.

Dude said he wouldn’t feel better with a rifle, well, from his personal anecdote, to mine, I would. I am much more likely to be accidentally shot by my friend with the handgun imo.

I don’t know how much of a problem that is, oh and it’s going to snag on something. I’m not a gun nut.

Your lack of experience is obvious. I’m not going to go into all the reasons you can clear buildings and rooms without reaching for a handgun, as muzzle discipline and accuracy become exponentially more difficult. There’s a reason SWAT breaches with rifles and not handguns, well, them and any one else that has quick access to a rifle in the situation.

consumerist trend to load up guns with extraneous shit and go for longer and longer guns.

I work at a gun store, that’s simply not true. SBRs and AR pistols exist and are extremely popular.

don’t compare what we did to terrorists, look at the IRA.

right, or the ongoing conflict in Ukraine. Or the literal decades of combat US special operators have with the platform since Vietnam, or any other of its long, violent life. Or you can ask any of these countries, or, look into any of these use cases

Maybe don’t chime in on things you’re absolutely clueless on? I’m trying to figure out how to put this somewhat nicely but you clearly have some misguided thoughts here. And none of this comment has anything to do with the fact that, if surrounded by a pack of hungry animals, I want an AR-style rifle personally.

Anecdote time! I went to infantry basic training and we were told over and over again, if you have to draw your sidearm, you’re dead. The AR absolutely is not too bulky for close quarters and I would feel much better with one on my hand than anything else. The US army has murdered a lot of people with M4 rifles in CQC. (My politics don’t align with a stereotype of a former infantryman. Please do not assume too much)

In either situation, with adrenaline, good luck getting shots on target.

Hmm, I don’t understand the downvotes but okay lmao I’m sorry that the AR platform is actually fine in close quarters?

I’ll have to look into it. I never had a PlayStation so unfortunately these games missed me

Hahahaha wtf is this from

 
 

My favorite disc in my bag currently is the MVP Wave. 11 speed driver. Had a neutron one that got a bit flippy for me as my arm speed got faster, ordered a glow one. Money. I’ll probably get a backup!

Hi! I dye disc golf discs, finished product for a recent customer!

 

If you’re new to disc golf, one of the first things you’re going to ask is “how do I throw this thing?” Well, personally, I found that there was a ton of information out there, and a lot of it was fairly technical and all over the place. In my opinion, if you want to learn, stick to one coach that you like and don’t dilute too much. Here is my favorite “coach” in a video that teaches you all you really need to know in about 20 minutes.

Been her favorite spot since she was a kitten. For a while I thought she’d outgrow it, nope.

 

So, last night, my neutered, 5 year old boy cat just started howling and acting weird. I have 0 idea why. Other than, maybe he saw/smelled another cat last night that set him off? Idk. Has anyone else had this kind of a problem? Should I take him to a vet? He doesn’t seem to have a problem with me touching him anywhere but he’s definitely on edge and being weird/howling. He’s never done anything like this before. Thoughts?

Edit: I have taken him to a vet. We’ll see. Thanks everyone.

Edit 2: urinary blockage. Removing that and getting X-rays. Thanks everyone. Going to be an expensive visit I think.
