Guns 

The disconcerting thing is how easy a semiautomatic handgun is to use? Like, five minutes of instruction and you're basically set. And when shooting it's easy to not think about the fact that you're actually launching a fragment of supersonic lead.

I think knowing how to use a gun is a skill that's good to have and I'm glad I'm practicing, but wow would the world be better if they just didn't exist.

I sincerely hope I never have to handle one anywhere other than a controlled environment.

Guns 

Went shooting again today. Feels like I'm starting to actually know what I'm doing.

It's in a weird space emotionally for me. Purely as an activity it's fun, but I kinda try hard to not think about what the handgun is designed to do, and the idea of guns in general still makes me a bit uncomfortable. It's cognitive dissonance zone.

@forestservice @starryblush@witches.town "what if it were like this thing? you know. purely hypothetically."

@Jessiscah@mastodon.social just me or does that scream "fragile masculinity"?

Pretty lewd, personal 

Amazing thing: having my partner gently use a warm towel to clean up the mess I made all over myself, while I just lie back and drift and let myself fall asleep.

@tcql@octodon.social Tusky crashes when I try to open that image. is it cursed? o_0

"The Bad Decision Engine: mental health and social antipatterns in Night In The Woods and Bojack Horseman"

Apparently if I hear someone say the phrase "telegram​ sticker pack" I just assume they're a furry.

Mastodon harassment stuff? 

Does anyone have a primer on what's going on? Because I have no idea. I'm just seeing the backscatter.

... next time I get to name a mace in an RPG, I'm calling it "free speech".

Next time I get to name a sword in an RPG, I'm calling it "diplomatic sanctions".

the spirit spade, which won't just dig a hole for you to plant a bulb in, but which will actually warp space so that there is more room for it to take root. has jewels around the upper end of the blade, which is connected to the handle by a bolt of lightning. the handle has a big-ass gem on the end

really wanna work more on my project for making high fantasy overdesigned non-violent tools. like the magical shovel of danekor, carved with the face of the ancient spirits which inhabit it, fabled to break through solid rock like loam. or the enchanted prybar of the first kingdom, which is said to be able to pry apart any objects, no matter how fixed together. all glowy and impractical! like ridiculous warcraft weapons except... not weapons

@tcql@octodon.social I dunno if you're talking about the book or the tv show (I've only read the former) but I thought that was kind of explicitly being invoked?

TFW finding the cute femme pants in your dresser you forgot you owned :D
