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.

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.

Pretty lewd, personal

@emanate I confess it may have been a partial inspiration.
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
