I bet there is a US base in whatever western shit hole you live in where they will shoot you dead with minimum hesitation if you so much as breathe in its direction

Reminds me of the Boy Boy video where they try and get on that remote base in northern Australia

“Where’s the beef!?”

-is the only burger add that really sticks in my brain, I think that was Wendy’s

On a digital purge for a bit, so only solo tabletop games and rpg journaling!

Picked up a new oracle (mythic gme) and two different core systems I’ll mix (2d6 dungeon and perilous wilds), it’ll be my first time playing a system that isn’t as ‘on the rails’ so to speak as Ironsworn.

But in the meantime I’m finishing up a dungeon dive in Iron Helm, then I’ll take those notes and turn that into a short story hopefully early this week and then next weekend I can dive into Perilous Wilds and 2d6 Dungeon

For some seniors whose house is paid off, and are living on a small fixed income the increase in property taxes can price them out of their retirement home.

huh idk what I expected by that description but it was defs something more exotic than 2005-style big round buds

Lol, I have really simple tastes in general, and I don’t really like the fit of IEMs. My daily drivers at home are a pair of large planar magnetic open backed headphones, so I also like how ‘open’ the faaeal buds sound.

“Flat Head”, thank you! That seems to be the style. The hard round speaker casing with the foam covers just fits really nice for my ears. The problem is every pair of those style you find out in stores are really cheap crap anymore, way back the cheapo pairs felt just like the faaeal ones do to me now.

Chi-Fi

I really really like these cheap buds I got from Faaeal, they sit in your ear but not inserted in your ear canal, so you still have situational awareness and can hear what’s going on around you.

Most of the chifi buds I’ve seen are like Moondrops where they go in your ear canal, do you know of any that are like my Faaeal Iris buds?

I have a pair where the battery is shot and can’t be replaced, not sure why I didn’t see that coming or why I maybe did and didn’t care at the time.

My next phone is going to have a headphone jack again for podcast listening, I do most music listening on an old ipod anyways.

Ghosts of My Life: Writings on Depression, Hauntology, and Lost Futures

Thank you, a new book!

They’re integral to the operation of private enterprise. It may be a sub conscious understanding, but they are very well aware that the “value” produced in the private sector is entirely enabled by the military, so they inherently give it a pass. Plus all the propaganda that makes people feel good and not terrified when an F-16 screams overhead in your city.
