    Is it wrong that my first thought is GGG is going to be fucking insufferable about his lineup getting dragged?

    No no, we look experienced.

    Agreed, Hoppe has the motor to match Aaronson’s work rate. Straight gas for 90 minutes.

    Acosta picked a great game for his service to evaporate.

    Still a frustrating lack of tactics and identity in the final third. We have a legit striker on the field, zero service. Weah not looking for him far post on that sequence was criminal. CP and Weah tracking back is killing our ability to counter. Pepi vs 3 on long balls isn’t going to work. If Weah and CP stay higher those CBs can’t close down on Pepi and he has a more realistic chance of turning or holding.

    Paramount’s streaming ability is dogshit. So many cutouts and shit.
  12. Yea, that’s one of the perks of living on or around bases back then. I played in a German half track in front of my dads garrison in Schweinfurt a bunch as a kid. I also got to go to a night gunnery with M1s. They thought it was real fucking funny to convince a kid to watch the end of the barrel when firing in pitch black night…
  13. I’m not, and its weird that that’s your take. I’m pointing out that making a subject verboten and/or trying to shield them from it rarely works out. You can either be an active participant in your child’s education about something, or you are willingly outsourcing that education to someone else. Someone else being the likely worst parts of the internet, their dip shit friends that also probably learned a lot from the worst parts of the internet, or other adults that may or may not have their best interests in mind. Politics, racism, sex ed, drugs, alcohol, all of them. It’s been my experience that the more you resist or try to suppress a subject, the more interested a kid gets about it. I would also add, that if you’re seeing your kid using extreme political language or memes, it’s something they are being exposed to regularly. Your home is the likeliest source, and while parents that think they do a good job hiding their vices, kids are very perceptive and will idolize and emulate those vices because their favorite people do them. A kid won’t hear let’s go Brandon in passing and latch onto it. A kid hearing his dad saying it and all his friends high fiving about it will get their attention.
  14. I flip fox on every now and again to see what that side of the aisle is focused on. Yesterday they had Bill Barr on, and they meandered from Hunter’s laptop to Jackson’s hearing. Barr laid out the “republicans won’t turn it into a show like the dems did for Kavanaugh and Barrett” line, but then he went off script and said (paraphrasing) “but they did this with Trump’s cabinet nominees too, they held all of them up, republicans don’t do that.”
  15. Never discussing sex ed and sheltering kids from the subject by hiding them in Christian schools has also historically worked well to prevent kids from having sex.
  16. I would think Huntsville would be, but since they exist completely on defense/federal spending I can see a lot of Republican votes despite any personal leanings.
  17. I keep bouncing between different characters. My confessor is around 90 now. I have a prisoner and hero in the 60s. The only class I couldn’t keep playing was the astrologer. Pure casting class is just hella hard, especially early on. At some point I want to try a samurai. It bears repeating, the scale of this game is just amazing. The underground area is almost as big as the main map, which I still haven’t opened completely. Just a bonkers amount of content and the variation on areas and monsters is awesome. I wish you could do more legit co-op instead of it being limited to instances, but that’s a minor complaint. This game is worth every penny at full price.
  18. That’s getting into treaty of Versailles territory, which worked so well the first time. Maybe use oligarch seized stuff, but the Russian people can’t be punished continuously for Putin’s choices unless you want to galvanize Russian sentiment even further that the west is out to fuck them.
  19. We have some really lightweight drones that look similar to this. Raven is one that comes to mind. Some are designed to come apart on “landing” to disperse impact energy.
  20. Cruelty is the point. That and destroying as much of Ukraine as possible to make the EU blink about accepting them due to the massive rebuild/economy restart cost.
  21. An Apache is just as vulnerable to ground fire/MANPADS, the difference in attrition is more due to TTPs IMO. Combat helo pilots loathe daytime ops. Even with the ability to terrain mask and rely on mast mounted radar, you’re still easy to see and shoot from the ground. I knew day one seeing the Russians flying lazy donuts in daylight that they were in deep shit. Their NVGs must be dogshit, or their pilots aren’t current on them. Flying at night takes a LOT of training, and it’s been a point of emphasis for our forces for a long time due to being a big part of the majority of class A mishaps. My guess is they didn’t want to spend the money on NVG upkeep and/or flight hours.
  22. I’m a couple of Uncle Rico throws from Hood. I won’t even hear the boom.
