Stop violating Hippos!

A relative used to mail me NRA magazines back in the day and it was all fear porn and "good guy with a gun saves the day". Dude never got to save the day and shoot some marauding (likely black) thug and instead died of shitty life and health choices. Man he spent a lot of timing preparing to shoot another human.
I imagine most of the open carry people daydream about the different scenarios where they would be called into action and be the hero. It’s fucking fantasy cosplay.-

Yet most that oppose open carry would freak the fuck out if it was banned. I think it's the dumbest fucking thing and completely goes against notions of discretion and courtesy that was taught to us as young hunters. Don't frighten the non -gun owner. That's both courtesy and self-serving to protect your right to own guns. It's basic, don't be a dick and keep your rights.Most people that carry here dont believe in open carry. Not necessarily not believe in the law, just that it’s ignorant to show your cards. Sort of antithetical to the purpose for those that feel the need to carry. That’s my takeaway mental polling from active involvement in the gun owners thread over the last however many years going back to the scat site.
Now days it's fuck your feelings I'm going to parade my AR around.
And for some reason we let the fringe set the rules.-

I grew in a shitty part of Houston and kept a loaded shotgun under my bed through high school. Carried on a commercial construction project when I went back to Houston and we were working nights. Everyone did and we still had issues.
Moved to West Austin and haven't carried since. Pistol is in a safe by the bed. All my other guns are in a safe.
I'm far more worried about gun accidents than I am about self defense. And anecdotally I know more people that have experienced death or injury due to gun accidents or friends or family going nuts (multiple horrible incidents) than from home invasion or robbery (zero shots fired). One of my friends that carries in Houston got robbed and when he tried to draw he got the fuck beaten out of him instead of just handing over his wallet and watch. Fuck living in fear or shooting someone over possessions.
We sold the family ranch so my son hasn't had a ton of shooting experience since. I'm pretty leary of public gun ranges and we share many other hobbies that don't lead to fucking death.
ThisI can’t even imagine feeling so scared in my own home or driving around town that I needed a gun.
I feel bad for y’all.-

Except we choose to give an exceptional amount of power to the single winner of popular vote contest, then we decided to skew that vote to favor the winner of the common clay of the new west over general majorities. Then we did nothing to check that power when it proved to be dangerous and horrible. Then we ceded power to a retarded narcissistic who took us to the brink of facism, he barely ceded, we all ceded the threat was over and started whistling past our own graves.Can we stop with the popularity equals merit bullshit. Hootie has a top 10 all time sales album. The Force Awakens is #5 all time box office gross. The fact that (a likely overstated) number of simpletons passionately show up at rallies is about as compelling as New Kids on the Block poster sales in the late 80s
This is our concern dude.-

Yo tambien. What do normal people use besides fingers?I haven’t seen your commercial, but I also have never seen a grandma use anything but fingertips to flip tortillas. -
Red Beans and Rice most errday if it's a Monday over here. Sometimes with Tasso, or ham hocks, or old frozen pork scraps. Sometimes more vegetarian. Always slams
Spaghetti and meat sauce is always an easy way to stretch a buck.
Cajun stewed chicken legs over white rice is super easy and a hit.
3 cheap-ass frozen pizzas works.
Refried bean and cheese tostadas.
HEB marinated chicken thighs for fajitas (about 3-4 lbs) on the grill,
tortillas, 2-3 cans of refrieds.
Shakshuka.
Breakfast for dinner: pancakes, scrambled eggs, sausage patties.
Fideo.
I could do this all fucking day.-

Et tu Fudge Nuggets?I know a way they can make the dotard knife the most popular knife since the Bowie knife. But I won’t mention it for fear of winding up on a Secret Service hit list.

The reports have been that Russia has generally moved ammo stockpiles and other high value targets just out of HIMARS range.

Laws like "Thou shalt not kill"?Ugh, it’s very hard to break through to the “supporting Russia cause of Orthodox” people. Converts tend to be the worst. In a shitty situation, I ended up in a long car ride with one who just kept coming back to the subject no matter how I tried to duck it, and got cranky when I told him I wouldn’t be setting foot in a Moscow Patriarchate church so long as Kirill was around.
He got super upset when I explained that Ukrainians shouldn’t be expected to care about the intricacies of canon law and who has the right to grant autonomy at a time when Russian priests were blessing the missiles that were blowing up in their hospitals and apartments. His response was “God’s laws must take precedence over earthly concerns.”-

I was thinking he had inside info that the old bird was a freak in the sheets.[mention=943]MagicSoccerSpray[/mention]was probably thinking of how Thatcher handled Argentina and the USSR, and not ... well ... the domestic stuff. Everything else. You know, the bulk of her legacy.-

Yep that's exactly it. I used to not feel comfortable eating a meal without milk, a soda or maybe a lemonade for a drink. It just wasn't "right". So I didn't drink sodas or anything with sugar for about a decade until water became normal, maybe sparkling water at a nice meal.Former fatty-ish here -- 260 at 6'3" in my late 20s/early 30s. I'm now around 200 at 41yo. Cutting back a bit for another visible abs summer (douche alert), when I'll be low 190s.
Is it simply or just a lifestyle change? Not quite. it took the better part of a decade for my wife and I to deprogram ourselves from our poor people lifestyle patterns and the typical American diet. We are still working on it but are pretty close to a good equilibrium that allows us to have fun but not pack the pounds back on.
But I think it's facile to chalk it up to diet. Or wrapping it up neatly in a package of just lifestyle change. Most people need to be comfortable with it being dozens or hundreds of small good habits that you build, and bad habits that you lose until, one day, you blink, and you can't believe how you looked in pictures or what you used to eat.
But I agree with those in here that think it's asking a lot to make a broad lifestyle change. But to ask people to do something small better a few times a month until, a year or two down the road, it aggregates into a lifestyle change? That's fair.
I used to have a small dessert after dinner. Mostly nope there too.
I used to get fries, mostly nope. If I do I'm splitting a small fry maybe.
Over time I just don't want fries. I don't want carbs. But you start eating that shit and the body wants it more.
I relaxed a bit, I'll order a coke on a plane because it's like 4oz of shit not 44 Oz and trust me after you obstain for awhile the little airline soda cup is amazing and enough sugar. -
6-1 185, mid 40s here. Losing weight is hard because you really do have to make lifestyle changes and keep them. Forever. Which is fine if you want to enjoy your older years.
The consistency is hard. I use all kinds of tricks to stay motivated, find what works for you and dont let excuses pop up. Every bit of effort matters. I use planned trips as motivation- got to be ready for that surf trip this July and i need strong shoulders; I need strong legs to protect my knees so i cant skip leg day. I have 20 min before my kids game starts- get in a short run, bang out some push ups, do some burpees. 30 min of yoga is better than none. Feel like shit, hit gym and give it 20 min, I almost always end up going full workout once there. Hire a trainer, prepay for classes -whatever it takes. Play sports with your kids. Go ref some games. Take the stairs. Walk more. All of it.
I lift 3-5 times a week, do yoga 2-3x a week, paddle on the lake or swim and mountain bike. As you get older (mid 40s) injuries will sideline you creating excused to skip workouts which fucks shit up badly. When I last had a running injury and could no longer run I gained 10 lbs before I snapped to riding bikes and more yoga. Or my current knee injury, started gaining weight until I got in the gym and did whatever I could on crutches. If I can't burn a fuckload of calories then I have to eat clean and cut out booze completely. This week if I hit gym 5 days I'll reward myself with a few drinks for the basketball game and maybe some noach. Next week if I'm so busy I slack a bit, I gotta cut calories and fast some as my burn rate drops.
Highly recommend strength training and HIT training versus repetitive cardio. I've seen too many people over train just doing running. Either way mix it up. A buddy of mine lost 40lbs just walking, playing disk golf and doing basic body resistance work like push-ups and pull-ups consistently- every day. My brother on the other hand does hard core Keto plus cardio but the cardio is inconsistent so hes always hungry and suffering and chubby and pretty weak. Even on vacation get in some work to mitigate extra calories and not fall back into a rut. It's enjoyable as shit to run in Central Park or bang out a workout in a hotel gym before a fun day. It's great to hit a yoga class at the beach instead of drinking or hammock time. I also enjoy vacation more if I mix in a few hours of strenuous effort surfing, hiking, skiing, gym time, yoga or sport fucking before chill time.
Get your annual physical. Some get spiritual cause they see the light; some cause they feel the heat.-

Their few other actual policies: Tax cuts to the wealthy, licking the taints of our corporate masters and destroying the planet probably don't poll very popular. Gotta play your best card, even if it's "intense interest in children's genitals."If the Republicans are trying to create problems where none existed a few years ago, and they are obsessed with genitals and bathrooms, what are they actually trying to distract their base (or their opponents) from? You don't manufacture problems unless you want to distract somebody, so what is it? Trump?
They'd cancel MASH over Klinger but that show is popular with thier demo, so they go after other dudes dressing up in places thier constituency would never set foot like libraries.-
