Once upon a time, a new nuclear plant was being built near me and there was a fair bit of opposition to it. Late opposition, since construction was already well underway and the plant was close to being commisioned.

A local radio station took some of their FCC mandated public outreach time and invited a panel of nuclear experts on to have a discussion and Q&A call ins to allay public concerns. It was facinating to listen to, to hear experts in their field discuss at length and answer the public's questions.

Then there was one caller who frankly sounded a little bit like a hippie with a bit of California dudebro in his voice. He went on to complain about carbon emmisions and how nuke power was bad for the enviroment. The panel was silent for a noticable moment, as if to say, "wait, what?"

They remimded the caller that nuclear plants are zero carbon emmision.

There's more to this though. In another pic of this set, it shows sliced pickle nipple pasties.

It's a soot sprite!

This bears about the same level of perceptive intelligence as the parents that back in 2017 wanted the eclipse events and gatherings moved to a non school day.

I saw the auction offering listings for these about a month and a half ago. Quite comprehensive, they had a detailed general history of that model, as well as the history of Gilmore's use of his.

Missed a trick for this one:
Buzzed on Light Beer.

At the risk of soundng blunt, if you run your mouth publicly, often, you tend to get on a "list." As a reporter, it's kinda in the job description, especially if you editorialize.
That's how gun control is supposed to work, keeping firearms out of the hands of those that are at risk for malicious intent.

Word has it that he does it every year on 9/11.

I've got a jar of dirt.

God killing spells? In the campain I used to run, that was just Tuesday. We had a 12,000 year old Elf spellcaster that could terraform planets.

The players wound up having a cleric who was the Pope equivalent of one of the gods of war join the party.
They also allied with a 35th level magic user whos best freind was an Amethyst Dragon.
Then there was the Rouge who passed on becoming a Theives Guild Master because it was "too restricting and wasn't ready to settle down."

I'm calling fake. Without an adapter, a blank does not generate any back pressure to cycle the action to chamber the next round. Needing to charge the rifle after every shot is a sign something is wrong. Wrong enough that at the range, you should stop firing and figure out why.

The adapters are also pretty obvious when mounted too.

Blanks also cause zero recoil without an adapter and with, the recoil is different, another obvious sign.

So did you guys flip a coin for who got to post this?

I only know what's happening because I've seen it already and with far more pixels and frames than this.

Samwise Gamgee approved.

Here's the thing... if you're gonna go that route, just cut to the chase and get yourself some Jameson Cold Brew. It's cold brew coffee and whiskey. Basically, Irish Kahlua.

Well...
A species of capuchin monkey in Brazil has officially entered the Stone Age. They did so 300 years ago in fact. Not only do they use stone tools, their use of stone tools is evolving. That's a huge leap past pointy sticks.

Kinda cool, kinda scary. From the article I read:
"If the monkeys follow a similar evolutionary process to humans, they will develop nuclear weapons at some point after the year 3,500,000.

We’re glad to report that the nightmare scenario of (another) nuke-crazed ape species running wild on our planet is unlikely to come to pass."

I don't care if you're Drax the Destroyer, when a toddler hands you a toy phone and says it's for you, you take it and say hello.
