Where has this been my whole life?
This beautiful invention dates back to 1840
Did you ever learn or maintain a skill set you either weren't supposed to or would be seen as anachronistic? And do so because it's interesting or fun? Like for example I'm teaching myself how to use a boatswain's pipe right now. Not because I'm a reenactor or anything, just for the funsies. I've taught myself how to pick locks, I'm slowly working on radio stuff with an eye to get a ham radio license one day, learned how to fight with a tomahawk and big knife, maintain the skill of orienteering regularly, amongst others.
Never know what's going to be useful when.
One interesting detail I've noticed up in them thar hills is there's a surprising number of dudes that casually walk around with knives on their belt. Well, surprising in relation to an urban area. Dudes that have open carry knives in urban areas have multitools and are geardos. Here, it's because it goes on with the pants. And I'm all for this. I get to have my knife on me and not feel like I have to keep it secret.
Sharpfingers, Buck 110s, Schrade Old Timers, and Walmart knockoffs seem to be the most popular. Multitools like a Leatherman or Gerber seem popular with the fishermen and actual farmers.
Purposefully targeting civilian infrastructure is a war crime. Purposefully using civilian infrastructure to shield military infrastructure is a war crime. Destruction of civilian housing without immediate military necessity is a war crime. Targeting civilians for killing and kidnapping is a war crime. Collective punishment in any instance is a war crime.
People need to quit it with these simplified, asinine shit takes on an extremely long running and complicated situation. It doesn't boil down to simplistic slogans fed to you by some blood and soil types hiding behind leftie platitudes or dipshits that still read the Protocols of Elder Zion and masturbate to it. There is no binary good guy/bad guy here. It's a proxy war, and in a proxy war the people who suffer are civilians just trying to live.
Do yourself a favor and if you're a fucking anti-semite, just be honest about it. If that makes you uncomfortable, why? Using a war thousands of miles away as an excuse to join the tiki torch crowd is an eleven on the asinine scale.
Remember kids...if you're going to sell out, sell out hard.
Through my actions, I both embody and seek Slack. Therefore, my life journey is to find myself.
