Because men outclass women in almost any physical ability

I have never heard this argument come out of someone who doesn't look like a wet noodle could outclass them in physical ability. It's always a keyboard warrior who hasn't cooked a meal since the Kraft Mac he made in 9th grade when his parents left him alone one evening and wouldn't know what the inside of a gym looks like if it weren't in GTA.

Motherfucker, I knew plenty of cis women who could easily out-class me in physical abilities and I was in the US military

The only people who care what's in the pants of the enlisted person beside them are pieces of shit who don't deserve to be there. Focus on your fucking job, and stop fantasizing about their crotch.

Not once did I ever wonder what a person was assigned at birth while I was in. They wouldn't be there if they couldn't physically do it.

Nobody is lowering qualifications of military personnel because the individual is trans.

I take issue with the title.

The term "new MAGA bosses" says "these ARE their new bosses and the staff aren't letting THEIR NEW BOSSES in"

Ajent Ornj doesn't have the authority to place these goons into the library of congress, therefore THEY ARE NOT BOSSES, new or otherwise. They are THUGS trying to break into a library after being told to leave, because they are there to ruin any positive thing there and burn half the contents. Figuratively or a literal bonfire, doesn't matter.

Suggested new title: LIBRARY OF CONGRESS STAFF TURN AWAY MAGA THUGS WHO CLAIM AUTHORITY WHERE NONE EXISTS

As shitty as things like this are, at least they're self identifying who needs to be in the Guillotine line.

Just set him on fire here, no need to launch a rocket with all the pollution that will create.

End result is extra crispy lunatic either way.

They get to send strongly worded letters to formally request that other nations possibly consider the contents of.

Or possibly maybe at some point in the future face slight financial consequences.

They're protesters with guns that refuse to use the guns to actually help people unless it's inside the extremely narrow scope of their rules.

When you're dealing with a person that refuses to listen to anyone around them, holding an intervention is useless. Discussing the problems don't help unless the person doing something wrong is willing to listen to the people they hate.

M1 carbine and 1911 owner here.

You can like whatever you like.

I made my 1911 slightly more modern with an underbarrel 1913 rail. So far I've put a bipod on it for giggles, and a light on it for low light shooting. But it usually stays empty to fit in my favorite holster.

If I weren't afraid of damaging something I can't afford to get repaired, I'd strip the carbine down and do a thorough cleaning and lubrication, maybe restain the stock. It was my late grandfather's though, so I really don't want to damage it.

10/10, good to see people training.

Damn, due to financial circumstances, I am tempted to request a refund since I've put less than 10 minutes in (I played the shit out of the mod before it was officially it's own thing, still haven't played Xen) and rebuy it on sale...

I'd feel like a douche though...

It's one banana, what could it cost, 10 dollars?

I actually used a similar process to make the paper for my wife's leatherbound journal.

Except I used a regular blender (you're right about the pain to clean)

Then grabbed a large rectangular plastic container and filled it with about a gallon of unsweetened, extra strong tea, and poured out the goopy almost-paper.

After sloshing things around to thin out the paper, I used a mesh screen secured to a rectangular frame, a4 size... Ish... To pull out a thin layer of pulp that's now a browner tint thanks to the tea.

Once this drains of water for about 30 seconds, enough to keep together, I flip it onto some cotton fabric, and cover it with another sheet of cotton.

Layer about 5 or 6 of these, then I use two boards with a 6mm threaded rod in each corner to sandwich the cotton/pulp stack.

Tighten the bolts on the rod and squeeze the ever-loving shit out of the whole thing, which gets rid of almost all the water.

Then I peel everything layer by layer, and let the foldable-but-weak proto-paper dry out on a wooden board overnight.

The result is fairly smooth, but textured with whatever it was pressed with, paper that looks like it belongs in a medieval fantasy rpg.

I've also press dried flowers, made a super thin layer of pulp, tossed a couple petals in, and finished the pulp layer to make embedded flower pedals. Those can be hard to keep nice the way I do it but the result is an invitation or event card that you don't want to give away. I haven't used it for any journal projects because it doesn't stand up to flexing very well.

If anyone is interested I can take a couple pics of the journal when I get home. I have no pics of the process, unfortunately. I'll have to make more this summer.

I would still say I don't understand written German, and I certainly couldn't understand SPOKEN German, but I understand enough to understand the memes.

So thanks for that, ich_iel!

Okay, yes, it checks a TON of genocide boxes, and every action Russia has made this whole time supports genocide, and they literally are calling for it at the state level, but can you really say for sure that it's genocide?

I mean just because it looks like a duck, quacks like a duck, waddles like a duck, and shares 99.999% the same DNA as a duck, doesn't mean for sure it's a duck.

I'd say the /s isn't necessary, but apparently it is since people still seem confused about the whole "genocide" thing... Somehow
