They have a tendency to not use those exact words, though does it matter? You either do or don't. I have a feeling most of us don't anything just slows the progression. Some do though.

How much though? We are kind of weirdly glass hammer, we hit and we break; one thing is that in a lot of war, esp ww1 and 2 the average frontline soldier lasted only a year or two. "Old hands" were in their early twenties. Kind of belies a crucial point one often overlooks in history, all those...

It was a long time ago. Her point was that it will eat you alive, and it does. You close dead eyes and it takes something out of you. Mostly now I think I fear that it is not have any consciousness post death, screaming to get out while dead. Something like that. Or I covered a station for a...

I don't know how it is other places, like for Firefighters, it was at a Church, after hours, go to a meeting, and the therapist being alone with you and saying one had to just get over it. She was trying to be helpful, I'm sure. There is not getting over it though.

C'mon its all in your head.

Similarly, the flip side is the "power of positive thinking" you go to the doctor and they assure you depression, and ptsd have external causes.

Crew served weapons are an interesting phenomenon where the weapon stays in action as nobody wants to be the one that let the team down. I have heard, such as from my Father, firing ones rifle the target is often just a small dot in the distance, you don't know what happens, fire at that, it...

It is also baked into other data saying that of the big industrial wars, artillery is the main casualty causer, such as at +50% vs small arms, at 5% or so.

Very sad, my condolences. :(

It is like if someone hates you, there is no point of figuring out why. It won't change anything.

I don't know anything about combat. I did use to be security at a huge dance club in NYC and it was a real drag because every night you knew you would get in a fight; I mean, that was the job. After a while it became like an instinct to know who to watch out for, so not get a bottle broken over...

I saw an interview with a bunch of kids after a shooting in Chicago, and one thing that stuck with me was one of the kids saying "We want to be the shooter" and the other kids agreeing. There has to be that willingness to fight, and kill, to be effective. Training is another layer.

I think I exist on the polar opposite: "here's an idea, and I don't care to fight about it." People will attack over nothing though. Though you are right, the issue is engaging in the first place.

It is funny when like writing a doc and it lights up the spellcheck. Though I think in RPG's it's often crud like you say.

The suffix -ist is used too much.

it's more and more true

lying condescending bleh I just hate people anymore Louis: Eckhart saw Hell too. He said: The only thing that burns in Hell is the part of you that won't let go of life, your memories, your attachments. They burn them all away. But they're not punishing you, he said. They're freeing your soul...

70's TV was often crap, endless MASH, Three's Company, or Happy Days. Blake's Seven, and Dr Who were awesome, and only seen on PBS, but PBS wasn't so bad, back then there weren't a lot of TV channels. I remember seeing Image Union, and it was pretty good: Image Union - Wikipedia

Chris is a good guy doesn't deserve this, I shared it on masto and fb.
