Footfall nails this. Aliens show up and drop rocks on us from orbit. The reason we prevail is the only plot I’ve read that makes sense.

Solid explanation. I’d only add that I see the word in fiction used to describe Europeans and Americans as expats if they’ve been overseas for years and not even working. Seems to be people who eventually mean to return home.

Can we get The Black Sun while we’re at it?

Look here dude, we still doing “no nut November” or what?! Why must you tempt me?!

Uh, no:

“The man in black fled across the desert and the gunslinger followed.”

Got this one. Only one on the market I know of.

Same bolt came in my Han Solo pistol.

It’s worked surprisingly well in the past, but I just put a heavy (H3) weight in to reduce recoil, probably won’t cycle .22LR any longer. And BTW, that heavy weight is a dream! My wife’s friend brought his stock AR to our camp and I was shocked how much harder it kicked.

I have an easily swapable bolt that let’s my AR-15 shoot .22LR. Pretty nifty, though not quite as accurate since the bullet is .003 thinner.

The other books are far more plot and character focused, less exacting military stuff. If you like RSR, you might like the following books even more. It’s an outlier, but not too far, from his other books.

Is the question time sensitive?

Fahrenheit 451 was fascinating for the sub-story about the TV walls and, “Oh look! The White Clown is on!”

Best friend held an acid party back in 1991 or so. From where we stood we could see all 3 TVs, 3 different sizes. He said, “Check it out. The attention people pay to the screen is directly proportional to it’s size.” Didn’t matter was was on screen, the larger it was, the more people stared, the less they talked. That’s really stuck with me.

And the parasocial relationships with the people are the screen foretold much.

Can’t imagine many would care about book burning today. I only know one other person that reads books, and few even “read” the internet.

My dentist made me a silicone mold for $70. All I have to buy is cheap whitener off Amazon.

Tell them it’s all good, the GOP is only aiming to repeal Obamacare.

Trump says ‘I don’t kid’ after aides argue he was joking about slowing coronavirus testing.

I wish my problems were so fucking pathetic.

I’m armed, and competent with arms.

Liberals: “BAN GUNS!”

How’s that working out for you? Good luck on the trains.

And where do these people live that they’re hearing blowers all the time?! Bizarre.

You are very confused regarding the rank and file vs. officers.

Simple, because he didn’t make a direct threat, didn’t direct anyone else either. Hell, he didn’t even call for her death. Trump’s using the mob boss language he learned in NYC.

“I think OP should have 9 guns pointed in his face for posting this.”

See how that works? All I said was that you should be threatened. Didn’t threaten action myself nor direct anyone else to action.

Speech like this is clearly stochastic terrorism, but the US really doesn’t have laws around it. I would hope there’s an incitement angle to this, IANAL, but our strong 1A rights make it sticky.

AHHH!
