You Know What Blows My Mind Sometimes When I Randomly Remember It? How Crazy Military Weapon Systems

You know what blows my mind sometimes when I randomly remember it? How crazy military weapon systems can be. Like just the other day I was talking with a friend about anti-air weapons and the crazy high fire rate some of them have.

They had seen a video of some system, and how it seemed to be loaded with just tracer rounds but they were spitting these tracers out really quick. And I got to reveal to them that those tracers were actually like every 10-20 or so rounds, so the crazy amount of red lines in the video from the tracers were actually a fraction of what was being shot from this weapon system.

Now that I think more about this interaction I think it was a CWIS system on a Navy vessel but he didn’t show me the video so I don’t actually know what kind. But that stuff actually exists and it’s so crazy to me that the military has that kind of fire power as a defensive option. Really cool though.

Anyway, random hyperfixation post over

Liar Liar (Wasteland Monarchy) by Kamelot.

My fella, I feel this on a deeply personal level. All we can do is keep trying. It’s not gonna work all the time, hard days will happen. But just keep trying every day. Any small victory is a victory worth celebrating. Keep on being you mate. You’re worth so much more than you could believe.

TRIGGER WARNING - low self esteem and self worth

I’m always trying to be positive and trying to love myself but sometimes I can’t help but wish I wasn’t autistic.

Maybe people would accept if I wasn’t so different

Maybe i would be enough if I was able to just know what to do like everyone else

Maybe people would stay

Maybe they would love me…

Man I Love Being Both Autistic And Adhd At The Same Time. Can’t Focus On Just One Thing I Gotta Collect

Man I love being both autistic and adhd at the same time. Can’t focus on just one thing I gotta collect all the hyperfixations like trading cards that I’m never gonna do anything with. It’s great lol

Honestly same. Lowkey might start carrying stuff around to feed the crows and ravens on my college campus whenever I see them. They’re awesome

Man I love having no cohesive thoughts sometimes. Been trying to think of something worthwhile to post but can’t. So that’s my random thought. Brain be wilding not making any sense. Love that for me.

Literally couldn’t be me right now with my best friend who has shown me nothing but respect since I’ve met her. Sometimes I hate having feelings lol

"Have you been avoiding me?"

"What?! Me? Nah… it's not like i, uh, caught feeling for you and now I'm having literally the worst existential crisis ever" starts hyperventilating "what reason could i possibly have to avoid YoU" chuckles awkwardly while trying to catch his breath

@ironcastva yo this you when you talk to fey creatures? This feels like something you’d pull

"Your parents named you IRON?" Shouted the fey, while screaming in pain. "yes they did."

You can’t believe how lonely it is being touch-avoidant and single but also wanting so badly to have someone to cuddle with that it hurts. My social battery has been so dead the past couple days and I just want someone to cuddle with while I recharge. But I don’t have a partner and it’d be weird otherwise so here I am suffering in silence YET AGAIN

I’ll make an entire dedicated blog post about it just for you my mysterious tumblr mutual. It probably won’t be until after Christmas but it’ll happen this week for sure. Probably.
