    I’m somewhat partial to Mirv

    Edit: they grow up so fast

      That was my laptop background for a really long time, almost feels nostalgic to see it again!

        It’s a great photo. Fucking terrifying to think that there could have been a 300kt boom at the end of each of those pretty lines

          Oh absolutely, that right there is annihilation in a picture. You wouldn’t even see the lines, just a wall of nuclear blasts. It feels surreal that this is something that not only exists but that humans, human individuals, have access to in the thousands.

            Gods are we. Capricious, horny Greek mythology gods, but still.

          So glad you asked. Rich, aka New York National Guard, aka Buffalo police officer, aka “AngryCops”, bought a fire truck and had it converted to a Morale Response Vehicle, for veterans and charity events. It’s a bit like the vet version of ECTO-1 from Ghostbusters, but even louder and with cold kegs. I heard a rumor about a crash, hope it’s not a RIP for the MRV. POB.
