@awl not quite, I'm looking for a noun that could be used as a general hypernym for, say, a caravan of camels

@awl I wonder which mythos would best suit me... perhaps being a god as befitting of my status of being the god for the religion of sim where we bully cuties and treat domestics as sacred.

@awl Why do you want a car that can't reach 250km/h

@awl That sucks Potato Knishes, are the bank going to do anything about it at least?

@awl Tesla's problem has been part quality. They've had a lot of breakdowns in such a way as pretty much indicates they're using low-quality metals in their construction, no doubt to improve margins. This was one of the revelations of the probes into the "NDA repair deals" fiasco that got looked into some time ago.

@awl im doing well ish. work was being a cherry to my gf so she quit today. now they are being rude to me. they are threatening me with a wright up because i didnt finish the dishes the other night. my shift had eneded and i didnt feel well enough to stay any longer to finish things up. I feel as though they are holding me back and not being kind. As a result i am frustrated and am highly considering finding different work. for the moment though I am taking things one step at a time and evaluating my options.

@awl I understand being opposed to police brutality but I don't know what refusing to stand for the national anthem has to do with that, when you just turn around and say you love the country and the anthem is an expression of love of country, not a blanket approval of everything it's ever done.

@awl Same here. It may suck now but I've done things nobody else could imagine doing... Made some really good friends and shared good times and bad times with them but we laugh at both of them either way.

@awl Also I'm trusting you to not use the information I share here to start a war with America pl0x. I'd get in so much trouble.

@awl I just want to go out of the way to say I absolutely love Russians. I'm trying to learn Russian myself. How was your time in the Army?

@awl NBC training goes once every two years but they normally send us out before that a lot just cuz we can. What branch were you?

@awl Everyone has to qualify on the rifle range once a year. Depending on your score you get one of three qualifications: Expert being the highest (me just to brag a bit), Sharpshooter, and Marksman which is the lowest. If you fail you are unqualified and have to try again. Same standards apply for pistol qual only certain Marines are required to qual with that. There are a number of different combat skill that need to be tested with varying intervals in which they need to be tested such as gas chamber and swimming which are every two years but we do them more often because we have nothing better to do. Most combat related skills are tested yearly.
