  • I always think its funny how bullets never seem to penetrate anything in movies. Like, guy hiding behind a barrel? Nope, cant penetrate, even with a rifle. The newest Batman movie had me shaking my head as he shrugged off multiple rifle rounds to his armor.

    Bullets are insanely dangerous and powerful. A .223 round can penetrate a solid brick wall pretty easily, and can destroy a cinderblock wall with some effort. Even if it doesnt penetrate, the amount of force applied is incredible. Plates designed to stop bullets have to be made in specific ways to make sure a bullet doesn’t penetrate, but even with that plate, the sheer force of an impact can break bones.






  • • Vinesauce, both Joel and Vinny. • Jacob Gellar has awesome videos. • Perun does really good work with Military analysis stuff. • Wendigoon is super wholesome and also has good videos. • Drifter’s Broadcast is a more recent discovery, but his Xcom challange videos are awesome. • Max Miller has wonderful videos. • Strat-edgy is really funny • Mikeburnfire and ZachHazard are really funny. There are more but I cant think of them.







  • Yeah i really prefer the lovecraft aesthetic of Quake 1 over the tech, body horror of the sequels. Science coming into contact with something that defies science and reason is one of my favorite genres of fiction. The Myst, Event Horizon, Doom (especially Doom 3,) and the newest Rimworld dlc all really scratch that itch of coming into contact with something outside of reality, outside of reason and understanding. Really wish for more of that.
