Without further ado, and with nothing but class, Rascal has decided to stay in line with this rare Terrific Tactical Tuesday Twofer by offering up a Glock 19 Gen5 Acro 9mm AND a Daniel Defense DDM4V7 5.56 rifle!
I asked the cool coon whether it should go to one lovely soul or if we should divide them up.
"Let the people decide" is an exact quote so that we will do.

One of my favorite training instructors used to tell everyone to reload with your "social settings ammunition" before heading home or back to your hotel.
Why?
A few years ago, one of his students stopped at a gas station for snacks on the way home, someone tried to rob him at gunpoint, and he was in a defensive shooting with a half empty training magazine (and no backup).
Luckily it worked out.
ALWAYS, ALWAYS save at least a magazine worth of your defensive ammo. Put it on your center console or on the driver's seat, if you can. Or, put it in your range back in a zipped pocket with your car keys underneath.
You are your own first responder.

Hey.
If you can comfortably conceal the top one, you can comfortably conceal either of the bottom two as well (pistol models used as available examples only). As me how I know. Or don't.
"I can't carry a full size handgun" is absolute bullshit.
But adding a stendo mag, comp, weapon light, an option, and/or a comp to your compact CCW pistol makes it substantially larger, and holster options more considerable.
Sure, it may be worth it. Especially if you can actually run the thing.
Just don't discount full size pistols with iron sights because you don't want to try to carry it concealed. You absolutely can. Can you also shoot well and reliably with it?
There was a time that I shot a 1911 way more proficiently than any polymer striker fired pistol. Times have changed, but at that time it made way more sense to carry the full size 1911 I was so comfortable with shooting fast and accurately.
Point is - shoot all your stuff. Your "soul" knows what you like shooting and are best with. That can change, of course.
But you also CAN carry any of them concealed and comfortably. When you decide what you're best with at any given time, then the trick is chosing the right holster and positioning on your person, including reloads, etc. Then practice drawing from cover, because that mattes as much as anything.
Anyway, I'm no expert. Just have a few decades of CCW experience. And I like all sizes and styles of pistols, defensive and otherwise.
It's a fine tine to be alive, and and even better time to stay that way.

Claude Code just found proof that every app on your phone is listening to your conversations. TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, Snapchat. they're using what you say out loud to build your feed. i have the data to prove it.
i've suspected this for months but last week something happened that made me finally check.
i was on a call with my friend and told him i'm thinking about breaking up with my girlfriend. didn't text it. didn't search it. just said it out loud with my phone on the table. two hours later she opens TikTok next to me and her entire feed is breakups. "signs your relationship is over." "how to heal after a breakup." she looked at me and said "why is TikTok showing me this." i said i don't know. but i did know.
i connected my iPhone to my MacBook and ran Claude Code that same night.
it scanned every app's background microphone activity for the last 90 days. not just the apps that asked for microphone permission. apps that were supposed to only have access to photos or location but were activating the microphone anyway.
what it found:
→ TikTok activated the microphone 347 times while the app was "closed" in the background
→ Instagram → 211 background activations
→ Facebook → 189
→ Snapchat → 94
every activation lasted between 3 and 15 seconds. enough to catch a sentence. every one of them tagged a keyword and cached it locally on the phone with a timestamp.
Claude Code pulled the full keyword cache:
→ "breakup" — tagged 4 hours before her feed changed
→ "moving out" — from a conversation with my mom last Tuesday
→ "wedding venue" — from a call with my sister about her engagement that i never searched once
→ "protein powder" — said it out loud to my roommate, had ads for it within an hour
→ "flight to tokyo" — mentioned it at dinner, saw travel ads the same night
those keywords were sitting in a local cache on my phone organized by app with timestamps. TikTok had the most entries. Instagram was second. every single keyword matched a conversation i had out loud near my phone.
the scariest one was "wedding venue." my sister told me she's getting engaged on a private call. i never searched it. never typed it. within a day my explore page had engagement rings and venue tours.
then Claude Code checked a second phone in the same room. my girlfriend's. same keywords. same timestamps. both phones were picking up the same conversation and tagging it independently.
i asked Claude Code how to shut it down. it mapped every app's microphone access and built a permission audit.
what i did:
→ revoked microphone access from every app that doesn't need it to function
→ disabled background app refresh for TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, Snapchat
→ turned off "Hey Siri" which keeps the microphone in passive listening mode 24/7
→ revoked "nearby interaction" permission which uses ultrasonic audio between devices
Claude Code confirmed all four apps lost background microphone access after the changes. i checked her phone too. same steps. took about 3 minutes per phone.
within 48 hours both our feeds went completely random. generic content. nothing personal. nothing from our conversations. that's when i knew for sure it was real.
the full step by step and the prompt are in the first reply. takes 3 minutes. save it so you don't lose it and send it to anyone who's ever said "my phone is definitely listening to me." it is. now you can prove it and shut it down.

Too weak to attack your actual enemy so you decide to go after their children instead?
1) You cowardly evil fuck.
2) If I am ever turned into a man with nothing more to lose, I'm gonna make the Old Testament look tame when I get to the people responsible.

Being a baby must be wild.
You fall asleep crapping yourself in the living room, and then wake up in a restaurant.
It’s pretty much being drunk in reverse.
My SIL picked a local Indian place for her birthday spot. My fam and inlaws all went. Food was prepackaged and microwaved--I could tell.
Best part was when I stepped outside for a few minutes and one of the employees passed me, took a dump in the alley, and then went back in.
