Ignore the court order. It’s much too close to an election to change the maps last minute, and the work was already done. We’ll revisit this for the next election.

I mean, the GOP has done this in multiple states. Fucking do it as well.

For sure dude! Action is a fun little space to be in for entertainment, happy to share some of the little that I know about it!

Hey guys I am a stunt guy so I can give you an answer to this!

So, it like, depends on the kind of fall that’s needed! The technique for falling down stairs like, where Rocky runs up the steps, or where John Wick falls down the stairs a billion times in Wick 4 are different than if you’re falling down something smaller like a set from a house, or even narrower.

A big part of it is wearing the correct protection when doing the stunt. We have everything from insert pads like these bad boys (https://store.afstunts.com/products/action-factory-polymer-insert-pad-2-0) to full on tactical armor. The latter being great as you can wear both an insert and tactical knee pads and you’re just covered in protection on your hard points.

But back to the narrow vs wide stair fall!

So for a wide stair you literally can lay along the steps, and just ‘roll’ down the steps! You keep your hands to your chest and kind of put your elbows into the L shaped nook of the stair, and place your way down however many you need to fall. For narrow steps, it’s a little more tricky as you kind of have to ‘ping pong’ your way down the staircase, but the concept is the same. You’re just going over your head as well since you can’t fit horizontally down the steps.

The concept though is you get your sharp points (knees elbows etc) into the L part of the step, and kind of control your fall down the steps however you need production to have you fall. You also are generally doing this at a pretty controlled rate. They can speed it up in post-production if they want to.

Fun fact, the way stunts gets their pay is your flat rate, plus ‘bumps’ for doing individual things. So the guy who’s fighting and doing just background action will get one rate, the guy who’s on fire, getting wire pulled across the shot and lands on the hood of a car is getting extra pay for all of those extra things he needs to do.

I got it! My laptop with all my user information died, and I had to wait for a charger to get here to get back on this computer. I’ll answer this in the general thread!

Ban it. In my mind, a country that has drug us to war multiple times, attacked our sailors, blatantly sided with a political party over the nation itself, and uses their online disinformation network to push propaganda against us, they are not an allied country in any sense of the word.

Dems wanted to pass a national gerrymandering ban. trump, in his infinite wisdom, told Texas and other red states he wanted more seats and they, in an unprecedented move, redistricted their states mid-decade to placate a despot.

Democrats are countering the gerrymandering republicans started, and you are solely blaming the Democrats for wiping out an illbegotten gain by republicans.

Stop being so pathetic, man. It’s really sad to see someone bend over this far backwards for fucking Nazis.

Easy. Stop every red dollar of aid to the country.

They do have their own land. Israel has stolen it.

Democrats don’t have a king, bucko.

Losing period makes your fight a wasted effort.

Standing by while republicans have wantonly suppressed the vote, deleted voter rolls, and likely literally have stolen elections is what is causing all the fucking issues right now. Dems need to fight fire with fire, then if they win they can ban gerrymandering nationally.

You offer erasure of a people. Nothing more.

Pretty much yeah.

I remember. Multiple people from my hs died in that war. But KBR sure as hell drug out the design times for up-armoring humvees to protest people so they could milk the govt for more money.

The moment I’d say your ‘defense’ force was killing women and children in Gaza, your 'settlers 'would try and kill me. Funny how that works huh?

You get no sympathy from me, bub.

Unlike Israelis, I’ve actually lived in a Muslim country, and I was perfectly fine. The only time I saw firearms was when I was at the airport arriving/leaving the country, when I ran into a Bedouin whilst in the desert, and when I saw a member of the royal family travelling and his guards had firearms.

I had zero issues living in a Muslim country for 2 years! Now, tell me. Do Christians and Muslims get treated fairly in Israel?

IDF has probably killed way more children.

Why would I want to go to Israel so a bunch of people will spit at me?

I’ll never understand how there wasn’t riots after that statement.

Sweet enjoy no one listening to you. Have fun on the sidelines.

Jackass? I have a political science degree, sweety.

Dems fund cops more because up until BLM, it was a policy that was bipartisan to do. Now, way more democrats are leery about writing blank checks to cops. Also, were you even alive for the leadup to the Iraq war? Because I was. The democrats were given fake intelligence to justify the war. You expect people to just unilaterally oppose going after the people who attacked us after the biggest attack on the country since Pearl Harbour?

Businesses literally donate to all parties, that’s how shit works in this country. Lemme guess, you sit on the sidelines and want everything to change in the world, and when a politician gives you 50%, 75%, or 40% of what you want, that’s not enough. And then they lose, and now that politician that is now in office will give you 0% of what you want, and you now complain that you’re not being represented.

Here’s some news for you, cupcake. Politics is always about the lesser evil.

If you need to personally be courted, have every view of yours represented, and believe that chasing a plurality of voters is somehow a bad thing, then you’re the problem. Grow up. People who sat off on the sidelines and didn’t vote against the Nazi are just as guilty as those who pulled the lever for trump.
