Gita is narrating my life right now.

Yelled at by multiple people through glass and metal while having lights waved at you from all directions. So not only are you trying to parse a half dozen voices, they’re all slightly muffled. 

It’s basic urban assault planning. SWAT and soldiers do it all the time: if you can’t guarantee that you’ll be able to enter a building (or a car) in this case without significant risk to your personnel, then you seek alternatives. If you’re in a combat zone and you’re in a hurry, that can mean just leveling the…

You’re right.

I mean... I’m a fucking know-nothing person who was in the Army once, so maybe I’m not as smart as these vaunted officers of the law, but if the dude has a gun on his lap and you’re so damn concerned about him maybe reaching for it, maybe you should back the hell up and give him space?

That’s the rub though. It’s not their last hurrah, and it never will be.

Can you provide a citation for this statement?

I’m with you. I went to see CM, and some dude ordered nachos and sat next to me. He then proceeded to chew with his mouth open.

Spiffy looking!

First: two people living off of six thousand dollars a month is considerably less than most of the public sector jobs you cited. Especially considering that the amount they make from Patreon is before taxes and don’t include benefits of any kind.

Nice numbers you pulled out of nowhere.

As someone who’s been in the industry for over a decade, and who’s now trying to break into indie game development, I’m completely gobsmacked at how little these folks are making on Patreon for this game.
