Well, *I* fucking expected it!

WOW, BLACK ICE, FINALLY!
WELL, AT LEAST GREY ICE. OKAY, KINDA SHIT-LOOKING BROWN ICE. BUT STILL…
good Bruce Schneier interview

My grandma got me this new gun. It’s red, which is kind of lame, but in her defense it is kind of hard to find realistic looking guns that still shoot. Especially cowboy guns. My dad told me I am lucky that it’s the seventies.
