Ready for some multi-fandom junk & hot mamma jammas? ▪︎I love Ask Games▪︎ ☆Luke~They/Them~25☆

theyre madly in love they want each other dead theyre trapped together in an endless cycle theyre divorced theyve been married for 25 years they know nothing about each other theyre each the only one who truly understands the other. i didnt say their name but they popped into your head didnt they

Today I learned that Keanu Reeves developed a "mag flip" technique for reloading a gun that is now being adopted by competition shooters and actual soldiers.

Basically he just kinda twists the gun hard enough that the magazine flies out on its own so he can put a new one in faster.

I just thought it was crazy that an actor developed a viable combat technique.

The director of John Wick confirmed that Keanu came up with this independently and a popular firearms YouTuber said he saw competition shooters and military friends practicing this. So I would say this is accurate with a medium level of confidence.

Reminds me of Heat when Val Kilmer’s reload was considered so smooth it’s used by the Marines as the standard for how to preform the action when under fire.

so this is what i've gathered from the memes and tumblr posts:

(please do not take this as 100% accurate. it's probably only like 78% accurate)

TITANIC II:

  • a few billionaires + a 19 year old + one other person(?) went into a "submarine" that wasn't actually a submarine
  • it was controlled by a VIDEO GAME CONTROLLER
  • and they were supposed to explore the titanic
  • and the submarine thingie didn't actually work and they KNEW THAT before getting on
  • and it imploded
  • and they all died
  • the only person anyone has sympathy for is the 19 year old bc he didn't wanna go on but wanted to make his dad happy
  • also celine dion is trending lmao
  • and fanfic is being written for the submarine (im slightly concerned)
  • oh and the company who made the submarine is called oceangate
  • this link. that's it, that's the addition.

RUSSIA:

  • there's a coup
  • and there's basically a civil war
  • and the person in charge of the coup said that he's trying to topple russia's military leaders
  • and ukraine just took back some of their land
  • also the troops stopped for coffee before fighting
  • important addition by @chimp-prolly-not-typing-hamlet: the rogue battalion that rebelled against Putin is a private paramilitary organization called Wagner’s Group which has been linked to far-right extremism and neo-nazism

GREECE:

  • the greek coast guard capsized a boat full of hundreds of migrants, killing 80 with over 500 people still counted as missing, and the eu won't even investigate (according to @socialist-microwave-laser, please go check this post for more info)
  • so yeah fuck capitalism actually

THE STOCK MARKET???:

  • logitech is NOT suing oceangate, that was a fake post

EXTRA SHIT:

  • andrew tate is being charged for rape and human trafficking
  • and apparently elon musk challenged mark zuckerberg to a jiu jitsu cage fight
  • and andrew tate offered to coach elon musk
  • the season finale of helluva boss came out!!! (s1e8)

yeah the world just decided to speedrun history today

(pls tell me if there's anything to add to this in the replies!!!)
