The holy hand grenade of Antioch is a Anglican relic you absolute dolt.

Who are the angles? I didn’t vote for them.

Yeah - there’s actual video evidence of it exploding! Unfortunately that means that it no longer exists, so that would explain why it’s absent from the Pope’s blessèd gun rack.

Do they deal holy damage now?
eager_eagle@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
+10 holy damage +3 critical hit chance +2 accuracy -5 damage against atheists
VitoRobles@lemmy.today 3 weeks ago
How much damage can a human take though?
Based on these stats, going to guess 10-15HP, tops.

Blessed is the round, and blessed is the cartridge for it holds the round and all of its fury
Blessed is the magazine for receiving the round and holding it close.
Blessed is the barrel, for providing direction and guidance to the round
And most of all, blessed is Kurt Cobain for giving the round purpose, and for receiving all of its love within his body 😌prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 weeks ago
I do not aim with my hand; he who aims with his hand has forgotten the face of his father. I aim with my eye…

Apparently the way to make suicide jokes still funny in 2025 is to have had it happen in the 90s and for the person to be famous and queer?
ArchmageAzor@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
what does him being queer have to do with it?
Also people are now making jokes about 9/11. Tragedy turns into comedy after 20 years.

Are we not all on the brink?

Wat
Cobain was just the first person I thought of that’d make it clear it was satire, and I didn’t wanna spend all night working on a stupid joke

Honestly unsure if this is fake, thanks 2025!

Sigh. I would dearly love a proper bolt-action rifle. I’ve got a .22 (my first gun!) and a .22 magnum (left handed!), but zero excuse for a “real” caliber as I don’t hunt and my range at camp only goes out 100’.
Love the Marlin 1895SBL from Jurassic Park but I’m not hunting dinosaurs or 2,000lb. bison. Plus, the .45-70 (AR-15 round on the far left) would probably amputate my skinny armpit.
More on point, the first American Pope! I’ll look forward to reading more about how the College of Cardinals landed on this guy so quickly. Not sure I’ve seen a Pope chosen that fast!
AllHailTheSheep@sh.itjust.works 3 weeks ago
look into a .270. not a small caliber when you’re used to a 22 but not massive in the whole scheme of things. they’re quite fun at that range you were describing too, and they give you the opportunity to go a lot longer if you ever need/want it.
a .270 was my first hunting rifle, if a scrawny 11 year old could use it I have faith in you :)
Zink@programming.dev 3 weeks ago
.270 is a neat caliber. I rarely hear about it (not that I frequent gun discussions) but am familiar with it because that’s the caliber of my dad’s deer hunting rifle which also belonged to my WW2 veteran grandfather.
And yeah it’s not very comparable to a 22 except for starting with a two. It’s a high powered rifle. You can think of it like a .30-06 but with a slightly smaller and faster bullet.

I haven’t shot a 45-70 but I have a 35rem and have shot a breech load 450 bushmaster. It’ll put a little sting on you but it’s not that bad. Just make sure to keep the butt of the stick firm against your shoulder. I wouldn’t want more than 5 or 6 rounds at a time on the 450 though.

If you want a lot of fun at the range, blackpowder is a riot.
Bishma@discuss.tchncs.de 3 weeks ago
We have an American Pope. But it not being Micheal Ian Black is a wound my younger self may never recover from.
BobThortenLeftToeNail@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
The Vatican is such a huge scandalous and r@py real estate conglomerate. It’s crazy that in 2025 hardly anyone is pointing it out. Goes to show theres still lots of preconceived notions that needs to be addressed

The priest is blessing hunting rifles at the beginning of the season so that they will provide food and not harm people.

I’ve seen this image pre AI, but could still be photoshopped, but not necessarily

It could also just be good old fashioned acting…
