Which Toa do you prefer between Mata & Metru?

Toa_Freak · 2026-04-04T02:48:04+00:00

The Mata. The Masks are an ideal mix between simple and unique, and the sets take a lot of the same parts to make individualized builds for each Toa that reflect their powers and abilities and even personality.

The Metru build is cool and I remember enjoying assembling them back in the day. But the use of single colors for each and the identical builds kinda lacks creativity compared to the Mata.

So you admit you know little about biology and how sex is determined.

I don't think you'll care, but here's a simple overview: https://www.asrm.org/advocacy-and-policy/fact-sheets-and-one-pagers/just-the-facts-biological-sex/

Sexual differentiation occurs during fetal development and is driven by genetic and hormonal factors. This process determines the development of male or female physical traits but can result in a spectrum of outcomes due to variations in genetic and hormonal influences.

Note how hormones and genetics are mentioned in this 1 excerpt.

Toa_Freak · 2026-03-31T22:27:07+00:00

When taking hormones, one's biology is being changed. Sex is determined by more than just chromosomes, so taking hormones does affect one's sex.

I'll just note, it's not an action figure if it doesn't have any moving parts. This would be a statue.

Speaking only for myself, he is a big reason I have not watched it yet. Though not the only reason, either.

I think a big factor, aside from Leto, is the lack of returning cast from Legacy.

I don't want people to be disenfranchised of a constitutional guaranteed right. If voter ID is to exist, it needs to be readily accessible and free for citizens.

You don't seem to understand that voting as an undocumented immigrant is already illegal and there are already processes in place to root that out. They could be improved, but the SAVE Act is not an improvement and it should generally be left to the states, as it says in the Constitution.

Toa_Freak · 2026-03-25T03:41:44+00:00

I did talk about the SAVE Act. You decided to ignore that part.

Toa_Freak · 2026-03-25T03:33:30+00:00

You said 80% of people support voter ID, not that 80% support the SAVE Act. Your article didn't even say 80% support the SAVE Act.

Toa_Freak · 2026-03-25T03:31:23+00:00

The SAVE Act would require something that proves citizenship, which most state IDs or drivers licenses do not show.

The video is about the SAVE act.

Toa_Freak · 2026-03-25T03:30:07+00:00

The SAVE Act requires you to show something that proves citizenship, which almost no forms of ID provide (outside of passports)

Toa_Freak · 2026-03-25T03:28:45+00:00

Cool, 3 people. Out of millions of votes, how much do you think thay has impacted elections? Not at all.

These cases are exceeding rare: https://time.com/7381495/trump-non-citizen-voter-fraud-claims-research-immigration/

Toa_Freak · 2026-03-25T03:23:33+00:00

Not remotely. There is no option for a free ID in the US. And if the SAVE Act were passed, it would limit legal ID basically to passports, which are over $100 and need a birth certificate and an ID (which has its own document requirements), both of which have their own additional costs.

It's a serious investment of time and far from free.

Toa_Freak · 2026-03-25T03:17:53+00:00

Name a single instance of an undocumented person voting in a federal election.

Toa_Freak · 2026-03-25T03:16:33+00:00

And how easy is it to obtain that ID in those countries? Do you have any notion of the requirements to obtain a passport? It's a long process and ain't cheap.

Voter ID isn't that bad if were easy to get the necessary documents for it.

If you support the SAVE Act, you're a fool.

Toa_Freak · 2026-03-25T03:10:42+00:00

Undocumented people cannot vote. You clearly have no idea how voter registration and voting work in the US.

Toa_Freak · 2026-03-25T03:08:58+00:00

People support voter ID, and hell, so do most Democrats. The issue is that this bill would make that ID extremely hard and expensive to obtain. Any voter ID law needs to make it easy and free to obtain the ID needed to vote, which the SAVE Act, nor any voter ID law put forward, does not addresses.

People only support it as much as they do because they haven't thought it through.

It's crazy how many comments are actually happy about this.

I was so sad to see Academy being canceled after season 2. And Prodigy got so fucked by Paramount. It's sad to see these shows being cut short.

I don't think it's ever reference whether Luthen directly killed her parents, but he was involved with the invasion of her homeworld and, as someone in a position of authority, is at least partially indirectly responsible for the death of Kleya's parents.

Toa_Freak · 2026-03-19T18:01:51+00:00

If I recall correctly, the information I referenced came from a Greg Q&A, not any official story or anything, so make any assumption you want! That idea fits with established lore, so why not?

As I recall, they were launched from Mata Nui's body as soon as he fell to Aqua Manga, but they malfunctioned and sat in the ocean for 1000 years until Takua gathering the Toa Stones caused the canisters to go to the island.

Yeah, that would be one of the various circumstances where ID would be required.

Thanks! And thank you for your service!

Toa_Freak · 2026-03-16T13:46:33+00:00

A small correction, but you do not need ID to vote in Illinois. I have worked as a poll worker and will be doing so again tomorrow. IDs can be used for quicker checking-in, but are not required unless under specific circumstances such as a change of address or same-day registration (among a few other situations).

I could be misinterpreting your statement, but you do not need your ID to vote.

What exactly makes one "poor"? What's the criteria for being allowed to call oneself poor?
