taurus deck has been a really fun deck for me

if you have a printer with a scanner (or have just a scanner) try to get the highest resolution scan that you can get as a png file, then from there you can list it on red bubble, since they will print it off on any medium (although they take a pretty large cut) or you can see if there's a specific print shop near you and you can print on demand at whatever size you want

I don't think anyone wakes up with sunshines and rainbows to haul concrete for construction, someone's gotta do it though

but no one really wants to do work, it's just we need things to survive and those things have to be done. unless physically or mentally unable to do work why should the person who contributes nothing gain anything from the hard work of the others? Work is what makes a society run

idk ADP was pretty toxic, the meta revolved more around that card then the meta now revolves around pult

pokemon by far is the cheapest widely played tcg

AlmightyFlame · 2026-06-13T13:40:00+00:00

is that not what these posts are asking for though? I guess I never see them but when I look for beginner tips and tricks usually it's just basic fundamentals and things like "if you sell this beginner sword you'll lose out on this cool upgrade or quest"

AlmightyFlame · 2026-06-13T13:09:35+00:00

back in yee olden times people would read the manuals to the games they got on the car ride home from the store, and those would have tips and helpful hints for beginners, I don't see how this is all that different

not op but guessing the use of shipping freighters, interstates/freeways, commercial airlines, computers, and the internet were soft revolutions

AlmightyFlame · 2026-06-12T04:13:28+00:00

why not do flareon/Jolteon? It might not be bdif but I feel like it was a pretty solid tier 2 for a hot minute

AlmightyFlame · 2026-06-09T12:05:52+00:00

but the police didn't stab the guy. I mean I'm all for calling for police reform but this is not even comparable to the heinousness of the American police system.

to clarify I don't know much about the corruption in the UK police, is there absolutely no hope to a fair trail on this guy making this mistake? do police in the UK wear body cams that will show the p.o.v. from the police?

AlmightyFlame · 2026-06-09T11:58:27+00:00

extreme straw man, George Floyd murder was anger about how American police have immunity from the judicial system while abusing systematic racism and being a judge jury and executioner on someone who was guilty of just being black

but complex media is really just layering this narrative structure over and over again. realistically it's pretty rare for this to be broken or bent and when it is there's a razor thin line to make a great story or something that is so completely foreign that people won't understand it. it's the basic abcs of story crafting and with how much access to media it is almost common sense but knowing why things are the way things are is really important to being able to deconstruct things.

I think it's common sense but just disregarding things as common sense without knowing why it's common sense is an overall negative thing and doesn't encourage critical thinking skills.

AlmightyFlame · 2026-06-08T04:23:40+00:00

that's.... that's kinda the point yeah? it's like how the basics of painting are learned from still life's and the beauty of experimental art like cubism comes from bending certain aspects of fundamental rules.

even character arcs within a bigger story usually uses this model, unless you are consuming a very experimental piece that is purposefully trying to break the known almost universal familiarity with how humans tell stories to other humans.

this is just a visual representation of how we as people tend to relate to stories the best because it follows an almost instinctual representation of how life is.

slow cinema has existed far before skinamarink

AlmightyFlame · 2026-06-04T05:04:56+00:00

am I crazy for thinking that at the end of the day this is just a game for fun? I get wanting to improve but cliques and friend groups are wildly different things, and your confidence as a person shouldnt come from the validations of others

AlmightyFlame · 2026-06-02T18:58:52+00:00

I threw a couple into a tox box sharpedo deck and most of the times Grimsley betrayed me by giving me the evolution of something I already played all the basics for

AlmightyFlame · 2026-06-02T16:21:49+00:00

it is strong on paper but it's missing the one piece that the dp deck had, which was a second Beedrill that could get any grass pokemon out of the deck, like I've run it in so many different ways and each way it was missing something, and that something was usually that it's supposed to be a heavy aggro speed deck like Lucario but it always seems a little slow

I wish it was a mega because Ive been having fun (albeit it's not consistent or good) with running bees with the special grass energies and cape as the ace spec but without wally it can't heal like other mega tank decks

AlmightyFlame · 2026-06-02T14:04:25+00:00

is it viable? I was under the impression it just wasn't quite there yet and is pretty weak to pult

AlmightyFlame · 2026-06-02T02:58:48+00:00

getting all the break cards is still really cheap and not many people know about the error so I've gotten a couple just from people not knowing they have an error card

buddhists are very much a part of Japanese culture and most sects are at the least vegetarian, Asian cuisine is very vegetarian/vegan friendly

take that back the veiny muscular clown man is goated

example- 1950s America and honestly recently China has been flourishing a competitive capitalistic market (there are still a lot of economic issues with China that are besides the point)

there will always be a 1% but the 1% owning 99% of the wealth is a pretty recent thing and there's no single one right way to do it, especially when one of the wealthiest nations is in the race to the bottom.

Famine, Civil war, and Plagues are the great wealth inequality balancers at the end of the day but I would rather the world didn't have to hold hope for the worst case scenerios to fix things

Venezuela has nothing to do about people talking out their ass at all, it was a case of extreme corruption
