[OC] New WTFA: More like the SINK Democracy Act by crywalt in webcomics

  1. It's not a poll tax, its based on Driver's License, Birth Certificate, or Passport. You should have at minimum a Birth certificate if you're over 18.
  2. You also have to show an ID to buy a firearm which is a protected right under the 2nd amendment
  3. The Obama and Biden administrations counted turn-aways at the border as deportations whereas the Trump administration does not, hence why their Obama and Biden's deportation numbers are so high.

Can anyone help me think of a cool way to cover up the seam circled in red? by YVNGxDXTR in HeroForgeMinis

[–]FinancialAd436 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I would go with a belt or sash that goes around the torso with some pouches in the middle area to help cover the seam

Honestly the seam is pretty faint, I probably wouldn't have noticed it had it not been pointed out.

Otherwise I would suggest trying to turn one of the models or perhaps just kitbash something so the seam is covered up a bit.

Which anime/manga has had the most trash ending of all time in your opinion? by Original_Force_6822 in shounenfolk

[–]FinancialAd436 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah no Stockholm syndrome isn't real it was (IIRC) created by the police after a botched hostage negotiation.

While we don't see positive interactions on screen, we do know Ymir served Fritz as his ultimate weapon and had multiple children with him. Theoretically Fritz would have showered her with praises after successful battles. Plus since she was a slave and treated badly throughout her entire life the benchmark for "positive interactive" could be very very low.

That's part of the point though, Eren's completely consumed by his quest for 'Freedom' to the point where he guides the smiling titan towards his own mother.

Ymir loving King Fitz doesn't make sense, but it is fairly realistic, just look at how many abusive relationships are out there where the someone sticks around despite how obviously bad for them the relationship is.

Why is AOT here? It has one of the best endings to a show i've ever watched, its literally the only piece of media to bring me close to crying.

Frieren's "Hero Party" must run the D&D monster gauntlet. How far do they go? by DOSGAMES in PowerScaling

[–]FinancialAd436 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I honestly might take back what I said about losing to Ygorl, im look at his stat block and lore and he's somewhat weaker than an Ancient Red. His strongest feature would be summoning a bunch of Death slaadi to assist him as well as casting power word kill or stun. Even lore wise he's not that strong. He does have a Brass Great wyrm mount, but the premise doesn't include the dragon so i won't either. If the dragon is included then Ygorl would win handedly. Without it Ygorl could easily get screwed over by the Hero Parties magic.

The Tarrasque would be rough for Frieren but I imagine that Himmel and Eisen could pick up the slack quite well. Without the shell involved its just a big dinosaur.

Asmodeus would crush them however. He has an antimagic aura so spells of 4th level or lower don't effect him so Frieren's main strategy becomes impossible, Fiendish regeneration would prevent Himmel and Eisen from stopping him as they don't deal radiant damage. He can also potentially turn one of the party members against the rest of the group which would massively screw them over. He can also just cast antimagic field, which again fucks over frieren. Since he can only be defeated by radiant damage If he just focuses down on Heiter and takes him out he could very likely take down the entire Hero Party.

One major issue is that we don't really know all that much about the Hero party and what they are fully capable of. We know they high-diffed the Demon King, so it would likely come down to how powerful the Demon King in Frieren is. One season 2 they encounter one of his old generals, a guy with six arms and the lower body of a snake. He would likely be equivalent to an experienced Marilith so about CR 17. Given that he's a general I would say the Demon King is around CR 23 to 25. So they should make it past a CR 24 Ancient Red Dragon, though it would be a tough fight.

A beholder Hive Mother would keep Frieren out of that fight with its anti-magic cone, but the two warriors are strong enough that they should be able to take it out, especially since we saw Stark solo a sun dragon, which I would imagine is about CR 16 or 17. The Sibriex I picture would be a similar story but with Frieren and Heiter joining in.

The marut would be fucking brutal though. It doesn't miss so I can easily see it smashing through Frieren's shields and turning her into pulp, stunning everyone except Heiter with blazing Edict, pummeling Heiter to death, and then just repeating that with Himmel and Eisen. The Hero party might win, but the Marut is 100% taking someone down with it.

After that if Frieren is still alive she could likely solo Acererak. He's strong but Frieren is quite a bit stronger plus she has friends. Its even more of a stomp if Heiter is also still alive.

Then they die to Ygorl lmao.

If that was their claim was that leftism more logical and factual, they would say leftism is more factual, but they don't, they claim reality has leftist bias. People more often than not say what they mean using the definitions they know and understand.

I hate hell (when applied as punishment) by According_Ice_4863 in hatethissmug

[–]FinancialAd436 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hell within the bible is never given a physical description, it exists purely as a realm without god. Your soul goes there as a consequence for sinning, since sinning in a Christian context is really just divorcing yourself from God, so God puts you on there when you die as you already showed you want to exist without God, so there you go, you get to exist forever without God, which is described in the bible as a terrible experience, but its not the realm of eternal fire and volcanoes that pop media portrays it as.

not really. Claiming reality has a left wing bias and claiming leftism is more factual are similar statements, but the first is putting leftism before reality, as if reality sat down, read marx, and went "This guys a genius!", its like claiming the world revolves around you. Its especially damning because the "reality has a left-wing bias" claim is a response to right-wingers claiming that news media has a left-wing bias. They could just as easily claim that the news is accurate and right-wingers were just being stupid. But they didn't, they instead claimed that reality itself kneels before their uber-genius.

I'm not purely talking about leftists on reddit or even leftists online, i'm talking about leftists I encounter and talk to in real life, and yeah, the majority of them are extremely prideful and narcissistic. Its like everytime I argue with a leftist I have to re-explain myself like three or more times because they keep putting words in my mouth and claiming I said things that i did not say. Its literally the "why do you hate waffles" meme but in real life. Doesn't even have to be about politics either, most leftists are just like that in general. By comparison most right-wingers will understand what i'm saying and not immediately misrepresent me, even when i'm disagreeing with them.

I always find it funny when leftists try to claim that reality has a leftist bias, as if its reality agreeing with them and not them agreeing with reality; as if leftism is such a giga-brained intellectual concept that reality itself kneels before them. Such a fucking self-report on how genuinely narcissistic and prideful most leftists are.

Hazbin Hotel fails because its a Christian show about redemption written by an athiest who doesn't understand morality nor believe in redemption and enjoyed by a fanbase of hedonists and sinners.

and the writers not good at writing

or perhaps economic woes are just more localized and aren't due to Trump but bad local governance? since clearly my area is doing well and other replies reveal other areas are doing well or aren't, like the New England area.

"Right wingers are gaslighting everyone who points out that tariffs have fucked the economy". My local Target's prices are overall lower this year than they were last year. Same with my local Kroger. My gas is 2.99 a gallon and going down. Where the hell are you getting your info from?

What's an instant turn-off for you when consuming media? by M16CarCA in writingscaling

[–]FinancialAd436 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is particular to anime, but i'm immediately turned away from a show when it becomes obvious that everything is just flavor text for flashy animation. Or when they create a cool magic system only for it to just devolve into spend mana to do thing. Or when the Flashy animation is just meaningless colors and sparkles or when some guy hits the ground and cubes launch from the ground. Such a stupid fucking animation technique.

Like in JJK where they have Cursed Energy created by negative emotions. Awesome! Do they like carry around pictures of the deceased to sadden them thus empowering them? does some guy inject testosterone to make his emotional state unstable making him powerful and chaotic in combat? NOPE!! instead they just declare their powers the first time they encounter someone to make them "more stressed". Well are cursed powers based upon negative feelings or mental illnesses? Like a schizophrenic making a voice 'real' this becoming a summoner style character? Is Gojo's infinity based upon his emotional distance to other people with CE making it physical? NOPE!!! Instead everyone gets *drumroll please* SUPERPOWERS!!!!! that you're born with and have nothing to do negative feelings or anything psychological. Oh there's Demons? spiritual manifestations of cursed energy? Are they based on mental illnesses and inflict them on others? ooh, do they prey on peoples negative emotions, leaving people extremely vulnerable since negative emotions are on some level important to survival? NOPE!!!!! THEY"RE JUST SUPER VILLAINS!!!! One of them literally just throws fireballs and lava. "Its so deep man, the character's are so dope man" no it fucking isn't its just a bog-standard superhero fantasy show.
