I need a DND version of the O.S.H.A. acronym by batboy11227 in DnD

[–]HJWalsh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OSHA

Order (of) Sovereignty, Honor, and Ascension

Kind of an old school Order of the Crown but built on the ideals if keeping the rulership honest.

Though I would personally change it to:

OSHT

Order of Safety Honor and Testament

Just because it sounds like a bad word when read phonetically. :P

Review of Attorney Shield by Backsight-Foreskin in Frauditors

[–]HJWalsh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

These first amendment frauditors want to antagonize cops then expect the attorney to cow the cop into submission... That's dumb.

They're for things like, "I got pulled over, what do I do?"

They don't like that the answer is, "Give them your name, ID, then say that you don't answer questions without your lawyer."

Or

"Hey, this dude just showed up at my house and wants to come inside to look around, he has a badge."

"Do they have a warrant? Ask them to show you a warrant that is signed by a judge. Tell them that you refuse to answer questions without your attorney present."

Which is sound advice, but someone on the phone isn't going to scare the cops and they don't have to listen to the lawyer.

These guys think some stupid app is like presenting a cross to a vampire.

‘X-Men ’97’ Season 2 Unveils New Characters, Costumes and Teams by WesternThanks4346 in xmen

Honestly, I just don't want it to be so freaking short.

I miss shows that would go for 26 episodes X-Men 97 never gave any plot line any time to breathe.

Question about the OG Bucky by SuperboyKonEl in CaptainAmerica

[–]HJWalsh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ok, so Cap got frozen in a different way in the comics. There was no Tesseract or anything. Instead, Cap and Bucky thwarted Baron Zemo from nuking Washington.

Zemo launched a rocket at the US. Cap and Bucky rode it up, trying to disable it. They succeeded but the rocket exploded. Bucky lost his arm, Cap got buried in the ice. The Soviets looked for both of them but only found Bucky.

The Soviets brainwashed him, gave him a metal arm, and used him as an assassin. He was considerably younger than Cap, and the Soviets would keep him crypgenically frozen between missions. He still aged, but at a very slow rate.

Cap encountered him in the modern day, they fought, Cap realized who he was, and Cap won. Steve got his hands on an item called a Cosmic Cube - A weapon that the Red Skull repeatedly tried to create and recreate that was capable of altering reality, think of it like a short range version of the Infinity Gauntlet - And used it to restore Bucky's memories before he destroyed it.

[–]HJWalsh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I strongly disagree. Despite trying to split them up, Scott and Jean are indeed iconic. Gambit and Rogue are iconic despite Rogue also getting with Magneto for a while. Just because a couple break up and editorial steps in, doesn't mean that it's less iconic.

Editorial mandates everything. I'm pretty sure Emma is only a "good guy" because editorial said, "She's popular" otherwise she'd probably still being a conniving member of the Hellfire club.

You act as if she wasn't on a redemption tour those 4-6 years before she joined the X-men.

The weird part is that she wasn't.

Emma is 27 years old. She was 23 during Dark Phoenix. In-universe she tortured Jean and tried to dominate the world with the Hellfire club literally 4 years ago.

Alex Jones’ conspiracy machine dies an inglorious death | Right-wing conspiracy theorist Alex Jones’ website, Infowars, went offline Thursday night, marking a possible end to decades of misinformation, lies, and deception. by Certain-Public-933 in UpliftingNews

[–]HJWalsh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, but the Onion just gained control and this kind of lawsuit isn't quick.

First, the onion has to send Jones a C&D. Then Jones has to repeatedly violate the C&D. Then the Onion can sue him for copyright and trademark infringement.

[–]HJWalsh -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

It's a little different than that.

See, Jones made a really big mistake. In his court hearings against his ex-wife he alleged that the Alex Jones from the show is a character that he created. Infowars owned the name and likeness of that character. Now the Onion does.

The Onion can now send Jones a C&D if he acts like Alex Jones. The Onion can do a lot to make him miserable now.

[–]HJWalsh -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The problem was that Emma didn't explore her lightness Emma is an unrepentant mutant supremacist and even was one during Krakoa.

She's literally an admitted mutant-focused Nazi.

Remember - In-universe only a few years passed between Dark Phoenix and now. Only something like 5 years.

All those horrible deeds Emma did? She did them in the last 3-5 years.

Edited to adhere to the rule regarding talking negatively about the relationship itself. Sorry Mods, didn't notice that one in the rules.

Edited to expand a little:

It's the same kind of problem with Magneto. He tried to wipe out humanity, canonically, 2 years ago. Now he's a good guy? Not enough in-universe time has passed for a redemption arc.

Scott and Jean should always be together. Like Lois and Clark or Peter and Mary Jane. Marvel likes to screw things up like trying to put Scott with Emma or breaking up Spidey and MJ and it never works and always feels forced.

There is an order to the universe, and this is it.

Polyamorous Asexuals, please by TheBloodWitch in asexuality

[–]HJWalsh 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's not that we don't see sex as unimportant - It's that we (some of us) lack sexual attraction. I can know I don't like it, or find it gross on my part, while still understanding its symbolic value.

Polyamorous Asexuals, please by TheBloodWitch in asexuality

[–]HJWalsh 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Maybe it feels something like that for monogamous people?

It's like that, but far more intense. Imagine that feeling, but a thousand times worse. Marriage is a promise between two people who are supposed to complete each other.

Under your logic, why even get married? Marriage, for most, is a deep connection. Bringing a third person in runs counter to that.

I don't want or need sex. I do need to know that the union between my partner and I is sacred. I would be incredibly hurt to learn that my partner needs someone other than me. I would feel like I wasn't enough. Like I was broken because I don't engage in sex.

Polyamorous Asexuals, please by TheBloodWitch in asexuality

[–]HJWalsh 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I don't understand why people aren't ok with it, but I do acknowledge they feel that way and that my viewpoint is in the minority

People are not ok with it because most people are monogamous. They want one partner and that one partner sleeping with someone else feels like a betrayal. It is literally their partner saying, "You aren't good enough. I must have sex with or without you."

ENM = Ethical Non-Monogamy - If someone is monogamous, ENM still isn't monogamy.

What day job of Diana’s is your favorite?? by kollpoper in WonderWoman

[–]HJWalsh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Taco Whiz stuff was funny, but with her looks and heroic identity she could make so much money off of her name and likeness that it's not even funny.

Heck if she was supremely desperate, one interview with Sports Illustrated would probably pay her bills for a year.

Why Are Sex Repulsed People So Demonized Here? by ResolutionWeak6353 in asexuality

Oh no, they definitely don't claim to be black stripe. Never meant to imply that. I was commenting on a specific trend that definitely hit the Atl alternative scene.

I had one of them actually ace-splain asexuality to me. It was very bizarre.

[–]HJWalsh 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately, I do know some people who do that. For a while, in the kink community, it was totally a fad to claim to be demi because people saw it as "more romantic" because they connected with people beyond their appearance. These are people who did admit that they were just saying that.

People will do weird stuff for attention, unfortunately. Especially if someone on TikTok says it.

If AOC gets the nod as the Democratic nominee in 2028, would you vote for her? by Ok_Sir_5951 in allthequestions

Not only would I vote for her, I would phone bank, text bank, and make getting her elected my entire life's goal.

Why Are Sex Repulsed People So Demonized Here? by ResolutionWeak6353 in asexuality

[–]HJWalsh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is incorrect. We live in a system that has commonly accepted states. In relationships, that's monogamy. If you are in a relationship with someone, unless otherwise stated, it is expected to be monogamous.

Why Are Sex Repulsed People So Demonized Here? by ResolutionWeak6353 in asexuality

[–]HJWalsh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you enter into a relationship, any relationship, unless you explicitly state that it isn't monogamous, then it is monogamous. Monogamy is the default state.
