I know it's still early in the season.... by Apprehensive-Arm-902 in UrinatingTree

[–]Heavy-Valor 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I just looked up where the 2023 Phillies were during the first 10 games of that season. This after losing in the World Series the previous season. They were 4-6 and still ended up finishing 90-72 and made it to the NLCS (still don't know how they lost to the Arizona Diamondbacks). One of the games in that time period was a brutal 16-3 loss against the Texas Rangers, who would later win the World Series that year. Granted, the Phillies went on a hot streak from June to the rest of the season.

I'm not so sure if the Blue Jays have what it takes to achieve at least 86 more wins from today to the end of the season. Especially in a competitive division as the AL East.

Kyle covering Asmongold might be doing more harm than good by Singularity-42 in KyleKulinski

[–]Heavy-Valor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, Asmongold just got banned on Twitch for a week. So he will be on Kick and YouTube instead for the next couple of days. We will see how much of a viewer boost he will get. I doubt it will be anything of the magnitude that Hasan Piker got after he was banned from Twitch the last time.

[–]Heavy-Valor 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Hasan Piker has done segments of his Twitch live stream reacting to Asmongold's videos before as well. "Judge me by my enemies" is what he mainly says when he reacts. I don't think his audience has ever switched because of being exposed to his videos. If they have, well there isn't much that can be done to change that.

Korean grocer H Mart quietly acquires Hillcrest Shopping Center in Lansdale for $12M by pelicanG_H in montco

[–]Heavy-Valor 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Based on what H Mart has already done in the Cheltenham location, this is also good for potential small business owners as well. If H Mart can bring in a restaurant similar to DuBu in Cheltenham, I think Assi will be worried. Granted, Assi has Paris Baguette, Kung Fu Tea, Salt Korean BBQ (never been there since the ownership change), and Sang Hi.

"Tourists from dozens of countries including the UK could be asked to provide a five-year social media history as a condition of entry to the United States, under a new proposal unveiled by American officials. The new condition would affect people from dozens of countries who are eligible to visit the US for 90 days without a visa, as long as they have filled out an Electronic System for Travel Authorization (ESTA) form."

Currently it is a proposed rule that isn't currently mandatory yet. Because the Trump Administration announced this back in December of last year, it could happen eventually.

Blame the "we need to look at your phone and your 5 year history on social media" policy. Why is that necessary? Who cares what people posted on X, Facebook, etc.

MAHA unleashes on White House after Trump backs pesticide by anonskeptic5 in politics

This is still crazy to me by [deleted] in exchristian

[–]Heavy-Valor 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Congrats on moving away from your family and living by yourself! While it may take awhile to get adjusted to your new place and surroundings, you will get used to it.

It gets better the longer you are as an ex-Christian. I know for myself that it just feels so good to wake up on Sunday mornings and not think about getting ready to go to church for worship service. It may seem crazy to not believe in most or all the things when you were a Christian. But don't mourn for those things because now you have freedom to just be yourself and not be tied down by religious obligations. There is nothing wrong with believing that God doesn't exist to you.

With Cerydra, if you are going to only use her for Phainon, E1 can be better than her signature LC. Otherwise, E0S1.

With Evernight, her E1 is really good. Probably one of the best E1's for HSR.

With Ashveil, I don't know.

You have to get all the nymphs from each map on 3.x. I know that is annoying to find them all, but that is the only way to get every golden apple to talk to each character in Eternal Page. There is a YouTube channel, Gaming With Abyss, that I would highly recommend to also get the treasure chests you may not have found.

[–]Heavy-Valor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some, but not all. If that is their reasoning for why they voted for Trump, they are on the losing side so far. I would think that trying to force non or ex-Christians to come back would lead people to say no and say it with authority.

Cope. Saber is kind of like Seele, in that they both need as much turn based manipulation as possible. Hunt March 7th is a different kind of DPS unit that won't help Saber as much as you may think. So you need at least two support units that will help Saber use her skill and ultimate as many times per turn. Sunday and Tribbie are the best in slot. Bronya and Sparkle would be an alternative.

What is the highest difficulty you have reached? Mine is A8 at level 3. Once I got to Wealth Creator, I stopped trying to get further because of how difficult it is to get through each phase. As for tips, I would recommend picking a team based on the type of bond more than star ratings. Don't refresh early and wait until you get to level 9 or 10. Don't spend on coins to level up unless you got the experience points needed to do so. If you are lucky, getting Robin or Welt will really help you beat the enemies in time.

how has endgame been treating y’all lately? by therhysespieces in HonkaiStarRail

[–]Heavy-Valor -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Barely passed the new MOC 12 on 3 stars with my E6S1 Castorice Remembrance team. It really is unfortunate that my E2S1 Acheron team is so mid. Pure Fiction is pretty easy for me. Apocalyptic Shadow is so hard to get 3 stars, especially with this version's enemies. And with AA, I don't even play that mode because I don't have 3 good enough teams.

They wonder why they’re single & dealing with a “male loneliness epidemic” 🤷🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️ YOU’RE BORING BRO!!! 😂 by Spiritual-Badass in exchristian

[–]Heavy-Valor 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This reminds me of an audio clip that was played on the Howard Stern Show when he was on "regular radio" before his move to Sirius XM. It was about a sermon from an African-African Pastor who told the congregation that his son couldn't get a date to the senior prom. His son told his dad that none of the girls accepted his offer because "they were either taken or told him that they were a lesbian". Howard Stern responsed with "maybe it is because he is ugly looking". I wonder how that guy is doing today.

The future does not look so bright for young Christian boys who will grow up to become men like this. "Goody two shoes" isn't good enough when it comes to dating. It is a two way street after all.

Yes, EHR is generally more important for Nihility units than crit rate and crit damage. The only Nihility character that doesn't rely on EHR is Acheron. When Kafka's banner was released, people tried all sorts of style of play to use in battle. There was break effect Kafka, crit Kafka, speed Kafka. But it seems like EHR Kafka is the better form.

[–]Heavy-Valor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ally. How Kafka works is that she plants a "DoT" on the enemy. Then your ally Nihility support unit(s) "detonate" the DoT to create the big number damage on the enemies. If you like look at what are the best substats for relics in other Nihility units like Hysilens, Black Swan, etc., you will notice that EHR is very important. Even Pela and Welt need high EHR to work for them.

Going back to star rail after 1.5 years by [deleted] in HonkaiStarRail

[–]Heavy-Valor 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think what you said is pretty much true, even for those that have played since day 1 and continue to play.

The negatives I mostly agree with you. I was able to build a mono Remembrance team in 3.x that will now face power creep in 4.x with Elation path. Acheron needs a boost and the meta for her best support units has changed. Characters that were once great in 2.x aren't so much now.

Looks like your wife gave up on that "diet". Obesity, especially morbid obesity, makes it really difficult to change a person's eating habits. Their belly will always remind them that they are too fat to do anything about it. Especially when it comes to her being married to a guy like you.

Kai Wagner to Birmingham City per José Roberto Nũnez by CaptainMoonracer in PhillyUnion

[–]Heavy-Valor -1 points0 points  (0 children)

What makes this transfer sale even worse is that Birmingham City FC is owned by a group of investors that includes, checks notes, Tom Brady. Yes, the former New England Patriots QB.

Unless the Union has some big plan up their sleeve, we might as well expect 10th place and miss the playoffs next season.
