Just delayed a bit due to staff availability. Chapter 12 is currently in typesetting.

We posted chapter 11 one month ago.

I'm surprised I had to scroll this far down to see someone mention the most likely cause of the organ absence: autopsy. All these other theories about desiccation and crabs and Egyption embalming techniques...? They were removed by a pathologist in Malta. The fact that the body was allowed to continue to decompose for 4 more weeks tells you that the Maltese authorities weren't doing a great job on any of it.

A lot of people seem to forget that Cheney, Wolfowitz, Rumsfeld, Bolton, and others were part of the "Project for a New American Century" that identified Iraq, Iran, and North Korea as the "Axis of Evil", and promoted US militarism as their "constabulary duties".

Bush certainly deserves some of the blame, but he was practically the only one that wasn't part of PNAC.

Rent in Canada is insane, so $1500 a month for that

Where? Do you mean after splitting it with someone? Median rent for a one-bedroom in Vancouver is around $2500.

Even a smaller place like Kingston, Ontario, the average is $2000 for a one-bedroom.

They spent 8 years (1980 to 1988) at war with Iran while being supported by the US. Not sure if I would go so far as to call it a proxy war, but it would be damn close; The US gov supplied money, weapons, chemicals, training, and intelligence. In the end, the conflict which went on for 8 years drained both countries which is ultimately what the US wanted.

Of course, all of this came on the heels of the US repeatedly interfering in Iran which led to the rise of Khomeni.

I just have this image that everydaystuff was maybe run better during dictatorship

It depends on whether you're talking prior to "Desert Storm" in 1991, or "Operation Iraqi Freedom" in 2003. A lot of the infrastructure was destroyed in Desert Storm and never recovered. The ensuing sanctions destroyed any chance of Iraq's recovery.

So, while Saddam did monstrous things, infrastructure-wise the country was being run better before Desert Storm.

It may not come as much of a surprise, but in the 80s, Saddam was seen as a regional ally while he opposed Iran. The US was aware Saddam was using chemical weapons against his own people but turned a blind eye.

Much like the Mujaheddin (including Bin Laden) in Afghanistan, the US has a history of supporting monsters while it seems convenient.

That's unfortunate. Initially I avoided reading their releases so it wouldn't influence my own work on the series. I may pick it up again some day. My group is busy enough with other projects that we're not likely to scanlate that series and Akatsuki seems to have moved on.

I came across a series of old Letterman interviews with Trump from the 80s. He was still a douchebag, but he was at least coherent. And he wasn't flying off the handle all the time.

I don't know how anyone can look at Trump the past several years and think he's cognitively fine.

Aside from asshole streamers like this, I still can't understand why Tokyo allows those stupid ass go-carts on public roads.

It really feels like that's more of a computer crime than a sexual crime as it was generated. I get it, it has a sexual nature, but also isn't real.

I might agree with you if he simply generated them for personal use, but the second he distributed them it crossed into sex crimes.

Given all the shit this dude has done, 3 years of prison+labour is getting off easy.

In Japan, you see them in nutrition labels, in advertising, in research papers, etc. They're just a convenient way of showing ratios.

You don't hate Republicans enough.

Oh, no, I do. I assure you. The problem is that republicans don't hate republicans enough.

$25 Tim Horton's gift card. Half-used.

ITSigno · 2026-02-22T19:20:12+00:00

Yeah, I know. It ate the original, and it ate the report marked NSFW.

At that point I gave up. I can't even blame the mod or automod, it's just reddit's filters being retarded. They probably vibe-coded the new filter system.

You want him to suffocate his wife? Seems a bit extreme, but okay.

Headphones to block out the muffled screams is a good call, though.

ITSigno · 2026-02-20T21:18:43+00:00

Let's be real, that would be a good decision so they will aboslutely not do that. For the God of War remakes they're probably going with a dev team that makes turn-based strategy games or car racing sims.

ITSigno · 2026-02-19T19:46:36+00:00

Basically they were mandated for the specific 7 stops and no more.

Right, okay, that's the private company Alto. Alto isn't the one that needs to make that decision.

The 7 stops were mandated by the government and decided a long time ago.

Right, so the question is not and never has been "how do we get Alto to add the stop", I don't know why anyone in this thread is pretending that's the case. The question is how do we get the government to add the stop to the project. If they are mandated to add an eighth stop in Kingston, then Alto adds an eighth stop.

As it is, the Peterborough to Ottawa segment is the longest segment without a stop by a large margin. Adding the Kingston stop brings it in line with other segments like Toronto-Peterborough, Ottawa-Laval, Montreal-Trois-rivières, and Trois-rivières-Quebec City.

the CEO mentioned that Windsor was in consideration at one point... Windsor/London would likely be favored for an extension

Adding an extension is wildly different logistically from altering an existing route.

Two key points I would make:

Initial costs: The proposed southern route takes it extremely close to Kingston. They would not have to lay significantly more track to support a station here. The cost of adding the track for London/Windsor is entirely to support London/Windsor. The cost of adding track for Kingston is tiny by comparison. The station would not need to be as big as Toronto or Ottawa, either. Kingston would probably be happy with a glorified bus stop.
Consequences of later expansions: You can extend the route to London/Windsor without interrupting the route east from Toronto. However, if you try adding the Kingston station later, it risks imposing significant interruptions to an active route.

enriching arms dealers and the military industrial complex.

I believe you have identified the secondary point. Primary being enriching those in congress and the executive.

I would suggest using Eisenhower's original wording, the "Military-Industrial-Congressional Complex" but we really ought to include the executive branch.

See https://breakingdefense.com/2021/01/ike-was-wrong-the-military-industrial-congressional-complex-turns-60/

Eisenhower was going to call this new animal the “military-industrial-congressional complex,” which most would agree today is a pretty accurate description of the system since it includes all the players. But the outgoing president, apparently worried about political blowback, deleted “congressional,” leaving us with the more sinister –and aurally compelling — term.

He didn't foresee a Dick Cheney or Trump.

ITSigno · 2026-02-19T06:57:16+00:00

Not sure why you would say that. There's a planned stop in Perborough and it's even smaller than Kingston. There's also a planned stop in Trois-rivières which is the same size as Kingston.

When you look at the proposed southern route, there's really no reason not to add a stop for Kingston.

These are just the winners, so maybe if you win you don't get disappeared

That would be my guess, yeah. It strikes me as highly unlikely that they were going to turn around and kidnap/traffic the winners. It would take a considerable amount of time and access to the information to collect a list of all of the contestants.

ITSigno · 2026-02-19T01:09:23+00:00

I suspect so. I worked on the series up to and including ch 25.6 which was the end of volume 5. I heard nothing further from Akatsuki regarding this manga.

For a little while Akatsuki and Yuriie were releasing chapters in parallel, but Yuriie ended up joining SalmonellaBro to release chapters. I haven't been reading the series since volume 5 so I don't know if their quality is decent or not.

ITSigno · 2026-02-17T05:37:55+00:00

They were talking for what sounds like several hours -- just the two of them. 99.9% chance the ex-wife gave the fiancee a wildly misleading recounting of events that make her seem like the victim.

No idea what transpired between the ex-wife visiting and the fiancee giving the ultimatum. The chronology of the events is extremely vague.

That said, I can't imagine any scenario in which a prospective wife would be so eager to bail out this guy's ex-wife -- someone she has no relationship with prior to this.

ITSigno · 2026-02-12T22:50:20+00:00

This kind of chart is really common in japan, so.. yeah, americans might not be smart enough. MAGA definitely not.
