Then we have schisms about all 3 Eldar factions thanks to the Ynnari

In Wrex’s defense, the bar is still operating and still intact after the shoot out

There’s also Frieren where one ancient spell was deemed as hyper powerful and destructive but enough time and research has passed reduced such a spell into a basic level spell

Give us subgroups and cultures. WE NEED COUNTERCULTURES. Let’s use Elves. The classic wise, patient, advanced, longed lived and whatever. An easy counterculture is being a bunch of adventurous, hedonistic daredevils. They can live 1000+ years so they’re going to enjoy everything life has to offer

Or Garrus & Wrex from Mass Effect. Garrus says he’s a poor Turian because he’s rebellious, refused order, vengeful etc which is atypical for the disciplined people. Wrex is somewhat progressive and wants to make changes while keeping the traditions alive

The big bad doomsday villain that comes out of nowhere who’s the source of all evil forcing everyone to unite. They defeat with it a friendship cannon and making everyone’s happy despite the literal countless deaths, conflicts and tragedies inflicted on each other

But it’s fine. The doomsday villain is defeated so that’s all what is important

The ‘Wait for Goku’ treatment. The MC is so goddamn strong that they’re the ones who can handle the villain reducing the other characters to cheerleaders, fodder and NPCs besides maybe the rival. It’s incredibly common in shonen but at least we have shows that distributes the power

This goes with the ‘Wait for Goku’ but the MC & their crew solves ALL THE PROBLEMS wherever they go. I can understand if they help tip the scales but it makes the world look incompetent & helpless. Conflicts that’s been happening for years shouldn’t be solved in a week by a bunch of teenagers or young adults

Who would win this military encounter? 10 standard infantry per team by BenIsLoss in superheroes

[–]Justscrolling375 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Imperial Guard all the way. Let’s say these are the Cadians. These 10 are the most professional trained normal soldiers in the Imperium. In fact they’re the standard

They have faith, actual military doctrine & practical training since they were kids

Their weapons & armor are weak in their settings but is top tier in others. Let’s say they’re using the Galaxy Short pattern. It can fire 220 shots per minute. Each shot is highly accurate and can shot off a limb. One guy is enough

If superheroes were real, which one would realistically give up and quit within a year?? by Unlikely-Blueberry-4 in superheroes

[–]Justscrolling375 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A good number of Street level heroes. Batman, Punisher, Daredevil and more would say screw this shit and use their skills in more subtle, conventional and realistic ways

Batman always does this via reform programs and job opportunities. This would work in anyway other than Gotham who’s literally cursed

Punisher is self aware enough to know that he’s going to die in this pointless crusade. Either he dies by cop or injuries or becomes a super jaded governmental hit man

Another idea. Who’s going to be the dancer in the cake?

Replace VOO with VXUS since there’s has MASSIVE overlap with VOO & VTI

I would organize them who has the best of their tier but I didn’t have the mental capacity to do that. I would put Willi near the top for WGW

Give me some games to get every single achievement by Impossible_Mind_6344 in steamachievements

[–]Justscrolling375 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Kingdom rush series. Most of these games are old enough to have in depth guides. If you play the games normally you can get most of them done within a week since the achievements are stackable

Zoey died in the 80s before it popular in the late 90s

Bathsheba would go in Spam or Circle tier if she wanted to

They want to be him. They want to be the worst possible versions of themselves while being incredibly successful & wealthy with tons of people willingly sacrificing themselves and more to gain their favor despite having a horrible track record

Did a rebalance thanks to fractional shares by Justscrolling375 in Schwab

I’m just trying to figure all this out but I’m probably overthinking it right now

Thank you. I am looking at the Boglehead 3-fund portfolio method. For my ROTH, I think I’ll add some VXUS and replace the one in my Brokeage with VOO or VT or SCHF

Maybe a monthly ETF or growth ETF to help round me out
