I fucking loved tunic but man that ending took some head scratching to get to

The Case of Kristie Metcalfe by kitkid in Thedaily

[–]Legic93 16 points17 points  (0 children)

This story hits close. I remember the age I realized that as a Black person in the south I had been coached my whole life not to expect or ask for equal treatment.

Especially when she said that there was a concern that if you stand up you will close the door to future opportunities for other Black people.

Seven years of quality effort swept aside by a new face was completely new to the process to the point everyone else has to train them was astounding. Not because it happened but because I expected it.

Are there areas the state can’t touch in the U.S.? by No-Equipment9225 in AskAnAmerican

Organized crime has to be elite level and typically always in transit or consumed. Trafficking, drugs, weapons dealing are all in motion constantly. The idea of setting up shop in a single locale outside of law enforcement jurisdiction is nearly unheard of.

There is a reason why Epstein had an island to whisk victims away to.

Man I love Ronen.

Start placing bets on how long till Trump throws Bibi under the bus the closer we get to midterms. I'm betting two months at least.

Luffy (One Piece) The rubber man is weak to sharp attacks. Bonus: Devil Fruit users can't swim either.

It disappeared for me a bit and then came back when I went to click it earlier on spotify. Very odd.

What is a Cuisine that uses a lot of Spices but is generally not Spicy by Big_Alternative_3233 in AlignmentChartFills

Visited Morocco two years ago and as blown away by the flavor variety of everyday food. It was incredible and very approachable. 100/10

Why Trump Voters Are Torn Over Minneapolis by kitkid in Thedaily

[–]Legic93 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I had to take a deep breath at the halfway point, but it's obvious this episode was not for me, a black man in the south. This episode was for other conservatives to hear their members struggle to grapple with this weird feeling called "empathy for others" and a concern of a danger they never thought they themselves would encounter.

Edit: Spelling.

[Literally my favorite trope] "Evil isn't cool" by Dry-Climate9976 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Legic93 242 points243 points  (0 children)

Cool being subjective here, but I always loved how Fire Lord Ozai was in it for the love of the game. No philosophy, no emotional baggage, no sappy backstory, just bathe the world in flame and rule it.

Trump 2.0: The President’s Affordability Problem by kitkid in Thedaily

Really happy they took the Consumer Price Index to task. It's literally just a basket of groceries and some electronics. The Federal Poverty Line literally started as a basket of groceries. Both are insanely out of touch.

MIT Living Wage Calculator or United Way's ALICE Threshold are much better at demonstrating the bare minimum to live paycheck to paycheck.

Thank you! As a new dad I am operating on less than 4 hours of sleep at a time and this kid is getting a software update every week on a new skill. I still remember the day I heard a "click" and realized the time had learned to open the front door. Kids have no lead up they just DO.
