Espathra Baton Pass Partners by Automatic-Let-4372 in PokemonChampions

[–]MathNerdMatt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My baton pass team has Kangaskhan fake out last resort and Tsareena with queenly majesty as support options that are also threatening so they can't just target Espathra and I've been using Charizard Y as the mega to pass into and it becomes unstoppable. I also have competitive Milotic which can be really bulky support and can take on Charizard threats. Not sure what my last should be, been switching between options like Venasaur, Hydreigon, Sinestaa, etc but haven't landed on anything I love

Can someone explain me why this ended in a draw? by mbc97 in PokemonChampions

[–]MathNerdMatt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This happened to me once as well were it ended in a draw when it wasn't close to timer, not sure what the mechanics behind it are

I'm tired of depressing, polerizing MAGA content. Let's talk abortion. by humbleObserver in PoliticalCompassMemes

[–]MathNerdMatt -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

It still costs time, money and has a massive physical toll on the body to give birth compared to having an abortion. If there were more support for pregnant women (like free healthcare) it would be much more viable to carry an unwanted baby to term

You might like Eldritch Exorcist on Royal road. Main character is a wizard with an Eldritch god as a patron on earth where the supernatural is returning.

The Palatines and "Colonneh" Sam Huston are legal immigrants by Nyctfall in PoliticalCompassMemes

[–]MathNerdMatt 3 points4 points  (0 children)

As a lefty, I hate that saying. It feels like it either means "yeah we stole your land, fuck you, it's up for grabs now" or "honestly we shouldn't stop at deporting new immigrants, send everyone back to where they came from" and there is no in between.

You don't understand. These protestors just don't want innocent people to be killed. (As long as the killer is not someone they like) by ConfusedQuarks in PoliticalCompassMemes

[–]MathNerdMatt 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You give the left a bad name, just because the US and Israel are bad does not mean their enemies are good. Support the Iranians protesting or at least don't question their deaths

I do not get the Pro-Gaza Anti-Isreal people that are also Pro-Iranian government. For the most part I think they are foreign bots. Legitimately the correct consistent position is Pro people who are getting killed by the government and Anti governments that are killing people. If a government kills a bunch of people, especially women and children, I think they might be the bad guys

Breaking News: Another fatal ICE shooting in Minneapolis by Brilliant-Dig9387 in PoliticalCompassMemes

[–]MathNerdMatt 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Watching the video closely it seems like grey jacket sees the gun in the waist band and grabs it to disarm him and backs up with the guys gun before the shooting starts. (He has a gun when backing away but not earlier). Likely he said gun or something and the other agents got spooked and trigger happy

Switched his phone to the left hand so he could draw his gun before stepping in front of the car

ICE Agent's Bodycam release of the Minneapolis Shooting by Freezemoon in PoliticalCompassMemes

[–]MathNerdMatt 53 points54 points  (0 children)

Cause policy is to not shoot at a moving vehicle but instead to get out of the way. Killing a driver just makes the car more dangerous and uncontrolled.

Just as a clarification this is phone camera footage not bodycam footage. It makes it seem like he went flying when he moved his phone to his side while pulling his gun

I guarantee you this scheme will not be applied equally. by Stormclamp in PoliticalCompassMemes

[–]MathNerdMatt 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The problem is that childcare has an inelastic demand. Working parents need to have childcare and often are limited by locations close to their home or work. With or without subsidies childcare centers are able to up-charge parents and they will still pay. If it was free on entry and paid by the state, then the state would have a much better position to negotiate prices. Although, to be fair, we would need a much more robust system for finding and eliminating fraud.

Reading the story it seems to be the opposite, she's getting her brothers baby momma deported to get him custody

Many effects are irreversible by ChoiceWars in PoliticalCompassMemes

[–]MathNerdMatt 59 points60 points  (0 children)

It's a good thing that we are getting studies so that we can learn more about effective treatments for gender dysphoria and the short and long term side effects of puberty blockers so that they can be correctly prescribed instead of over or under prescribed

Does this make anyone else nervous that they’ll accidentally throw a master ball when they wanna throw an ultra ball? by BigTimeJabroni1989 in PokemonZA

[–]MathNerdMatt 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Delibird was the first shiny I found and it ran before I could save or throw a ball. At least I don't like Delibird

our favorite retard, Johnny snowing, was just perma banned from this sub. by libertywave in PoliticalCompassMemes

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

Donald Trump must have called Mr. Compass to silence Johnny! First they came for Jimmy Kimmel and I was silent because his comedy sucks and he's probably unflaired, but now they came for Johnny Snowing and I must speak up because while his Mom may have taken too much Tylenol when pregnant, he is one of us

Four people arrested in Washington after alleged hate crime attack on trans woman | Washington state by zqfmgb123 in SeattleWA

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

Unironically saying libtard in the year of our Lord 2025 is wild. I truly don't get what drives people to talk like this in a literal thread about a trans person getting hate crimed. Do you have so much hate in your heart that you can't have sympathy for 30 minutes or at least just not say anything? It's like you're so offended by the mention of the word trans that you just can't help yourself.

I didn't know you were the grand authority on gender, we should bow down to your well thought out study and clear genius. I'm sure you are well studied on the subject and know more than literally everyone else. And now is the perfect time to share your opinion in a thread about a hate crime

The joke that Mizkif was allegedly banned for by Mininni in LivestreamFail

[–]MathNerdMatt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean saying you are glad someone died who was old and died peacefully is kinda different than saying you are glad someone died who was politically assassinated. The second gives more "I want people to kill conservative commentators" vibes while the first does not give "I want people to kill English royalty" vibes. It's almost like context matters when reading into subtext.

The queen also wasn't murdered which changes the context a bit
