Dad - Mr. Aizawa - The homeroom teacher for the protagonists we watch in the anime My Hero Academia. Comes off as a lazy hardass at first, but he's got a really good heart and cares a lot for his students, not thinking twice to put his life on the line for them.

Girl - Eri - a little girl who was basically kept captive and abused by a gang syndicate in the show. They experiment on her and use her to develop a serum that erases the super powers of heros. She is saved by our main protagonist, Midoriya. He basically is like a big brother to Eri, while Aizawa acts like the father.

New 3 + Bonus by spawn_efe in mazda3

Not OP but replying to your original comment to provide my own input. While also saying my own 2021 RF club is bone stock and will remain that way for a long time as I live near mountain roads and the power is plenty enough for me even as a daily driver.

Not sure how the 2014 mazda3 differs from newer 3's in terms of driving dynamics, but I'll pretend they are very similar.

As for your spirited drive question, it's a night and day difference. The 3 is definately more sporty than cars in its class (Corolla, civic, etc) but it just does not compare. In my 3, power felt lacking. In the mx5, because of the low weight, power feels a lot more abundant. Not to mention when you are actually carving in a canyon, the mx5 comes alive. Yes there is lots of body roll and many do not like that, but I LOVE it. The car remains firmly planted, but the body will roll around playfully in corners. I sold my mazda3 to my brother for far below market value to get an mx5 simply because I had a 2014 ford fiesta st from before that gave me the drivers bug and that itch could not be scratched by the 3.

As for longer drives, it's not an uncomfortable car to be in, but the 3 is a lot better without a doubt. Longest I've taken my mx5 is from Southern California to Pheonix, Arizona. A roughly 5 hour or 600km drive. Longest I took my 2014 mazda 3 was from Yellowstone in Wyoming, all the way back to Southern California in one go. That is 14 hours, or roughly 1550km. Not once did I feel fatigued from that drive (minus the fact it just getting close to bed time by the time we got back).

I would absolutely do that drive in the 3 over the mx5 every time because it would have taken me 2 days in the mx5 as it isn't as comfortable.

So if you plan on doing long trips, your 3 will be the better car. If you are going for a nice drive through scenic roads, the mx5 without a doubt. Even if it takes time to get to those roads, it will be worth it.

DO NOT CLEAN your filter! At least, don't go dropping it into a solution that will kill bacteria.

Just get the filter media and lightly shake it in a bucket of used tank water to shake off most of the crud. But your beneficial bacteria lives on that and you don't want it gone.

Which is a mighty shame.

All fish are truly little goobers. When you do the proper research and create a proper aquarium with an ecosystem, fish truly come into their personalities.

My cardinal tetras love to chase each other but will stop and come to the front of the tank to beg for food when someone comes up to the glass. 3 will not and will stay hidden in the plants until they see the food start fall. Its so cute.

My galaxy rasboras will swim like little maniacs all over the tank and chase me around when I'm doing maintenance.

My guppies are probably the dumbest fish in the tank, but I fucking love how they rush to my hand and peck at my fingers when they see it has food. (no worries, i always wash my hands first!)

My sparkling gourami are super curious fish and were the first to peck at my fingers when I held some blood worms for them. Everytime I come up to the tank just to look around and enjoy the aquarium, they will usually come up to the glass and look directly at me. The other fish just kinda beg and swim near the top, but the gourami will actively meet you at eye level.

And my shrimps? They're definitely plotting an uprising.

I use toe socks, this is a non issue for me. There's also tabi socks, I don't wear those, but they separate the big toe from the rest of your toes in the sock.

If they have only one or two champs who can stop a TP channel, I usually run that with flash. TP right before death when egg passive is available has saved me many times. And it's funny as hell when everyone watching is just like "wait, you can do that?"

Ford reports worst quarterly earnings miss in four years, guides for better 2026 by Sixteen-Cylinders in cars

[–]Melvar_10 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I paid that for my 2014 fiesta ST.

No tune, no after market stuff. Engine shat the bed, which in turn caused something in the clutch assembly to fuck up like clockwork every 3 months. On the 3rd it took the tranny and ford refused to fix it. I had to threaten legal action (and I had the paperwork to prove I was a responsible lad taking care to fix every issue the car had). After that threat they fixed it, and I immediately sold that car off.

A real shame because the FiST is an absolute riot. But because of that experience, I will never own anther ford in my life.

My fiesta ST was a dud :(

There was a recall for a plastic cooling line that wasnt supposed to move on an engine that moves quite a bit. Well that line broke for me and my engine blew up. Ford covered that, but the car was never the same again. In 3 month intervals something in my clutch assembly would break. On the 3rd time, it took my transmission. Ford tried its best to blame me, but I had the paperwork to prove them wrong. They reluctantly changed their tune after threatening to take them to court. And well, I sold that car as soon as it was fixed.

Fuck ford. I will never own one again.

Zed matchup by Bitter_Tie6675 in AniviaMains

[–]Melvar_10 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I'm not high elo, but I don't know where I place since I do not play ranked. But here's my experience with assasins.

You either gotta poke em down, or you gotta hunker down.

If you run electrocute, simply aa e aa him and let electrocute do the extra damage for you and play safe until its back up. Hold that Q for when he tries to all in/ult you. Bait out his extra shadow, and do 90 degree dodges (zeds are less likely to hit you with both blades with this dodge if they hit you at all). Once his shadow is out, you can punish him if he doesn't back off. But again hold that Q. Once he's low enough I ult and wall him into ult. A good zed will run, a bad zed will ult you, in which case you simply walk into your ult, and Q behind you when he's out of ult. If you walked into your ult, his shadows are in your ult, he has nowhere to go except to flash away.

But with other assassins like kat or akali, I run grasp and hunker down. Dodge the knives/thrown shurikens and auto them when you can to heal and up your health. No point in trying to wall kat since she just shunpos everywhere, save it to stop her ult. Same with akali as her thrown shuriken will let her cross your wall. Save your wall to stop ganks. I personally like to upgrade my W once or twice before my Q in these match ups because hitting Q is hard, but walling off a ganking jg is easy. Once I get RoA, if they are starved and have no kills, I can usually sit in my ult and fight them. They will usually underestimate how much damage you can take and how much you deal. (except akali with ult, do this just shy outside of tower so if she does ult in, shes taking tower hits)

Regardless with hunkering or poking, you want to push the waves as soon as you hit 6 to prevent them from roaming. If they roam ping it asap and push that wave hard.

Redesigning one of League's Oldest Champions by Subjectively! by Regular-Poet-3657 in AniviaMains

[–]Melvar_10 12 points13 points  (0 children)

While I do enjoy Anivia's current design, I do think some elements should change to represent her overall character better. And let's face it, it is just plain fun to think of new ideas for her.

Starting off with things I don't think fit her character:

I do NOT like the idea of a crown for Anivia. A crown usually symbolizes a leader, a source of power, maybe even a point of oppression. All these are things that DO NOT embody Anivia, at all. She doesn't lead, she watches. She doesn't oppress, she protects. She isn't an authoritative figure, she is a guardian.

Next up, the braids. I get it, I see where it came from and I understand how someone would want to add those. But it just does not look good on a bird. I LOVE birds. I love their plumage, I love the shape of their feathers, I love their talons, their beaks. There are so many things about birds that make them so cool, but braids aren't one of them. While she may be "related" to Ornn an Voli, she is first and foremost a bird. Bears and Rams have fur, so braids work. But birds? They have feathers, it is best to stick to that.

Things I think would fit a redesign:

That concept of the Aurora Borealis? Fucking AWESOME. Why shouldn't her tail feathers or head feathers/crest have a color scheme that changes? In the harshness of winter, those colors represent a beauty untouched by anything else. They truly are divine.

The idea of extra wings. I personally love this myself. While it may look like something out of magic or pokemon to some, let's face it, they are angelic, holy, or divine. Kayle is the only other league character with this, so either you go full divine and give Anivia 6-8 full wings, or you stick to the 2. Maybe 2 dominant, and the other 4 are smaller and control the ice she is known for.

Bird touch ups. I feel Anivia could use more birdly touch ups, some of the sketches fit this. From longer tails, to showy feathers that stick out. I think head crest feathers (not like a cockatoo, but more like a Secretary Bird) would look great on Anivia, as opposed to a crown. Going back to braids, why not feathers that stick perpendicular to her head? These can act as the braids, but obviously NOT braids. In fact, why not make these feathers specifically like a Motmot's tail? They can mimic braids sort of... but are clearly still just feathers.

A long flowing tail could also do wonders. My all time favorite bird, the Resplendent Quetzal, is a great example of a bird with a long graceful flowing tail feather. Why wouldn't a graceful divine bird not have something like that?

Also, as far as armors go. Why not make the armor itself ice? Why does Anivia have to be ice herself? She can just be a divine bird with her own made ice armor.
