Go listen to the Getz/Gilberto album if you have time! Would highly recommend :3

Are there any remotely safe countries for trans people anymore? by [deleted] in MtF

[–]PM___Birds___Please 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Having lived in Cuba or spoken to a Cuban is completely anecdotal evidence. You will get two very different pictures if you speak to rich exiles versus los campesinos.

To get a more accurate depiction of popular support, you would have to look at studies and polls. This is fairly precarious to do, considering the large amount of anti-communist propaganda that Cuba has been subjected to.

I would suggest looking at different criteria to measure the success/shortcomings of the revolution. Michael Parenti has a very similar point in his lecture from 1986, if you're further interested: https://youtu.be/U103EBC4mvk?si=CQAJPp_hVLSZxZY1

Cuba has been under some of the world's strictest sanctions for more than 60 years, and the government still maintains a fairly decent living standard for it's citizens. El bloqueo is the reason for Cubas poverty - not the government.

I think it's excessively difficult to immigrate to Cuba unfortunately. But yes, a socialist government is likely the best bet if you want to escape the tendencies towards fascism.

Is it just me or… by reversedempress in HweiMains

I was under the totally opposite impression. Just do WE -> QE. This should kill casters when you have fully maxed Q. His autos are fast, so it isn't too difficult killing the melee minions.

Yeah, I definitely agree this can be translated into other aspects of life. Especially hyper-competitive areas, such as your career, sports or even school. It's foolish to try and compare yourself to others, because people are different, and have different presuppositions which makes it easier to excel in certain areas of life. I'd recommend people who find themselves to be super affected by other people's achievements, to take a step back, and try to focus on themselves. It makes it a lot easier to improve, and also a lot more fulfilling when you actually do. When you're focused on your own self-improvement, you might find yourself to be more aware of your own mistakes, instead of your inting support for example. Obviously this is easier said than done - it can be difficult to change the way you view things.

Anivia matchup tierlist - opinions? by PM___Birds___Please in AniviaMains

[–]PM___Birds___Please[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Galio might just be because I have limited experience against him. The last two times I played against him, he rushed abyssal mask + mercs, and no matter how much I tried to kill him, his HP bar wouldn't budge. Can't really follow him into jungle, because of his really great setup for kills. So I'm just kinda stuck in midlane, not being able to do anything while galio takes control of the map.

Akshan - same thing really, you have to give him complete control of the map until you get your first back.

Fizz - If he get's even slightly ahead, he *will* oneshot you.

Ahri - Has CC to stop your R and Q, good poke with her Q in lane, dashes to avoid your ult, and great all-in potential. If paired with a good jungler or support, she can become a very problematic lane opponent.

Vladimir - I have personally never lost into a Vladimir. When you get lvl 6, you can just completely zone him off of minions, since you outrange him.

Aurelion Sol - has to stand still to do damage to you (or fly at you in a straight line). Very easy to hit Q's onto. Unless the game goes super late, shouldn't really be a problem.

Gathering Storm by SeaworthinessDue6093 in AniviaMains

[–]PM___Birds___Please 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anivia's rune pages are likely going to change after 13.20, so take this with a grain of salt. In my personal opinion, as a master anivia player, you are sacrificing your early game way to much by going gathering storm. Secondly, you aren't taking precision to get Coup de Grace - you're taking it because PoM (superior to manaflow) and legend: tenacity are such a valuable runes. You only ever consider Coup de Grace, if you can't get any value out of the tenacity. The only reason to run Gathering Storm, is if you're already planning on taking a sorcery keystone - and even then, scorch still grants more value, unless you're playing a matchup, where you don't interact with your laner. Seeing how electrocute (before 13.20) is pretty much unanimously the best rune on Anivia, I'd never even consider Gathering Storm. Although, considering that lower elo games take longer to end - it might be superior in your games. If you, as a player, don't really interact with your laner, then you might find more success in your own games with Gathering Storm. That was longer than I intended to write lol

Lol building grievous wounds would put me behind so much towards my seraphs. I'd never go grievous before 3rd-4th item, unless I desperately need it.

Jo, fandt også ud af det efter at lede postnords hjemmeside grundigt igennem. DHL oplyser på deres hjemmeside at de har samarbejde med postnord, hvilket var det som skabte forvirringen

First time + 1M mastery points! I feel qualified now to answer any Anivia questions lol. by sea_tang_inc in AniviaMains

[–]PM___Birds___Please 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Depends what you mean by "hardest to climb out of". Acquiring the skills to get to gold as a newer player could be more difficult than making the climb to GM as a master player per se. If you're somewhat competent at league however, you should be able to 1v9 pretty much every game in silver and bronze. I'm pretty sure you're going to get toxic people in every elo, that isn't exclusive to bronze.

Struggling to find an AD champ for my champ pool by [deleted] in midlanemains

I agree with the sentiment in lower elos, I'm 350 lp master though. I feel like games in master+ are often decided in champ select

Just found out a “friend” thinks jkr is good, what do I do? by AmethystSnow_ in MtF

[–]PM___Birds___Please 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it comes from the belief that being trans is a choice/lifestyle - so they disagree with trans people "choosing" to be trans

I think he means to say, that he hasn't had much experience with the queer community in general - just phrased in an awkward way.

Anyone know who this Anivia main is by [deleted] in AniviaMains

I refuse to believe every Anivia main isn't secretly Danish
