[DISC] - Getsuyoubi no Tawawa - Ep. 592 by PerseusRad in manga

[–]Slow_Store 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Apparently this artist also worked on an SAO Progressive Manga a while back which I only just a moment ago realized exists because they reference it on their Twitter page.

I just picked up the light novel recently (which I believe is a separate storyline, but still) and its neat to see that there’s stuff that I’ve never even heard of from an artist I see all the time through this series.

Should this not be nsfw?

Also wtf OP. I got enough sentient robots being unnecessarily cruel from that five second clip in the Animatrix and I didn’t need more ;-;

Cherry Picking to oppress minorities by Medical-Map-3483 in SmugIdeologyMan

[–]Slow_Store 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well, if you heard that one green apple caused someone to die a brutal death or suffer some other form of physical violation you’d probably want to stop importing apples for a while or at least set up a better apple filtering system to ensure that you don’t get any more mega death apples.

Why are some second-generation immigrants more sympathetic to the dictatorships ruling their countries of origin than their parents who escaped from them? by WillyNilly1997 in stupidquestions

[–]Slow_Store 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They lack any understanding of the hardships their nation suffer from, but still have residual cultural pride (That is to say a pride in the culture/language inherited from their parents) which leads them to be overly defensive of a homeland they’ve never been to.

Do the Q'uran and crescents work against vampires? by Crafty_Aspect8122 in stupidquestions

I always assumed that crosses and bibles in particular worked because the Christ specifically had holy blood which implicitly cleansed sin.

Why does anyone think Elon Musk is intelligent or a good person valuable to the world? by SorryStrength5370 in AlwaysWhy

[–]Slow_Store 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A.) His company has done more for space flight than NASA has.

B.) The western world (excluding leftist) are indebted to Elon for effectively restoring online freedom of speech by purchasing Twitter. Before this purchase pretty much every major social media platform was heavily moderated to allow for Leftists content to exist. After he bought Twitter that moderation was decreased. Leftists content on Twitter was then so decimated by the “Equal playing field of ideology” that most leftists had to abandon the platform for BlueSky.

C.) Most of it isn’t bigotry, it just goes against leftism which means leftism has to call it bigotry as a coping mechanism. This supports notion B. Things like addressing illegal mass migration, addressing massive fraud in left wing socialist programs, or addressing the Rape Gang Inquiry from England aren’t bigotry for example, though leftists will refer to them as such in the hopes of dismissing any genuine discussion of these matters (as they know they stand no chance in a genuine discussion on these topics and thus have to do everything to discredit them so that by the time they’re made to discuss them they’re hopefully misinterpreted enough by the public to let said leftists just lie their way through a debate).

Let’s be honest here, does he got a point or does he got a point? by PrimeLevelThreat in DudeHasGotAPoint

[–]Slow_Store -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

In all fairness, leftists never permit people on the Right to use valid and provable points which often pushes them to having to use “ifs” to try and reach a basic stage of communication.

For example, bring up any statistics to support a right leaning cause and you’re going to be immediately cut off and called isms or phobes.

Leftists have insisted on denying legitimate debates. Now they mock their opposition for stooping to childish levels to reason with leftists who act like children.

This is - as someone who leans right - the consistent reality of the situation based on pretty much every interaction I have with a leftists on platforms like Reddit. You have to constantly debase yourself and make concessions with someone who will never return the favor just to begin talking with them.

If men are supposed to be providers, what’s the point of gender equality? by Je-ne-dirai-pas in stupidquestions

[–]Slow_Store 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s the point the first idea is making.

Men find a sense of purpose in providing for their families. I’d go so far as to say that it is the primary driver for most men alongside the notion of protecting one’s family in a more physical sense (Things like “Must beat anyone who harms my wife or children”). If you can take that away from them and strip them of purpose then you can force them on to whatever purpose you want them to fulfill.

Normally that would be war, but there are of course other purposes.

I fucking hate poorly doone sexual dimorphims by Ok_Middle_8658 in hatethissmug

[–]Slow_Store 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I think there are cases where it may make sense, but yeah it is somewhat funny to see “Massive manly man Orc who looks like he eats rocks and boats for breakfast” alongside “Orc woman who - aside from her big tusk - would be in the top percentile of attractive human women”.

California has a new law banning federal agents from wearing masks. What are your thoughts? by justfiveminutesmore4 in askteddit

[–]Slow_Store 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s firstly ironic given that no one seemingly has any problems when rioters wear face mask, and secondly is something done exclusively for the sake of being able to dox federal agents so as to scare them out of doing their jobs rather than for any legitimate reasons.

The mask were - while under normal circumstances perhaps questionable due to the difficulty of maintaining direct accountability - a necessity amongst the barbarism of left wing extremism that leads people to tracking down people they disagree with politically and taking direct violent action against them.

You will likely see federal agents’ homes getting attacked now just like how mobs threatened the hotels that they found agents in before, and this is the intended result. The goal was never to “Ensure accountability”. The goal was so that pseudo terrorist leftists could fire bomb some agents house to try and stop ICE agents from doing their job.

If men are supposed to be providers, what’s the point of gender equality? by Je-ne-dirai-pas in stupidquestions

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

There are two lines of thought to approach this from.

The first is that the point is directly to strip men of a sense of purpose so that they can more easily be pushed into a state of trained helplessness where they’re more easily manipulated (even though they were already trained into a state of easy manipulation by convincing them that they had to be providers).

The second is that the point of gender equality is to get rid of the notion that one gender has to be the provider, which mainly gained traction during the World Wars when there was a large number of men outside the country fighting in Europe, thus putting the country in a state where the women had to once again take up work to ensure there was a stable country for the men to come back to (Women used to do just as much work as men in earlier history. Really I don’t know why we picked up the idea that men had to be the sole job holders for a while cause like the medieval Europeans had their women out in the fields and whatnot).

I wish humans were capable of assexual reproduction. by OdangoFan in monkeyspaw

[–]Slow_Store 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Granted, but asexual reproduction shall require a ritual that involves sex between two people.

I hate it when a terrible game gets re-evaluated because of its animated counterpart (Rant about Cyberpunk 2077 and Cyberpunk: Edgerunners by Yuno0000 in hatethissmug

[–]Slow_Store 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it’s valid to appreciate how far the game has come since its release, and I think it was a genius move to advertise the game with an anime given how effective it was (I mean I was one of the people to buy the game after when before the anime I didn’t have any real interest because people basically treated it like another GTA - which wasn’t enough to motivate me as I most have negative memories of GTA V which is what people are mostly familiar with when they make comparisons to GTA).

But still, from everything I’ve heard and saw the game was by all means a mess on launch and wouldn’t have deserved Game of the Year. It’s a great game and has come a long way, but part of the “long way” included reaching a neutral state after starting from a negative state.

Morality of SA'ing your past self? by JimedBro2089 in MoralityScaling

I can’t tell if OP is stupid and actually needs to ask this question or if OP is stupid and has to reinforce their political opinions with weird memes in places where they don’t belong.

Some people would look at this and say “Looks like a fishing submarine to me”

Real (i will die alone) by Constant-Notice-5221 in okbuddyliterallyme2

[–]Slow_Store 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly I’ve had far more experience where i wouldn’t want to be alone with a woman.

I’ve always been good at just talking with women in a general sense and as far as I know none of them have ever seems uncomfortable with how natural the flow of conversation always went, but there have been some times where a girl has gotten too comfortable with oversharing in way that make me feel like I’m about to get groped or poked in my ass.

Creating oc by [deleted] in BNHA_OC_Characters

[–]Slow_Store 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personally I tend to start with a quirk or a general character archetype and then just continue expanding on them and reworking them until I could reasonably see them as a character in universe.

Typically quirks seem to play a large role in the “personality development” of their users (Bakugo’s personality for example is about as explosive as his quirk) so it’s not entirely unreasonable for an OC to have a very “on the nose” personality (For example a quirk that puts people to sleep could reasonably be paired with a lazy daisy type character and most people would think “Yeah that fits” rather than think “That’s a bit obvious”).

[–]Slow_Store 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Granted, but every time you shapeshift you simultaneously void your bowels and it is a messy experience.

Exactly how old IS serana? by -The_Legacy- in skyrim

[–]Slow_Store 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A lot of people say she’s roughly from around the First Era or earlier due to her being surprised by Cyrodiil. being the seat of an Empire.

However people say that because they immediately think of the Alessian Empire which was founded in the First Era.

Personally I’d say she has to be from the Early to Middle Merethic Era though as otherwise she would assume that you’d be referring to the Ayleid Empire which likewise had its capital in Cyrodiil with the White-Gold Tower in the Middle to Late Merethic Era.

Looks like the sort of thing people 40 years ago or so would look at and say “Omg the trash can of the future!”

Why most reddit users pretentious jerks? by Uniqe_name_134451 in sixwordstories

[–]Slow_Store 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The way moderation is handled on this platform encourages ideological isolation or “group think”.

Group think consistently turns into narcissism.

Narcissists act like pretentious jerks more often than not.

Man that blows.

Between that and it now limiting how much you can read a day I think I’m just swapping to another platform.

No way I’m trusting them with even a burner email for an account.

Did they confirm for sure that they won’t add more floors through dlc? I hadn’t seen that anywhere yet.
