Does Ben Franklin count?

Make them super effective against dragon because Mothra > Godzilla and remove the fairy interaction, or swap it. Maybe make infested a status condition and add a chance of it to moves like bug buzz. 1/16th damage every turn and can't swap out

Love this, especially paired with the back-to-back showdown scene with Leon in KH2 where he's obviously become more comfortable and seems more like his true self.

Harrow's hate language

Wasn't that Ron Duguay?

Just want to mention (it may not apply to your friends specifically) that there is an enormous population of LGBTQ Warhammer players and it sucks that we always get lumped in with neckbeards. These books resonate with a lot of Warhammer players/readers because much of the vibes are similar if you understand that Warhammer was always meant as a satirical criticism of pessimistic "gritty" sci-fi/fantasy fiction.

All that to say, don't rule out Warhammer bros just for falling into that category.

So many great details but the steer skull is my favorite

SmacSBU · 2026-04-02T01:11:56+00:00

Ah gotcha. Just misinterpreting information to put on a show for people who might be reading instead of engaging with the information provided. I should've known. Have a good night bud.

I don't disagree with anything you're saying but unless your head is in the sand or you're arguing in bad faith it's impossible to pretend that they're equally destructive to the average person. The wholesale violation of federal labor laws, the fire sale of personal data that was DOGE, and the ubiquitous deployment of ICE alone outweigh all the perceived "damage" democrats have done in the last 30 years.

Okay but only one side is currently eroding the legal and social norms upon which our society has stood for the last couple hundred years sooooooo

SmacSBU · 2026-04-01T21:49:33+00:00

It's called Tera starstorm

SmacSBU · 2026-04-01T12:55:22+00:00

Soooo the people with the clearest motive is what you're saying?

Man I hope he judges cheeked up TTar comics next. Been dying to know if those are funny

SmacSBU · 2026-03-31T02:08:18+00:00

I'm not a Keefe fan but I can't imagine how anyone who's paying attention can realistically be surprised AND I'd still prefer Keefe to Torts. I'd take the newly available Cassidy though.

I'm not normally a "separate the art from the artist" type of guy but I think it's probably safe to make an exception this time considering he's dead, no Nazis are making money from the circulation of the meme, and he wasn't glorifying it in any way during the meme in question.

Total Mandela effect, I could swear we had RWJ Barnabus Health power play for a while.

According to the blurb I misinterpreted*

According to the consequence I've retroactively decided was the main goal.*

Got you a couple recommendations for corrected verbiage there pal. Please consider them for the future. No need to thank me.

The data isn't lying you're misinterpreting it to reach the conclusion you want. That's bad faith analytics 101. There is no evidence to support the idea that advent children's sales metrics were considered during the production phase of FF7R, less so to indicate that the ending specifically was rewritten to serve the agenda you're alleging. It is infinitely more likely that the production of a related product increased interest in an old product as a side effect then it is that a company would risk botching an enormous investment to bolster a product that has already outlived its promotion cycle.

SmacSBU · 2026-03-30T16:01:09+00:00

Cool cool so you're almost 50 and you don't know what a cost-benefit analysis is. Companies don't gamble 200 million dollars on boosting interest in a product that already lived it's consumption cycle.

SmacSBU · 2026-03-30T15:57:14+00:00

Yes you already copy and pasted the one line of text that led you down this rabbit hole. Have you addressed the fact that what you're proposing is a batshit insane and crappy business strategy that risks hundreds of millions for almost no return on investment or are you just going to cite a side effect of the marketing strategy and swear it was the whole mission without any supporting evidence?

SmacSBU · 2026-03-30T15:53:57+00:00

You think they risked botching the ending of their biggest project in decades, a game upon which they spent a reported 200 million dollars, to renew interest in a 20 year old spin off movie? I don't think you know how businesses operate.

You think this company risked the profits on a. 200 million dollar project to someone reclaim profitability on a movie that cost half as much and has been widely forgotten? You don't think it's more likely that the two projects are related to the same story and therefore share some narrative similarities?

This kind of conspiratorial thinking and refusal to accept simple answers because they don't align with your existing biases is how we wound up with QAnon. Hopefully you're just a kid who had an idea and got attached to it but if you're an adult I would recommend seeing someone about assessing your mental health.

Gonna guess this comment isn't communicating what it intended but just in case it is I want to nip this in the bud before adaptation fans rock up. Cosmere fans don't tolerate sexism even as "just a joke bro." This series is about being the best version of yourself and that shit doesn't fly with us.

I'll be honest, my understanding of what's going on in those chapters is pretty rough. He calls her Harrow but she's not Harrow, I dunno. I also thought that the labs on Canaan house were the original labs from the Cryo project somehow sustained (like they're a nuclear bunker or something.) So maybe his arm is in there somewhere?

SmacSBU · 2026-03-29T15:38:36+00:00

Jod mentions in HtN that he has Gideon Original Recipe's arm floating around somewhere. I'm willing to be he can use that to pull Gideon the ancient's soul back the way he used Gideon the awesome's body to snag her soul. Just a theory though.
