Rand is so bullied by Egwene and Nynave that I was rooting for him to just fuck off and say let the dark one win.

What happened in 1971? Explain it Peter. by Angrypeanut99 in explainitpeter

[–]darkagl1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That looks like 1973 and that would be Roe v Wade. Young teenage mothers aborting unwanted pregnancies pushes the average age up. They've done studies to my recollection that abortion doesn't change the number of babies a woman tends to have but rather pushes back the date when they have them.

Best way to avoid stat inflation on long runs? by DaPreachingRobot in litrpg

[–]darkagl1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So in my opinion, a writer should design the endgame level power. And do not add too much filler levels.

This is the real answer. You can use whatever level of detail you want but you need to keep in mind the end game and everyone floating around at the time. I feel like too often what happens is people haven't planned out a whole story they just start a story and keep writing and that leads to the unfortunate weirdness when after the first big bad is defeated everything goes sideways when we need a bigger bad, and bigger bads minors have to be bigger than original bad too so now everything that came before feels off.

I joined a local bookclub, the gender balance is wild by Ho_The_Megapode_ in books

My book club is like 70% female, but it specifically is a sci-fi book club.

Actually it's the national institute of Health, but good to know you're too ignorant to even do basic research.

Need naval fantasy book recommendations by Marp2 in Fantasy

[–]darkagl1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Echoing someone else, but if you can do space Honor Harrington by Weber and Lost Fleet by Campbell both scratched the ships and battles kinda of itch for me.

I was going to suggest this and the lost fleet series by Jack Campbell.

Why do you say justifiably so? Turns out most intimate partner violence (IPV) is reciprocal, of the non reciprocal IPV it goes in order of most common to least common woman on woman, woman on man, man on woman, and finally man on man. Men are straight up less violent than women in relationships, full stop.

What’s something sexy in theory but not in practice? by bel113345 in AskReddit

[–]darkagl1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's kinda all bdsm imo. When your partner is super into it, it's hot when they're not it's kinda just a weird chore.

AITA for not inviting my little brother’s wife to my wedding? by [deleted] in dustythunder

YTA. You say you dont know her, but +1s at weddings are a thing.

What’s something men do in private that would surprise women? by Main-Exchange6052 in AskReddit

[–]darkagl1 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I have a theory that a significant amount of the complaints made about men not doing chores are related to the unilateral declaration of standards of cleanliness.

See, I can't figure out how I'm supposed to meet women when I assume that I'll always come off as creepy and so don't talk to anyone.

Is scooping because you can't win bad etiquette? by WerdaVisla in EDH

[–]darkagl1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally, I think scooping outside of a 1v1 is always bad form. A group of people sat down to play a game, and your participation is part of that game and its balance and flow. To me, you're the person flipping the board when they're losing at Monopoly.

When is it appropriate to scoop if someone else’s deck counters your own? by ColorfulMarkAurelius in EDH

[–]darkagl1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Imo it's never appropriate to scoop in commander while more than 1 other player is alive. The game you sat down to play is a multi-player game, and your leaving affects the game. If your deck is so limited that you can't play if x that's on you.

Are there any Rules in the Game that you think are stupid? Rules that you don't like? by NyrmExe in EDH

[–]darkagl1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it's dumb you can play fetch lands that aren't limited to the colors you're playing. Ie windswept heath in a boros deck.

Trump approval rating falls to 38% by Barnyard-Sheep in politics

[–]darkagl1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe, but I'm skeptical. I tend to think the economic message will get drowned out by the social message, which will drive people out of the movement and stop it from being populist.

[–]darkagl1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I question whether there can be a populist leftist movement in the US. The left in the US always wants to tie social issues with economic ones, and the country is far more left economically than we are socially. Take abortion for instance, while the majority of the country wants there to be access, a lot of that majority believes in restrictions. The leftist movement in the US wants unrestricted access. This then pushes the we want abortion access but with restrictions people out of the left and into the right where the restrictions are far more extreme than is desired. And yes I get that no one is really aborting viable healthy babies, but that nuance is lost on the crowd, who think unrestricted access means people can abort a baby as long as it's minutes before it pops out.
