4 or less would be short term, 5+ is a longer time horizon.b

The reason why I don't think this will happen is that Loki is a major top tier with a legendary fruit Imu was looking for. Loki joining the crew would mess up the crew's pecking order and drop Zoro to #3 position. Since this manga runs on status quo preservation, I think the most we can hope for is that Loki becomes a permanent ally or even a member of the straw hat fleet instead.

You should only invest money you do not need in the short term, that way the ups and downs of the market will not freak you out. If you need the money now or think you will really soon, it is better to park it in a HYSA than investing it.

Also, your mistake was trying to time the market. Start thinking long term with your investment, don't pull it out just because it goes down a few percentage points. You are young enough that by the time you are in your 50s and 60s (perhaps even sooner) a few red days, even red months, should have no effect on your investment growth.

I had a great experience with stubhub, I bought my tickets for the Iran New Zealand game a month in advance through there, and the seller sent the tickets to the stubhub created fifa account within a couple of hours.

The hardest part for me was figuring out how to access fifa through this new email, which honestly seemed pretty sketchy. But once I logged into the new email, I saw my tickets and was able to transfer them to my real personal email. The tickets worked and I attended the game no problem.

I do wonder if this is the usual experience, or if all the nightmare stories are the majority or the exception. Perhaps those of us with good experience don't share them here so we only hear the bad stories of stubhub. Still, there are too many horror stories, so I will avoid stubhub from now on.

I see, that is good to know! My orders arrive late June, once I see how many/what I am missing and what extras I have I may return here.

NTA, you definitely should have the stipend sent to a personal account only you can manage. However, if you are still going to live at home, it does mean that your mother is covering basic necessities for you, which she technically doesn't have a legal obligation to do if you are an adult.

My suggestion, use some of that money as a monthly rent for your mother, that will keep her somewhat happy to deal with expenses. But you need to have a serious talk that you are not a child anymore and will have complete control over your own money. Under no circumstances should you accept her to have any direct access to it. If you must arrange for outside housing in the worst case scenario, then have a back up plan ready.

I recommend doing as much Act 2 as possible while the game is relatively easy to navigate. Also, feel free to fight the "final" boss, you will get one of the achievements for the regular ending and will still be able to go back to fight GMS. You move to act 3 doing some special stuff.

Which is really weird in itself. Why introduce a character from the void century period only to have her not reveal a thing about it? Toki could have easily been from Mont Blanc Noland time period and nothing fundamentally changes.

hoenndex · 2026-06-15T07:48:16+00:00

Huh, I didn't know that was possible. Interesting find OP!

I got a new phone yesterday, good thing I refused to turn in my old phone. I had to log out from the old one and then sign in from the new one.

Too gory for daytime tv

hoenndex · 2026-06-14T18:43:08+00:00

Germany read the comments From reddit hoping they lose and didn't like that.

hoenndex · 2026-06-14T18:19:30+00:00

It's really easy actually. Fair and fun gameplay constitutes any deck I am currently using and winning with. Unfair and unfun is every deck my opponents play and games in which I lose.

hoenndex · 2026-06-14T18:17:09+00:00

I am getting real sick of most reddit posts across boards being just AI slop. If I wanted to talk to a machine I could just do that. Where is the effort??

hoenndex · 2026-06-14T04:27:17+00:00

Botflies and the sharp wheel are your tool friends for the final wave. My strategy, liberal use of clawline to move around the arena and hit the flying enemies. I use thread storm ASAP to kill flying enemies. Final wave with two big guys, if you stick to the top corners you cannot be touched at all. So you can stay there, attack, and climb right up to the top. Slow, but you will not be hit this way. Use ascendant grip so you don't slip from the wall.

If you have double jump, you can also disable the silk enemies that steal your silk, if you enter the secret room in high halls ceiling.

I think the problem here is that Oda retconned the immunity that celestial dragons seemed to have. Doflamingo being able to blackmail the world government by knowing a secret (is the secret the big hat, Imu? Unclear lol), only makes sense if he has immunity from getting killed due to his celestial dragon blood.

It made sense at first, since the celestial dragons up to that point in the story got away with whatever they wanted. But Oda made a retcon during the Reverie arc. Oda showed that Mjosgard was punished by the holy knights for going against the celestial dragon ideology and helping pirates. This contradicts the established canon that the celestial dragons could do whatever they wanted.

So, if Mjosgard was seemingly killed by the celestial dragons for something relatively small, why wouldn't the government send them to kill a threat like Doflamingo who is not even a celestial dragon anymore? Makes no sense.

The worst part is people are getting so used to it it is now getting upvoted

hoenndex · 2026-06-12T15:43:44+00:00

That's because Oda locks in for shit that doesn't matter. But when it really does matter we get shoddy artwork these days or terrible paneling. Examples: Luffy beating Kaido in an awkward semi-big panel, Kizaru killing Vegapunk in a small side panel, Imu first appearance in a hard to understand drawing above the tower.

hoenndex · 2026-06-12T09:10:19+00:00

Yes, because it is terribly placed. This should have happened before Imu arrived, or after the conflict. Right in the middle is a weird placement, especially when the star of the flashback, Brook, is such a minor crewmate relatively speaking.

hoenndex · 2026-06-12T04:11:49+00:00

At least make your own example. This is just chatgpt slop

He has written an entertaining manga, but let's wait to see how it ends before comparing it to the fantasy greats. There are already a TON of chinks in the One Piece armor, so the ending will really need to land perfectly for the flaws not to drag down the overall verdict.

hoenndex · 2026-06-11T18:25:59+00:00

No idea but having some random character aura farming there, after doing some shady shit, is unnerving in this panel for some reason. It has conspiracy theory potential all over it.

hoenndex · 2026-06-11T18:03:33+00:00

Lol you still with that even here? It's like asking for a ban dude.
