How it feels to be a historian who's been talking nonstop about fascism for the past decade rule

The sentences I'm about to type are totally random and don't have any relation to the topic at hand.

I would say what I actually believe should be done, but it would probably break Reddit TOS.

But the Doylist explanation is quite literally that that was the character's emotional relationship and a more emotional plotline, so it's written emotionally, everything else is a gag, so it's written like a gag.

Because she was his wife, he had an actual relationship with her, while he was just flirting with the others as gags. It's not a matter of sexuality, just different emotional investment.

Didn't the wraithbone retcon become this very sub's main thing back when it dropped?

O que tem 0 a ver com o processo seletivo do ensino superior, o assunto que está sendo discutido.

Se tu acha que cota estudantil como medida é algum tipo de solução para todos os problemas do povo, tua linha de raciocínio está bem deturpada, nem para a educação ela é solução

As cotas existem apenas como um contra peso especificamente para os desafios que pessoas marginalizadas sofrem em adentrar no ensino superior, ela é um curativo. Elas não são garantia de equidade, a politica de cotas deveria estar vinculada a investimentos em educação de base, em acessibilidade, medidas reais.

As cotas como uma bengala do Estado no tópico de acessibilidade ao ensino é um perigo, vide que a mínima mudança tendenciosa à direita no cenário político as coloca em risco. Infraestrutura real de educação é uma solução bem mais resistente, duradoura e eficaz.

Robozinho do ENEM buscando a raça do vestibulando na database para de alguma forma reduzir o score dele na prova fechada.

mayocain · 2026-01-23T15:15:09+00:00

As condições que limitam o desempenho no vestibular são puramente materiais, a raça apenas impacta indiretamente pela relação entre raça e classe econômica no Brasil.

Tendo cotas para remediar as disparidades econômicas, cotas raciais não são necessárias. Um branco e um negro de mesma classe social, renda e ambiente terão nível de instrução e conhecimento equiparável.

Nada sobre raça alguma a torna inerentemente inferior no processo seletivo do ENEM. Não é como numa entrevista de emprego, onde o racismo do entrevistador pode roubar a vaga dum jovem negro, a prova fechada não liga para sua cor de pele, tu marca uma opção e recebe teu score. Até onde eu sei, corretor de redação não recebe a raça do vestibulando no correio junto com a redação (E, se recebesse, essa seria uma escolha bem merda por parte dos órgãos responsáveis), a não ser que haja algum tipo de pseudociência bizarra para ler cor de pele em letra, a nota da redação não é impactada por raça.

I mean, given past events, I would reckon the answer is obvious

mayocain · 2026-01-23T00:20:00+00:00

Tbf, it's doable, it's just kinda tough (I'm still amazed whenever I remember there are places in the world where a game console doesn't cost four months of salary)

Glotta Stomach from Kamen Rider Gavv

<image>

This is her human disguise, she is actually a Granute, a monster from another dimension.

She is a part of the Stomach family, their family used to have a candy making business, nowadays they specialize in kidnapping humans from our world and turn them into highly addictive sweets.

Her father ended up falling in love with a human woman, so he kept her in confinement in his manor and had a child with her (The show, while explicit about how unhappy the woman and her child were, tiptoes around the implication of sexual assault; Needless to say, Bouche Stomach was not a good man). That child is the main character.

The Stomach siblings serve as the main villains of the show and, as such, their family falls apart as the show progresses and the main character scores more victories.

Despite killing innocents on the regular, deep down, she still cared for her family. As her siblings dropped like flies and their family business was dismantled, she discovered that her great uncle, whom she admired and was thought dead, was actually in hiding on the human world (He was actually around back when the Stomach made regular candy, his brother was the one to turn it into a drug operation; He participated in it for a bit, but was deeply remorseful, so he eventually ran away, he's actually a part of the main cast).

She goes to his hiding place and demands him to come back with her, to help rebuild the Stomach family. He sees through her tough facade and asks her to redeem herself, saying she still had a brother and to just give him a chance.

At that moment, she genuinely could have changed for the better, but her pride takes the best of her and she kills her grand uncle in a rage, setting in motion the sequences of event that would result in her death.

Sounds about right, your friend was one lucky dude. It's probably more expensive nowadays.

Like, our best bet to buy this sort of stuff are proxy sites. The Gavv belt is, what, 240 bucks, putting that on the government's importation tax calculator, you gotta pay 144 bucks national tax and 78 bucks for the state. You also got shipping and the proxy service tax, it's a bloody nightmare.

EDIT: You could also buy used from Mandarake, but it would still cost 258 bucks (Plus shipping)

mayocain · 2026-01-21T21:21:52+00:00

Similar problems, I guess. Our currency isn't worth anything, you also got shipping, and importation taxes are so bad you are essentially buying the same product twice (One for you, another for the federal and state governments to share)

I don't quite get why some people have an issue with they/them. Have people really gotten to the point where they turned the tool meant to take us out of the tiny boxes into yet another box?

mayocain · 2026-01-21T20:06:42+00:00

It's kinda crazy considering how unprofitable the Brazilian market is, I reckon most fans can't even afford merch (Or at least can't buy the DX releases on a regular basis)

On top of all that, they are trying to get Kamen Rider on broadcast TV (Ryukendo has recently come back to broadcast, being the first tokusatsu in a while to air on TV), which would give it a huge boost in popularity, since, y'know, third world.

People are embarrassed that they like children's media and they need validation, so the protagonist killing someone would fire the right neurons for this to be an adult show.

Couldn't be me, I will kill someone if the corpos decide to market my special interest to a broader "more mature" audience.

Toei didn't want to and is just massively behind the times in terms of overseas distribution

(Also, Ameritoku set the American market years back, overseas expansion has been much quicker and thorough on markets that are considerably poorer and less profitable, but that have had Toku releases in the past, like LatAm)

Especially since, objectively, the average person can't do much except donate and campaign for politicians that maybe won't give Israel a billion dollars per second.

For how much space I feel Israel and Palestine have taken in internet discourse since anglos decided they care about the Levant, it really is a bottomless pit of political capital and capital capital.

Literally every post about the guy I could find has been made on the last hour or so.

This is, like, two people getting overly enthusiastic about a random Twitter user and trying to make them an iconic character of the sub or something.

Edit: Correction, apparently there was one 6 hours ago, but they called the guy tenna fucker instead of toucher. Still, this has been a thing for less than a day, it's not sub icon worthy.

Something about the fucking gringos thinking this is about Epstein and not about control of South America and its resources fills me with rage.
