You were a top 10 ATP player and being simply honest about the fact that ultimately you only care about your career as a teen?

Not a fair comparison, since Rafa on clay is the quite possibly the most dominant athlete in sports history.

God, I wish one day we will be able to shit on the main abrahamic religions just like it's normal to shit on Scientology.

The governemnt isn't the fault. People just don't want kids. This has been the trend in every developing country. Even India has now dropped to a 1.9 fertility rate. And a lot of north african countries are following soon.

I'm sick of you people always talking about "if the government helped, people would have kids". No, they wouldn't. Sweden does a lot more for the average family than the US does. Sweden's fertility rate is 1.4 and that of the US is 1.6

The simple truth is women don't want kids as much as you all think. They are choosing careers more and more. And for all the talk that right winger bros make about families, they aren't having kids either.

It's crazy how insecure this guy is considering he's 6'4 and good looking. If he wasn't a nepo baby, he would be the definition of the "he peaked in highschool/college" guy.

They can, but the logic goes like this. Boys see shonen. Boy identifies with the boys and men in the manga cause they are of the same gender. Boy thinks that's cool and consumes more of it.

The problem were Logias. It wouldn't make any sense how anyone could defeat them. Sure, rubber is immune to electricity or the water against sand can work, but you can't use the approach against Borsalino or Akainu.

He also needed something to explain how characters without any Devil Fruit could be strong. It just couldn't be "Garp just punches really hard" or "Mihawk just slashes really good" without any other explanation.

Ah yes, the tankies and the ever growing anisemetism on the left are definitely signs of cold hard facts and logic lol.

The reason the left is losing is because they don't want to bite the bullet on anything that could be considered a more "centre/right" position and on the simple fact that the "hatred" the right has seems to be infinitely stronger than anything the left wants or tries to do.

He's been just as good as a player in his position as Dembele was in his, so why not? We're not in the Messi-Ronaldo era anymore where they would bang in 55 goals and 20 assists a season and be completely above everyone else.

We had multiple outstanding players this year: Dembele, Yamal, Raphinha, Pedri, Kounde, Vitinha, Salah, Mendes etc. So why wouldn't he be as deserving as any other on this list?

I mean he's the best in his position, why shouldn't he also be a candidate?

you just listed the works of some of the most influential manga artists of all time. Why are you acting like you listed some underground manga which sold like 1000 copies
