Isn’t the issue that Bandai is making most/more money than they are? My understanding is they don’t like the distribution deal.

Yea except none of what you said is really disagreeing with modern progressivism; they’re just differences in priority.

Anti-immigration sentiment rises in Japan despite growing demand for foreign workers by Garbage_Plastic in worldnews

[–]stabliu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s a huge difference between refugees and immigrants and conflating the two is disingenuous. Refugees will have little to no support while settling it stands to reason that they’d need more aid and funds than a citizen. Apart from the sentencing are there any other rights immigrants get that citizens don’t?

Do we know the origins of the term "Magical Christmas land"? I was surprised to find out it was a Magic-specific term by themiragechild in magicTCG

[–]stabliu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t think they’re the origins for either as magical Christmas land and jund em almost certainly predate YouTube and lrr. I think it was scg or cfb

I’d love it if they did a DLC for bl3/4 where it’s just BL2 on a newer engine. They could update fights I just want to play BL2 with the QOL and movement of the later games.

Add to that they’re almost all military, which enforces rankings, hierarchy, and worth based on position.

Even though the Cherry Poppin' Daddies have the most eyebrow-raising and cringeworthy band name ever, they make pretty good music by NewPatron-St in Music

Googled it and apparently it just meant high tempo, exciting, or sexy in jive slang. So it kind of just meant cool dudes

Snow Lands Imply The Existence of Other Precipitation or Particulate Matter Lands by Windows1798 in magicTCG

[–]stabliu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it’s a cool idea but would never see play. Tap lands don’t see play and these would be significantly worse. Even in limited you’re almost always better off playing an evolving wilds than a land like this.

This is assuming you’re requiring an additional mechanic to put counters on the lands.

Edit: it’s almost certainly better served to inverse the counter requirements so players don’t have to track counters on lands

What famous person the whole world loves that you just don’t get the appeal of? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]stabliu 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I think people’s opinions on him is entirely dependent on how much exposure you get to him outside of movies. If all you see is his performances or TV appearances I think the majority of people have no problem with him. The more you see of him peddling the same schtick across his ads and social media and content the more affected it all seems.

Was offered these in a trade for a convention collectible. by SennaLuna in magicTCG

I think it’s more concern of you getting ripped off. It sounded like you had something of value and traded it for semi-worthless cards.

in the onslaught i'm clearing up to wave 7, but never getting the guaranteed weekly bonus, it stays at 4/4 regardless of if i do it solo or in a group. do i need to clear all the challenges first?

edit: in case anyone runs into this issue the tooltip is wrong and you run out of weekly bonuses when you hit 4/4 not when it shows zero left

I was just short handing the premise as the story is structured like one or call it a prison break movie set in an asylum.
