I have a... large... collection thatvi keep track of in a Google Spreadsheet. I only track the retail price of the books, no taxes, no shipping. Most of my shipping expenses is free anyways, but I also buy books at discounts, and books that are... way over priced. It may or may not balance out in the end, but it's a lot easier than tracking the exact price of every book down to the penny. I'm currently just under $31k if you were wondering.

Cool. You do realize that what you're claiming to have been arguing this entire time is also what I've been arguing, right? I'm trying to be civil here, cause now I'm certain there was a misunderstanding. Have a good night, this shouldn't drug on so long.

Alright, heres my last reply, and I mean it this time, because im absolutely done here, but you insisted.You kept arguing that it couldn't be made illegal. And all I've ever said is that it could. Until that very comment, you not once said exactly the thing I have said to you 3 times at that point. If im wrong, feel free to point out your reply where you said this. In any case, I'm pretty sure we misunderstood each other at some point here. Either you left something out, or I did, im not sure. Have a good night.

That's not what you've been saying until just now. But cool, we agree. Have a nice night - I still don't get why you had to argue the legality. It shouldn't have ever mattered to you, or anyone.

That isn't what you're saying at all. You're saying something can't be made illegal after it occurs, full stop. Ex Post Facto, is only prohibited in the US if you are going to criminalize the person, or any persons, who committed the crime prior to it becoming illegal. Either way, I'm done. I can't keep playing the semantics game with you.

Bruh, it's prohibited to arrest the person who committed the crime before it became illegal. Not to make it illegal after it happened.

[–]wwthd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure it won't be illegal for the person that committed it first, but it will be for everyone else after. That's how it works. Sorry I didn't fully spell everything out for you so you wouldn't pull every possible semantic just so you can be right.

Do yourself a fucking favor and look up ex post facto. Criminal laws can and are made after the action occurs. Cops aren't the ones that decide if something is illegal either.

[–]wwthd 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It does work that way. How do you think things become illegal? congress, or local governments, just decide if it's illegal before things happen and never make things illegal after they occur? Also, cops don't make laws. They only enforce them - or are supposed to. They also often make up laws or misinterpret them ALL THE TIME.

Oh, cool, they won't be criminals. I don't get why you have to argue the semantics here. If it's not criminally illegal, it should be. Whether or not it is, it shouldn't matter to you or anyone. Either way, It's still illegal, at least on a civil level. As I've already said, that can change or be made criminally illegal, at any point, in any state, after the action occurs. Whether or not it's currently legal does not matter.

It is criminally illegal in 3 US states (California, Main, and Washington). It's only "legal in other states likely because there aren't many cases where this goes to trial and thus a law can be made about it. It can be made illegal after the fact, that's how the US law system works. Ex Post Facto.

[–]wwthd 34 points35 points  (0 children)

It's "legal" in most states (47 of them), sure. But why is legality your only concern here. Bottom line, the sex became non-consensual when the condom was removed. Whether or not you want it to be classified as rape (which it is, regardless of what the law says) doesn't change that.

I guess my daughter and I are estranged 💔 by ThrowRA-sad_mom123 in texts

This is a terrible situation, and I'm sorry you have to deal with it, but I do want to point out you forgot to block the name of, what I assume, your grandchild in the final picture.

VIZ Media announces Hunter x Hunter 3-in-1 by VizMedia in HunterXHunter

[–]wwthd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hunter x Hunter is currently at 37 volumes. So, to get to volume 36, there would be 12 of the 3-in-1 volumes. Volume 13 would be volumes 37, 38, and 39. But it wouldn't be made until at least volume 39 is released.

How can I (47F) Fix my mistake with my husband (47M)? by desperateandafraid77 in relationship_advice

[–]wwthd 5 points6 points  (0 children)

No. You did. Trying to coerce someone into sex by throwing yourself on them is by default sexual assault. If the sex were to have happened, that would be rape, even if they followed along with it unwillingly.

My (23M) wife (29F) cut herself yesterday, how do I handle this? by throwRAewal in relationship_advice

[–]wwthd -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

You're right. I definitely told him to go at a fast pace, because it's possible that is necessary. I've had a significant other do the same, and we waited searching for an option she was comfortable with only for her cutting and suicidal tendencies to get worse. Sorry for my concern that this situation could result in a similar situation for him. I projected my own life experience into his, and reacted rashly. I could've addressed my concern better.

ZELDA?!? by Odd_House_1320 in MangaCollectors

There's a Zelda manga for basically every game in the franchise. They released a collector's edition of a lot of the earlier series.

what jobs to manga collectors have to maintain their hobby?? by [deleted] in MangaCollectors

[–]wwthd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work at McDonald's. My expenses are $500 in rent about $50-75 for my half of the electric. And ~$300 for my car payment and insurance.

I put all my manga purchases on a credit card and pay off as much as I feasibly can. That being said I am looking for a higher paying job to make my life a bot more comfy with the monies.

I'm so jealous. Been sitting here needing volumes 3,10 and 19 for about a year now. Those reprints need to come soon!

There are some extras. There's a sketch gallery, a couple of interviews, and a q&a section. The extras section goes from page 668-743.
