The other part that explains the move is that the move to full on being collectible with alt arts, serialized cards, etc, had a nuclear effect on how a lot of these shops used to make money. You can't keep a shop afloat catering to grinders when rares are less than a quarter for base art.

As an example, "why are you treating me like a felon?"

asked by a high school contemporary who was shocked I was not sympathetic when he looked to me for support after admitting to having flown across the country at 23 to have sex with a 16 year old, who then broke up with him.

My experience as a large, and not terribly good looking person, is people will tell me all of their terrible views and acts, on the suspicion I will be sympathetic.

I have cut off many people, and have had the "how do you know he wasn't just trolling" convo more than I want to count.

Maybe the base shape won't matter if it fits in the hex grid? I could also see changing the base shape so people stop trying to say it is Gundam Battletech, when they are clearly trying to do something different.

Increasingly, the Optimus and Megatron story. Those two draw their entire species into their intimate loathing.

I just wish they came with the hex bases the miniatures game they were designed for uses in all promotional photos.

Yep, this. My argument has been that the biggest hurdle towards long term peace is that everyone with a finger in the pie, except the Palestinians, perceives themselves as benefiting from the conflict continuing.

I kind of hope they change the epilouge where Naoto and Kanji are both like, "we are conforming to gender and social norms, but doing so for our own reasons."

My theater was fuller than expected, and you could see more people jump that you would normally see in a horror jumpscare scene.

I came in at 88. Got digned for reading books in public, and owning tote bags, most of which I got for free at nerd conventions.

My state has the California burrito, a burrito with fries in it. That said, our genius scientists working on stoner food have probably invented far more, just didn't name it all after the state.

Still sucked if you were stuck in a city fighting against them tho. You really wanted to accept their first surrender offer.

I was taught some stuff, in a Russian history class of all places, about how as the Mongols reached Eastern Europe, they were generally great for racial and religious minorities. "Surrender and pay us taxes instead, and we'll build new infrastructure, and won't do the systemic ethnic violence."

The Mahabharata section detailing the war, in many ways, is about how devastating this shift was. In one battle, they move from single champions to mass combat to night raids, and each escalation is seen as a tragedy.

Also a large immigrant population where Dragon Ball and Saint Seiya had done a lot of the groundwork a generation before the main anime push happened.

I maybe mistaken, but as another layer to this, I think the character in the art is modeled after a real twitch streamer/only fans lady, who had publicly called some of these creepers out.

Then, on the other hand, you have Street Fighter adding a story campaign in 6 to introduce you to multi-player.

Last time I spoke with a person outside a 7/11, he told me all about what local jurisdictions, if they arrested you on a Friday, would hold you over the weekend, and which would let you out on Saturday. Genuinely useful information I would not have encountered via normal means.

A close friend has a theory that the increases in obesity and adult adhd are also linked to smoking falling off a cliff. "Anyone else notice they both increased when it stopped being popular to consume an appetite suppressing stimulant socially?"

A bag you could add water to would make sense, like one of those drink powders in a bag that come in MREs. That is the kind of innovation I would reward kids for inventing.

Big bean is coming

Does this have anything to do with treatler theory? I notice a lot of acquaintences who go to China, and come back raving about it, are generally talking in terms of cheap goods and services. Like, everything they can to avoid saying they liked the feeling of having affordable serfs.

But pathfinder is just D&D 3.5 edition with a new wrapper.

I remember back when my local GW manager got in trouble for suggesting that they paint their learn to play models as Blood Ravens instead of Ultramarines because Dawn of War 1 was popular.

I am still processing my genuine shock that GW has figured out how to cash in on cross media hype.

I showed my 4 year old nephew G Gundam. Now my mom asks me what this "Shining Gundam" he keeps asking for is. I also showed him Gaogaigar.

according to the liberation newspaper, documents dating back to a 2014 inspection by the French National Agency for the Security of Computer Systems reported a staggering detail: "the password of the louvre's video surveillance server was simply " louvre. "

the password to the louvre surveillance server was "louvre"

I am going to jump on the train of he probably really doesn't want to publicly say he likes his wife.

The fact I can go to walmart, and buy a frozen bagged one sheet meal, that I literally just tear open, throw on a sheet pan, and bake for 4 meals for $10, really blows the accessibility argument out of the water.

I still think about the prequel, where when the first purge happens, everyone just had drug parties instead of killing, and the government had to deploy death squads to make people think their neighbors were going to kill them.
