Democrats gutted my social services in the state I’m in. As did republicans. Fuck off, lib; blue-MAGA will cut them too.

Instead they’ll take the surplus money from budget cuts and send it to Ukraine and Israel.

"Compatible reality

Yes, yes, do leave and go to China. That’s where the money is porky.

(would they go to China in the 70s? Not sure where cheap manufacturing was being offshored too during the 70s)

Hey! That’s how I play Warhammer too! It’s worse when you want to play a xeno and the Tau models are the same price or even more for less models. Like fuck that.

Huh, the broken clock is right once a day I guess. Not for the right reasons anyways; personally the ban just doesn’t make sense. I say this because for the reason they banned Lotus and Crypt; plenty of others make the cut too for the same reasons. It’s the end result of a bunch of investor-ghouls running a third party rules committee that has “plausible” ties to Wizards so when shit like this happens Wizards can just shrug or keep it secret.

The Lotus ban didn’t make sense and as someone said; it’s likely to drive speculation in private interests. Mana Crypt didn’t make sense because there are far, far worse combos in terms of mana-ramping. Their excuse was they “didn’t want explosive turn-2 combos” and banned that when I can get a turn 1 voltaic key, turn 2 Sol Ring and have more mana without possibly losing 2 life from a coin-flip. Or using voltaic/manifold on mana vault and others like Basalt Monolith or Grim Monolith. Even if I don’t draw them first turn, I can just slap Trophy, Trinket, etc mages into the deck and guarantee them at some point.

Or using Krark Ironworks, Nuka Cola Machine and Manufacturer’s Academy for infinite life AND mana before turn 5.

Or banning Thassa’s Oracle. Plenty of cards that could make the cut under the same definitions and I have quite a few in mind. The One Ring is still around, which is broken in 1v1 games lmfao.

At the end of the day, while Vintage and Cube has it’s own fun; there’s a certain satisfaction walking into a LGS with a cheap Malcom, Pirate deck and blowing out 600+ dollar decks with my funny birdman. Collectors have always been a scourge and their massive money-drops don’t exactly help them get much farther if you know what you’re building. That’s why Vintage and Cube has it’s own fun though, you don’t need to be a super-duper deck master that can see every connection in your deck at once. It’s just good fun.

Honestly, after having six people agree with someone telling me they’re “indifferent to what happens to me” and completely misinterpret what I said into standing up for anti-maskers, I feel you. Kind of realization to put energy and feel a kinship with people who don’t feel the same.

Lurking on hexbear might be the better option for now, I guess.

That’s part of the point. We know COVID isn’t always “severe”. That’s what is insidious about it and any other disease that could follow.

edit: not always severe as in can cause long-term issues and other plethora of afflictions instead of death. Maiming instead of killing.

Exactly. Billionaires get the wall. Where you get to do with your hands.

“I’ve already had to watch it ravage my community. There’s people I knew that don’t come around anymore. Became agoraphobic. That’s not even talking the people that did die in my community, and their families still feel those holes to this day. Most of the people in my orbit, they survived-- but not a one came away without something permanent left behind. Brainfog, asthma-resembling hacking fits, compromised immune systems, the works. I wouldn’t feel so comfortable saying what I did to someone if I didn’t already know, down to the scars at the bottoms of my lungs, what this disease does to the people who are lucky enough to have survived it”

As did I.

“Way I see it, if you’re going to be as indifferent to death as to take up for anti-maskers”

The way I see it is that you’re staring at something as brutally indifferent and deadly as disease and are advocating it upon anti-maskers who will then infect others who may, even by chance, infect people who truly do mask or take preventative measures. Nowhere am I standing up for them.

“I’m going to be indifferent to what happens to you”

So quickly. A shame. I can’t say the same. Peace to you.

Who do they spread it too? Sure, their servants or their “dogs” if you want to say that. Who do they then spread it too? It is not like a nuclear weapon; or any weapon of mass devastation even chemical. It is actual, ultimate desolation that will kill far, far more than you want to.

It is not something to toy lightly with.

The West demands more blood. Only those who serve them are rewarded.

“Why doesn’t the Arab states help?”

You can’t extract more blood from a stone.

I do want to say, wishing COVID on someone isn’t cool. I’ve lost one of my best friends to that. You have lost more. I don’t wish COVID or any disease on my worst enemies. I view it in the same breath as “biological/chemical warfare” sort of thing. There is just indifference to death. There is a reflection there that I see that I wish to avoid.

What a shit-show that thread was. For some strange reason, the warped mind runs sickeningly deep in every corner of the culture of the west. The inherent need for blood in exchange for justice that was designed through every facet of our media, our art, our relationships with each other in an fierce individualism that demands “justification” for why a person themselves should change or adjust to the conditions around them.

A design to slaughter Native-Americans, to separate the sick, the poor, the different. To make a culture where even if there is no divide, to create one. It’s something that we all must fight every day. I wanted to ask, are you leaving? I appreciated your posts.

Like you could literally link the thread posting in that SAME EXACT subreddit of a dude going “Oh my GOSH i’ve been offered to monetize people’s personal mic data! Maybe…” and then the mod posts this shit. Either a complete paid goon or just an idiot.

The most dense people I think I know.

I see, that makes sense; considering how they were designed by the Emps. I guess to be more specific then; using the model of “oaths” and the feudal power-structure, which Legion would be most likely to use rogue-traders or interact with them?

And ayee thanks for responding.

https://lemmygrad.ml/post/5745381/5151816 Here is where I was explaining more why I was asking the question.

Indeed. Definitely sounds like it would be Fulgrim. Sadly, I don’t think I can use “heretical geneseed” in creating a successor chapter via rules in 10e from what I read.

Thank you! I was considering making my own successor chapter that was essentially “hoarders” or generally mercantile in a ruthless manner. This is all just a “sketch” of what I’m thinking so far. A chapter made during the 23rd founding; their purpose, they felt, was to reach for the stars and become as powerful as possible through the oaths, trades and tithes they had. To make the most of what they have, gamble on it in constant search for more power to serve the Emperor. I intended them to be especially focused on dealing with Rogue Traders. They will want to seek working with them; on their dangerous, foolish missions; in search of conquest and power in the lost stars that they can add to their own chapter.

The black rage would be an interesting twist to them. Mostly I ask because while I like how the Dark Angels play on tabletop; these don’t particularly strike me as Dark Angel successors. It’s nice to have a lore focused on the reality of it; to which you can work around that.

Also good to see you around, Belly_Beanis

“We have our own system, sweetie”

My favorite part of the dissonance is saying this kind of shit and we don’t even actually know how many or if Russia had lost any warheads (it’s theorized, but no official number exists) meanwhile America is like “WE’VE HAD QUITE A FEW “BROKEN ARROWS” HAHA”
