Look I never said it would be a good bomb, good enough to blow your hands off though

Rigging a reliable detonator is always the hard part.

Any idiot can make a bomb. Not any idiot can make a bomb that blows up their target and not themselves

Everyone's story comes to an end eventually. Heroes pass into legend and shape the lives of future generations who become heroes unto themselves.

Plus with regards to Stormlight. Give Kaladin a break, homie has been through enough. At the end of Mistborn I definitely found myself going "I think they've earned a retirement"

Pretty much. That's how Mistborn worked, 300 year time skip and honestly don't really need to read era 1 to get era 2 besides some terminology stuff

And apparently if you lock him in his house for a year he'll write 5 extras

Four are out. The next one is the end of era 1 so will be an enclosed story.

The guy who actively apologizes for his shortcomings in portrayals of people who are basically never portrayed turning out to be awful would be the shock of a lifetime to me.

Shout out to the king of the Reshi people

Homey legit decided to identify as an attack helicopter. Damn, transphobes blown out.

That's uhhh... A pretty myopic outlook. Young people look for direction and will always get it from somewhere. Just gotta make sure to elevate the voices that help rather than harm. Telling young people to "just figure it out" is hardly advice.

The #1 influencer for the young man demographic has been Andrew Tate for plural years now. Our structures of socialization actively push aggressive domineering hyper-individualist personality traits as paragons of masculinity. This has been a thing for decades.

We desperately need good role models

A standoff seems like the result of an impulsive decision to me. A standoff has no real viable endgame so it's a result of a lack of planning. At least that's how my logic sees it

I think the gut reaction to blame the murdered woman is the thing to be disgusted at here.

Who are the ones doing the murdering though?

Like ignoring how tasteless your comment is it also neglects that men are responsible for the most physical damage in cases of domestic violence. So before you come onto a thread to just throw a woman's fears back at her I'd consider the sand on which you build your house.

Sweden had a sterilization clause for gender transition until 2013. I'm not exactly sure that's as big a slam dunk as you're pretending.

I mean like... Mosquito nets in Africa (although malaria is less of an issue) because they're cheap and there wasn't bureaucracy preventing the help. or helping dig wells in those places.

There's lots of places to donate to that will alleviate human suffering more efficiently than donating towards regimes that will obviously steal the money to enrich themselves.

Unfortunately, we can't help everyone, so we reach the ones who are closest or easiest to lend a hand to.

Listen matey, I know a dead rabbit when I see one and I'm looking at one right now!

It doesn't save money though, people produce more in value than they take on average. That's kind of how productivity works.

Well you see I'm an illiterate moron who can't read titles of posts

He could've cut out the 200 pages about the Napoleonic War.

Or perhaps they find a hormone that can provoke growth of new cells. Or something else. Hence why it's research and not a product yet

I mean isn't the idea of researching fertility options later in life to reduce the likelihood of those problems?

I'm happy you've never had to deal with lawyers before.

Very few people have the money to push a SLAPP lawsuit

It's a fun party trick, makes you absolutely baller at running tabletop rpgs too.
