| Xeybozn 09/03/20 2:45:46 PM #356 | banananor posted... > It's not like the Democrats have done much more for them on economic issues than the Republicans have for the last few decades The ACA is the only big exception since the '60s, but it's not a great proof of how much better the Democrats are. Health care is still ridiculously expensive, and the improvements we got took a once-in-a-generation supermajority that accomplished nothing else (except for bailing out the rich people who blew up the economy, of course). But anyway, doing one thing for the poor isn't enough to overshadow everything they've done that ended up hurting the poor. --- Congrats to 2020 GotD Guru champ azuarc! |

| Xeybozn 09/03/20 2:27:04 PM #348 | DoomTheGyarados posted... Point of order this has been helped along by a democratic party who often don't prioritize the interest of the people either. Feels like education and less military could have been accomplished at some point! This is why I don't get liberals who complain that "lower-class white people are being tricked into voting against their interests". It's not like the Democrats have done much more for them on economic issues than the Republicans have for the last few decades. Seems perfectly logical to vote purely on social issues if that's the only thing your vote can change. --- Congrats to 2020 GotD Guru champ azuarc! |

I'm not really sure what exactly would be considered the main plot of the series, but I'd lean towards it not being finished. --- Congrats to 2020 GotD Guru champ azuarc! |
| Topic | Haruhi Suzumiya is BACK |
| Xeybozn 08/31/20 6:17:54 PM #10 | UshiromiyaEva posted... Wasn't the whole issue that fans found out her VA had sex once, so due to industry law Haruhi is never allowed to have an anime again? Nah, Aya Hirano's still had voice acting jobs after that, including coming back and voicing Haruhi. The real reason we'll never get season 3 is because the higher-ups at KyoAni who might have pushed Kadokawa to let them make more all left the studio several years ago. --- Congrats to 2020 GotD Guru champ azuarc! |

| Xeybozn 08/31/20 5:21:45 PM #134 | Yeah, over the next decade the Dems are probably going to lose MN/WI/MI/PA for good but gain AZ/TX. It's basically a wash as far as the Electoral College goes, but it'll make it even harder to get a Senate majority. Plus the Midwest states look like they'll flip before the Southwest ones, so the near future post-2020 looks pretty bad for the Democrats. As for Georgia, I'm not really convinced that it's going to become a solid blue state instead of a slightly red-leaning swing state like Florida and North Carolina. --- Congrats to 2020 GotD Guru champ azuarc! |
| Topic | King of Fighters 2020 (NOT MERCS) R2D11: Sera Himeura vs DEATH (High) |
| Xeybozn 08/31/20 3:50:07 PM #20 | OK, found this reading Wikipedia's page on Death. Under normal circumstances, only those of a magical disposition (e.g. witches and wizards), children, and cats can see him, or allow themselves to see him. Due to his eternal nature, Death can ignore such things as walls and magic spells; he exists throughout all time, so things lasting merely centuries are not as real as he is. He can adjust time with regard to himself and others near him, completing tasks very rapidly from a normal perspective. I'm not really familiar with either character, but would Sera even be capable of seeing Death? Seems like Death could win this easily by literally just waiting around. --- Congrats to 2020 GotD Guru champ azuarc! |

Oh, and Death wins today's match. --- Congrats to 2020 GotD Guru champ azuarc! |

| Xeybozn 08/21/20 5:04:06 PM #23 | I don't think the Republicans care much about the actual effects of blocking mail-in voting. It's more about having an excuse to question the legitimacy of the results if they lose. Well, I guess Trump might genuinely think it'll help him win a larger vote share, but that's just because he's an idiot. --- Congrats to 2020 GotD Guru champ azuarc! |

I ended up voting T-Rex because while Sheldon is obviously more intelligent, he also has no fighting skills at all so it wouldn't matter. Unfortunately for the T-Rex, Sam Fisher also won't have trouble outsmarting an animal and even has enough combat experience to win without much trouble. --- Congrats to 2020 GotD Guru champ azuarc! |

| Xeybozn 08/19/20 8:24:28 PM #33 | TheRock1525 posted... It's why I have several conservative friends that I don't run to with every Donald Trump quote to insist that they agree with it. Yes, we debate Universal Health Care. We debate the role of police in society. We debate taxes. And those are debates on merit. But when one of them tells me they regret voting for Trump, I'm not going to throw it in their face and insist "You haven't changed!" The ability to make a mistake and both acknowledge and remedy it is a good characteristic and shouldn't be throw back into people's faces. This sort of makes sense, but I'd say there's a big difference between your friends and career Republicans. The latter group had more reasons to see this coming and more power to prevent it. It's good that they've changed their minds now, but that shouldn't mean we can't criticize them for making this possible in the first place. --- Congrats to 2020 GotD Guru champ azuarc! |

We'd still be better off because you center-left people would have to actually work with us instead of demanding we vote with you 100% of the time because the alternative is fascism. I mean whenever there has to be 'compromise' it's the left that always has to be the one compromising. Under a different system, at least the center-left would have to learn to compromise themselves. Wouldn't it still make more sense for the center-left to work with the right? If the GOP doesn't splinter into multiple parties, they'll always have enough power to block anything the left wants anyway. If the GOP does split up somehow, the center-left can just work with the new not-fascist right-wing party for the old pro-business consensus stuff that they both want. --- Congrats to 2020 GotD Guru champ azuarc! |

| Xeybozn 08/14/20 3:27:32 PM #36 | Anagram posted... I can imagine Netflix not wanting to film potentially 3+ seasons where the characters start out 12, given how there can be years between seasons. I don't really see how this would be a huge problem. There's no particular reason the basic plot can't take place over a long enough time period for aging to make sense, and it'd be easy enough to add timeskips between seasons to justify the obvious differences there. --- Congrats to 2020 GotD Guru champ azuarc! |

| Xeybozn 08/13/20 5:21:13 PM #7 | Let's assume Big Rig glitches are canon feats for Thunderbull. Is there any evidence that Thunderbull could hit Ocelot? Presumably the lack of any collision detection is also canon, and since the fighters can't interact with each other the match would end in a draw. But if Thunderbull is capable of hitting things, then the ridiculous speed feats are also meaningless as it won't be able to build up that much speed without crashing. Seems like if this match is an actual fight, it'll be an easy win for Ocelot. --- Congrats to 2020 GotD Guru champ azuarc! |
