Finally continuing Fist of the North Star. Stalled out for a month or two but going for the finish now. About twenty-ish episodes to go. New opening is pretty cool. These Five Chariot Stars (along with the last South Star guy) I'd imagine are just fodder to hype up Raoh for the inevitable final battle with Kenshiro. Also I'll probably go through the manga after this as the art looks pretty damn good compared to the anime, which is often the case I guess.

Ah well, I fumbled my way through somehow. Next manga is probably gonna be Dragon Ball in French <_<

I actually bought a riichi mahjong book to try to learn the game, so I can play the minigames in Yakuza etc. Haven't read it yet.

I think they should absolutely try to finish it, even if they have no notes or minimal notes. Becomes a no brainer if they have detailed notes.

Only way I would say it shouldn't be done is if Miura explicitly said he doesn't want anyone else to finish it.

Yeah I think the general rule is don't antagonize or try to pull one over on the people you're supposed to be partied up and working together with, as its supposed to be a cooperative game. From the D&D stories I've read some DMs and players get annoyed when a player "has their own agenda" and tries to screw over their friends.

Most don't follow through, probably because it's a lot harder than they think, but those articles prove that they definitely tried.

A bunch of Americans also snuck in by claiming they were passing through on their way to Alaska too.

Probably just google searches out of curiosity/emotions running high after Trump won. I can guarantee that even if it were easier very few would follow through and do it. Growing up in the U.S. I've never met anyone with a serious ambition to move to Canada. Not saying absolutely nobody does it or wants to, but it's not common at all.

It's been a while since I've played them but IIRC for me the only Halo that actually had a completely coherent story was the first one.

The others all felt like I was missing out on crucial background info or something, especially once 343 took over. Maybe 2 and 3 weren't so bad on this front but I do remember it somewhat even with those.

Or even specific chairs? I'm in the market for one and don't mind paying more for quality. Looking for genuine leather, or at least something that doesn't use the type of faux leather that peels off.

The last chair I got had the surface peel off in a lot of spots, exposing some gray plush material underneath that left black stains on my shirts. The outer layer was really thin fake leather.

Covid is never going to go away. I'll never forgive people who made it so political and refused to take proper health precautions.

We had a terrible leader during the start who had a terrible ignorant attitude toward it, and said leader also has/had a weirdly devoted huge cult following who emulate, believe and defend everything he says. It was the perfect storm.

Trump is exactly who we did not need during this pandemic. Trumpers may have still had a shitty attitude toward it even without him, but he definitely made their behavior 100x worse.
