Hilarious implication here that humans gain some kind of massive intelligence buff if you just stand them in the right place that they're genetically linked to on earth and get all fucked up if they don't

League had 17 characters initially when it launched (the beta was the launch I was there don't reply) and put out TWENTY THREE in the 6 months of the Beta for 40 at official launch and FOURTY THREE over the next year That is to say 2xKO has about 6 months to reach 20 characters (minimum viable)

Oh for sure but a good candidate both possesses and projects a coherent ideology (ideology in the sense voters understand not eggheads making definitions). That is you can look at any issue and know how say "Trumpism" responds to it.

This is all they could conjure, all the support of police, dark money right wing groups, multiple nationwide radio hosts, print media spruiking the rally ahead of time and all the years of building by them since 2020 and they're still small time. They'll never have the people.

I think it's more helpful to understand it as ideological, they'd rather lose and keep their ideology on top of the party than win with concessions on their ideology. Accusations of purity testing and such are as such projection.

He is wrong as well as lying about that, they also define wherever any fighting age man currently is as a military site. Further, nobody is using their children as shields against Israel or US bombers since that's literally never shielded them, at all, even a little.

Isaac Chotiner interviewed Biden's close friend and last ambassador to Israel, Jack Lew, and in the interview Jack Lew explicitly defends Israel killing children. Lew's defense of this is so offensive that Isaac Chotiner interrupts him twice and then says outright that he's wrong.

Ten car pileup: Yor is assigned to kill Loid, but never figures out who he is, just intercepts his missions. Loid struggles to hold their marriage together while staying alive; Yuri traces Yor's murders to their house but thinks it's Loid Eventually they realise cold war is no peace at all (theme!)

Australia post announced this too, they said they'd ship anything that could be tariff compliant but the problem is there's no form or way to pay them, turns out taxes require administration?

There was so much avenue for tension. Loid becoming more manipulative as time goes on (maybe turning her against her brother), Yor being tasked with more high profile kills, people they know, people Loids agency would prefer alive. Maybe they are both assigned to each others trails

It's real in my experience of the upper class set. They think their car will get vandalized if they park on a city street, they see graffiti and walk faster, generally uncomfortable between car and destination.

That promised a lot! And the drunken fight they have in the castle, should've foreshadowed them becoming enemies so they could then fall in love for real. The kayfabe should wear on them! They should be 2 sides of a cold war with Anya and Dog being the metaphorical innocent who suffers

I've not seen the end yet. What I mean is they are all brought together by the political circumstances and a better writer could've had that conflict and the romantic tension intertwine. Not expecting say Disco or Le Carre here but it just kept adding characters and aspired to say less than Bond

Was Sakamoto around for a long time before getting adapted? The sidekick loser guy feels like a carbon copy of the one from Househusband. As for One Punch as far as I'm concerned that was a completed work after 1 season.
Arcanineties (@arcanineties.bsky.social) reply parent
Really? Sakamoto lost me within 2 episodes, it just felt derivative, esp in the humour and the action felt neither stylish nor funny, it raised the power stakes way too fast. I wish this budget had gone to Way of the Househusband.
