The Vikings are hte original zombies.

Dealing with my in-game crisis in Crusader Kings 3.

I think in a gaming context, if you were going to call something a kite, it would sound pretty different, but I take your point.

Given that one is a verb and the other is a noun, if you got tongue tied, based on the grammar, it would be pretty clear what the intent was.

I never said the guy was black, nor did the article. The article commented about the desirability of avoiding violent police officers, and that’s particularly true of those of us who aren’t white. But also of, ya know, fugitives.

Fwiw, Sweden’s murder rate of 1.14/100k is still almost 6 times higher than my native Japan’s 0.20/100k.

Particularly when applied to manga, this feels like a major overstatement. I’d say most Seinen manga do not feature gratuitous nudity or titubation. It’s actually more ubiquitous in the Shonen genre, which is what is more popular in the West.

Speaking as a POC who lived 2 years in central London, allow me to express my skepticism that racism with London cops is Russian propaganda.

Attorney here—this is not true If you own 100% of the company, you can give zero fucks about anybody and do pretty much as you like. If you own 99% - 51%, legal duties arise that open you up to minority shareholder lawsuits if you run the company like a fucknut.

Amazon’s rental library is pretty damn good.

I occasionally rent on Amazon. For example, if we’re doing a family xmas gathering (non-pandemic version) and there’s like 10-15 kids running around we need to keep occupied, paying $2.99 to rent “A Christmas Story” or something to put on for the kids is pretty cheap.

My parent’s taurus was similar.  I am convinced that the more a 90s Taurus was hated. the more resilient it became.

Totally off topic, but I’m really surprised at the huge gains in quality at Ford in the last 2 years or so.  I still will continue to by Hondas for the rest of my life barring anything unexpected with their quality.

Fighting Amalyssan, the end boss of the BG2: Throne of Bhaal was pretty memorable. If only because having played through BG1, BG2 Shadows of Amn, and ToB, I put like a good 800-900 hours into my characters before reaching the end boss, it definitely felt like a fitting titanic conclusion to a game I put a LOT of time…

Also note that Japan has under 1/26th the murder rate of the US, and is arguably a bigger gaming culture than the US.

Ari--If you don’t know what a demesne is, you need to have Luke show you around CK3, and you’ll learn what the difference is between a demesne and a domain.

It’ll be just you, and your AI controlled incestuous children, your sister/cousin/mother/wife, and your hunchbacked mistress.  Oh, and the black death, the mongols, or the vikings descending to your doorstep depending on era, but also AI controlled.
