I mean, the people of a bloodline are literal descendents of a specific person, while a family tree shows people who marry in as well.

The fact that you dont place value on knowing exactly how generically related you are to the person you wanna bang is fine, but to say its “made up” is stupid. Its made up in exactly the same way every part of human culture is made up.

Assuming something malicious is happening because a language is used when its not yours sounds exactly like xenophobia

Is it weird that I used to think the reverse? Alfie was Lily’s brother, and a nepo baby. I be damned if he didn’t earn it though. Also, my first thought was the woman who played “Asha” was not Lily Allen.

I honestly dont mean that its bad. From a technical standpoint, the work is quality. That said… Just what am I actually supposed to be looking at here? Mega Brock Lesnar Batman? If Bane donned the mask… Holy shit someone needs to write that story and get this guy to draw it.

Lol wtf is this cover art? Remember when liefeld couldn’t draw feet (and the love of pouches, cant forget that) and everyone made fun of him for 30 years? This is batman, an ostensibly normal human. The head is so small, the arms are beefier than beef. What are these proportions?

Ordinary claims!

Training

In all seriousness, its gonna depend. If it can survive minimal ventilation, throw a shoebox with some holes at it. You probably dont want it getting touched, but so long as its not, you’re prolly fine.

It does can but maybe no?

For the moment. You might say we are.losing the battle. Wouldn’t come close to saying we are losing the war though.

Nazis aren’t interested in what communists have to say. A communist, for the record, is anyone a Nazi disagrees with. The only acceptable place for a communist, according to a nazi, is in the ground. If you want to let Nazis come for you, I guess that’s fine for you. When Nazis co.e for your loved ones and you Stans there like a fucking coward and let them take them because “much precious nonviolence” I guess that’s your call.

Libertarian ideology at work. “Fuck you, I have money” or “I dont want poor gay or black people dying in the streets cause they are black or gay. I want them dying in the streets cause they’re poor.”

That’d work, but Sagan opted for portable fax.

Or, and hear me out, you could say “portable fax” and be done with it. YOU are making it complicated by not being culturally acclimated to the timeframe when it was written. Everyone knew what faxes were, no explanation was necessary.

Portable fax: thing that sends and receives messages

Portable Fax IS how you describe SMS in the 80s.

I dont mean that your understanding is unimportant, but that you inherently understand what’s being described to a degree that to hear it described differently than you expect you reject what you hear in favor of assuming the folks in the 80s needed more than “portable fax” to understand what you are on about.

How would you describe SMS to people in the 80s?

Read depot as despot and was like “now that’s an escalation!”

I love me some IPA, right up till you start adding adjectives… Hazy? Juicy? New England? West coast? No. Beer, hops, yum. Get the rest of that nonsense out of here. As a home brewer I refuse to get my Adjective IPA palate.
