>Otherwise, a fight between two pregnant women could be seen as a mech fight. I mean, when you consider what pregnancy does to an expectant mother, hormonally, and the lengths to which some will go to protect their unborn child... It&#x2

Wing (and, by extension, 00) was a fine watch at 10, and G probably would have been, too. They're considerably less fraught in both iconography and philosophy than some of the other series, and quite a bit more hammy. The Build Fighter

Mecha fandom doesn't necessarily cross over with anime fandom (even though the former is arguably the origin of the latter). I find that there's more crossover with hobbyists (plastic models), military fandom, and gamers. Gundam i

These complaints are always funny to me, because the "viewpoint diversity" referred to is usually right-wing rhetoric which not only already has a voice in NYT, but also has several dedicated outlets that are elevated to "pap

To say nothing of waste, even when everything goes right. Nuclear is the grandaddy of instant gratification traps. Moment on the lips, hundreds of millennia on the hips. I think we can do better.

Always good to mention the property management cartel that's in cahoots with rental management software companies to price-fix and jack up rates for everyone ("allegedly"). People keep trying to rationalize the status quo wit

It sounds like a problem that punishing students for not showing up doesn't solve. Incentives (like pay for attendance) that help to alleviate some of the issues causing attendance problems (by your own words, poverty among them) seem

Which is why government should break their own scheme by building houses and selling them at-cost, or even subsidized (i.e., no-interest mortgage). I'll fully admit that I've been radicalized by an adulthood of housing insecurity,

Epic Games Store comes to mind, along with dozens of other smaller/defunct enterprises. There's a rumor that Gamestop is going to make one that's crypto-enabled somehow. The problems remain; ask anyone who's been banned

It's strange that Egyptian never took off in a similar way, considering that many Greek thinkers received at least some of their education there. Perhaps it was difficult to "port" for some reason (complexity, lack of proper

Between the sheer number of people getting axed in layoffs and the amount of, "Yeah I actually only do like 2 hours of work a day," boasts, it doesn't sound so farfetched. They're surely not doing something so technical

That's a bit of a leap. The argument is that the pain should be felt at the top as well as the bottom, as a function of the state of the company. The least execs could do is try to appear as if they're working to keep people'

For many of us slogging away in retail or made unemployable by "5 years of experience"-ism, those were a barrage of "let them eat cake" moments. The delta between that quality of life and the average Zoomlennial's (
