    Covid 19/Coronavirus

    Received positive test results today. I've had very mild symptoms for about 8 days that seem to be subsiding. I felt the most normal today. When I wake up in the morning my lungs felt really weird for a few days and 2 days ago it was slightly difficult & painful to breathe. But after an hour...

    Anime/manga megathread

    Calling all Fate-hoes! Just watched episode "0" of The Case Files of Lord El-Melloi II on Crunchy roll. It's about Waver from Fate Zero! Pretty good so far and I'm pretty pumped for this. Notice the shirt waiver is wearing :D

    The attempt to destroy the nation state

    That was the OP, not me. I've already said how I feel about "racist until proven otherwise" Idk about him/her, but I personally don't see anything particularly wrong with someone who lives in a more or less culturally and ethnically homogenous society being concerned or even upset at the...

    Ghost BC

    It's beyond obvious in the majority of their catalog, hence the comparison to BOC :idk:

    Ghost BC

    Honestly, most people, IMO. To me, their selling point as far as songwriting goes is the juxtaposition of their Heavy/Doomy side against their Uplifting/childlike vibe. Both aspects are very far removed sonically from what most people actually listen to in the first place so most people won't...

    Anime/manga megathread

    I like it. I read that the manga is based on an actual Dungeons & Dragons campaign the writer took part in. It's very D&D-like. Also very obviously influenced by berserk.

    The attempt to destroy the nation state

    Well, you can't determine that without mind-reading. But I don't think the next best thing is to just assume racism... barring any "mitigating circumstances" :lol: I constantly see terms like "racist dogwhistle" and "alt-lite" being used by bloggers, journos, vloggers, etc, in order to lump...

    Anime/manga megathread

    Caught up with the Attack On Titan manga and GOTDAMN. I hope the show doesn't deviate too much from the manga for the next arc. I worry because unless I'm mistaken, was skipped over in Season 1, but becomes very relevant in the next arc. Planning on reading all of Berserk & My Hero Academia...

    The attempt to destroy the nation state

    Apples to Orangutans. Why would the United Nations try to coerce nations into agreeing to make it illegal to criticize mass immigration policies? Why do you think the US, Poland, Australia, would want to back put of the agreement? This is not unlike calling someone racist for being...
