Yeah the primarchs do it, and it’s kinda weird. But they are inhuman monsters that have to serve as generals and politicians, so I forgive them.

When space Marines do it the it’s kinda like how priests refer to each other as brother, but also battle brother is a rank.

I think it is also there to make things seem more theatric/dramatic. Like just how many books start with a dramatis personae? We’re not reading about people, we’re reading about characters in a space opera. No matter how you look at it, it’s still pretty silly.

I’ve heard it called a luxury issue by some. As in an issue that privileged people take up because they already have the privilege of safety and order.

I mean yeah cops disproportionately target certain groups of people. Their training sucks and has the added bonus of making them trigger happy schizos who see crime and offence where it doesn’t exist. But also I think it’s pretty obvious that there needs to be some sort of law enforcement/peace keeping group.

Police reform? I can get behind that. Abolishing police? Sounds kinda dumb.

Yeah I think there’s a difference between having a smell and smelling bad. I’ve been told many times that I have a smell(musk) and that it’s different from when I smell bad. A female friend of mine has borrowed clothes and protective equipment from me. Rain jacket: smells like me, kneepads: smell really bad.

I strongly recommend being happy, one of the best feelings really. I’ve tried the other emotions and they just don’t feel the same. (But seriously I’m no fun when I’m depressed. People like being around happy people, it’s contagious)

Looks like how I feel after consuming milk products.

I’m in this picture (twice) and I don’t like it.

Been on and off Warframe since it launched (beta maybe), but it’s always like years between. I probably only have like 60 hours total. So whenever I come back I’m just as lost as when I started playing. Like oh, I have a ship now, oh there’s story now, you can fly! No wait it sucks, there’s an open world section!

I don’t have the time for Warframe now, but it could be fun to be confused with other people.

I can fix her

You know what I mean. Sorry my words weren’t good enough

The engineer guy on YouTube did an episode the engineering method explaining how ancient and medieval Masons built stuff without math. https://youtu.be/_ivqWN4L3zU?si=2N_iyZiBD8eDpltR

Though I am sure the Romans used plenty of math during the construction of many of their projects.

I seriously don’t know how Danger 5 didn’t get more popular, it’s one of my favorite shows

That’s why I bring the cute women mountain biking, and then they complain when we have to bike up a hill…

I really want to make a joke about C, but I’m not a very good programmer. Maybe:

“A magical tome that makes you feel insecure.”

You could just do steroids, then you could get ripped and lactate. Sounds like a win win to me

There’s some really obscure references in gintama, now maybe everyone in Japan is as well versed in old Japanese TV and cinema as Sorachi Hideaki? I think part of its appeal is it’s esoteric references though.

As far as the puns go, I’ll admit most fluent Japanese speakers understand them (I’m not fluent).

I don’t think anyone can be so familiar with the Japanese language and culture to fully understand gintama. It’s still amazing tho

I use a safety razor. Never had a nick and replacement blades are so cheap they may as well be free

Are you proposing we move from cottagecore to goblin core?

Been a decaf boi for a while now and I have no desire to go back. Just go all the way

Or that children are being sacrificed to them. Crucification was a state punishment, so maybe they are trying to say that governments are complicit in the crime? Maybe?

Or maybe that children are our saviors/future, but they are being sacrificed on the backs of these topical issues?

Art is hard.
