if your concern was joker 2 would be capeshit then i can say pretty confidently that that's not very relevant to it. i think you should give it a try, i thought it was fine too.

never bet against icefrog

i don't know how best to describe it but valve's balancing and design philosophy is just fun, it doesn't have this sort of sanitised feel to it that say riot or blizzard have with their games where things have to be 'fair'

the og rfk was a zionist too lol

if ur online handle involves a cracker nationality

furr is a 2010s tankie meme, we shouldn't need him to defend stalin. i agree.

this sounds like a formalisation of the smogon shit which i don't think im opposed to but i havent played a pokemon since X & Y so yeah. i dont think there's any point being made here, just nintendo making ubers real would be funny

that sucks that i even guessed it

they try to teach te reo maori in new zealand primary schools but its half assed as fuck and it basically doesn't actually teach the language to the point where most people suggest the issue is trying to teach a 'dead' language rather than the fact that it's not given the resources it needs. at least schoolkids maybe learn some catchy songs? idk, that's just my observation from my daughter's education, i didn't experience it myself.

yeah the 'india is a british name' is mostly a chud talking point from what i've seen, though I don't think it's unreasonable to say that it has some colonial baggage to it. generally the way i've seen it is that chaddis (indian chuds, i think?) view 'india' as a thing for english speaking urban elites in comparison to down to earth hindi speaking rurals who say 'bharat'.

pretty much, this is what french tank designers went with during the cold war. Tiny shitboxes with paper thin armor and huge guns and engines and sometimes missiles. The french MBT also follows this trope as its the fastest mbt in service and hold multiple tankathlon shooting records

not a huge tank nerd but my impression is that the Leclerc is probably the best MBT platform in use by NATO militaries, the challenger and abrams are both overweight lemons and i don't think the leopard is that much better in that respect.

out of all the different ways to order dates americans somehow ended up on the least consistent, weirdest one possible and i infinitely resent them for making me double check dates 24/7 on the internet
