I get that wanting them to be removed for this reason might be weird, but I regularly play the game and I'm just so tired man...

Quote:Long story short my 2006 Ford Focus is dead and the cost to fix it would be around what I could have sold it for. I'd hoped it could have survived a bit longer as now is a terrible time to buy a car and I don't have much money, but I am car-less so it's got to be now.
I'm looking for recommendations: what to try to get, where to buy. I want a small hatchback, used or new, as cheap as I can get it. I want nothing fancy, I'd be happy to toss every bell and whistle out the door. I just want something solid and reliable.
Any help?

It's not that hard to understand.

Seems like a learning moment. Sorry it happened though.
Edit: Wait if this is just Yakuza shitposting then I'm kinda not a fan. At least tag it as Weekend Era or something. Not a fan of fake stories about people both being obnoxious tourists whilst also making me waste time caring about someone's wellbeing. This is in poor taste.

venture isn't a real person, similar to how non-binary isn't a real gender. so that "excuse" actually checks out.

The Global South rising up to defeat the expansionist NATO? The USA has bombed NK into the ground and now NK is going to bomb the US mercenaries in Ukraine? Something, something, Jews?
It's funny how night and day the Ukraine and Hamas Support threads are. Ridcully is joking but that would be a serious statement in the HamasEra thread that if anyone disagreed with would see a ban.

Daima also sounds to have a banger.
Despite not using the song, Dan Dan perfectly syncs with the Daima opening in a way that it can't be a coincidence.

:era
What exactly do they (multiple) want?
I don’t understand what the struggle is. People don’t care enough to discriminate. There isn’t even a slur.

This is a video game character it literally isn't a real person.
Blizzard really went with the checklist on that one.

What? Gran Autismos love Steven Universe, how can anyone not love a character a lot like but legally distinct from Steven Universe?
divorced from the non-binary retardation, I think venture has a pretty neat and cohesive character design
I think the only overwatch designs that are straight up shit are moira and sigma idk
Imagine if you didn’t get banned for posting ‘they’re stopping surgeries because the doctors think they make it worse not better’

Unsurprisingly none of them bothered to highlight this -
"Earlier this year NHS Lothian paused referrals for gender-affirming surgery undertaken outside Scotland. This was to enable a review of our assessment and referral processes to ensure they were supported by good clinical governance and to enhance patient safety."
So basically the NHS want to check where these patients are coming from. What procedures they've had and who carried them out.
Meanwhile -
Quote:We've been sending billions in aid... This has now become a quagmire that half of the USA doesn't support. Ukraine was on a path to peace but the west put them on the war path when Western officials urged Zelenskyy to tear up the minsk accords several years ago. Russia doesn't want anti ballistic missile systems on their borders to neutralize their defensive capabilites, and we just collectively said "fuck your feelings" and beat the war drum while waiting for Russia to make the first move.
No excuses for Putin for actually taking the bait, but make no mistake the west collectively set the stage for this conflict and has been acting fairly recklessly with its stifled support which has only elongated the conflict.
Now we are at a crossroads, and cooler heads are nowhere to be found. This ain't looking too good. Nuclear war is unlikely, but US boots on the ground and the resuming of the Korean-Russo war is just what the military industrial complex was looking for after Afghanistans "abrupt" end.
Meanwhile we sit here and cheer for our team while people are dying in the tens of thousands. Not that you and I can do fuck all about it.
