Yeah the article specifically says "weaponizing" meaning that they weren't weapons when they were made. So not as bad as the comic makes it out to be. However, why are you selling to Israeli military companies, Mr. Xi?
And the further along you get the more of those jobs you replace with Elder/Mother/Auntie
this is a great analogy. But, I might do +5 Social Pressure Resistance/ -5 Social intuition instead. For me the hardest part about being on the spectrum is how different my social needs are and how differently I explain or express things. I have low social energy because I'm constantly translating between a ND brain and a NT world. Or because I'm trying to decide how many things I should do that feel unimportant or inauthentic to me in order to maintain a relationship.
Probably a bigger wealth gap than in 1200. Peasants in those days actually owned land. Nowadays everyone is either renting from a landlord or paying mortgages to a bank. Old kings couldn't dream of the level of extraction that exists today.
Sounds like she's withholding her endorsement to use it as a bargaining chip to move him right. We'll see how hard he gets hit by the media, and potentially unions and other institutions. It looks like there will be two independents, running Cuomo and some guy walden. I'm assuming they'll pull more voters from the dems than the gop, but we'll see.
In the few times when candidates like this have won primaries, they have gotten smothered in the general elections. I have no idea how much pressure or danger he is under.
From he supports violence against jews to he hurts zionist feelings in a few minutes. Pathetic, spineless, hateful nonsense

The Nazi belief that if you don't approve of our genocide it must mean you want to genocide us.
No we cannot just stop doing genocide its clearly us or them! People of different religions or ethnicities can never live together!
I pay my grad students with thank you letters!
I think this is depicting the bombing as bringing peace

Should've known from the light novel ass title 
12 hours ago I slipped backwards while descending stairs and whacked my elbow. All my weight and leverage from my 6'4 frame landed square on my funny bone. Immediatly I was shaken up and my pinky went numb. I looked and saw a dark red streak on the tip that wasnt there before. Presumably from broken blood vessels. Currently the pinky is half covered my a massive bruise and it hurts.
Im still not feeling super well. I have a high pain tolerance and normally shrug off life's little knocks. But something about that Ulnar nerve getting 
really messed with me.
Kinda concerned because I cant find any similar cases online. I saw a doctor on campus and she said not to worry but I'm also wary of doctors since transitioning. I dont get the same standard of care that I did before.

All they do is ask for donations. They don't try to tell you what great policy they have, they just expect me to fork over cash. I hate how little American elections care about policy. I hate how the dems feel like they are owed my vote.
I have to declare a major when I apply so I'm a little stressed about it.
I'd probably go literature or philosophy for the librarian track. And psychology for the art therapist track. I think I'd way more enjoy doing lit/phil for undergrad, but I think where I end up after matters more. I doubt many art therapy programs would want a lit/phil major.
I like the idea of being an art therapist as someone with a great deal of gender and gay. And it seems like a very vibes based profession which works for me. But if I was a librarian I'd probably read a lot more and that would make me happy. Plus maybe I could organize queer reading groups or something.
I'm curious if any of you have experience with either of those fields. Or just anything to add/offer.
If anyone is worried about the trailer, don't. This is what it actually looks like in game. The photos are of:
Minrathous, capital of tevinter
Grand necropolis, Nevarra City
Minrathous Tavern
Grand necropolis, Nevarra City
Taash, Dragon Hunter and Lord of Fortune (Rivainian treasure hunters) - Rook, Protagonist - Neve, Detective and Shadow Dragon (Tevinter anti-slavery organization)
No I will not stop posting

I enjoy both but its really cemented why I love dragon age so much more.
These are story based games set in worlds created entirely for these games. Its common to have discussion about how different story events could have gone differently, or what will happen in universe after the events of the most recent installment. Obviously, how these worlds are set up and how the story is told effects the discussions a lot.
In mass effect society spreads across the galaxy and encompasses trillions of individuals across thousands of planets. Despite that, the major story beats hinge on how you treated individual characters, or whether they are alive or not. Like whether an artificial plague causing 99% of krogan pregnancies to miscarry is justified is completely down to whether the good leader is in charge.
Despite trillions of individuals and complex economics all major conflict boils down to species versus species. All krogan, all asari, all turians are just like that so of course this has happened. There are hints in game that there are many different cultures within each species but we get very little evidence of that, and almost entirely in the 3rd game. Krogan (giant toad people with natural armor, anger issues, and a love of violence) are shown to be maybe not inherently violent individuals that care a bit about others, but thats mostly it. We get one pretty butch Asari (otherwise all feminine species).
So when the community talks about these things its always on individualist or species based terms. It is almost impossible to do materialist analysis because of how the games are made. When the community talks about the game arguments are more heated and personal. There are lots more gotcha type lines than in the dragon age community. I suspect this hostile dynamic could contribute to why there are obviously way more women and queer people in the dragon age community.
Mass effect's story is also about exceptional individuals overcoming impossible odds, which lands way better with men, in general, than women, in general.
In the dragon age community discussions revolve around things like, how does the church use drugs to control their private army? How will giving the dwarves a tool that enables them to put their souls into tanks effect their society? How do independent kingdoms respond to a paramilitary organization run by a prophet encroaching on their land?
Mass effect discussions are, "do the volus deserve a council seat?" Instead of, "How could the Volus get a council seat?" or, "How will the volus having a council seat change existing power dynamics?"
Dragon age stories are, "how does magical talent being both random and dangerous effect society?" "Is it worth it to consort with demons to gain power?" Mass effect stories are, "oo ouch owie my magic gives me migraines." (I like Kaiden don't @ me, the whole child soldier bit both games have is nice)
There are other differences too, like dragon age having braver character writing that scares away some of the chuds. Most people on the dragon age subreddit don't like Vivienne, but understand how her inclusion makes the game better. That kind of subelty doesn't exist in mass effect discussions because the game literally wasn't designed for that level of depth. All characters that are apart of your "squad" are meant to be likeable or at least the kind of person their players would respect. Dragon age release characters also in your "squad" like Sera and Vivienne knowing that tons of their players will hate them.
In summary, mass effect is lacking a pair, let alone a quad. (krogan have 4 testicles) (Please laugh I mentioned testicles)
This is underselling ME3 a bit, it was relatively anti-gamer for its time. ME1 and 2 get the 
tho. Even though I like them anyway.
Edit: how could I forget Dragon age has literally actually good trans representation. Theres a FtM guy whos literally just the coolest fighty bro and his dudes respect him.
"So If I grew up under the Qun they'd treat me like a real man?" "You ARE a real man Krem."
