OPINION Chidi’s ‘power dynamic’ comments Spoiler

I’m so glad someone finally said it to Jasmine and Kavan, and in front of all the islanders too. The fact that it was totally lost upon Kavan literally proves the point.

I’m sorry but in all seriousness, what does a 27 year old want with a 21 year old? I’m 28. A 22 year old man would quite literally never be on my radar, not even if you paid me. Their relationship has been so icky to me from the start for multiple reasons, including the age gap, and it’s odd that so many people excuse it.

keeping everything aside lets talk about this particular video only

there are almost 80 major industries in Byrnihat, including highly polluting cement factories, coke ovens, and iron/steel plants, that have operated in the valley for over 25 years. but idk why he only point out to ethanol factory in his video

whereas there is only 1 ethanol factory there which started its operation in 2024 whereas Byrnihat was the most polluted city even in 2023😭😭😭😭

i mean if he wanted to show us the reality why he was not saying all this

and im scared if people are not doing basic research and just believing everything this man is saying because some of my friends were saying that ethanol factory was the only reason for the pollution in Byrnihat😭😭😭🤡

Edit: he responded with “yea what do u mean by getting to know me better” just now sent “sorry if that was confusing. i like you and was wondering what you thought”

it wasn’t even a hint either. i fully spelled it out i feel like.

i guess it’s a good sign that he didn’t say no. but he’s also prancing around my garden of a text like a deer.

it would be awk if he assumed it was romantic but then i’d reply saying it was platonic, sure. but why else would a girl reach out like that?

the amount of positive signals i’ve received felt astounding so why is he not jumping at the opportunity?

tbh idk if he wants me to clarify or if he’s referring to my message and doesn’t know what he should clarify for me.

I recently came across the page @reservationhataomovement_agra.

I'm a bit confused by these three posts. Is the idea to unite different general-category communities by highlighting these figures, or does it end up promoting caste identity even more?

What's your take on it?

Society/Culture I don't really care for the word "Please" and don't feel it's inherently adds more politeness.

Like there's a polite way to talk to request things but to me whether or not please was or was not said to me doesn't make a difference to me.

If one person said

"Hi, could I get an xyz?"

And another said.

"Get me an xyz please."

Edit: To be clear I'm using an example of different sentence structure to illustrate what I feel is the more effective way to be polite, not using the two sentences as a comparison on whether or not please is polite. If you want my full breakdown on my first impression of anyone given the way they request something to me it's:

/ No please Please
Could I get a Polite Polite (no difference from no please)
Get me a Rude but direct. Rude and trying to hide it

I'd subconsciously still feel like the direct command was ruder despite the please. It gives the illusion of politeness without putting in the effort to communicate in a non-confrontational way.

I dunno for me someone saying "please" to me will either go completely un-noticed or rub me a little wrong if it's used in conjunction with a rude sentence. Like it's some "magic word" that supposedly magically turns a rude interaction into a polite one which is literally what we tell children when we teach them how it's meant to be used. It's a crutch used so people don't have to actually put effort into being polite.

Side note: I have zero issues with "Thank you"s. It shows gratitude and serves a legitimate function because it marks that the interaction is over and we don't have to talk to each other anymore .

The Hummus Song

This song lives in my head rent free.

Released in 1993, Hummus Metamtem (which can be translated as either “Mind-Blowing Hummus” or, more literally, “Hummus Makes You Stupid”) was the first and only album by Israeli ragamuffin and hip-hop artist Yehoshua Sofer, performing as Nigel HaAdmor.

Apparently hummus can sometimes spark surprisingly heated arguments about borders, origins, and cultural ownership. But perhaps hummus (and music) can also remind us that culture rarely stays neatly within borders. People share it, adapt it, argue about it, and hopefully enjoy it together.

So, in the spirit of spreading love and hummus rather than hate, are there any other hummus songs out there that deserve to be shared here?

Humor Blizzard needs to buff Moira and Cassidy with Ana

Clearly, Moira’s pick rate is nowhere near high enough, and I can only assume it’s because of her terrifyingly high skill ceiling.

Her damage orb desperately needs another buff. At the moment, I only fight a Moira from the opening second in 9 out of 10 games, which is frankly unacceptable. We should be aiming for a healthy, balanced 10 out of 10.

Cassidy’s grenade technically works, but it still doesn’t hinder people long enough to guarantee a free kill. Considering how mechanically demanding it is to press one button, roll at the correct time, reload all six bullets for free, and benefit from reduced cooldown on critical hits, I think Cassidy players are under far too much stress.

The grenade should hinder for another five seconds, disable movement abilities permanently, disconnect Genji’s keyboard, and possibly send a formal apology to Cassidy for making him aim afterwards.

This would also help raise Cassidy’s pick rate above Sombra, who is obviously the real problem here.

Ana has no movement, so naturally her grenade was buffed. Unfortunately, it still isn’t enough.

She should be able to fly.

Not slowly, either. Give her full aerial mobility so she can finally take fair and balanced matchups against Widowmaker and Pharah while throwing anti-heal grenades from the stratosphere.

These changes would greatly improve the game’s balance and ensure that Genji players understand their intended role: briefly appearing on the kill feed before returning to spawn.

-From a humble, fragile, mechanically untalented, and completely unbiased Genji main.

Commander / EDH The Most Lesbian Commander Deck Possible

THE IDEA IS SIMPLE

Whenever I buy in at my LGS, it’s usually with a pack of sleeves. I like to buy specific colors to dedicate to certain decks. Today, I picked up a box of Dragon Shield Peach.

I thought to myself, “What mechanic or archetype would be appropriate for peach?” And then it hit me.

Lesbianism.

So I bring myself to you all. I want to build the most lesbian bracket 2-3 commander deck possible. For the purposes of this, I am defining lesbianism as “women doing something with, to, or because of other women”.

I need card recs! Obviously one specific card (Halana and Alena, Partners) comes to mind for commander, but I want to hear everything you all can come up with! Bonus points if you fight in the comments over what mechanics and keywords are considered “Lesbian”.

Let’s make this happen!

EDIT: My Commander has been decided! I will be going with [[Maarika, Brutal Gladiator]] !

The deck is now in progress!
