This is why they didn't teach us our 30 human rights; they now can play the shell game with us.

Educate yourself as much as possible

The State Department is changing its mind about what it calls human rights

The agency's annual human rights reports are being purged of references to prison conditions, political corruption and other abuses.

The US right now:

My view on politics:

1. Trust no one wearing a suit. They're more interested in keeping their external image than doing what they're in the position to do. If they were for us they'd look like us

2. Until you have people from the thing you're governing inside the building to give their input, you're disconnected from them. (E.g. gun owners for gun laws, women for laws about women, LGBT+ for laws regarding LGBT+, etc)

3. Have professionals in the proper seats; someone in the military be in that department, environmental expert in said department, etc. They know more about that field than you do, so listen to them.

4. If 1,2, and 3 aren't met, I'm voting for a Labrador Retriever 9/10 times.

Have "we the people" be for **We the People** not we the rich; they can do all the money exchanges; just shut up and let us have control of us for a change. Else, we can pull a France, and.... we all know how that went.

In American idiot by Green Day, is it:

"Everything dementedly okay" or "Nothing's meant to be okay", or is it "everything's not meant to be okay?" Because I've always heard the former until someone did a cover, and they said the latter.

They're equally fucked up and fitting.

I doubt AI can compare to the years of madness that a writer can go through for the sake of a series.

My universe has permanently altered the way I spend my free time. I've done drawings of just about every character and have plans drawn for every unique item with such detail that I can pick it up years later and build it with much thought.

AI can not imitate that level of devotion to something that's was thought up almost a decade ago.

Abrahamic religions can be compared to a grilled cheese sandwich:

Is it cut diagonal, horizontal, or vertical?

Why argue when it's the same sandwich

It dawned on my why in "historical/medevial" movies, nothing is what it should be, be it the armor of that time, the outfits of that decade (yes, they changed that quickly), the architecture isn't of the time period, or even the accent is incorrect

Either:

A) The people behind it don't care that much

B) The items would be too expensive to produce. Just look at Henry VIII's armor; that stuff is stupid, complicated, and fancy... wait, LOTR has crews slave away at chainmail, which is very time-consuming and can get very complicated

C) You'll never tell who's who on the battlefield... oh wait, banners exist

D) History is too boring or takes forever to hit all the main points over a century... even though there are ways to show the passing of time and, just, game of thrones

E) speaking on an OP or earlier accent can get unintelligible if you're not accustomed to it... but subtitles exist

And finally. 99.99% of the time, axes and swords are worn on the hip, not the back. The only exception is the beast being oo long to wear on the side.

Spears are cheap and are stupid easy to use, especially with a sheild.

Combat is always fast and can lead to a messy ground fight. Yes, getting bonked really hard is an option. Bows were used by strong people and were fired quickly and/or with high precision (trick shots were used to pass the time, not hitting archery targets)

People snuffing it was a normal occurrence, be it from illness, infection, accidents, or fighting.

"But it's a movie," yeah, and my countless hyoerfixations say otherwise

I drew a bunch of silly stuff with my werewolf woman and decided to gather it one post. Sometimes you just have to decompress through being goofy

You can read about her here.

These comics are just some silliness I drew for fun. It's not really canon, she lives in a separate setting and isn't able to talk as a werewolf. Her original story is also pretty rough and tragic.
