I find it very annoying how all reporting nowadays has to be done through some story of a handful of people, maybe even one person, and how the purported issue affects them. It's just editorializing through a veneer of coverage, you can always find some jerk with the opinion you want to push.

Seatbelts posted:I'm loving all these super APCs or whatever; it kinda makes sense when you are facing hoards of infantry with NLAW rockets Its for killing people who can't fight back OP And the link between 9/11 and Afghanistan was also transparently manufactured to justify an invasion. The Taliban had nothing to do with Osama's squad of Saudi terrorists, and the greatest crime they committed was wanting a fair trial by an impartial country instead of just blindly feeding suspects into the torture maw

A Moscow court just sentenced a guy under the new treason legislation for the first time, he got 25 years. He has RU/UK double citizenship and apparently worked with US NGOs and did stuff like calling for more sanctions on Russia while being in Russia.

He's been working with opposition to the government for years. Seems like Kremlin just got tired of his poo poo.

Gulping Again posted:i have a bachelor's in english and have no god drat idea when to use semicolons Using semicolons is easy; I do it all the time. There are times I like to use a full colon though: to spice things up, to prove I'm a smart, or just as a little treat

Semicolons join two related statements together where one or both would otherwise be fragments. Now you know how to use a semicolon.

Ok so you can use a semicolon because you're an rear end in a top hat that's too good for a period or a comma. Got it.

that's also how you use a period or a transition. that becomes a style choice. semicolons are leather pants punctuation. you either pull off the look or you don't

Nix Panicus posted:Is the mage an elf? Asking for a friend. I don’t think so. I think she is the same woman as the cover from An Orc at College 5, and her ears look normal compared to the clearly elven ears of the lady on the cover of An Orc at College 2; not to mention the large bunny ears on the woman on the cover of An Orc at College 1. Certainly I could be wrong from just judging a book by its cover, anyone who has more familiarity with the An Orc at College: A Contemporary Sword and Sorcery Harem Fantasy series please correct me.

the trick is that nobody loving knows when to use semi-colons; this gives you cover to use them whenever you want, since nobody can call you out on it
