Vandalseed posted:I've got a single-payer story, from a single-payer nation, for some perspective: I've also got a single payer healthcare story. In May 1998 I was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes. I was immediately admitted to hospital, put on insulin - and on an injector pen at that, as I have an extreme phobia of needles - and instructed in everything I needed to know to control my condition. This instruction was good enough that 19 years later I have virtually no neuropathy or retinopathy. In May 1998 I had been out of work for almost a year. If I lived in America I would probably be dead aged 24, or at best a permanent bankrupt. Which is why I'm glad my treatment means I also retain sufficient physical capacity that when someone talks about single payer healthcare being a bad idea I can indulge my quite natural urge to break their limbs with an iron bar.

My single payer story. I got diagnosed with a rare and deadly super aggressive cancer by a walk in dr on a Wednesday. On Monday I had the first tumor removal surgery. Treatment with 6 surgeries and two months if radiation took me 5 months at no cost other than missed work. This is Canadian fwiw.

The nudity in Zelda at least feels like it's because of the subject matter being presented, and not just somebody tracing over some porn stills and copy/pasting red pill talking points over the traced porn.

The artist doesn't shy away from portraying actual intercourse (art!) if that comic book preview in that Rocky magazine I bought once is anything to go by. Doubt you'll see that in the Zelda strips though.

Like if your protagonist is a flawed and angry young woman struggling to define what feminism means for her then occasionally it makes sense that sex would come up. Some of the strips seem a bit low effort in the way that daily newspaper comic strips do (does it run daily?), but otherwise, it seems like an okay strip that's just a little straightforward compared to actual political cartoons, which try to encode their message in metaphor, even if they often fail and come off as hamfisted.

I get what this is trying to say, but it seems to run on the assumption that the whole world is like the US. Strictly speaking , you don't have to be born super-rich, you only have to be born in or immigrate to a civilised country. Kopijeger fucked around with this message at 14:54 on May 9, 2017 |

Colonianism is some sort of class warfare. Is not it? Except you kills the poors of other place. Had the rich guys find a place to be physically removed from the same country the poors, they can apply the science of colonianism again. It could be a ring in space (like in the movie), it could be the Moon, it could be New Zealand. Bors is on the mountain and we are in the valley, or he is on the mountain and we are in the valley, It don't matter. I can see through Bors eyes sometimes.

The artist is from Denmark right? From my own experience through relatives and TV shows, they are much more ok with things like nudity and sex scenes in media than we are as North Americans.
