Check out these Xenomorph-like double-jawed fish from African lakes. Although when looking at them externally they just look like normal fish to me.

Depends on a lot of factors. But if it's worse than you expected you should haggle.

Is there need for a liberal consensus anymore? Seems like info-silos and blueAnon and stuff let people both cut off information they don't like and simultaneously believe a bunch of contradictory things.

Might also just be a dipshit human astro turfer that's quick-writing these because this kinda' comes off like it's stream of consciousness from someone making shit up on the spot.

That's why I was wondering if there are any that would rather distort Engels' thinking as well rather than avoid him and stick to Marx. It doesn't make sense to me to throw out Engels for dialectics when Marx has those dialectics throughout his ideas and their works are so intertwined.

Exactly. Also the mass-commodification of aid.

That's the stage I got stuck on as a child. And I don't think I beat SMS until I was like 18 or something because of it. I also really sucked at games as a kid though.

Does anyone know if there are any pro-Engels analytical marxists?

Also, now that I'm having my daily meditation of thinking about Super Mario Sunshine: Why didn't they have a shine sprite for each stage equivalent to the 100 coin challenge but for cleaning 100% of the goo and all the goo enemies? You're tasked with cleaning the island up, it would make sense story-wise, it would be slightly different gameplay-wise, and it'd be a good way to stretch out the playtime.

I hate this. Just have them being cute, bumbling robots.

 

Hey.

 
 

 

There is no inherently superior number of sides for a shape to have. Be it 4 or 6 or even (shudders) 8.

I shouldn't have tried to start a 6-sided shape war. I will not keep asking the admin for a squarebear sister site for rectanglers such as myself. I will no longer refer to moderators as "hex maniacs, and not the cute kind". All sides are valid. I will not sign my posts with "get rect".

I'm sorry.

 

The union tried to help, but hit a number of barriers. Normally, the union uses public records to find out who owns a tenant’s home and then identifies what other properties the landlord owns. But public records only list if a person owns a unit in a condo building, not how many units they own. That means they couldn’t identify other tenants with the same landlord.

“A lot of the tenants end up not wanting to do a bigger fight because they feel so alone,” she said.

The union is brainstorming new tactics. One idea, which hasn’t yet been tested, is to organize around common issues instead of common landlords.

M.H. tried to do that when her water was shut off. But she found that each renter, because they had different landlords, had a different experience.

Good thing I was recording it.

This town racial-profiles and the cops wouldn't let me leave. The lady at the Inn wouldn't let me get a room, I saw someone with the same name as me on the sign-in sheet so I tried to lie my way into a room, but she wasn't fooled. I ended up hanging out with some kids who thought we were the same age. Nothing weird happened and there are absolutely zero power dynamic issues here. They told me about a secret passage if I played tag with them, which took hours. The passage didn't lead out of the town, but it did lead to this old guy's telescope and he told me about the Gamer Kid who's been terrorizing the town with various hamas-antifa-style intimidation tactics and violence. He might have killed some royal-relative dude on that forest path but I was too busy chasing after him to notice.

Also I hear coughs everywhere I sometimes asked people about it but they'd change the subject or sometimes even out-right deny that they coughed or that there was any problem.

Ended up finally getting out of town and heading south to some disgusting swamp that I think might be literally toxic. I thought maybe I went so far south to like Louisiana or something, but they just call it the Southern Swamp here or something. There was some kinda' tourist trap location on the edge of the swamp and some fellow 'scrubs' like me deep inside the swamp. Anyway, this place sucks ass too. Seems to be an actual authoritarian hermit kingdom. But it had a missing princess, so this was a chance to get a princess GF. Met a giant fucking owl that could talk and he taught me a song that he said would help me, although to be honest it kinda' sucked. Eventually found a hidden temple with the princess inside and a giant native guy who I couldn't tell if I should take his side or not. He kept saying the same like 3 short sentences over and over and kept attacking me and the bugs were so bad in there. So I killed him and he in the commotion I could tell if he turned into a mask or maybe he ran away and left the mask there but I got it and met a giant (like at least 6' 1") who said he'd help me combat the masked Gamer Kid. Took the little princess back and everyone was happy and at least the swamp healed.

Anyway, don't buy a Switch 2 in 2 days.
