  1. Merrin isn't as good as a wyvern knight Kagetsu, but she's about on par with a griffon knight Chloé. On hard mode I'd insta promote her to either of those classes, or maybe warrior, because even with a forged silver dagger I don't think her offense is that good. 8/10
  2. Diamant is likely one of the better physical units in your army when you get him. He compares favourably to early promoted 10/1 Alear and Boucheron, and notably a bit worse than Chloé unless you also immediately promote him. He's also noteworthy in that he has decent physical bulk and that he can wield a steel sword without losing AS. On hard mode he starts usable and stays usable throughout the game without otherwise being exceptional, at least in my opinion. There's better units than him vying for deployment slots.
  3. In hard mode Céline is a unit who starts off useful due to her offensive stats and having magic, goes through a dip as she starts getting out-statted, and then finds use again as an offensive stave user. Not a unit worth investing a lot into, as are most early joiners, but I think she's (along with Chloé) the first unit who shouldn't be automatically benched when you get access to newer, better units. 6/10
  4. The book bannings are very much not a publicity stunt, but an attempt by conservatives to impose their world view by banning access to information about things they don't agree with. And this is far from the only time it's happened, just probably the first time Anne Frank's diary was targeted.
  5. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_legislatures_by_country My post was harsher than it should have been, and the statement made more strongly than it should have. But I'm on some level of familiarity with Dutch/Belgian/German/French politics and I know that most European countries aren't two or single party states.
  6. This is deeply ignorant of how most parliamentary democracies outside of the english speaking world function.
  7. Top Secret is the highest security clearance in the US, not one of the highest.
  8. The search warrant and receipt of items taken has been unsealed and is now available online for your reading pleasure. https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.flsd.617854/gov.uscourts.flsd.617854.17.0_10.pdf
  9. No, the US is effectively a two party state and anyone voting green instead of dem might as well vote republican. In practical terms it's the same.
  10. DoJ has asked the judge to unseal the full search warrant, with attachments, and Trump has publicly said he won't oppose the move. Though what Trump says in public is usually different from what he says and does in court. Still, very curious to learn what's in the indictment. edit: correction, it's a search warrant, not an indictment Edit: For clarification, Trump has the search warrant and a receipt of what has been seized, and he's free to release those documents to the public at any time. He's apparently choosing not to.
  11. Kansas is deep, deep red. But as long as abortion is raised as a partisan issue, e.g. not like how things seemed to play out in Kansas, I still think the republicans aren't going to lose a significant amount of votes on it.
  12. An excellent performance, as usual. Looking forward to getting my turncount beaten in the V draft.
  13. I'm personally of the belief that a nationwide ban on abortions by the hand of the supreme court is coming. Texas made anyone who aided someone with getting an abortion civilly liable, including people not in Texas, and I wouldn't be surprised if several states end up criminalizing out-of-state abortions for their own residents. And to counter this, several other states have already made laws that block Texas from enforcing their law on their own residents. This is guaranteed to come before the supreme court sooner rather than later, and I currently think the most likely outcome is a wholesale ban on abortions.
  14. Surely if we just don't talk about it we'll all just get along. I'd insert that ben garrison "world where we don't talk about slavery vs world where we do" cartoon here but I can't find it
  15. Turning back the clock 50 years in at least half the country seems a pretty big win for conservatives to me. I've long been on board with throwing out the filibuster, I hope the democrats in congress finally muster up the courage to do it.
