@FirearmFury Did an AI make this picture?

KAR98k or Dragunov SVD?

@Rhinestonefilms @wylfcen Me neither

@Marcus48523 @wylfcen I honestly think her world building was so poor initially that whether diagon-alley was a place muggles could find but never did, or couldn’t find, wasn’t fully known. I’m not a big fan of Harry Potter though, and don’t hold the world building in very high esteem.

>British person says she couldn’t tell Harry Potter was set in Britain This is the most “fish don’t know they’re in water” thing I’ve ever seen

@GeraltofGoonia That’s a Flame Atronach from Oblivion

What is going on in Warframe man

@Huff4Congress Or… better when you think about it in this context.

“Black Snape” really does get worse the more you think about it. 😭

@TheActualCrunch @04nbod @wylfcen Huh, that’s interesting! I wonder why she chose that town in particular

@Marcus48523 @04nbod @wylfcen Assuming there's not another "wizarding" Dufftown, the films and books anchor it close by.

@JasonSokol3 The real question is why they didn’t just rock up to Watto’s afterwards with Royal Guards (so they could disguise the fact that they were Jedi) and threat to break Watto’s limbs with a hammer. By the time Watto tattles to his Hutt, the party is long gone.

In the actual film, Q.G. Jim tries to exchange Anakin’s Formula 1 racecar for two slaves and Watto explicitly shoots it down as a lowball offer

@04nbod @wylfcen Is it in Scotland? How can you tell?

@wylfcen To be entirely fair he just gets on a train (or a Ford Anglia) and turns up. They never actually say its in Scotland

@Rhinestonefilms @wylfcen That would make significantly more sense, but isn’t the big wizard shopping center a left turn down a dark alley in London? I’m wondering how they reconcile that and the fact that you need a train to get to the school. Pocket dimensions?

@wylfcen I think they’re saying they took the wizarding world to be like a never land/narnia realm. Like hobbiton is British coded, but not infact Britain. Is that what they’re saying? It’s hard to tell.

@JustinSadur @DDayFilms Lucas grew up in a Lutheran household so that’s something he would say

@DDayFilms "To truly exist, you must have the capacity to suffer."

If I could ask George Lucas one question, I'd probably ask why droids are programmed to scream.

@uncledoomer It’ll be safe to eat but the flavor went adios decades ago

genuinely why wouldnt this still be good

@GunsFanatics That FAMAS actually goes kinda hard

The samurai & the cowboy are natural allies. And I'm tired of pretending like we're not.

@HillAnc49424 @OldeWorldOrder I think “cowboy” in this case is a catch all term for “rugged Western hero”

@OldeWorldOrder Not really. Cowboy serves no - one. Samurai serves shogun.

@Doorman58114425 @OldeWorldOrder That actually stands to reason, since basically the same thing happened in the West between exConfederate soldiers becoming bank robbers and Ex Union soldiers becoming hired guns for industrialists and financiers.

@OldeWorldOrder My point is that cowboy ended up being rebels against government tyranny while samurais were enforcers of both government tranny inwardly and piracy, murder, theft, and rape outwardly. If they live in the same country then cowboys and samurai would be natural enemies.

@Doorman58114425 @OldeWorldOrder Cowboys were dirty, underhanded, and vicious. When they descended upon frontier towns like Dodge and Tombstones, they were functionally indistinguishable from more professional bandits and many cowboys moonlighted as freight robbers, cross border raiders and rustlers.

@OldeWorldOrder Historically the samurai raided, looted, and raped the mainland acting like the worst type of pirates. In their own country their main purposes were to slaughter rebelling citizen who tired of the overly tyrant leadership. Only during war were they somewhat noble.

A comm of Myriel, the head mistress of a female-only spy organization and expert assassin It's not often I draw tactical gear but I really like how this one came out

@DeeToTheThree @TheNameofWar Those are MP who are ostensibly selected for by height and muscle build. You need a brute to wrangle soldiers.

@TheNameofWar Holy shit then average Pole must look like a space marine next to a Russian.

An American and Russian soldier together in Syria

@ImBatman443 @ShitpostGate Did anyone not in the Japanese high command know that?

@ShitpostGate The Japanese high command had 0 intentions of invading Australia btw

@EricRichards22 Scale of cost makes that difficult, Hallmark movies are cheap because it’s two people wandering around some rented property for a few hours talking to each other.

Honestly if they would make Hallmark Channel quality movies for men, they'd print money Every genre that was like this has been pozzed or prestiged or both Cheap westerns or noirs or sci-fi or swords-and-sandals. Deliberately, but earnestly shitty and low-budget

@marklivesthings Virginia doesn’t exercise pocket vetoes? That’s a huge part of most governor’s power over the legislature

The phenomenon of Virginia Democrats passing sweeping gun control and then going completely silent on the matter (including the governor sitting on the bills instead of signing them) in order to not further enrage voters at a politically critical moment is...interesting.
