@planefag I mean, he's right, though. Most of them, realistically, would not be pretty or even pleasant girls considering the problems they have.

@SandyofCthulhu IIRC, their a lot of manuscripts and books from the 1300s onwards that would show men with disabilities doing tasks at camp so that more able bodied men could remain in fighting form.
English
Another take may come from this: in English sailing lore, the cooks are frequently sailors who’ve lost a leg. (Long John Silver signs on as a cook, even.) The crew wants to reward their comrade, and a one-legged man can’t climb the rigging or pull on cables.
Similarly, a lame man can’t hunt, is worse at riding, and can’t handle a plow as well. But he can be powerfully strong.
So a job where you stay in one place all day - i.e., a smith - makes sense. This could have become traditional - it’s a way for clubfoots or cripples to make a real contribution to the clan.
It may also explain the connection between dwarfs and metalworking.
And it may have even gotten its start back in the neolithic - we know cripples were kept alive by both Neanderthals and Cro-magnon. Seems like they could keep helping in flint-knapping.

”鍛冶神は、なぜに常に身体障害者であるのか？”。柳田は民話の中にそれを探ろうとしたが、答えは出していない。最も人心を安心させる答えは、”それは一種の職業病だ”というもの。最も物騒な、そして穿った答えは、”製銅・製鉄の秘術拡散を防ぐため、身体欠損させて逃亡を防いだ”というもの。

@welchy3319 I'm not saying that no good teams exist in the West... What I am saying is that the East is far more competitive at the moment.

There are 15 other teams in the West too , you know...

@AngryPredsFan It's shit like this that makes me wonder if the West is actually that bad, or if the Aves are really that good.
English
@WeGhoStyle @WorldBriefingX @sentdefender Really and why did the fight start in the first place?
Oh that's right. The Arab world got it's teeth kicked in, so they resorted to using insurgent groups.
English
@JSkylynx @WorldBriefingX @sentdefender Israel has been picking fights since before Hezbollah and Hamas retard, that’s the point
English
According to Fox News, citing two U.S. officials, Vice President JD Vance’s final offer delivered to the Iranian delegation in Islamabad last night, prior to the breakdown of peace talks between the two countries mediated by Pakistan, consisted of the following demands:
1. End all uranium enrichment
2. Dismantle all major nuclear enrichment facilities
3. Retrieve highly enriched uranium
4. Accept a broader peace, security and de-escalation framework that includes regional allies
5. End funding for terrorist proxies Hamas, Hezbollah, and the Houthis
6. Fully open the Strait of Hormuz, charging no tolls for passage
English
@WeGhoStyle @WorldBriefingX @sentdefender Don't bitch when the invading force bombs you in return for shooting rockets at random towns on the border areas.
You act like this isn't a 2-way street. Israel is gonna stir shit because Hezbollah and Hamas are trogs who constantly pick fights.
English
@JSkylynx @WorldBriefingX @sentdefender Why can’t they fund people fighting against invading forces? You couldn’t name a single group that Iran funds that came about randomly and with no foreign or outside interference
English
@andyblueskyz @Breaking911 ...brother, we still have shells/landmines from the American Civil War that explode because someone kicked them while swimming.
English
@Breaking911 Ludicrous, just pick it up and take it to a military range. 80 year old rusty bombs don't blow up.
English
An unexploded World War II device was detonated at Mansel Park in Millbrook, UK after bomb disposal teams responded and carried out a controlled explosion, safely neutralizing the ordnance.
English
@AngryPredsFan It's shit like this that makes me wonder if the West is actually that bad, or if the Aves are really that good.
English
Being mathematically eliminated while being 13th in the league standings, that’s crazy
B/R Open Ice@BR_OpenIce
With today’s loss the Red Wings have extended their NHL leading playoff drought to 10 seasons. 🥶
English
@hamzapatel007 @WorldBriefingX @sentdefender IDK, maybe Iran should stop funneling arms to groups that have been constantly launching rockets at Israel, and therefore starting the ongoing genocide in Gaza.
It's takes two retards to fuck up a Tango.
English
@JSkylynx @WorldBriefingX @sentdefender International law ??? Haaaahaaa ,f*ck the international law ,where was it when bloody Zionist launched thier war against Iran or when they gleefully killed children in minab and gaza and lebanon?? Where was it
English
@WorldBriefingX @sentdefender "maximalist demands"
"Stop funding terrorist groups, stop trying to go for nuclear weapons, you are not breaching the last 200 years of international maritime law to charge tolls"
English
@sentdefender If this is accurate, this wasn’t a negotiation - it was a maximalist demand list.
Hard to see how talks could succeed with terms like these on the table.
I broke this down into a short, clear summary.
English
@kittyqueenatx @Polymarket "control of hormuz" =/= return to the original system of international maritime law
English
@Polymarket Bullshit. They would have caved and given atleast some agreements but the US wanting to keep letting Israel bomb Lebanon and to take control of hormuz (which is a non starter)
English
JUST IN: Iran has reportedly refused to commit to ending their nuclear program.
English
@VideoGameGun @uncledoomer I'm aware of the other kind where it's cubed ham, hardboiled eggs, and cut kielbasa w/ horseradish that's called "Polish Egg Salad"
English
@JSkylynx @uncledoomer Ive never head this called white borscht and I had it on easter. Not for breakfast tho that's kinda weird
English
@void_post @uncledoomer The people do not know, but rodent meat contains more protein per gram than chicken and beef.
English
@AlJenko98 @B52Returns @Gryffix and if we are talking much more localized like say just going from Pittsburgh to Buffalo. One way. That's still $120 for train w/ 12hrs... or I could just drive.
Most of our trains are that bad.
English
@AlJenko98 @B52Returns @Gryffix Realistically? Yeah.
Lets say I wanna travel from Minot to Buffalo.
It'd be $500 and I'd be traveling about 64hr roundtrip.
Or I fly by plane at ~$450 and it's only 14hrs roundtrip.
English
I'm sorry but that's nonsense. Large countries have high speed rails? It's more about taxes and what you use them for than country size. If you can build 20 lane high ways you can build a rail.

@Sabremetrix Sabres against Ottawa would suck if only for the fact that Cozens and Ullmark would be out for revenge.
English
Ottawa is going to be a brutal matchup for the Atlantic division winner
English
@AlJenko98 @B52Returns @Gryffix No.
Freight is priority. Passenger rails would not be economically viable compared to passenger aircraft.
