Mochi is Japanese, not Korean, so it's basically the same premise but a bit less culturally removed.

That being said I've met many Koreans with dogs named after Korean words for foods.

All the deckbuilders I know aren't even roguelikes, they're roguelites. The meta progression of unlocking new cards/charms/characters is too essential to the longevity of a run-based deckbuilder.

I get the feeling that 'getting old enough to be less functionally important to the group' wasn't a common phenomenon in the time period depicted in the meme, but I also think your logic tracks.

I think you underestimate the number of people who protest voted by refusing to vote at all, which is neither an actual protest vote nor the same type of problem. Not that I think it would have been a guaranteed tipping point, but it sure would have made things a bit closer. Compound that with one of the (designed) effects of the electoral college (devaluing voter turnout in high-population states), and you widen that gap much more.

"America will have the most lethal military" and other signalings in favor of status quo imperialism sure did kill any interest for many left wingers to vote, and anecdotally I know many of my left-proclaiming peers took that as reason to forego the polls altogether.

Apparently they are not made, but just "are". And their contents are not definite either, but rather they write themselves as needed when being observed? Basically a physical manifestation of fate, I guess. I've heard people argue that they are blueprints for existence that only manifest as scrolls so that physical beings can perceive them.

In other words, spacetime macguffin.

I looked up "new Harry Potter" and found that there's a TV series releasing on HBO later this year. I'm assuming this image references a trailer for the show.

This was not in any way difficult.

You said we need beef and pineapple pizza? Got it, working on it right away.

You build state-sanctioned dueling arenas, complete with a whole system of paperwork proving consent.

I was going to say, having a wheelchair on hand would make a great way to scrape the hell out of the rear of the car with plausible deniability.

Your idea is probably better.

A bacon egg and cheese might work better than BLT.

Ah, yeah... the kid who had zero influence on any of it deserves zero sympathies. Got it...

They were specific about those who weren't straight white males. That includes gay white men and white women. Doesn't seem like a race thing to me.
