In other news, I was a fan before they got popular.
Rin and Nadeshiko enjoy their hot pot. Nadeshiko gets up at 6am to see the sunrise over Mt. Fuji.
Meanwhile, Aoi and Chiaki get part-time jobs to fund the purchase of improved gear.
I saw someone use the phrase "identifying as a Traumatized Person," and I thought: this is the perfect distillation. This is the thing I reject, wholly.
(For myself. Your mileage may vary.)
Middle earth is confirmed to have atoms and isotopes.
The Valar told the elves about them, but didn't explain what they are for, so elvish nuclear engineering is canon-compatible, but not implied by canon.
A fun thing in fiction is when you see an artifact that alludes to a piece of worldbuilding without explaining it.
If you or a loved one was injured in the Corrupted Mana Blast, you may be entitled to compensation.
Prediction:
_Lord of the Rings: The War of the Rohirrim_ will open new fronts in the hotly contested <does it really count as anime?> wars.
Changing background art to show less cleavage is not a Feminist Win.
I would say this is the Renaming Aunt Jemima of misguided appeasements, except misguided appeasements are announced and this was not, so IDK.
As is tradition, a Halloween-themed alternate name.
Might be forced to start using Facebook again.
If you were using DOM events, like a PLEB, you could do this in one line. (Three if you have to register a new event.)
In our enlightened world, you must define a new Control, View, Model and Action, and add an entry to the State. Then you must wire up...

Why be poor in Paris when you can be rich in Versailles?
The lowered cost of living alone should make it easier to attract new members.
The group move means they keep their personal networks.
(Any one person might not take the risk of moving away, but at 100 people it seems like a clear win.)
MIRI and CFAR should just move their headquarters.
The cost of living in Raleigh is 46% less than San Francisco and 8% less than the national median.
It's a real city with culture and universities and such.
The Rats claim to be utilitarians, so they should do the math.
A modest proposal:
The 100 most tightly connected rationalists should move to Raleigh, NC. Those who can not get equivalent jobs should be paid by the others in a Coasian bargain.
Raleigh is a tech hub, so those with tech dayjobs can get equivalent jobs.
Why do so many people who consider themselves to be (aspiring) rationalists live in the second most expensive city in America?
I'd like to see a worked cost-benefit analysis. (Shut up and multiply; If it's worth doing it's worth doing with made up numbers.)
Justify yourselves!
Meanwhile the Libertarians had been working on those causes for years and failed to pick up any public goodwill when they succeeded.
The greatest PR success of the Democrats and failure of the Libertarians is convincing people that the Democrats are for gay marriage and marijuana legalization, both of which happened through non-elected means, then the Democrats got in front of the parade.
Common block structuring methods in programming languages:
{}: C and so many others -- the most popular
