So you can have a revolution with a peaceful protest. The problem is that requires a general strike to go with it to entirely cripple the economy. And Americans are obviously still too fat and happy to even do that.

Sure. Even better, if you replace them with ones that will rule this was an error and the president only gets qualified immunity, you'll still be in the clear because you were acting on what you thought the law was.

I've got a really wild idea: what if you change the shape of the anchor so that it's actually getting resistance against the water itself instead of having to hit the sea floor. You'll have to pull it out if the water once you're done moving it and then drop it in again. Maybe put it on the end of a big stick. I'm thinking about calling this type of anchor an "oar."

Try piercing but hole.

Not only that, you're using the friction between the anchor and the seafloor, so even the recoil of a propulsive ballista will allow you to perform work.

Hey warp and weft is why I mentioned threading a needle across the sea.

Thank you Boatswain Underpants. Keep up the good work.

I bet you could get a bunch of money for a CGI prototype of your new green cargo ship.

We'll just use a howitzer to launch the ring into mount doom.

Those vessels have truly advanced warp drives.

I stumbled on it when figuring out just how the hell tall ships docked and undocked without tugs. Turns out they did use tugs in the form of rowboats but they also extensively used shoreside rigging and warping.

Edit: and I should add, they very rarely actually docked in the first place because it was such a pain in the ass, so they used tenders instead mostly

There are a significant subset of leftists who explicitly believe that democracy is not a path forward because it's co-opted by capital and they're not even all Marxists.

Of course they have no interest in supporting Cornel West.

Some sort of northern European rye with rocket/arugula.

Somethin to keep in mind is that it's a labor intensive harvest and the products aren't really what we'd want to market. You'd wait until the whole lot of them kind of dies down and harvest winter squash, dry beans, and flint corn then till the remainder back into the soil.

It's not bad for substinence farming, but you're not going to get the yields or reasonable market prices with those crops.

He's old.

I was making a general statement about when anime has a political theme, not on that particular anime. Though I guess you could find a utopian vision in a nation that views all to be equally worthless and champions genocide and calling the dark young of shub niggurath to stomp on people.

I actually wasn't picking on overlord specifically, more like political and economic statements in anime tend to be right wing liberal stuff.

I'm not going to go on a quest for iskeai Reaganomics and general nationalistic and racist themes, but I'm sure you won't have a hard time with some self study on that front.

Yeah, but he'd be as fulfilled by that as much as he would by picking up cans.

Anime has a disgustingly right wing bent, which should be expected from a country that's been run by the right since 1955 https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/1955_System.
