It’s hard to build stuff in the shield.

That seems good. Though I wonder if there is a third party behind those gift cards and the transaction process from them. I suppose as long as it’s not Visa it’s a good option.

No idea what that means. But if you post someone’s work you should attribute it. Fortunately OP corrected it here so good on them.

Thanks

Why did you remove the artist name from the comic?

I feel this situation is only going to get worse for everyone. We as consumers, gamers or otherwise, don’t really have alternatives to this monopoly. At least that I am aware of. Typically if a company acts up we can just boycott it. But what other options do we even have here?

Aside from kindly asking the monopolies to be less evil, are there any alternatives that would work?. I nearly got my card paid off and would be happy to chuck it into a volcano. However I still need to make online transactions.

Even if there’s a good one that’s not supported widely yet the first step may be to demand its adoption.

Every time I mention I like Undertale and get “Did YoU bEat Sans?”

No, because I’m not a genocidal monster and I never will be. I did the pacifist route. Game over, nothing else to see here.

How people think I use AI “Please write my essay and cite your sources.”

How I use it
“please make my autistic word slop that I wrote already into something readable for the nerotypical folk, use simple words, make it tonally neutral. stop using emdashes, headers, and list and don’t mess with the quotes”

For free? I doubt it.

Ah, I’m sorry if it seemed like I assumed that. I’m sure he’d have happily taught you these things if his job allowed the time for it.

No point in shaming others for not having a skill. If your sergeant didn’t like it they ought to have sat you down with a needle and thread and trained you themselves.

Hiking these up is what did this as well. Losing some weight finally maybe.

I was in elementary in Canada early 90’s. My school was weird. There’s a large Mennonite community in the area where I grew up so a large percentage (more than 50%) of the kids in this school were Mennonite. For those unfamiliar, these are similar to Amish. Such farmers with strong religious views, most of them were “old order” meaning they grew up in homes with little to no electricity. They also finish school at age 12 regardless of progress. This meant that they were exempt from a lot of the classes my tiny public school had to offer. No French, computing, or Sex Ed. A lot of them were also in special Ed. I’m not going to sugar coat this. It’s forbidden from them to marry outside of their culture and only like 4 families came to the area. So there’s a lot of disabilities as a result of inbreeding with that community.

All this to say that my school had absolutely no clue how to deal with my undiagnosed autism. But they seemed to have decent funding due to the much higher needs.

I was in special Ed via French exemption status. This means I never learned french. I’d instead be placed in a room with all the Mennonite kids often in a corner trying to read. Eventually I was put into some kind of program. A neurologist should come by and do experiments on me. Nothing weird, just testing my fine motor skills. They (falsely) diagnosed me with “elementary tremors” a pediatric doctor upped this to a “retardation caused by mild down syndrome” (extremely wrong) after years of that nonsense they decided to use this crazy new fangled technology to give me a leg up with writing. I was given a Macintosh computer. I had a desk with tiny wheels and my 4th grade self had to wheel this from class to class (including “portables”). Of course this was pretty obsolete tech even for its time. My parents got me an Alpha Smart which was way better. By 6th grade I had a personal support worker to help get me caught up. I failed grades 3-6 but was ‘placed’ into the next grade anyway and never made to repeat anything.

Highschool was very different, no Mennonite, so way less funding. It was still a French exemption class but there were only about 5 other students in the class. It seemed to be less about education, or assessment of my condition. It was some watching videos and doing some analysis. It was mostly just a time to catch up on homework. Often there wasn’t even a teacher present.

I miss the Mongolian grill

We really need a modern remake of this.

Make it mandatory that all references to the old name reads the new name in all print media.

Enforce rule in all federal agencies.

Pay off various groups to demand and facilitate the passing of laws enforcing this rule at state levels. (Deny Federal involvement)

Attempt to make it a culture norm, and deny any evidence it was ever called anything else. It’s un patriotic to call it the old thing.

Then you have freedom fries… Er I mean the Gulf of murica.

The older you get the more your going to want that poop command to use on yourself.

Ah perhaps I’m not used too that where I am. I appreciate unions truly, and belive we need more. But the ones I’ve been in have been nearly as corrupt as the politicians. Often run by the retired and wealthy making decisions on behalf of those still working. Often bad ones.
