Lol at all the people deleting their comments or getting downvoted heavily. You are the target audience. This is either a warning to get your shit straight or nuke your hard drive. Dealers choice... Take a hint boys.

My closest superstore an hour drive away. 60 miles. The closest grocer is 12 miles. My closest international airport is 1.5 hours away. It is also the closest regional airport. 85 miles. The closest national park is 3 hours. I live 6 miles from my closest town.

There are no passenger trains, busses, or taxis. Or uber.

Rural america is empty. And spread out. We get along fine, but public transit will never exist here. Cars are the only way.

Dragon ball is huge in latin america because they were the first to get dubs in their language, in a time where spanish dubs for any cartoon were very underserved. Usa airwaves were saturated with animation for kids. Latin america had to buy rights because there was very little home grown production.

They also got the dubs way way sooner than viewers in the united states.

Right time and right place, and it snowballed from there.

Thermite is considered less lethal than napalm and phosphorus. Its fairly direct too. It only lights up what it is dropped on. It can burn up cover and leave the troops under it fairly unharmed. Another example of Ukraine fighting with one hand tied behind their back, but still making due with what works.

On top of that, its super easy to make. Its just rust iron oxide and powdered aluminum. You can make it at home with a file and some old pipes.

Shit, this winter, for 3 days strait, i got ads with literal swinging dicks and full on penetration. Reported ads, and moved on. After day three, i deleted the app and only launched from a sandboxed browser with an ad blocker.

Now, i only open it for the marketplace. The place was cancer anyhow, but that was just too much.

Neil gaimon is always good with his narration. The audible books that include a full cast are absolutely superb.

Bonus points for nigel plainar as solo narrator for his discworld books. Does an amazing job.
