Never believe that anti-Semites are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The anti-Semites have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past.
Wow, I feel like you worded this a bit aggressively and I'm not sure that was necessary. I hope life is treating you well, my friend.
Well, I could imagine that it's because I don't live in the US, and there's a different focus of topics here? I'm sure it's been mentioned on the news website I sometimes visit, but apparently on a day when I wasn't looking.
You're probably better off wearing something like Red Wing's Iron Rangers, though there's multiple brands that are pretty good. Meermin comes to mind for Europeans. Solovair if you're really into the Dr Martens look.
/r/goodyearwelt used to be a good resource for shoe stuff, not really sure if there's something comparable on Lemmy yet.
Ooh, looks interesting. Though the size would be a disadvantage to me—I can imagine some situations where using an ereader is acceptable where a phone would not be, and other people won't be able to tell them apart this way.
Yes, that can be the trick. Luckily, back then I worked with new, Dutch players, who didn't know anything about 4e or its controversy in the first place.
Unpopularly, me and my friends actually enjoyed 4e and I'll probably start up a campaign again sometime soon... But I can see how it could be perceived as more of a boardgame-resource-managing type of game.
Back in her frog phase, preceding her more well-known turtle phase later in life.
