It was pretty fun at the beginning but then suddeenly he’s on the world conquest, enslaving people left and right, having pedo inclinations about his witch teacher and Occupied Korea is revealed to be world class superpower in magic underworld FUCKERS WHY DID YOU GET OCCUPIED AND ALLOWED USIANS TO DID ALL THAT SHIT TO YOURSELVES.
That’s not the author, but rather the illustrator.
That’s worse, because it’s him that made that manga, plot is rather banal and characters unmemorable, but the art was one of the best.
Thanks I’ll take a look, do you have any recommendations? I never really read any manhwa.
Infinite Levelling: Murim is pretty fun, guy get reincarnated and even gets the magic cheat system, but since he isn’t a modern gamer but medieval Chinese soldier he can’t even understand the terminology at the beginning. Next one is Peerless Dad, about dude getting back to martial arts while raising kids. Next one Volcanic Age, i would say archetypical high fantasy murim story. Finally, Chronicles Of Heavenly Demon, basically the same as above, but protagonist is on the other side of barricade and wants to destroy murim, also noteworthy because the author resisted all the flashy costumes and most people there just go around in historical clothes.
I kinda like murim manhwas because they are all set in China (usually in first century of Ming era but that can vary) and thus they don’t have the sinophobia included (unlike for example again Gamer which reeks of it and Infinite Levelling which also hints it often) and protagonists usually aren’t edgy bastards.
Solo levelling is South Korean manhwa, author literally died working on it, and you expect come social commentary about predatory capitalism in the age of apocalypse? On a bright side, he at least did finished it and did not filled it with completely absurd Occupied Korean chauvinism like the author of the most cringy manhwa ever, “The Gamer” (yes i’m not joking there is really shit like that out there).
Anyway, better read some murim manhwas, they tend to be quite fun.
and I’m a sucker for necromancy, so I’m excited to see where it goes lol.
Nowhere, he later gets into advanced class which is technically still a necromancer but not really.
Even when a life-threatening hurricane is headed your way, there are many reasons why you might stay put. You might have dependent family members who can’t leave due to disabilities or other health-related reasons; you might not have reliable transportation to get to a safer area, and what’s more, no gas to get there. Sometimes, you simply refuse to leave your home and everything you own behind.
There’s also the reality of just not being able to afford it.
Every reason in the first paraghraph is still boiling down to the reason from second paragraph
Yes, i specifically didn’t said “WW2” but “WW2 era” because it seen little combat, but it was definitely tank entering production in time of WW2 and based on experience from WW2. Also, while it was relegated, it incorporated many revolutionary solutions and was instrumental for later development of soviet MBT.
Fun fact: IS3 (the tank in picture) despite being probably the best tank of WW2 era, was only 10% more expensive to produce than an ordinary Sherman, and was nearly half the cost of Pershing and half the cost of Tiger.
Yeah, a rare Soviet L, i guess there were troubles in tax collection during NEP, since iirc it was implemented around that point. Still, the context of this tax in socialism and capitalism is kinda different, right now indirect taxes in general are main part of overall regressive tax system (like in Poland poor people pay total around 60% tax, rich one 20-30% and richest who know how much, probably even less). And Poland for example did not had VAT in socialism.
Most likely VAT tax, an old tsarist fiscal trick to fleece the poor. Or maybe just the new trick to fleece the poor by creating aspulled link between dominant and vassal imperialist currency, since VAT isn’t constant in EU, it’s from 17% (Luxembourg) to 27% (Hungary)
Widzę że poddałem towarzyszowi pomysł, ale wyrób czegoś takiego chyba zajmie krócej XD
But a lost opportunity to make the dildos on the shelf have heads of Hoxha
Oh so this is how Musk became richest man
Tell this to them, it’s almost 600 comments now.
Just look at those nuggets:
Original Cyberpunk 2020 rpg game that came in 1988 had that sidebar bit about people lending their brains (physically) for 5 years to became cybersoldiers, and that was presented as hyper dehumanising.
Probably for the same reasons any other corpo is sitting silent about China:
The history of Chinese Lego is btw really fun. Lego for years hesitated to build a factory in China, but ultimately stonks syndrome got them and they did. Shortly after, Chinese started to produce strangely similar bricks which are only minimally different by plastic composition, just enough to avoid lawsuit. Since then they also expanded offer on miniblocks (75% of size of ordinary) and microblocks (50% and still look great but dammit they make the fingers hurt).
And most importantly, they got not only copies of many rare lego sets but also many sets Lego never had, like the military including Soviet ones (tanks, planes and helis are relly good). They also make some from animes, movies etc, yesterday i seen complete model of Thousand Sunny from One Piece with all crew or the famous Pirate Ship from old Lego, but even bigger.
No idea, i’m not even really into Lego, from what i seen it’s pretty expensive in Poland, so the best option would be probably to buy something similar on aliexpress and convert like in your picture. Socialist figures would be mostly pretty easy, since they don’t involve any weird or huge pieces (though it would be fun to convert Kakashi to Stalin).
Nice, definitely handpainted with some green stuff on his head visible too.
I never ever heard anyone calling it Meta in rl.
