Oh I mean, yeah, anthro characters are probably older than civilization, but I meant the furry fandom as a specific subculture rather than specifically the subject it is centered around.
Furries aren't as recent as people tend to think either I might point out, the subculture has existed in some form since like the 80s to my understanding, it's just more popular and visible these days.
I saw a post earlier on my mastodon mentioning this: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protocol_on_Mines,_Booby-Traps_and_Other_Devices I do see "portable objects" mentioned, but given that the section is otherwise about stuff associated with children, I'm not sure if pagers would qualify or not.
Especially since if he was standing up, it wouldn't be possible for an attacker to get an arrow in him in that direction anyway
It does make me wonder though, if there is a need for just the warhead portion of these weapons and not always for the whole missile and launcher, if it might not make sense to get the manufacturer to just make some of the warhead bit by itself and send a delivery with a few of the systems replaced with the extra loose warheads, to use aid resources (and the time of whoever is taking the missile apart again) more efficiently.
I assume that the whole "Stalin starved his people" thing isn't talking about the average conditions of the Soviet Union during more "normal" times, but rather specific events of mass starvation like the Holodomor. That being said, famine caused by accidental or malicious management of agriculture is something hardly unique to any single economic system (I imagine a comparison could be made to the Irish potato famine there, for an example of a similar type of disaster under a different economic system), so I'm not sure if it reflects entirely on the kind of system the Soviets were going for as much as it does mistakes in the process of transitioning to that system, and malfeasance on the part of those in charge in pushing the consequences of those mistakes upon disfavored groups.
Step 1: create a new instance of some platform, so as to be able to repost without moderation issues
Step 2: set up bot to repost 8 billion times
Step 3: Rawr!
I don't think these myths are meant to be taken completely literally, but in any case, Zeus isn't exactly the most upstanding and consistent deity out of all mythologies.
No stomach? Hadn't heard that one before
The time of entertainment per dollar is probably a bit different too I think. Depending on the replayability of the game in question, one can buy a game and get enjoyment out of it for hundreds or in some cases over a thousand hours. Meanwhile, even if you really enjoy a movie and rewatch it like 10 different times, that's still only like 20 hours. Movies tend to be cheaper to buy than games individually, but I suspect that buying enough movies to make up the time difference would make the movies significantly more expensive.
It's very similar to the concept of blood libel I think, just directed at a different group than that term usually refers to. Which, given what that kind of thing historically has led to, is extremely concerning coming from such a public figure.
But what will happen when the Electrons join the fight?
