    Civic Nationalism or Ethnic Nationalism?

    Ideals are fickle and change drastically and frequently. Genetics far less so (most every ethnic group is older than any country existing today). To me, the difference between ethnic and civic nationalism is a lot like the difference between an adopted child and one of your own blood. At the...

    Civic Nationalism or Ethnic Nationalism?

    "He's from the Balkans" is a bit lacking in nuance as an explanation but it's not exactly wrong either. To clarify things a bit, I am not a Serbian nationalist but a Yugoslav one. I view Serbs, Croats, Bosniaks and Montenegrins as one people. For those unfamilliar with the area, there are...

    Civic Nationalism or Ethnic Nationalism?

    Very much an ethnic nationalist.

    Fully Automated Socialist Meme Thread - The Ministry of Ideological Memes

    For those who weren't aware, Karl Marx has an anime now. You can watch the whole thing on youtube subbed. That Marx and Engels bromance.

    MMO Star Wars: The Old Republic - Onslaught Commith

    Not all that different from Lord Praven, I suspect. While it's more common for Jedi to fall to the Dark Side than it is for Sith to embrace the Light Side, both happen with some frequency. You also have weirdos like Kel'eth Ur who created their own version of Sith philosophy based on the Light...

    What Anime are you watching today?

    I finally got around to watching Violet Evergarden. I am at episode 7 right now. It won't even make a dent in my backlog but it's a step in the right direction. Honestly, I'd need a year of nothing but watching anime to finish it all. As for this season, I've only been following Case Files so...

    MMO Star Wars: The Old Republic - Onslaught Commith

    The only class that can betray their faction is the Imperial Agent. It's also the best written of the class stories. My favorites are the Warrior and the Inquisitor though. My first character was a warrior and the story really makes you feel like an unstoppable juggernaut.

    Looking for Mods

    How did that rule come about? Who decided on it and why? It seems really arbitrary. What was the reasoning given?

    The Boys are Back in Town

    The trick is to bribe the customs agent. That's how it works here in Serbia at least. It's very profitable to smuggle in various goods from Hungary. My family orders dogfood from a smuggler since it's so much cheaper. It's also how I bought my keyboard. I am pretty sure the chocolates I eat are...

    What is the strongest magic-wielding fantasy world modern USA can defeat?

    Only if they are very young. As Asoiaf dragons grow, their scales harden until they are all but impenetrable. The Dornish got unbelievably lucky with Meraxes. They did a 1 in a million impossible ballista shot to the brain through the eye. On adult dragons, the eyes are their only weak spot...

    He was Quickdraw101. He's one of the posters that didn't change their name.

    The Boys are Back in Town

    I actually kind of miss the guy. I wasn't there for it, but I heard he got kicked from Discord due to being Odo? It's a shame. God only knows what he's doing now. He was seriously contemplating suicide before and I doubt his situation has improved.

    The Boys are Back in Town

    The Altmer are a type of High Elf but not who I had in mind with that comment. It's how both Drow and Dunmer are Dark Elves but they aren't the same thing. They are different takes on the Dark Elf archetype. Drow generally refers to Dark Elves in DnD (Faerunian Dark Elves to be more specific)...

    The Boys are Back in Town

    I don't have a Drow fetish so no. I am more of a High Elf kind of guy. I was Drakar on SB. What about you? I don't know who you are either. With so many people changing their name, it's hard to keep track.

    MMO Star Wars: The Old Republic - Onslaught Commith

    It's been a while since I last played Swtor. I quit sometime before Knights of the Eternal Throne came out. Didn't see much point in continuing since I finished all the class stories, planetary stories, Makeb and Shadow of Revan. I also ran through KOTFE once. How is Swtor these days? I...

    I am sorry, but nothing can ever beat creating four female clones of yourself and then making them your daughter-wives. That's peak mage lord right there. Crassius Curio might write quality erotica, but Divayth Fyr made his fantasies real. I think it's obvious which is better.

    No, I did not. I played Morrowind but somehow missed that little detail. Not that it has anything to do with me. I am a magical unicorn now (previous avatar was an earth pony) which are totally different from horses. Since you shared a fun fact about the Dunmer with me, I think I'll do the...

    The Boys are Back in Town

    Not Drizzt Do'Urden? I kid, I kid. Speaking of Minsc and Boo, I hear they'll be making a comeback in Baldur's Gate 3. That's one game I am definitely looking forward to. Illithids are an interesting choice for a main enemy.

    The Boys are Back in Town

    Still a pony. Still playing the accordion. Speaking of ponies, the last Bronycon was a few days ago and the show is also ending. It's the end of an era.

    What is the strongest magic-wielding fantasy world modern USA can defeat?

    Faerun would beat the US by virtue of it's Epic Wizards. The US (and Earth as a whole) can't really do much against the likes of Larloch/Szass Tam/Ioulaum. Wizards of that level can comfortably conquer our world without us being able to do anything. I also hate to be that guy, but Wraiths. The...
