“It’s not blackmail when the King does it,” I told her, a sour taste in my mouth. “It’s applying political pressure or something. At least he didn’t Intimidate us into it.”

The only reason to treat nuclear power differently from all other developments in the field of physics is the possibility of its use as a means of political pressure in peace and sudden destruction in war.

To anyone who refuses to vote for Biden in the US elections because of what he's done in Palestine: I'd like to hear the plan to get America to stop aiding Israel in the event of a Trump victory you must have to act so belligerently confident in your stance.

Will Biden Drop Out?

I don’t know and neither does anyone else. Look, in the last twenty-four hours there have been a lot of reports of Biden being ready to drop out, either by Monday or being in talks about what a withdrawal will look like. Zero of these come from on record sources and zero come from the Biden camp. They could be correct, or they could be hot air. As of this writing on 7/19/24 Noon CST, I suspect…

heeeeeyy tapa. you and cass are friens.

DoEs AnYonE KnOw WhaT tf HaPpEnEd to HIm!!!!

hello? cass you ok???? he didnt mention going on vakation.

did he abandon us??? is he tired???

No panic, okay, listen, Cass did send pretty long ago a link to their another account, she didn't disappear, she appears online and keeps creating great content with what she currently enjoys the most, I'm pretty sure she gets dozens of asks about how she does and if she doesn't answer it has a reason. I am a bit uncomfortable to ask people stuff like "how do you do" since for me it sounds a bit awkward, I see a post from that person and guess that they are okay, maybe posts under them have tags explaining if they are tired, resting or have too much work that has to be done and so on *whispering* You all were abandoned *evil laugh*

So yeah, just relax, search the link if you're really interested in the other content she creates since passionate comments to work give so much creation boost than just a few hollow tags, otherwise just look around and enjoy the stuff you like

if you mind us asking, what's the grudge you're holding with webtoon?

The grudge is simply that about 9-10 years ago, when I first went to webtoon to upload files, it asked me to upload the pages one at a time, and then kept putting them in a weird order.

Of course, now I imagine they have bulk uploading, but at the time, being one of the biggest sites in the webcomics industry, I felt it was lazy on their part. Not to mention how shite they treat their artists, who they make deals with, in general. Just left an overall bad taste in my mouth.
