I've done it where I built full tank on mages like Syndra, Heimerdinger, karma and just get all up in the enemy squishy faces. Keep the carries distracted while my team's damage dealers clean up. It works if your team doesn't really have any Frontline to keep the tanks and bruisers at bay, it works better if the enemy team doesn't notice you're a tank. Vayne, Kindred, and other %hp dealing ADC's can also go mostly tank, just get a bit of attack speed after the first tank item.

I would argue "general bigotry", considering the rainbow flag includes trans people.

After batteries are used up in EV's they still have a usable lifespan in grid energy storage systems. Then after their useful life there, they can still be recycled.

The grid "not being able to handle EVs" is a farce.

We buy weapons FROM Israel. Like it or not, Israel is a military asset.

He'll likely be living in pain for the rest of his life, so at least there's that.

Call the movie "Back to the Stoneage". Then send a tech billionaire to the past where nobody gives a fuck about them and they have to work to survive for the first time in their pathetic lives.

My number 1-3 songs were the first song on my playlist, the second song on my playlist and then the first song that plays if you set the playlist to "random".

If your champ doesn't deal %max-HP damage or true damage in any way, I would just continue to build damage and target the enemy squishy. If their tank is on top of you and you can't dish out any damage without dying then get some defenses. Rely on your allies who do deal maxhp / true damage to deal with the Tank.

When this sack of wet dog shit was walking around talking about how Article 2 gave him unchecked power it was a sure thing.

The real problem is over 50% of the voting age population just doesn't vote

I listened to a podcast a few years ago that was really transformative in my way of thinking. (I can't remember the exact podcast but I linked one that talks about procrastination); and below is a transcribed excerpt from the episode:

Fabrice explained “want” traps. For example, you may sit at your computer cruising the internet or playing digital games, all the while telling yourself “I really want to get to work on my paper,” or taxes, or whatever. But in point of fact, you DON’T want to get to work on the thing you’re putting off. You WANT to be doing exactly what you are doing.

We “trick ourselves into thinking we want something (like doing our taxes) when we really want to be doing something else (watching TV, playing computer games.) So, once again, we are telling ourselves stories that don’t map onto reality.”

Our real “wants” are the result of an unconscious cost-benefit analysis we make in our head, where the choice that comes out on top is our real want. It’s only when I really start doing my taxes that I’ll know this is what I want to be doing (probably because the urgency of the matter made the cost-benefit analysis tip in that direction).

David was trying to see if this concept of “wants” can be helpful in therapy but had trouble seeing how this might help someone who’s procrastinating.

Fabrice explained it like this: First, we need to realize that we are doing what we want in the moment; so, it’s a choice. Next, we can make our cost-benefit analysis conscious and see that we’re only considering short-term factors (e.g., it’s a lot more comfortable right now to be watching TV than doing taxes). Finally, we can develop some empathy for our future self (the one who will be pulling an all-nighter three weeks from now, or who will have to pay late fees) to reevaluate our cost-benefit analysis with more complete data.

Fabrice also explained that procrastination can sometimes be difficult to treat because it’s an addiction.
