This is what the right see's the left doing. And why the big push for voter ID. And also the big push back against illegal immigration. Open boarders and sanctuary cities and states draws in illegal immigrants to Democrat run cities and states. The census counts people who are there, whether they are citizens of this country or not. And the house of Representatives gets seats according to the census. Having massive numbers of illegal immigrants in Democrat run cities and states, means they have more power and more votes in congress. And also with electoral votes during Presidential elections, which means they are gerrymandering things in their favor. That's why Democrats are against ICE that are shutting down the boarder and deporting illegal immigrants. If illegal immigrants weren't counted in the census for political purpose. You would see a totally different narrative coming from them on ICE and immigration. That's also why democrats POLITICIANS push so hard for welfare programs "that don't check for fraud". If they can get people on welfare, and make them dependent on the Democrat party for their welfare checks, then they have to vote Democrat. Whether or not people are fraudulently on the programs doesn't matter. They just need them on the programs and voting for Democrats if they want the money. Add questionable voter integrity to that... That's NOT a healthy system of government. Let me be clear. I'm not talking about democrat voters. Most voters see these programs' purpose with the best of intentions in mind. Why shouldn't we as country helps our fellow citizens in need. But politicians' need for power and the money they get from being in power, feeding their need to be in power, corrupts the intentions of their voters. And conservative politicians aren't exempt from that. They are lining their pockets the same way too. Back on topic... Right now the Supreme court is litigating birthright citizenship when neither parent is a legal citizen of the country. The reason this is a problem is because China, for one, has literally made it big business to send Chinese citizens to America to give birth, and gain citizenship in American. They then return to China and raise their children with Chinese values, and can even be members of the Chinese military and government, and still hold office in the US as an American citizen, and vote and influence US elections. Among other things, it's a huge national security risk. Most other nations have outlawed it. China especially doesn't allow what they're doing here in our country to happen in their own. Conservatives aren't trying to be isolationist. They are just trying to preserve the country. Preserve the vote. And not have it taken over from the outside.

I miss being able to watch 50 episodes of something like Eureka Seven, Attack on Titan or other good shit. Its just too long nowadays and i got other shit to do.

Howdy y'all! Wondering if anyone is going to Weebcon 03APR26 (tomorrow) - 05APR26 and would be interested in hanging out! I plan to cosplay Himmel, Light, and potentially Yuta. Shoot me a message :D

today I did some detailed plugging in of what I do at my job and ran it through ChatGPT to give me a range of if I'm getting paid fair market value.

a good realistic manga (though i never finished it) was Konodori, about a doctor who deals with pregnancy (forget what the type of practice that is) https://www.nippon.com/en/ncommon/contents/japan-topics/2243412/2243412.jpg

finishing ranma, starting inuyasha, middle of blue lock, preorder out for Mujina, finished Tokyo Tarareba Girls, dandadan ongoing (reading online but collecting the manga as i go)

the new fate is the best this season though, https://media.tenor.com/9qDma-zgasAAAAAM/fate-strange-fake-fate.gif

I went through the darkness and fire today to be refined. I had my faith tested and broken today but jesus held on to me when i couldn't hold on. What I learned that got me through it that now remains with me is I'm still loved. Think of any excuse or feeling your still loved. The voices had no counter that could continue to hurt and confuse me I'm still loved defused it all. Knowing how loved you are is powerful and protects you. I don't question it anymore that leaves doorways to the enemy. Before being put to this fire I questioned it. Now it's refined faith in me that I'm loved. Hopefully God chill on me that wasn't fun I was lost. I'm not as strong as I think I am but I love running my mouth. How sweet it is to be loved by you and unchanging love. One you can hold on to that's steady and sturdy in times of need. The unfailing love of God thank you. I couldn't see your love clearly till it saved me. Your love gave me strength. This fire forced me to rely on your love and acknowledge it as the only thing worth holding on to where I was iffy about relying on it and acknowledging it before. You gave me strength when I was weak thank you.

@wiz999999 Looks great man Also this is my own personal thread where I post my own art, you might wanna post here for future stuff: https://maiotaku.com/topics/52927?

Well, well, well. They couldn't take the L so now they wanna collab. LOL Nintendo is so pathetic, you can't make this shit up

@meisterman1985 I don't get it. Erase your faith in what? If your referring to God I hope you keep your faith. If your referring to your diagnosis keep faith in that aswell. Don't let people steer you to some diagnosis your not. But, i don't know what your referring to keeping your faith in. Only you know your limitations. I don't think your a full blown narcissist. Those who use there diagnosis as a excuse for bad behavior I see how it could seem like they have narcissistic traits but idk I'm not qualified to tell. There are some who can't help there situation because they are underdeveloped and lack basic understanding to change. The excuse comes from two places helplessness or feeling no need to adjust. Or it could come from a 3rd place no awareness at all. For me I still feel helpless but I have awareness and the will to try and adjust and overcome my limitations. Edit: Lot's of people let the word impossible stop them. They say you will never understand this or it will be hard for you. But, I'm not the type of person to just accept my limitations and that be who I am. I am more than these limitations. Now I validate a heart that has overcome what many deem impossible. And, it feels good. But, not everyone wants or feel a need to change.
