  • While I don’t have any of your Shinies, I can trade a bunch of my low rarities on your wishlist.

    Would accept help in competing the new pack if you have any spares or from the Deluxe Pack.

    I am cheekapoo and I have sent a request. Good luck on the hunt!

    Edit: I lie, I have a shiny Scyther and a few other random ones. I don’t particularly care about shiny cards so if you wish it, it is yours.

    Honestly, I have a hard time staying interested in hobbies due to this.

    Just so hard wired to think of expression as having some capital, either financial or social.

    Any time I have some thought, I am asking… Hmm is there value in this? I understand expression for expression’s sake but we are social animals in the end. And that need for validation taints it.

    I grapple with it. But getting better. Have some private hobbies and slowly pecking at them.














  • Thank you, didn’t know about them.

    I’m not advocating for pacifism but maybe something in a same vein as a viral satirist cartoon can be considered a protest. A public performance, coordinated with a vision, that doesn’t always slide into “looting and fighting”. As you say, we should be ready for it but it’s a last resort since the opponents want the protestors to you turn violent to discredit and ignore.

    Easy examples like Boston Tea Party, Singing Revolution or Salt March.

    I would love a month long general strike but would accept random mildly coordinated actions towards a greater purpose.
