Current Projects/Freelance work
I am a voice talent and script writer for Faerun History
I have a much smaller personal Youtube channel that I use to make videos on various subjects. Only been making videos for 2 years, but it's growing!
I'm the host of a Science Fiction & Fantasy Podcast where I interview authors of the genre.
Interests (Includes but is not limited to)
Writing/Reading (Love writing and I own too many books)
Video Games (Been a gamer for close to 23 years now)
Working Out/Martial Arts (Wing Chun/Oyama Karate mostly. Some historical swordplay as well.)
History (Military History is my specialty)
Zoology
Art (Mostly Illustrations. Used to be good. Am picking it back up)
Voice Acting/Singing
Tabletop Gaming (Started late in the game. Been at it for 3 years. I was the kid who bought the monster manuals and D&D books just for the lore for the longest time. I've played 3.5e, 5e, Star Wars D20, Edge of the Empire, PF, and PF2.)
Weaponry of all kinds
Anime (mostly action/shonen. DBZ & YYH being my favorites)
Movies (Action/War/Drama films being my go-to)
Music (Rock of all kinds, as well as historical folk songs, sea shanties, pub songs, a bit of classical music, etc)
Guitar (am learning to play, but being left handed makes it challenging)
There's more but if you care enough you can PM me :P
Roleplay F.A.Q.
Fantasy, Sci Fi, and Historical are my genres. Fantasy being my favorite and Sci Fi/Historical being close seconds.
Advanced / Nation / 1x1 / Casual (only in certain circumstances)
I generally write at the 'Advanced Level' meaning 4+ Paragraphs with good grammar.
I am usually busy with many projects and RPs, but if you wish to do a 1x1 with me, you'll need to present your case. Those I already do it with have my trust as a Roleplayer.
I love many, many fictional universes so me trying to list them all is an effort in futility!
I think the homeowner (son) had the right to defend himself and their property, and while I think there should be no legal action against him, I do think that shooting one person, then another, then another, is a pretty murderous thing to do. You'd think shooting one would give the other two the message. No matter how you slice it, I think ending 3 lives is a bit excessive even if it was his legal right.
Not buying that. I waited 14 months in 2014 and I'm still waiting after 18 months in 2016-2017. Granted, sample size of one, but frankly it's the one I care the most about.
I understand. And granted, I know less about this than you who have experienced it, or @Penny as a physician. I'm just going by this study here, and it seems unbiased to me. Although now that I look at it again, it was published in 2014 so the days the waiting period lessened 119 days would be between 2013-2014. I find it kind of weird that it would have 8.92 million patients then like it is today as you say. The number just hadn't changed. I'm just going by the chart. I'm not a socialist, so I'm not advocating for tearing down an entire system and hope for the best with a system that has failed other countries in the past. I'm simply saying it's a huge, complicated process, and perhaps that while it's not good, it used to be even worse. And I think that affordable healthcare is a good thing.
It's also because honestly no, we can't handle it. We're political children more concerned with soundbites than policy, and we'll vote for anybody who says the right thing. Know who was in charge of the VA, until he ran for president? I'll give you a hint, he's the one proposing universal healthcare. Why the fuck would we listen to him?
If you mean people hear what they want to hear, I agree. They want to be coddled and agreed with. However under president Obama, and presumably under Bernie Sanders the waiting days of the VA went down 119 days between 2014 and 2015 I think? And just because he's wanting universal healthcare doesn't mean he'd establish it ineffectively if it was put into action. He wouldn't be in charge of it like he was with the VA, as far as I know at least. I think you're right that it's odd that people would think Bernie is the pinnacle of healthcare reform, but I also need to admit that Mitch McConnel and his ragtag group of ruiners are doing a whole lot worse at what they are attempting.
