Are you seriously trying to bait me into saying "It's not hell it's sushi rice?" Really? Anyways, the only true answer to [Blank] or [Blank questions is Or. Fight me.

The Battle of All Things II: Match Update
Only a few matches remain in the Battle of All Things II and, with the close of this one, we now know who will be facing off against the Badger!
Although the RMB was once again reignited about the nature and history of communism, the quiet campaign for the mantis shrimp proved that it was right at home under the red sea. As the workers of the world arrived to distribute provisions according to their need, the population of Refugia remarxed on just how many people a single mantis shrimp can feed when it's 300cm tall. It was thoroughly eaten, 17-35.
Amiyoka receives a Season 1 Testlandia to fund additional research of this exquisite species. Hopefully it wasn't the only one.
The next match begins immediately with The Salt Flats vs. A Horse Thicc Enough to Carry You:

Do you want mass amounts of table salt or a chonky honse
Chacapoya, Portmanteau, Tiralta, Falafelandia, Lycanjeskai
the horse is very thicc and it can carry you
what can salt flats do for you?
Chacapoya, Liphia, Portmanteau, Tiralta, Falafelandia, Jazur, Lycanjeskai
You have a Thicc Horse card. Do you have a Salt Flats card?

Counterpoint: Salt is all around us
Sylh Alanor, Liphia, Portmanteau, Tiralta
Why would you not want to leave the salt flats? Sure, they are beautiful, but the chances of you dying are high and you'll forever be unable to return to your home and see your loved ones and friends.
Portmanteau, Tiralta
The mods removed The Salt Flats card as a precaution. It was deemed too dangerous for dissemination.
Chacapoya, Portmanteau, Tiralta
Countercounterpoint: salt is edible and the horse... can be more thicc.

Do you know how stressed junior high school students(Grade 3 of junior high school) are in China?
It(Class) starts at 7:00 a.m. and ends at 8:20 p.m.
Even so, I have to write my homework until 12:00, and I have to get up at 6:00 to go to school.

I even have classes on Saturdays. I have to go to the training Institute outside on Sunday.
So I have a cold today.
Tiralta, Jazur, Lycanjeskai, The Blue Fire
In the official bracket, I find the card/description for The Salt Flats to be very compelling. "Nobody leaves the Salt Flats." Also it scores very high in Magic and Spirit.
your life will be like never leaving the salt flats
Tiralta, Falafelandia, Chong Qing, Lycanjeskai
The surrender of the mantis shrimp got me in the top 1k for international artwork! Maybe my laziness paid off after all :D

I forgot to post a QOTD sooo
QOTD: What is your favorite band?
FOTD: Today, March 23, marks the day that a container ship ran aground in the suez canal, in 2021. Feels so long ago, huh? March 24 marks the day Comet Shoemaker-Levy 9 was discovered by Carolyn, Eugene Shoemaker, and David Levy.

Arch Enemy
Tiralta, Jazur, Waywards Edge
Probably Fall Out Boy (and my favourite album of theirs is Mania)
Chacapoya, Sylh Alanor, Araine, Waywards Edge
Three Days Grace and Twenty One Pilots. My favorite artists are probably Novo Amor and Cavetown. I also second Fall Out Boy.
Chacapoya, Tiralta, Waywards Edge
got my 1% badge for political freedom :D!! true amiyokan spirit lololol
Delta Vega Iv, Araine, Liphia, Tiralta, Waywards Edge, Uwuguaya, The Blue Fire
Fall Out Boy! (From Under the Cork Tree/Infinity on High gang though)
My favourite song is a collab between two different bands whose work when separated from each other isn't nearly as great, so I'll go with the most consistently great band.
Chacapoya, Araine, Tiralta, Jazur, Waywards Edge
Oooh nice choices!
Araine, Waywards Edge
CAVETOWN IS SO GOOD
I've been to a few concerts and just
It's amazing
My favourite song (not just of cavetown but in general) is boys will be bugs
Araine, Tiralta, Jazur, Waywards Edge
I can't say I have a specific favorite band but Mother Mother, twenty one pilots, Set It Off and Caravan Palace are among my favorites.
I've only seen Mother Mother in person though, in St. Petersburg back in October last year.

Did you know that "U 2" can help in BOAT? Vote for the Salt Flats today in order to maybe have a shot at escaping.
Chacapoya, Junitaki-Cho, Portmanteau, Tiralta
Oooh I gotta know!!!
And my favorite band is easily The Oh Hellos, followed by Hozier and FOB.
Araine, Junitaki-Cho, Portmanteau, Tiralta, A Million Dreams, Jazur
Oh, it's Black Swan by Dan Avidan and TWRP. I think TWRP has extremely cool ideas in their music, but it doesn't always work for me, and Ninja Sex Party songs are extremely catchy and sound great, but the overwhelming edginess of crude lyrics gets reeeeeeeeeeeeeally tired for me. When you put TWRP's musical creativity with Danny's singing, I think they make the most incredible music (Starlight Brigade being a community favourite)
Dan Avidan is such a good musician though- NSP's cover songs are usually better than the originals imo, and I think Skyhill's album is also incredible, to the point where I wish they'd done more music.
Delta Vega Iv, Chacapoya, Araine, Portmanteau, Tiralta, A Million Dreams, Jazur
Do yÂ’all have a favorite Fall Out Boy song? I donÂ’t think I do but my favorite album is American Beauty/American Psycho
Chacapoya, Sylh Alanor, Portmanteau, Tiralta, A Million Dreams, Jazur
I have a lot of favourite-tier FOB songs, but I thiiiiiink if I had to choose one, it'd be Bang the Doldrums.
Chacapoya, Araine, Portmanteau, Tiralta, A Million Dreams, Jazur
OOOOH heck yeah!!! And that makes a ton of sense lol, starlight brigade is so good.
Sylh Alanor, Portmanteau, Tiralta, A Million Dreams, Jazur
It's extremely close, but it's either Stay Frosty Royal Milk Tea or My Songs Know What You Did In The Dark, I think.
Chacapoya, Araine, Portmanteau, A Million Dreams
GOD THAT'S SO HARD TO PICK. Either Bob Dylan or HOLD ME TIGHT OR DON'T
ALSO GREAT CHOICES YALL MY GOD

Can you imagine the aggressive f-250 driver vs the Salt Flats? Vote SF today!
Melenavenia, Tiralta, A Million Dreams, Amiyoka, The Blue Fire
If the thicc horse defeats the salt flats then you will have a 100% chance of escaping, not just a "Maybe". Vote Thicc Horse!
Delta Vega Iv, Melenavenia, Tiralta, Jazur
EXACTLY! Salt Flats ftw if only so that we can see the BEST MATCHUP OF ALL TIME, just like a Ford commercial
Melenavenia, Tiralta
Regrettably for you, the Salt Flats losing means that you will forever be trapped, forever wandering, because your thicc horse beat them and ran off, leaving you without any way to escape.
Melenavenia, Tiralta
Well, it actually depends on how you think of the salt flat's defeat. In the Legend of Korra for example, when the mist thing is defeated, everyone inside is released. Could you give me an example of the opposite being true?
Tiralta, Jazur
I don't know why y'all think the Salt Flats taking on the Aggressive F-250 Driver would be a good match. The Salt Flats are flat and open, a perfect place for a big truck to drive on. The Driver would be literally driving all over their competition.
Meanwhile if the Aggressive F-250 Driver takes on the Thicc Horse we can talk about horse power versus horsepower.
Araine, Junitaki-Cho, Tiralta, Jazur, Morrigan, The Blue Fire
I am torn enough that I havenÂ’t voted yet.

I just remembered that today is a palindrome day
Delta Vega Iv, Portmanteau, Tiralta, Amiyoka, Lanassia
What's that? palindrome?
Tiralta, Jazur
I don't listen to nearly as many bands as I do soloists. But if I had to pick one... The Marias or Depeche Mode x3
A word, phrase, or sequence that reads the same backward as forward; so, like tacocat or racecar. Read them backwards! They both say tacocat and racecar forwards or backwards.

Big questions in life: why couldn't the word ford palindrome be a palindrome, and why is the word "abbreviation" so long?

I confess that I haven't really listened to her albums since "Born to Die" was released. But I really loved that initial album, to the point that it became one of my all-time favorites. I'd love to hear any recommendations for other albums of hers to check out, should you be willing :)

Upon consideration I have realized that there are gonna be palindrome days until March 30th
