Ereiam, Dustcan and I talked about how such a project on a wide scale would be unfeasible even it was practically possible, citing such factors as cost and the effects on the environment as well as the amount of effort needed to maintain such a levee over a long period of time.

Actually all I did was admit I have basically no knowledge on the subject of levees, and what little I could therefore contribute to the topic was wondering if there were more feasible solutions than reactive stopgap measures.

@Background Pony #62CA
Lol yeah. I don't know how I ended up on it, but I was on the everything filter instead of my own XD

@Badumsquish
Have you switched to an unmodifiable filter, eg. "Everything"? "Hide" and "Spoiler" only show up if you are set to a custom filter.

Humans will always find a way to solve problems.

Who is this Loona lady that I may be aquainted with?

@Background Pony #82F2
Iiiiiiiiii'm an idiot XD

@Ranch

Ocean Dub already did that.

@Badumsquish

There's something wrong with the tag dropdown menus. Instead of the "hide" and "spoiler" options it just now has a "filter" link that doesn't do anything other than go here :/

Are you on a filter you own (ie. not one of the defaults, or one someone shared with you)?

The South African covid mutation ignores antibodies from previous infections

A mutant strain of the novel coronavirus discovered in South Africa appears to be able to ward off antibodies from individuals who had previously recovered from COVID-19 — meaning if the new strain becomes widespread, we may see more people getting infected multiple times.

Not only could this interfere with the human population's ability to develop natural immunity, it could also hamper the efficacy of the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines. Both companies are distributing mRNA vaccines, which are different from traditional vaccines that train the immune system to develop antibodies against pathogens by injecting weakened or dead versions of the disease-causing agents into the body.

The South African strain is not the only one raising concern. There is a new strain in Brazil that the scientists argue "also has changes at key positions" in ways that could impair antibodies' effectiveness against the disease. Then there is a strain in the United Kingdom known as B117 that, though not deadlier than previous strains, is more transmissible.

You're a furry then.

As far as I could see, all you had to say in response was, "Well, a tiny island did it so we can too", some vague notions about incorporating other plans to mitigate environmental damage without considering how the presence of a giant levee would affect them, and "this is totally the same as universal healthcare so not supporting this makes you a hypocrite".

@Twi Clown
indeed it is incredibly stupid. is just more needless division over the stupidest & most trivial of things.

i know i'm late to responding but i wanted to show i agreed & it takes me a while to think of what i want to say.

@someguy845
Done, and categorized a handful of other tags from the thread.

@Mildgyth
Cherry Cream has already been taken by another pony.

@tehwatever
She do not have name just like everybody else in this. She is just refereed as The Hero or Chosen Hero Haruhi is just inspiration for her design and thats why fans call her that way, just like Guts, Lancer and others
Did you actually seen GS anime or read manga?
But I question why would you if you dislike very core concept of it

@MagpulPony

boop

@Background Pony #590F
Yay ^ ^

@ShadowBolt Platinum
We need more black/pink underwear.

I'm not a furry, but I really like Loona the wolf.

Been watching Happy Tree Friends. What if the reason there hasn't been a new episode since 2016 is because the show would never survive on current YouTube?

@DeathCloud
I like her much better already. I never read the LN and WN so I wouldn't know.
Anyway What's her name? I need her in my life.
I prefer flat out, blatant unapologetic SUE characters than a character tailor made to suit an audience, but also spliced in with self-insert…

HARUHI?
As in…SUZUMIYA? She's GOD! What'd you expect?!

Two background EqG characters who were recent poll winners in the Naming Background Ponies thread:

Mimi Mimosa
Mauve Violette

What if there was a bad guy who when they killed you, it looks like your soul was obliterated but actually it is teleported to another dimension.

I think that would be cool. The cast think a character is gone forever only to find out they aren't they are just somewhere else. A new Adventure Awaits!
