"War is peace" - Literally 1984
I absolutely loved the Qual scene early on in season 1 as a metaphor for humans eliminating diseases through scientific research.
Scene Spoilers
Frieren tasks her new apprentice Fern with killing the ancient demon Qual. A demon so powerful that even she and the hero party could not defeat him 80 years prior and could only seal him away temporarily. Fern is confused as to how she could take on such a strong opponent but quickly realizes he only knows one basic attack spell.
Frieren explains 80 years ago this spell was the deadliest around and no mage could defend against it. Human mages ended up studying the spell endlessly and eventually figured out how it worked. Their research was so widely adopted that it became the basis of modern day offensive magic only a few decades later. Elves and demons might be powerful mages, but individually they could never match the speed at which humans collectively learn, teach, and innovate magic.
Rushing your decisions is a common red flag in scams. I'd say it's probably enough of a red flag to stop talking with them. You can try to slow play things and if they continue to hound you then it's almost certainly a scam. They're probably going to do something like:
Ask you for money to purchase things you'll need for your job (MLM/pyramid scheme)
Give you a large cheque, ask you to cash it, give a certain amount of the cash to someone, and keep the rest for yourself (cheque fraud).
The "Fuck Trudeau" people sure are having a hard time saying anything negative about Trump.
I believe it's Steam Keys can be sold anywhere but they have to be for the same price as buying the game through Steam itself.
Also, Japan. My understanding is that everyone and their shiba inu plays MonHun in Japan.
$250 per day is $91,250 per year. What the hell are you buying??
Requesting to be paid in nonsequential bills is something only a criminal would do, so the joke is that the purchase is illegal.
The idea is that if the person paying you is a cop, they'd give you bills they can track down later. I'm not sure if that's actually done in real life. Apparently a large percentage of printed cash is used for illegal deals, so I dont think criminals are too concerned about being traced by their cash transactions.
