IMPORTANT SITE REMINDERS ARE LISTED AFTER THIS RANT (so please read all of it in order to find the rules >:3)

On this mega I shall take the opportunity to rant about one of my favorite things: the Webnovel UNJUST DEPTHS!

Do you love transgenders?

Do you love communism?

Do you love queer romance?

Do you love killing fascists in a giant fucking mech?

Would a plotline with all of these things happening in a underwater retro-futuristic gundam setting intrigue you?

Especially if its actually really well written with good characters, rich worldbuilding, and a marxist leninist transfem author?

All of the answers should be: YES I DO or else I WILL BAN YOU

Since you obviously love all of those things then Unjust Depths is perfect for YOU yes YOU! It is DESTINY

The Imbrian Ocean is at a time of severe instability. The monarch of the vast Empire that spans its unjust depths (:3) is sick and nearing death, every territory of the ocean now vying to carve their own Destiny out of the chaos. From the Volk fascists pigmask-off , Zionists hamas-base (they literally will not die why are they still here oh my god), The ‘Anarchists’ (social chauvanists) lenin-dont-laugh in Bosporus, and the monarchs gui-trans of each vast noble domain, each vies for power and prestige no matter who they crush underfoot, but it would be a pretty depressing story without a bright light in the dark.

On the edge of the Empire sits the glorious Union! The (Soviet) Union soviet-chad is a socialist federation of three states (and one anarchist mountain left-unity-4 )that were formerly slave colonies under the Imbrian Empire until they broke away in a fierce liberation war. They have spent the last 20 years since then building themselves up. Whether they be Human bridget-disco , Shimmi kbity-how (Catgirls who usually follow a religion closely related to modern Islam), and Kattaran transshork-happy (a hybrid humanoid species with characteristics of sea life ranging from sharks to cuttlefish)building socialism side by side.

First lead under the revolutionary leader Dashka Kansal, then the Idealist Ahwalia who lead the country to near ruin in pursuit of building a utopia on pillars of sand, then under the scientific socialist three-heads-thinking leadership of the Grand Marshall of the Union, Bhavani Jayanskar (I love Jayanskar so much shes basically as if Stalin, Lenin, and Zhukov were rolled into the same person but was a black lesbian badass who wore the uniform REALLY WELL)(she aint the main character at all tho shes only in very few scenes i just love her so much). Under Jayanskar, the Union has been growing their economy to both eliminate hunger and give everyone a home chad-stalin , but also growing their military capabilities for the inevitable return of the Empire. The Union is alone, but with the people by its side nothing, not even Destiny, can snuff out true freedoms light. specter

As war wages between the Empire and Republic (basically underwater USA) once more over the lands between them, the facade begins to finally crack…

And a border conflict between the Empire and Union escalate, and the dreaded reconquest begins.

Amidst this turmoil, lives our main characters (yes there are multiple and all of them are lovely). Each of whom I personally love dearly, and are very well characterized. Many are soldiers of the Union, some are scientists, some are divers (mech pilots), some are lost strands finding new meaning after joining this band of Brigands

All are Communists steban

All serve the Union USSR

All would gladly give their lives to defending socialism comrade-stoic

but even they would have little inkling of the adventure set in store for them as the lands beneath the waves erupt in fire, fury, and revolt

Can these transgender badasses kick fascist ass?

Can they kiss? (oh my god please kiss ISTG THERE IS SO MUCH SHIPPING AHHHH ITS GLORIOUS)

FIND OUT HERE: https://unjustdepths.com/

please do or else I will pout incessantly

just try it pleeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaase i need to talk to someone about it after Cromalin went AFK

(I miss her, she was a real one)

    I think I already did some cubeposting a little bit ago so I’ll try to not repeat myself. If I didn’t or you missed it, I love solving the rubik’s cube, lot of patterns, very step by step and methodical, feedback (both knowing how I can do better and the tactile feedback of the cube), stimming, yaknow all good things.

    I’m trying to learn f2l. Right now I’m just solving with beginners method, very basic and boring. The basic idea is you solve the white edge pieces first, then insert the white corners where they belong, solving the first/white layer. To solve the second layer, which is just four edge pieces, you first position the edge piece on top, then move the corner it lines up with out and connect them, before inserting both pieces solved. After you do that for all the edges you’ve got the first two layers solved. This whole process is obviously slow, even having it down very well there’s a lot of wasted moves and even worse, cube rotations.

    f2l, short for first two layers, is solving the white corners and the second layer edges at the same time. I had put off learning it because there’s a lot of unique cases. (where and in what orientation each piece is currently in, each case has its own algorithm to solve). There’s a few ways to definite how many there exactly are, most cubers will say 41 f2l cases, but there are more, at least 36 others that can be good to know sometimes. Because I don’t actually know f2l yet I can’t give a great explanation of the cases, but I believe its something to do with how solved it is already. If all the other edges and corners are solved, there’s less places you might need to yoink a piece from.

    It looks like, watching this beginner/intuitive f2l video, that I won’t be bruteforce learning the cases though, you start out with four insertion algorithms (I already know two of them), and there’s a few steps to remember instead of learning every combination of cases. We’ll give it a shot, obviously it is learnable I just need to try.
