Fantasy is right-leaning while SF is left-leaning. Easy peasy.

I begun judo a few weeks ago. The teacher was clear: it may not be useful in actual fight, but we don't fight often in the real life. But it's great for your body, spirit and it will teach you how to fall without hurting yourself. And these things are way more useful than self defense.

And before that, pooping was a social function .

I don't know why, I find it far easier from my computer. KDE Connect saved my (professional) life.

That's exactly what an IT person would say to hide the fact they watch what I do on my computer!

So how would the judges be appointed under this system and why is it better than having them chosen from the people?

By competition and diploma. A judge is a legal technician. Why elect him on political bases? We do not elect an engineer on political criteria, we take the one who seems the best among the candidates.

If the current system hasn't prevented political influence, then the method of choosing obviously isn't guaranteeing unbiased judges anyway, so what's the point in keeping it as opposed to elected judges?

What's the point to elect them?

Strong and diverse press, strong and enforced rules against politically motivated decisions. A judge should know that, if they don't strictly follow the law, they'll lose their job. This won't make the thing perfect, but far better than officially political judges.

The GBC was my first console (I had the green one), I feel so much nostalgia seeing these!

But the price is far to high for my little pockets.

He heard the story, but he didn't see the episode, so he reconstructed it as he imagined it.

I will find you.

The character is the only one with sunken cheeks; and thinness is a stereotype of poverty; the walls reveal bricks in places, so the house is not properly maintained, another stereotype; the tablecloth follows a fashion, the Vichy, dating from the 30s and associated with the elderly, and the fact of using old and/or outdated clothes/furniture/decor is yet another stereotype. For an image that has few details, that's a lot.
