Currently reading the core book of Exalted 2nd ed, a TTRPG about badass demigod heroes where the selling point is that they are badass demigods straight from square one.

Truly, the double standards are beoynd belief. When glorious Fang Yuan in a teenage body beats up 30 fellow students in a row, there is no complaint, but a female protagonist?

I'd expected you to be a DIY enthusiast who'd sooner splurge on a high-precision 3D printer and pirated .STLs.

According to the latest polls, while up to 70% of Russians consider themselves Orthodox, 6% of those have been to the church within the past month, and 10% commit to fasts. Polls are subject to selection factors, but we have a specific number of those who were in church for Orthodox Christmas in 2024 - 1.4m people, which is about 1% of Russians.
When the only thing you see of religion is the performative sprinkles on top, I would call that "transparently secular", yes. The church leadership being integrated into the bigwig club does not make it integrated into the entire country.
I won't be as uncouth as to count myself among the intelligentsia, but purely anecdotally as a Russian urbanite, among all the people I know, there is one that comes from a religious family that I know of, and none openly religious themselves.
The biggest tragedy of the whole PUA scene is that all those guru book authors learn all those tricks that work on women, but then many of them fail to learn tricks that work on men. So they come off as blowhards with their heads so far up their asses that few want to learn anything from them.
My working theory is that PUA/TRP is unpopular largely not because men don't want to be the Skittles guy. They don't want to be like Chateau Heartiste.

If the hypothetical woman received 20 or 30 lengthy, seemingly heartfelt messages from serious suitors of financial means, you would conclude that pretty much all the men were either lying or would flake at some point before the altar.
You smuggle in "serious" when there is no way to learn that they are serious until they are, in fact, at the altar.

(And should 99% of 20yo women magically start working out and seek techbro husbands, said techbros would become much pickier.)

In my experience of n=1 reading Chinese cultivation novels, the term has been "transmigration".
"Portal fantasy" sounds misleading to me. Like it's about a world where rifts open in random places and monsters come out to be slain for loot.

You might know it by the word "isekai". AKA that thing in fiction where people from our world go into a different world, usually unexpectedly and sometimes after death.

A man's teenage virgin immediately stops being a virgin and rather soon stops being teenaged, and observing men who were able to fulfill their preferences fully shows that they want not one woman who is a teenage virgin at one point, but more teenage virgins.

Remember, switching to your sidearm is faster than reloading. Or as Django put it, "I count two guns, nigga."

I still have to do the knuckles every time.
How it works is you count knuckles and valleys between them. Knuckle = 31, valley = not 31. Once you reach little finger knuckle, go straight back to index finger knuckle (July-August).
The currently figured out solution is that you keep paying 50% of your tax, no matter how "done" you are.
Evidently it's you who has to figure something out if you want change.

You confuse what you would like European leadership to do with what they want to do, and conclude that they can't do it.
The fact that Putin "can't" deal with Ramzan Kadyrov setting up a Muslim mini-theocracy within Russia's borders, or raise TFR, or any other number of things hasn't stoppsed him from sending hundreds of thousands to war. This is not a wargame, and failing to uphold one of the "basics of finctioning nation-states" does not magically deactivate all the other options a state has.

Judging by the tales of Russian mandatory army service, you do not need a common language in order to get your point across.

It seems there's already a word for what you're describing - culture.
Suppose his mission is "exfiltrate with the gold reserve"... he could pull it off, I think. I doubt Fort Knox has master-stranger protocols in place.
Even if accessing the vaults requires confirmation from off-site, he could probably break in and get out before reinforcements arrive.
Next time, they should put the gold on an island, since crossing water is supposed to be Dracula's weakness.

It would be interesting if the vinculum effects don't actively work unless you know who your donors are. Humanity just learns to live with vague feeling of being intensely loyal to someone, while taking all measures to avoid actually knowing their domitors' will.

Are Californian-Americans and Texan-Americans different ethnicities, then? Still doesn't appear clear-cutting to me. You could take two white Americans who could have by all accounts come from the exact same English town and they'd be on opposite aisles.

"If only my opponents actually followed what I think their principles are they would be shown as their true selves the complete opposite of who they are" is an argument that doesn't even work in practice against Christians. And Christians have a literal book they purport to follow the teaching of, on pain of infinite torture in hell.

I mean, I would at least try imprisoning the vampires and harvesting their blood to keep us all immortal. I don't recall all the caveats of being a ghoul though.

I've seen the justification that can be paraphrased as "most of them will be doing uninteresting and uninspiring work 9-5, uninteresting and uninspiring homework helps prepare them for the fact that not everything is gonna be exciting edifying self-directed projects all the time".

From what I heard of Haredis they produce little labor and just study the Torah professionally. This (the growth of total Haredi percentage) is good for a state only if they care about the total population as a number as opposed to what they do.
You want your high-TFR ultra-religious fraction to either leak moderates into the larger society, or for their religion to not get in the way of qualified labor.
You've suggested something along those lines a few times now and I can't tell whether you're serious. This sounds like something that would never work except on literal cavemen.
