(why would some wizards not just use their overwhelming strength to rob muggle banks, for example?).
How do you know they don't? It's not like the Harry Potter novels would catalogue every type of wizard-on-muggle crime that sometimes happens. If you're asking why it's not a thing that's known to happen among muggles: the criminals erase their memories, and if they don't then the Ministry finds out, erases everyone's memories and then cracks down extra hard on the criminals for breaking secrecy. CCTV was in a larval state in the beginning of the 1990s, if my google-fu is correct.
And it's a rare kind of wizard who would not only bother stealing muggle money but know where to look for it in a muggle bank.
As for the general magical realism question: the way J. McCrae's Pact does it is that there is an ancient magical working that defines most of humanity as Innocent and therefore actively shields them from seeing anything magical or comprehending it as magical, unless they opt in or get exposed too much (and in return they get protected from most Othersidely meddling).

The comment was pointing out cause and effect which you seemed to ignore (that Finland joining NATO came after Russia proved to be a belligerent neighbour).

What is your definition of "invade" that Russia didn't meet in 2022?

I don't think that kind of gigs is meant to be enjoyed without a few grams of substances I don't know much about inside you.
God literally designed much of childbearing's effects (as well as the sweat of the man's brow when he toils and the fact that both men and women wither and die) as a punishment. It is not a positively colored feature.
When the devs refuse to patch blatant bugs, modders will step in, e.g. Skyrim.
But of course I don't actually believe that, I just humored you. Evolution literally designed the woman's body. Evolution is a retarded vibecoder that doesn't have "make no mistakes, revise your work" in the prompt. If it works, it works. Once it stops working, then it will either get fixed, slowly, based on whichever iterations work the best, or the whole project gets canceled.

When I (male) go out for coffee it's typically a cappuccino or latte (I still can't tell the difference in taste), with a pastry alongside so I don't put any sugar in.

They're the same picture. The greedy company in a market where things change yearly is the one that survives, unlike the one that tried to do sustainability on a trend that turned out to be going nowhere.

I'm unaware of any successful examples of tech companies making apps thinking 18 years into the future. The smartphone boom itself is barely 18 years old.

Not true because of what married couples make
How do you propose that would affect the app's revenue stream - if you get married, then you owe the app money for the rest of your marriage?

The point that follows is that it is not a mismatch caused by a white projecting reasonable norms onto nonwhites. It is a white (a subset really) projecting unreasonable norms onto everyone.

Which demographic are the ones reading the sordid headlines and demanding that the state Does Something About It?

I think the protocols are set by using helicopter parents as the baseline (and probably the opinion makers) and the bathtub parents as scaremongering. In practice, that means a plurality of less-than-helicopter parents get raked by CPS because of a few bathtub parents, who are outliers and should not be counted.
If the nonwhite underclass is used by the state as an example to set the policies for regular people, it is a problem with the state.

I suppose this is only natural when instead of a 5 minute walk to the nearest grocery or drugstore, it takes a driving license. The notion some express that it's the peak form of living (because you get a backyard) continues to baffle me, though.

A rare case of marrying the princess and slaying the dragon being one and the same act.

Which race do you think supports helicopter parenting and infantilization the most and which the least?

I don't see how this is a problem caused by the family's race rather than state policy.

At 9 years old I'm pretty sure I'd be trusted to stay at home alone for a few days, maybe with a family member on call. I don't recall if it actually happened.
I think there is plenty of ground yet to be taken on AI greatly encomplexing one's life. For example, if you're not inclined to "plug in" all aspects of your life into a corporate AI (does corporate software such as dating apps currently inspire your trust???), you must go local model. Keeping up with the rest of the world on local models sounds like it will be as complex as a mom and pop store keeping up with Amazon.
Many people's job before hinged on being of slightly higher than average intelligence and having a lot of domain knowledge and legacy knowledge. Now an AI can simply figure out what they get paid to know and they'll have only their raw personal qualities to leverage once the market adjusts. Worst case scenario, you won't be able to make a living in IT unless you can be your own project lead and product manager. That makes life more complex.

If it's mandatory then how would the extra voting period be decisive? Wouldn't everyone eligible to vote cast the ballot either way, or am I misunderstanding how "mandatory" works here?

In the original Puss in Boots tale, the youngest son does exactly fuck all and ends up married to the princess because his cat was magical.

I looked her up, not only is she plastic, but she's plastic specifically in the "common makeup-caked thot" way that I very rarely hear any man say is more attractive than the alternatives.
If this is 11/10 to you then you should move to Russia, they're a dime a dozen here.

I don't know if there are any old characters in Genshin, but some other Asian games do the thing where a character is meant to be 50-80 and all that signifies it is 2 lines on the otherwise young face. Maybe a hunched over model if they're brave. It looks silly and lazy.
You said you don't understand "the concept of a pregnancy ruining the woman's body". How complicated is it? Empirically we see that the body is worse off, like a man's body is worse off after (literally) backbreaking work.
"God designed it for that purpose" doesn't demonstrate that it's not ruining, not all purposes engineered by God are meant to be good for the body. As you seem to agree w.r.t. Christian sacrifice and self-mortifying.
Perhaps you think that women should be glad to ruin their bodies with pregnancies, or men with labor, because it's overall a good thing, then say so instead of feigning ignorance about "what ever does ruining mean".
