Hard science is like a sword, and soft science is like fear. You can use both to equally powerful results, but even if your opponent disbelieve your stabs, they will still die.

Indeed! Despite never hearing about it, there's actually a south and central america (though the latter is part of the north american continent). This requires separating the americas into pieces! It's honestly almost amazing that an entire continent, home to many millions of individuals and one of the largest economic blocs in the world, gets almost no news coverage in many places.

I heard SOMETHING about a 'solar system', but I'm pretty sure someone made it up. The planets there are supposedly round! Sounds like crap.

I... think so? I dunno, don't remember much after falling into that blackhole.
Oi! Watch yourself. The term is 'Spacetime Regions of Colour', and I'll thank you to remember it.

Every time someone in the last couple of pages mentions CA, I think "Duh, of course California is part of North America".
<_<;

That's kind of what I thought on this page too.

My dad just said the computer "probably lowers my defenses because I stay inside all day."
I think at this point he's just playing pin-the-tail on the donkey, and pinning every single bad thing on me playing computer games.

Even if he were right, what's the alternative? There's a three meter wall with electric fencing on top surrounding my house; I can't go past that. The only other thing you can do besides walking in circles is using the trampoline, which is pretty fun but not something you do all day.
Uh.

Are you in prison?

She's in South America with a Pair of Fundies as Parents.

Well, she IS in Honduras and I guess in an area with really bad crime, but uh, electric fencing???

Is every house on the block like that or something? That's not a house, that's a freaking FORTRESS. Too bad it's not a dwarven one though.

The city has the highest person-to-murder ratio of any city in the world, IIRC.

I have a question Caroline, do you wear body armor when you leave the house? Because the whole setting is horribly dystopian.

Fucking GEEZE! In that situation, I would absolutely not go outside without full body armor, perhaps two layers of it. Or just never go outside.

The description alone makes Baghdad during some of the worse times of the Iraq War (not including the aeiral bombing) sound safer.

What the heck is so messed up about Honduras that the city looks like something out of a postapocalyptic dystopia? Okay maybe not postapocalyptic, but severely dystopian.

Central America is wracked with drug cartel violence.

Mexico (which is in NORTH America btw) seems to have it worst, or maybe it's just that I hear about it more often because it's a negboring country.

I wouldn't be surprised if even babies wore body armor, but that has the problem of making them immobile and possibly impede breathing.

From what I've read, and mind you I'm no expert, severe drug cartel violence is a problem from Mexico all the way to Brazil and Peru. Colombia certainly has massive issues with it.

Central America is wracked with drug cartel violence.

And, more specifically, I believe Honduras is one of the main stops along the drug route from South America into the US. Thus drug cartels.


One good argument for cannabis legalisation. They tend to derive a lot of their income from that. It goes, they get a LOT weaker.

Or, you know, not doing drugs you didn't grow yourself. :v

I think cocaine is the main product, though.
