@evan I'd give it to "qualified no"

@evan The games! War without tears!

This is a joke; it references a song, a non-profit organisation, and a television show where some entities are without frontiers or down to their last frontier. If you don't think that's fun or funny, feel free to skip the poll.
Also, I think it's interesting that Médecins sans frontières is translated as "Doctors Without Borders" and not "Doctors Without Frontiers". I think it says something about how at least in North American English, "frontiers" are seen as an empowering opportunity, not as a boundary or a restriction. Doctors without frontiers would be unambitious, lacking vision.

@evan I think it's a perfect translation. I don't see a good way to translate Electronic Frontier Foundation into French. (I have a hat, people ask what EFF is).

@evan I’ve been thinking a lot about how daring and the pursuit of new frontiers is the essence of US national identity, and how that’s tied up with our apparent inability to invest in the sustainability of anything good we’ve built.

As a writer obviously my characters. One could even view Kakuriyo, the Shadow Land, as a new frontier.

@informapirata @eticadigitale Maledetti... Certe pubblicità e contenuti in riproduzione automatica violerebbero anche le norme di accessibilità - non parliamo di quelle pubblicità poi che ti alzano il volume a palla

@Video_Game_King right, but once they've detonated and fainted they should be easy pickings right?

@aeva My assumption is other Pokémon don't eat them because they don't want to risk the explosion.
