Some form of torture. The thing about torture is you can always add "and then..."

Psychological and physical

Imagine being forced to rip off your significant other's fingernail.

And you might say "There's no way I'd do that"

Sadly you will. Either to save yourself or them from more torture.

You will do it, we all would. That's scary.

I'm half Mexican half Finnish. Strange mix. Pure white.

I understand the hardship

Random people do not think my father is my father.

I've been stopped multiple times by police walking with him to make sure I was okay when I was a kid. All good, just walking around the neighborhood with my dad lol.

Edit: It's also funny growing up people asking me who our gardener was. Also my dad.

I remember my grandfather telling me a story about how he didn't know which bathroom to use when he came to the US and someone told him to use the white.

Interesting

I'm a white hotel towel Mexican

Always thought it was strange to mark "White, Hispanic" on everything because that was an option always growing up. Like you all really do need to know my skin color don't you.

If you didn't know my last name you'd never guess I wasn't "American"

I remember watching a show called deadliest warrior. They had a Spartan on it. Their shield would fuck everyone up.

Unless you're using a two handed weapon having a defensive weapon on your non dominant hand was extremely powerful

If I remember right the shield was a better weapon than their sword.

Sure going against a weapon designed to beat a shield is a different scenario

Two Spartans, one with a shield other with a sword. I'd put my money on the Spartan with the shield.

The swordman has to get a clean strike or they are just going to get bashed to death

You have to turn debt into debit and then flip everything to get credit. It's simple.

It's because of the tree's "shadows" on the lake.

There is a dirty spot right where a shadow should be on the right trees and the tree in the yard blocks all the shadows of where the other trees should be.

If you removed the tree and cleaned the wall it wouldn't look like a lake at all.

A bat can bite you in your sleep (more likely to bite a human if rabid) and you may not even know you were bitten because they have tiny teeth.

Definitely worth notifying everyone that could have came in contact.
