Go to a small local jeweler. They can often make you something custom for much less than the price of a chain store. They'll also be able to walk you through all the options and advantages of each. If you're having trouble finding that little mom and pop spot, Google jewelry repair. 9 out of 10 of those businesses will be more than happy to take on your project.

The 30 - 40 years part is key. You need to support them for a generation. You need to let the remnants of the old power structure get old and die. The country has to be full of people that were raised with the benefits of the new government.

You can look at Japan for a great example of this type of success.

Dark Knight, Fury Road, and... Hellboy 2019.

I feel like Hellboy is a hot take. It bombed and even other Hellboy fans seem to hate it.

This is my favorite movie. I own it in almost every format. I have the NES game complete in box, and I don't even own an NES.

I'm a little heartbroken, but I'm also curious if there is a way to get part of the tree.

I got my pocket in the first wave of releases, but I held off on the dock until earlier this year. My dock arrived a few days ago and I love it.

After using modded Gameboys and various emulators, the pocket is my favorite hand held. I still prefer the form factor ofa Gameboy micro, but the pocket's screen can't be beat.

The dock is a nice way to top access those same games on a big screen, but I don't think the pocket is the best option if you only want to play on a tv.
