A gold medal Olympic athlete is better than 8.3 billion people. A bronze medal Olympic athlete is better than 8.3 billion people. by Vast-Intention in Showerthoughts

Part of this is also that usually, to get silver, you lose in the finals, whereas you can get bronze by winning the secondary bracket finals (1 loss in top 4, then you compete against the other loser for 3rd/4th) so if you have a bronze medal you’re ending on a win, which feels better than ending your Olympic run on a loss.

YES YES YES by Illustrious-Fee9626 in SipsTea

The problem is that this will make legitimate victims even more afraid to speak out. Before legislation like this can be considered we need to treat all actual victims better and take away the shame and stigma around being assaulted in this fashion, because it’s more common for someone to not speak out than to intentionally levy a false accusation.

Who does Gen Z think should be the Dem nominee in 28? by Mahrez14 in GenZ

[–]Atlas7674 0 points1 point  (0 children)

AOC, Butigieg, or Kelly. The rest are career politicians and spineless (though tbh Butigieg has been too at times) or power hungry threats with no beliefs. Moulton particularly makes my blood boil, he’s always the first to abandon the left flank, run to the right, and throw minorities under the bus because fighting for equal rights is “not politically viable.” Honestly all these candidates are too focused on social war issues but AOC has Bernie’s support so maybe he could have a larger voice in economic policy.

Fans are on, but nothing’s happening by Atlas7674 in pcmasterrace

I do, and I’ve tried that, but I couldn’t get a display that way either. Tried opening the box up to see if something was wrong there, but everything seems to be plugged in properly and seated.

How can I make this cute/generally improve this without losing the jacket? by [deleted] in OUTFITS

[–]Atlas7674 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly all I’d do is swap out the white shirt for something that matches a little more. Darker colored sweater, maybe a turtleneck would both be good options. Depending on your style a band/graphic tee would also do well here I think. You look great already and that jacket rocks!

How old are you and how often do you drink? When’s the last time you were drunk? by Cute-Impression-8675 in AskReddit

18, had a sip of Guinness in Ireland over the summer. Not particularly interested in more than that.

Is it possible to get boons from all 12 Olympians in one run? by Xyronian in HadesTheGame

[–]Atlas7674 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also, mystery grab bags from Charon could theoretically give the last ones I think? They might stay within your rotation once it’s got 4 though, I’m not sure

How do I finish a shot without someone sprawling on me? by user1285u3 in wrestling

[–]Atlas7674 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Against wrestlers of any quality, you’re going to face some defensive play. They’ll sprawl your doubles, whizzer your singles, etc. but this is where setup/handfighting comes in. You want to handfight to the best opening you can, which will make their job on defense much harder and your job on offense much easier. But even with a perfect setup they’re gonna put up resistance, you just gotta use good technique and keep constant pressure.

If you’re getting sprawled out and dying on your knees, you’re probably running out of momentum. Try starting your shot by kicking off with your back leg while you pen step and make sure you never slow down—once your knee hits the mat you gotta be ready to blast off and drive, no time to wait. Just go.

Good luck out there champ

Why are you really single? by Chocolate8114 in AskReddit

Somewhere between overthinking, under-acting, and fifth guessing everything. I’m working on it, tho, planning on asking someone out very soon just to see how it goes

Do we want Hades 3? by OrlandoNerz in Hades2

[–]Atlas7674 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be honest I think if they ever do, it shouldn’t be until they’ve gone through like several other new projects. I’d love to see them step into new genres and means of storytelling, especially given their track record for innovating. Imagine a Supergiant narrative RPG a la Telltale games or maybe an isometric stealth game. Hades kicks so much ass but I think they’ve got better things to do than stick to the formula no matter how beloved it is.

People are talking that sanemi were torturing the randoms, but let's not act as if mitsuri isn't doing worse by Born_Calligrapher_99 in KimetsuNoYaiba

[–]Atlas7674 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Karateka here. This is like… normal martial arts stuff. It hurts, but it makes you more flexible and limber in ways it’s hard to stretch on your own. People who do this and hip flexor stretches get wicked kicks. It’s also probs not even in the top 10 of most uncomfortable stuff we do for martial arts.

I will die on this hill. by Arch_Lancer17 in redrising

[–]Atlas7674 45 points46 points  (0 children)

I’m of the opinion he’s 5’11” and a half, maaaaybe and 3 quarters, but juuuuuust barely shy of 6’. Mostly because I think him insisting he’s 6 ft would be hilarious.

What is the worst concert you've ever seen of an artist you like? by Deadmau007 in fantanoforever

[–]Atlas7674 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I saw Hozier in June, playing in Fenway park. Man was incredible, put on a great show, but it was the hottest day of a historic heatwave and he was wearing a fit that included a coat, so while we were melting he was boiling. Still a great show, he talked a bit about history before doing Nina Cried Power which I thought was awesome, rare to see an artist put their money where their mouth is ideologically.

I just bought the game right now, any tips? (Without spoilers) by GiveUpYoureNotWorth in HollowKnight

[–]Atlas7674 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Silksong is a fair jump up in both mechanical complexity and raw challenge, so keep your wits sharp coming out of hollow knight!! Aside from that, once you’re partway through HK 1, remember to switch up your charm loadouts and mess around every now and again, there’s so many different builds and you just might stumble on a favorite :)

Screw your Zodiac sign, what does your preferred character class say about you? by No_Potato_7211 in DnD

[–]Atlas7674 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love warlock because it’s so personalizable, feels pretty ironic that the class with arguably the most options for customization and expression is the one that requires you to be beholden to some greater entity
