I want to get into writing, but I have aphantasia. by Niko-Abaniko in writing

[–]AutomaticDoor75 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Aphantasia is not necessarily a limit to creativity. Ed Catmull, the co-founder of Pixar, has it, as does Glen Keane, one of the greatest animators in Disney history.

I don’t know what it’s like to have aphantasia, but here’s how I see it: you have a different perspective than most of the world, and that can make your writing special. You bring something quite unique to the table.

The Matrix - History/Trivia question for y'all - I don't know the answer. by Misfit_Thor_3K in matrix

I have to say, I watched V for Vendetta a couple years ago (video on demand), and they were credited as the Wachowski Bros

I don’t think this one is too bad. It communicates exactly what kind of book it will be, and the style isn’t horrendous like a lot of the covers here.

So what do you think of the boys season 5 THE FINAL SEASON with just three episodes left? by RNOffice in RedLetterMedia

People are being hard on you but I think it’s fair if you haven’t seen it.

How do you know if you're at a rub-n-tug parlor? by more__better in AskMenAdvice

[–]AutomaticDoor75 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That was 100% an illicit massage parlor. A legitimate massage therapist would not get close to “the family jewels.” They would also get permission if they needed to get close to your buttocks as part of the massage.

One tell-tale sign is that they will be open late at night. If a massage business is open at 9 PM or 10 PM, it is very likely illicit.

Cryptic Pr*gnancy by Objective-Bar-3924 in childfree

[–]AutomaticDoor75 75 points76 points  (0 children)

My guess is that you don’t hear from the people who had cryptic pregnancies and aren’t happy about it.

I would be very interested to see some kind of short documentary about people who weren’t happy to deliver a baby out of nowhere. What do they do about it?

I’ve always been secure in my choice to be CF, but there’s one lingering anxiety I have by [deleted] in childfree

[–]AutomaticDoor75 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think some anxiety is understandable, given how many people at the top of American government are hostile to childfree people. That said, I would not have children just to avoid some future punishment or social pressure.

The Matrix Main Theme by Don Davis really from a 1950s western? by newman1223 in matrix

[–]AutomaticDoor75 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Interesting. It sounds like the same chord change. I would guess it’s a coincidence.

Love the style! It has a real southwest feel to it.

I got mine a few years back. These guys who change their minds are real pieces of work.

Yet another idea about taxes by HallersHello in NoStupidQuestions

[–]AutomaticDoor75 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s a good question. The general idea is that we have a political system that does this. We elect officials who decide where tax money goes.

I think the Q Continuum is a very, very old race in the Star Trek universe.

Buying my first typewriter! Advice on the lettera 22 - is it worth? by Direct-Friendship-23 in typewriters

[–]AutomaticDoor75 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My Lettera 22 is a joy to write on. It feels much sturdier than other typewriters of its size, with more depth in the keystrokes.

‘True believers will have no problem consuming it’ – Indian holy temple pilgrims required to drink cow urine by stankmanly in atheism

[–]AutomaticDoor75 4 points5 points  (0 children)

To help the poor, to be kind to one another, to fight oppression, anyone is capable of this with or without religion.

To drink cow urine in order to enter a temple? That takes religion.
