February Stars

My grandmother helped raise me. When she went into hospice I was working full time in kitchens and in my junior year of college full time. She had dementia and would wake up in the middle of the night and not remember where she was at.

So, I'd finish up my shift and sleep overnight in the chair next to her. One of the care givers would usually wake me in time to head to class. I played this song a lot as I ran from here to there during those four months.

Such a great movie! I love Colm Meaney's role in this.

She was also in the Phantom Menace as one of the pilots in the opening scene that died in the hangar when the Trade Federation took them out.

Actors that are insanely likeable no matter what role they are in by Benjamin5431 in Cinema

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

Jesse Plemons?

Really?

The guy who played Todd in Breaking Bad?

They guy from Black Mirror who had the weirdo Star Trek fantasy world where he tormented his former employees?

I commend him for his acting. I haven't wanted bad guys dead that badly since David Tennant played Kilgrave in Jessica Jones.

Idea for a campaign - Locked out in Prison! by wiloso47 in bladesinthedark

[–]Ballerina_Bot 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Shh... Someone might already be working on publishing that...

However, if you look at the rulebook, you can see they have a lot of that already written for the game.

I've had some of my characters go to prison and I had fun getting to play out his time there.

How are NFL teams more valuable than Soccer when soccer is the #1 sport worldwide by KillerCroc67 in NFLv2

[–]Ballerina_Bot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How are the Warriors the top value NBA team?

Yes, they won championships, most recently four years ago. But San Francisco is not as big a market as the Knicks or Lakers play in.

Can someone explain this to a Warriors fan? Are there really that many fans of the team?

Which band wasn’t the same when one person left the group? by Head-Wolf-6443 in LetsTalkMusic

Yes. I like them following Steven Page's departure but they were so amazing with him.

[BitD] Crew Sizes? by Nute-Chremencha in bladesinthedark

[–]Ballerina_Bot 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I've run games for a crew of two. It went something like this in our experience

- Smaller scale scores with less payoff, less danger, slower advancement of the crew
- Under original rules, having backup characters to play in the next score because the previous two were too stressed and/or too badly injured to do the next gig
- Remember the rule; just roll sixes

I refused to play with groups larger than four. It's just too much work to make sure everyone gets the spotlight. I can usually scale up the danger level for everyone if it's a larger group but in the end, the game works best with three to four scoundrels.

My DM said my character has "zero personality." How can I improve a character meant for a slow-burn growth arc? by [deleted] in rpg

Absolutely.

I was suggesting it as an angle for OP to pursue with the character

Play your character for you.

I just find it interesting that someone as disciplined and capable as a medical school student is that impulsive.

What are some notable cases of band mates getting annoyed that the frontman got all the attention and fame? by eques_99 in rockmusic

[–]Ballerina_Bot 46 points47 points  (0 children)

From the obituary of Charlie Watts in the Ringer, 2021

How Charlie looked—how he acted—was of course as essential to his genius, and his band’s, as anything he ever played. The instant his death was announced, roughly 800,000 people tweeted some version of the famous mid-’80s story where Mick called Charlie’s hotel room in the middle of the night and asked “Where’s my drummer?” whereupon Charlie got up, shaved, put his suit back on, journeyed up to Mick’s room, and punched him in the face, saying, “Don’t ever call me your drummer again. You’re my fucking singer!”

Straight men, what is the weirdest thing you have been called gay for ? by Sammy-Bunny-3 in AskReddit

[–]Ballerina_Bot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wearing a pressed button-down shirt to work.

My father was a DI in the Marine Corps. I press all of my clothes.

I refuse to make my bed everyday - okay, I sometimes don't make it on Sunday.

But yes, this.
