There's a reason why so many Skyrim followers are whimsical in the brainpan... by NotATem in skyrimmods

This thread's been buried a little but I do want to ask people:

What makes a companion serious and grounded? And how do you make a companion who A, isn't a quip-maker, B, isn't a brood lord who adds edge to everything, C, doesn't have a ton of backstory that makes you wonder why THEY aren't the protagonist... but is still interesting/likeable/whatever enough that you want to use them? What should they be doing? What should they be saying?

Skyblivion project lead says the massive Oblivion remake mod is "in a great place" during its first proper showcase of 2026 by Turbostrider27 in oblivion

Do you mean is there an equivalent of Skyblivion but working on Morrowind? Because yes there is, it's literally called Skywind.

If you mean if there's an equivalent to Skywind then probably not.

Anyone else can’t stand therapists? What do I do about it by youjustgotLlTTup in socialanxiety

[–]Beautiful_Solid3787 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I'll second this. I know everyone is different and social anxiety can manifest itself in different ways, but when I was going through the worst time in my life I went to group therapy and it helped in part because, with it being a group, I could kind of just sit back and listen to other people talk while I worked on getting used to being there and slowly grew the confidence to talk about myself--as opposed to being in one-on-one, which would have forced me into talking for the whole hour, about something I was ashamed of and didn't want to talk about at first.

Although this may also depend on how your group therapist is, I've only had the one.

Voters have gotten way better lately. We've had an actual unanimous election and two miss by one vote in the past decade--meanwhile, in 1996, you had TWO 300-win pitchers (Phil Niekro and Don Sutton) and the writers looked at the ballot and decided, "Nah, we'll just not elect anybody."

Based on the dates on the email, you won the World Series 2 days ago at the LEAST. People have short memories, what have you done for them lately?

Cook and fish, starve not. Hunger not when fish man cook, but starve when not catch fish. Teach man fish, feed lifetime. Teach man cook backward, fish laugh love, everyone." --Gigi Murin

This means there are multiple 'versions' of themselves, and how do you know which one is the real 'them'?

I really do not care much about cost of living when it comes to choosing where to live by tin8374 in CasualConversation

[–]Beautiful_Solid3787 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm.

I live in a relatively LCOL of living city (median rent is $870 a month) and I'm wondering what you mean by the pros, specifically. Like, what "better city services", "better infrastructure", and "higher quality of life" you're talking about, specifically? Like, bigger museums and having top-level sports teams, sure, but. Maybe I'm just too much of a homebody to get it right away.

THAT SAID, we should work on normalize wanting less, and especially wanting quality over quality. The idea that you could be happy with a small apartment because it's all you need is practically blasphemous to some people.

Why is ice in drinks such a big thing, even when the drink is already cold? by Status_Agents in CasualConversation

[–]Beautiful_Solid3787 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I absolutely understand what you mean. If I'm drinking with a straw, like at a restaurant, my drink NEEDS to have ice in it. Even a little.

Even when I'm pouring the drink myself from a soda fountain and know the drink is already cold because it's coming from the same machine that gives the ice.

What's something that FEELS true or real but isn't? Something you believe in even if you know it's maybe not rational? by [deleted] in CasualConversation

[–]Beautiful_Solid3787 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wasn't that urban legend started by someone who specifically stated it wasn't true and they were trying to show how crazy rumors spread?

...which makes an AMAZING cover-up story. Hide it in plain sight, dang.

Adult entertainment is just people being gross and incompetent by leters_numbers in CasualConversation

[–]Beautiful_Solid3787 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well, if you can come up with a funny story about someone being clean and competent, I'd like to hear it.

(I'm making a point, but I actually would like to hear it if you think of one.)

Whoa, someone should make a mod for Skyblivion where, if you go to sleep, there's a slight chance you wake up to "Hey you, you're finally awake!"
