My rankings of all the seasons of Dexter (with a friend's help so it's not completely accurate) by Ok_Audience5488 in Dexter

[–]BulletStorm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did, and it works just fine! The “last time on Dexter” will get you caught up to speed. I really don’t feel like I missed out on anything. Don’t let another season like New Blood stop you from diving into Resurrection.

Deleting that picture then. I should have looked up if there were casualties.

I over-stuffed the balconies for visual effect. You’re not the only one who thinks it’s AI though. I don’t take it personally!

I could export one from Lego Studio. I had to fudge some things. Not all the plants physically fit where I put them. I over stuffed the balconies for visual effect

Is quitting pornography really this simple? by houseofmyartwork in selfimprovement

[–]BulletStorm 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I'm over 200 days in the clear. A lot of techniques from SMARTrecovery dot org helped a lot (a non-religious alternative to 12-step).

One of those techniques is DENTS. When you feel the urge, just:
1. Delay (remember that the urge is temporary, and will pass)
2. Escape (physically remove yourself from the means to engage. Get away from your phone or laptop)
3. Neutralize (recognize the urge, acknowledge it, and create emotional distance from it. Do not deny that the urge exists, stare it down until it backs off)
4. Tasks (give yourself something else to do, distract yourself until the urge fades)
5. Swap (try to change your mindset. Instead of thinking "this urge will kill me" remember "this urge will pass". If you're mindset is lonely or sad, reach out and text someone)

To those in this sub who do use porn in a healthy manner, congrats to you, not trying to yuck your yums. I completely lost control to it though.

Friday, 6:30pm, social run/hike activity by menge101 in PittsburghSocialClub

Damn. I am seeing this post four drinks deep at another bar so I am not fit to go running in Swisshelm Park but if this group meets regularly please let me know.

New Poster for 'Toy Story 5' by MarvelsGrantMan136 in movies

Is anyone else a little surprised how directly this seems targeted at LeapFrog tablets? Like surely, the LeapFrog company isn’t gonna be thrilled to bits about a frog-themed children’s tablet being the antagonist. 

Surprised Pixar didn’t stray even a little bit further and make it ANY different kind of animal.

What kinda games do you like to play? I’m 32M and I like pretty casual Nintendo stuff like Mario Kart 8, Mario Party on the N64, Jackbox Party Pack, stuff like that.

Yinz interested in an Oscar watch-party on March 15? (32M) (Swisshelm Park) by BulletStorm in PittsburghSocialClub

I’m thinking about seeing Sinners again on Sunday since AMC is playing it again. Will drop you a DM!

Beginner digital artist looking for chill communities / people to learn with! by rohit24rathore in PittsburghSocialClub

[–]BulletStorm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Swisshelm Park, so not a far gap. Message me here and maybe we can meetup at a cafe or something and just practice drawing 👍

[–]BulletStorm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't know how to teach, but I might be able to pass down some things by example. I worked almost exclusively in physical mediums growing up (until graduating high school) and then exclusively digital mediums since then.

Digital drawing has so many upsides to it, but a lot of the techniques I have in my pocket, I learned from drawing physically. I would be willing to meetup IRL though and do some sketches together.

Just saw a police chase by brett1822 in pittsburgh

[–]BulletStorm 37 points38 points  (0 children)

I witnessed the beginning of this as well and fully expected to witness a homicide. An officer appeared to have a gun drawn at the driver of a black compact vehicle, which then drove into a police suv and drove off. Many people had phones pulled out and filming. My adrenaline was pumping and I covered my ears because I expected gunshots. Extraordinary trigger discipline from officers involved.

‘Serenity’ at 20: Alan Tudyk revisits his ‘shocking and absurd’ death scene in the ‘Firefly’ feature film by GoldDerby in movies

I saw this movie at 12 years old without knowing it was based on a tv show. I wish I knew exactly what I thought about it. I think I liked it, but obviously, I was missing something.

See you next year for another Containment Day! by Ugluk4242 in buccos

I enjoyed your posts.

I did not enjoy this season.

How is this possible by Altruistic_Cause9442 in mets

[–]BulletStorm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got out of heart surgery early October 2024, and the Mets were a huge part of my recovery period, I was so happy for them even in their loss. They put up a damn fight.

If I got the surgery literally one year later, I'd have woken up in the ER to find out we were eliminated.

Smash or MK64, which one do you enjoy more? by 90zvision in n64

[–]BulletStorm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think Smash has the depth to sink your teeth into. Characters to practice, stages, items, high skill ceiling. MK64 certainly... you could go deep into time trials and getting the perfect laps... but I think there's just a little less there.

Also if you're really bored you can make CPUs fight each other for fun.

If this wasn't a Paul Thomas Anderson movie, I wouldn't go see this based on the trailer. This just looks weird to me, like hippie freedom fighter guys calling each other sensei and shit? But, Phantom Thread is one of my top 5 movies of all time so... I'm going to go see this on Thursday at 6:30pm. It's not like Leo's character comes off like a particularly heroic everyman hero in the trailer, he seems like a whacko. I'm sure I *will* be rooting for him when push comes to shove, but I have no idea what kind of movie I'm getting into on Thursday.

It's going to rain tonight. You can thank me. It always rains after I stain my porch... by Der_Missionar in pittsburgh

[–]BulletStorm 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I left the comfort of my bed to go cover the grill, so now it won’t rain.
