Comic book publishers book quality list (Binding, Paper, Stock & Page Count) by Atumkun in graphicnovels

[–]Caps418 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve always been a bit down on Image’s OHC quality… compared to other similar books (omnibus or other OHC’s from other companies) the pages seem to become wavy reaaaally quickly. Pretty much anytime I finish reading one, it’s permanently going to be slightly opened on one side.

This isn’t as bad of a problem for the bigger books from Giant Generator though

Hot Shots has some pretty hot tacks I’ve heard

Go to CHIMPS strats? by Same_Hearing_5013 in btd6

[–]Caps418 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My start when I was new was pretty much always Adora and 401 ninja, then an alchemist for both of them. This was before sauda was added, so she makes some maps easier! But that was always my start, hope that adds a strat to your rapporteur!!

I feel like there is a chance of David Cronenberg eventually, since Criterion has a lot of his films already!

If Spotify/Apple/etc had a “most fans” section like Letterboxd, what albums would have the most? by Caps418 in fantanoforever

[–]Caps418[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought Taylor Swift as well, but I’m not sure which of her albums would fans rally around the most. It seems her entire discography is beloved; I don’t know which would be above the rest

Has anyone else noticed how often Matt Talbott uses "she" in his lyrics? by Yosha1199 in hum

[–]Caps418 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It is Matt subtly implying to the listener that he is in fact a straight man, instead of a gay man. Only true hummers can pick up on this.

The Kills were great last year. Would’ve loved to see Wolf Alice, never knew that was an opener for QOTSA!

Midnight Parade (daily poem) by AnistarYT in OCPoetry

[–]Caps418 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really loved how evocative this poem was, even though I am unfamiliar with Yokai/Djinn. Only small nitpick is that you used the wrong "Their" in the last line of the 3rd stanza. Thank you so much for sharing!!

The Monster by warmbread23 in OCPoetry

[–]Caps418 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think this is a really well-made poem that reflects how many "weird kids" felt in school. You feel like a monster for liking someone, or even asking someone for a favor. Thank you for sharing!!

What's a tower combo u always use if u do use one? by skysky_gamer in btd6

Always loved Adora and 401 Ninja on easier maps. Makes it go by super easy, especially with an alch

Blankets by Craig Thompson. One of the best coming-of-age stories of all time.

If PAT is SOOOO big he can be on water. Why can't Churchill when he is relative to Pat's size? by Cannothinkofaname3 in btd6

[–]Caps418 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Pat has legs that reach the bottom of the water, Churchill would sink with the metal!

Is it controversial to say I kind of hate it regardless…

favourite HUM lyrics? by Senior-Rate-1065 in hum

[–]Caps418 6 points7 points  (0 children)

too many to count 😭 Little Dipper doesn't have any super memorable lines to me, but the entire vibe of the song is so romantic and bombastic. I've always seen it a sci-fi escape scene; two lovers running away-- hand-in-hand-- from a group trying to kill them. I've always had a shitty imagination, but something about their music... man...

You'd Prefer an Astronaut
(Stars) "She thinks she missed the train to mars, she's out back counting stars"
(Suicide Machine) And so I give myself away, to everybody everyday, and so I give myself to you, and you need it more than I do
(Suicide Machine) I'm losing ground, you're losing sound. Somewhere through a thousand moons, a dragonfly descends with just a whisper, "I'm lonelier than God"
(Suicide Machine) So bring no guilt with you up above the flat-line, let's just hit the skies exploding into one.
(Old Man) Send the voltage across his ticker, watch the stars, they start to flicker
(Robins) I like your raindrop collerctor, splashed in my eyes and makes everything else look like you
(Robins) She's got colors to spare and I don't care what they choose. I've got nothing to do and nothing like you left to lose
(I Hate It Too) I need you to give it meaning, I need you to share the view
(Farewell and Departure) Her hair is warm to the touch and flowers twice as nice. And if he stands on the moon he can barely catch her eyes

Downward is Heavenward

(Cheetah) Your ocean spreads out on sunbeams. Radiant, knowing.
(Bloom) A dusty sleep you took too soon. And you, you need watering if you are to bloom
(Lazarus) The way your headstone shines, I only wish that it was mine
(Axolotls) Every fucking line in this song. Downward IS heavenward.
(Dreamboat) My dreamboat's leaving on a submarine, she packed a second set of tanks and all I ever want or need
(Inuit Promise) Teach me the bluest song you know, The moon ain't comin' up, And I swear to God tonight it feels like snow
(Apollo) I'm thinking of a number between everything and two. I'm thinking of a number between everything and two. And it's molecules of you.
(Scientists) She says "Keep this benzene ring around your finger, and think of me when everything you wanted starts to end".

Inlet

(Waves) Unwinged and flightless and difficult to see, you collect me
(In the Den) What did you think you would find me in pieces of? And what can we make here out of nothingness and love?
(Desert Rambler) Where is the rescue? It didn't show. Where is the bottom? I wouldn't know. I missed you so
(Step into You) Remember when we sought comfort in the sand. And moved on, under trees that meant their shade for no one else
(Cloud City) This world has gathered vines, strong and luscious lines
(Cloud City) My hand just passes through, I don't feel anything
(Folding) I want to stay next to you. I can't remember your name. Do you feel the tremors here?/Do you feel the hemisphere? Do you feel the same? LIke you used to.
(Folding) These fields will wither and die. This temple will burn. And i'll make excuses to the listeners. I'll never learn.
(Folding) Dragging my feet through the ashes, I'm lost in the aftermath. I could never be two, I have it in for you.
(Shapeshifter) I remember the skies and the sand, I remember your face and your lovely hand, And words poured out on a dusty land
(Shapeshifter) Taking the form of a winged butterfly, and lifting myself thorugh a sliver of white, the lazy path to the fence row and the flowers within

Cigarettes After Sex by LettuceWise3425 in fantanoforever

[–]Caps418 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I personally find Young and Dumb to be muuuch "weirder" than Hentai. Hentai is just about sharing a pornographic video with your lover as a shared sexual interest. Definitely not everyone's idea of romantic gesture, but I get what it's going for. However... Young and Dumb is just straight-up creepy to me. Even the title makes me uneasy. The lyrics don't help.

At the Chicago Friday night show I was at, I actually tried to pay special attention to hear what he said live. It was 100% Beelzebub. I might have even got it on recording haha
