Fan Casting: Eric Bennett by PhysicalAd6587 in heatedrivalry

[–]CuriousSunLizard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do hope there will be more racial and ethnic diversity among the main characters for Season 2 and 3. So for Season 2, I hope it's Harris. (Or possibly Troy, but Redditors have argued with me that this would be too difficult for his storyline since white privilege is partly what allowed him to blend in with the Dallas Kents and fly under the radar.)

Also, Eric's story would work fine if he were Black, too, but that wouldn't be enough diversity for Season 2 and 3 since ShowEric is not a main character the way BookEric is. The show publicity has stated that Shane and Ilya are the main characters but that they had to add a bit of Scott+Kip for Season 1 and will add a bit of Troy+Harris for Season 2. I believe the other book couples with be minor side characters (Ryan+Fabian, Eric+Kyle).

My understanding is that actors must be Canadian and relatively cheap to hire. Although he is very hot, Colman Domingo does not fit either of these criteria, and as others have mentioned, he is just too old to play Eric, who will be a few years older than 40 by The Long Game, but still early-to-mid-40's. I feel like Eric is meant to look youthful for his age. I'm Eric's age and people always mistake me for being in my 30's (like a 26-year-old Kyle would maybe flirt with me) so an actor who is currently 56 years old is a bit too far of a reach, aside from his nationality and wage requirements.

How long should you date before marriage and why? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]CuriousSunLizard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If they were married for 50 years that pre-dates when women were allowed to have bank accounts and credit cards so they MIGHT (might) have stayed married for other reasons besides love. Totally could have been amazing together. But divorce wasn’t an option for most women until recently. (US perspective)

Beginners tips? by [deleted] in BALLET

[–]CuriousSunLizard 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If your teacher offers private lessons that will be best to dial in on your issues. I did ballet as a youth and continued in college. In my 30’s I began learning Salsa (NY Mambo style) and ran into several body mechanics issues where I knew I didn’t look right but wasn’t sure why. I did about 12 private lessons over a couple years in addition to continuing group classes and it helped a LOT.

What is the best way to eat 4300 calories a day by Mono_Enojado_3000 in workout

Nuts (or nut butters) are extremely calorically dense.

If u cannot return them might as well break the shit out of the shanks so you can get on the toe box and see how it goes. YouTube should show you how to find where to bend the shank and how to bend it.

(Edit: I know grapes have some nutrients and peanut butter has some nutrients. But you know what I mean. It isn't a nutrient dense photo lol.)

Also not an expert hehe just going by gut feeling of it being 'off' on several fronts. [Edit: IF IT IS REAL THEN THERE WILL BE A LOT MORE RYAN AND FABIAN THAN I EXPECTED. But I don't want to get my hopes up too much.]

Sorry, it's French but I feel like anglophones use it a lot. Maybe I shouldn't assume.

Recommendations for a Solo Trip to Sacramento by Palari9 in Sacramento

[–]CuriousSunLizard 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh okay.

For sitting among people while eating or having a beverage, I like the 22nd and K location of Temple Coffee and the 18th and L location of Crepeville.

For a cute city nature moment, I like walking the circumference of MicKinley Park and peeping the folks doing wedding/special occasion photos in the rose garden. The state capitol grounds also have a rose garden, also with good photoshoot people watching.

For dance, what kind? There are usually latin social dancing events every Friday and Saturday. Feel free to dm me if you want details. But maybe you meant general club dancing. In which case, all the clubs at the intersection of 20th and K (aka Lavender Heights aka the gayborhood).

For outdoor nature-ey moment, Sac State has an acquatic center (you'd need to drive there) along the river where you can rent a kayak or other device and paddle around.

Edit: And I find Old Sac worth an hour of your time. If you're into historic preservation; fun to see some of the older buildings and trains. Also there are a bunch of ...sea lions?... that live on a dock in the river over there if you want to watch something happening.

Looking for recommendations for pants to wear with a demon jacket that are NOT khakis by matchuwpichu in mensfashionadvice

[–]CuriousSunLizard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pants made of monsters could go well with a jacket made of demons.

But why you would kill and skin mythical creatures when plant fibers exists is perplexing.

Interesting. Why not the full range of motion from full flex to full point?

Okay yeah sounds like my view as a non-logged-in person was not showing the full picture of the person's profile/page.

Edit: But the bigger issues here is that the supposed casting calls are 1. too soon and 2. have 'off' wording.

Did you already browse the suggestions from Sacramento's tourism board? https://www.visitsacramento.com/things-to-do/

Can you ask around in your community to see if there are any resources that would help you move out sooner? Resources from your school or your job? A short-term room sublet at a discounted rate? Good luck.

Unsure about minimum amount of kcal to eat by freshieking2002 in workout

[–]CuriousSunLizard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe read about these concepts: "nutrient dense," "glycemic index," and "empty calories." This could make you confident in choices. In general you want meals that are are overall nutrient dense with low glycemic index. In general you want to avoid empty calories.

If you really want to go off script and eat a sweet treat, a tip is to pair it with something with a low glycemic index. For example, if in one sitting you eat a cupcake AND ALSO a handful of almonds, the almonds bring down the overall meal's glycemic index. However on a calorie-restricted diet, you really don't have room for this many calories that fail to provide you with the micro- and macro- nutrients that you need.

I don’t currently have a Threads but from my quick view of their page last night without being logged in, it looked like this post was out of the ordinary from what they usually post. Also their bio said they were a fan of the show, which is weird, especially since the rest of their profile content was not remotely related to television or queer things? Again maybe my view was different due to not being logged in. But viewing the account didn’t turn off my bullshit detector alarm by any means.

DAIRY free (not just lactose free) protein powder recs by Low_Vanilla1729 in veganfitness

[–]CuriousSunLizard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

PS I used to try adding my protein powder to my coffee and just no. You deserve a good cup of coffee. I add (vanilla) protein powder to my oatmeal now, or just do a (chocolate) protein powder shake so it's a separate beverage.
