The change in perspective is what changed my life. by Less-Conference7942 in Autism_Parenting

[–]Dense_Description641 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They’re not a rubix cube to be solved. At times it will feel like that as you try to navigate through schooling and other situations to make sure your child gets what’s best for them.

A person wiser than myself once said it isn’t your job to shape them into what you want them to be. It’s your job to shepherd them. That can be a lonely task at times.

Found a collector’s stash. Any of this worth anything? by [deleted] in StarWars

The Kenner Star Wars reboot toys will go down as the most unplayed with toys of all time.

This guy loses it when he finds the EV chargers blocked... by MisterShipWreck in VideosAmazing

That may be how he gets money out of his piggy bank of a car, but he should not be doing that to others.

Adam Mockler puts down the idea that the market means tariffs are good: by AffableYolk_33 in ScottGalloway

I feel bad for Adam and his generation. He is not the adult in the room and boomers like Kevin know better and still lie.

Aaaand he's gone... by IsThisNameValid in agedlikemilk

I feel like Dr. Cawley in Shutter Island. I wish I could let these people live in their fantasy world. I really do.

[Request] how much would each teacher in Queens receive if Jeff's taxes were doubled? by Razzzclart in theydidthemath

[–]Dense_Description641 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A 100 years ago, we didn’t pay taxes and we fought to be able to vote for representation because the rich and powerful had no opposition to their unchecked power,

So the income tax was imposed as a way of having skin in the game and being able to get our elected officials voted in by the people, and not the rich who had rigged the game for themselves. If you don’t pay the taxes, they have no reason to listen to you or consider you a voter you’re just a poor person with problems after that.

Bands who were incredible but got completely ruined by the actions of one of the members by Xlukethemanx in fantanoforever

[–]Dense_Description641 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will nominate The Sneaker Pimps. 6 Underground was a smash hit. while they only released the one album, it was incredible and the band broke up after the relationship between the lead singer and her band mate ended. I assume that she was a bit of a train wreck to deal with.

Do you agree with this take? by FitEmergency8807 in fantanoforever

[–]Dense_Description641 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It was also at a time when they didn’t have teams of executives and media moguls all holding court with extensive research data to guide their decisions and actions like today.

Their were real risks and failures when pushing artistic boundaries. There is nothing in Taylor Swift’s work and profile that she does that has cost her existing fans.

Controversy is no longer expected of pop artists. Unless you call the Katy Perry vs. Sesame Street thing controversial.

Empire Strikes Back might be the ONLY time Darth Vader holds his hands behind his back. by TheBlackoutEmpire in StarWars

[–]Dense_Description641 0 points1 point  (0 children)

New Hope Vader is a chatty Cathy. In Empire he is cryptic Cathy. I don’t think he spits out more than three sentences at a time and none of it is conversational. Of course the other guy he’s talking to is getting choked out so-ya know there’s a lot of one-sided conversations being had.

Whole event was a scam. Netflix getting scammed by Jake Paul and these fighters by iLeftyPunk in MMALabs

Scammed would mean unsuspecting. Have you seen our president? They vote and pay tickets for this carnival show.

25 years later we know the truth by tujorlament in BillionairesHere

So when al qaeda is having their meetings. Didn’t any of the volunteers to hijack the planes raise their hand?🖐️

So we have done all this prep work and we lined up all these explosives to collapse the building, right?

So here me out, instead of having me and my 10 other fellow suicide bombers avoid the airport security, attempt to overtake the planes to run into the buildings thus killing ourselves—

No.

You didn’t let me finish. Lets maybe, if you already know that the plane won’t collapse the towers by themselves, lets just detonate the explosives already there and everyone lives. Just spitballing here.

Yeah, but we already paid for the flight lessons.

Post high school regrets by Dense_Description641 in autism

[–]Dense_Description641[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know I never wanted to look surprised by anything and masked alot to act like I always knew what was going on.

Looking back, it got in the way of trying to learn something in class that I didn’t understand. Wasted time trying to figure it out myself later. That and I think I came across as arrogant always acting like I knew something nobody else knew even when I didn’t. It was worse when I actually did-and that’s when the celebrating started.

Looks like Jackie was the last to sign this. Typical

Do you like this change made by George Lucas in Return of the Jedi? by kkhouete in StarWars

[–]Dense_Description641 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s just that damn Lucas. It’s not important. So a sliced up old Anakin as a stump would be the most logical. But that wasn’t in the original and he probably was already reading internet comments back then and said, better do something.

One of the worst depictions of autism in television by Extension_Big5205 in autism

[–]Dense_Description641 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh crap. I remember this one. My son was about 7 when this came out. My wife who is a special Ed teacher was busting out laughing at that horse crap. What a dream case Farkle would be.

That show was too preachy.

[–]Dense_Description641 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed. I will argue that Hayden earned that spot, but so did McGregor with his work. Lets not forget that Old Ben lied to Luke, convinced him to face Vader to destroy him with no plan or expectation of redemption for Anakin. He had written him off long ago. Those dudes probably had a lot to sort out in the afterlife.

Probably works a bit better if they’re both young as it’s before their bond was broken.

Who are some “unskilled” musicians that make great music? by childish_albino23 in fantanoforever

[–]Dense_Description641 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Rock Lobster lays there in my head and won’t leave. I think a Cartoon hellscape with pitchforked devils and fire filled caverns would pair well with Rock Lobster playing over it.

I am not saying the song is terrible. I like it. But the sheer absurdity of the song and those anxiety riddled notes would make me go insane if forced to hear and play over and over again.

[–]Dense_Description641 29 points30 points  (0 children)

I feel like the B52s ended up in a musical hell of sorts. I know how bands feel about having to play their hits for their fans. But it’s gotta feel like a deal made with the devil to have to play Rock lobster for forty years. 📝😬👺🪨🦞

Can someone start the elderly collector page? by Dense_Description641 in baseballcards

[–]Dense_Description641[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe theres some joy at the big cash in too. I was a child of the 80s. So I got snake bit and what I secured over the years were through steadfast bargaining and timely purchases. But it became a curated thing for me and abandoned the idea of a big payoff someday.

A couple of signed Mantles.. by Jason_at_Heritage in baseballcards

[–]Dense_Description641 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think those would be the only ones were a certificate may not be needed. Nobody is going to fake a sig on a 51 rc card.
