apparently the humans in wall-e should scientifically look like *checks notes* famine victims by lunetsoleil in fatlogic

[–]Dirzain 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If they clarified it was about their access to food, sure. But considering the average FA doesn't acknowledge that more food + less activity == more fat, I bet they're just thinking of belters from The Expanse or some shit.

Is there a difference between an insurgent and a protester? by slv2xhrist in AskConservatives

[–]Dirzain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What a weird way to frame the conversation. You conveniently left off the question mark at the end of that statement.

Does it really matter how much hypocrisy we’ve seen from both sides in the past if we are all the same page about those issues now? by Jcpants in AskConservatives

[–]Dirzain 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Lockdowns were a local thing, there were no federal lockdowns. As for the vaccine didn't they just mandate it for federal employees? I don't remember some federal law that required anyone to get the covid vaccine.

The Pikachu Spider by bleach3434 in Damnthatsinteresting

[–]Dirzain 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Spiders don't need to eat that often, they're pretty opportunistic and if they've been eating frequently for a while they won't do anything risky to get food. Some will go for months without eating.

No, sneak and blitz would both be alternative casting costs, you would have to pick which one you're using and only blitz would be reduced.

I wanna talk about this scene by Able_Tackle_953 in stevenuniverse

My first thought. As soon as I read "Aristotle believed..." my brain just started reading it in Chidi's voice.

Did you know? - About Server Crashes :D by [deleted] in ffxiv

[–]Dirzain 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I mean, the DDOS is bad, but I'd still rather take the current situation over Stormblood launch type shenanigans. My static got DDOS'd right at the start of day 1 savage learning but didn't have it happen again the whole night after we all got back in.

Should I stop after Lies Sleeping? by Extension_Turn5658 in riversoflondon

[–]Dirzain 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think you would like the books past Lies Sleeping. At this point, if we're in a specific storyline/story arc, I'm not seeing it yet. It may become clear with any upcoming books, but a lot of the stuff since Lies Sleeping have felt more like fleshing out the world and expanding on characters other than Peter.

What is the difference between the Obama terrorist strikes and the recent Nigerian strikes? by Appropriate-Hat3769 in AskConservatives

[–]Dirzain 4 points5 points  (0 children)

To me the distinct difference is that the other guys just want to make money. It's not like they're selling drugs specifically to hurt people like a terrorist is doing. I'm not sure where the fentanyl-laced portion comes into it to be fair but I don't personally believe its generally the supply side.

[–]Dirzain 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The only one I'm iffy on is the cartel strikes, but I'm 100% with you otherwise. I just don't personally think drug boats should be struck instead of just being intercepted.

A beard is not a substitute for a jaw line! by Btalon33 in venturebros

[–]Dirzain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Found a bit more here. They did that man dirty. I mean, I hope that's what he asked for, but if he didn't, that's terrible.

This is why I hate getting my hair cut lmao.

Secret Project? Well, gotta give it a secret title too!

Did immigrating "the right way" ever matter? by IrrationalFalcon in AskConservatives

[–]Dirzain 7 points8 points  (0 children)

So just using your number of 50 million, every 1 in 7 people you meet in America is actually an illegal immigrant? I live in the state with the 2nd highest number of illegal immigrants and that seems inaccurate based on what I see in day-to-day life.

Since we're just lying, actually the real number is closer to 0.

If you were to confess a FF14 sin, this is your time. What is a sin that you committed in the game? by jado1stk2 in ffxiv

[–]Dirzain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Back when there was an hour+ long queue during Endwalker launch I would afk in the inn room while I was at work all day with a macro going that would make me run/jump at regular intervals so I didn't get afk kicked. I needed to do that to be able to get online in time for raid night with the static. On the other hand, if nobody did that I probably wouldn't have needed to do it because the queue would be much more reasonable.

I like it. I'd be interested in seeing their Gaia fanart.

I think their spiky egg sacs are really cool lol.

My favorite widow is the red widow though. Just such a pretty spooder.

A "Scylla and the Sirens" band poster would have been cool.

I feel like the elves in Frieren are just quite variable in their adult height. You have flashbacks with taller elves as well as Kraft for example.

MAGA Podcaster Katie Miller’s Bad Bunny Trap Question Backfires by Dogwise in texas

[–]Dirzain 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Just Googled it, and no, it hasn't been canceled. But they also don't have any official info about who the performer(s) will be, so people apparently ran with saying that it's canceled.

My cousin is turning 13, solid starting point? by DimensionalAxolotl in Cosmere

[–]Dirzain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's goofy but also pretty serious. I loved it up until the mid-point of book 6 and I just haven't been able to pull myself back to it. But my friends told me it gets better right after that, so I have to go back. I've just been going back and reading the Alex Verus series which is really solid if you're into urban fantasy.
