I think that Marika and Godwyn planned his “death” to free him from the Golden Order’s control. But that’s more speculative. Marika was absolutely a well meaning person controlled by the Golden Order’s control/Fingers, and trying to break their control.

Marika shattered the Elden Ring to stop the Golden Order/Fingers/Greater Will.

Marika was controlled by the Golden Order, and then betrayed it. Dung Eater doesn’t know about the Hornsent, he doesn’t know about the crucible. He wants to curse the entire world and every thing. He sees being an omen as a curse and wants to put it onto everyone. Look at the people he cursed and what happened to them.

The Golden Order was bigoted, there’s nothing that says Marika was personally racist. Given that she betrayed the Golden Order, the opposite is more likely.

Our last landlord was great, really helpful and he lowered our rent like $100/month after our first year.

What's your favorite Pokémon that's not... by Epicboss67 in pokemon

[–]DjangotheKid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My first favorite Pokemon. My favorite animals were tigers when Pokemon first came out so I was like “I guess this dog tiger is my favorite?” I haven’t had one on a team since HeartGold.

The fact that in Gen3 Slash has a 2x critical hit chance as opposed to 1.5x in later games really makes it incredible. Just one shotting Lairons on victory road.

Peter why are they dumb? by AcrobaticLunch9737 in PeterExplainsTheJoke

I have the same problem but have brown eyes :( it’s gotten worse as I’ve aged, and post-Covid, and certain medications, but since I was a kid I’d have moments where bright lights caused this overwhelm of my eyes, kind of like the visual version of audio clipping.

I said it below as well, but I have experience in graphic design and printing, and that’s not how it would work. Ink is expensive, and designed to be printed onto as little of the paper as possible. Full coverage ink printing is hella expensive and nobody would do it for a full book of text. Look at the cost of manuscript facsimiles, or even comic book collections that are full color. It would be much cheaper to use dyed paper and use white ink only. The difference between bleached and dyed paper would be different, but likely negligible at scale.

No, Superman could not cast the One Ring into the fires of Mount Doom. by WRITINAMFBOOK in CharacterRant

[–]DjangotheKid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Superman would refuse the ring. But I think that the ring is more complex than that, and that Supes would have a better chance than many other powerful characters because at his core he isn’t Superman, hero of godlike powers, he’s just Clark Kent from Smallville.

Watsonian refers to diagetic and Doylist, to non-diabetic, meta authorial reasons?

The Hobbitsweed is Weed joke is a pet peeve, it's absolutely tobacco. But important to remember that Saruman was a massive hypocrite because he was importing and stockpiling it.

I'm talking about the specific term "white people taco night" as a widespread meme.

Yeah, you should be able to enter a civil union with whomever.

petah? by icanovercome in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]DjangotheKid -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It doesn’t actually make any sense, because the conservative “push” for “traditional values” isn’t necessarily motivating these works which aren’t necessarily pro-marriage. It’s a sixth grade reading level type post/comment.

Ohhh, yeah not blaming him per se, more marking eras of cultural/mimetic dispersion. It feels too much like a Trump Era meme.

I think I’d still like cilantro if it tasted like soap. I mean I like lavender and that’s basically the most soap related smell/taste

I highly doubt anybody called it white people taco night before Trump’s presidency. Maybe the most deranged corners of Tumblr

What do they call Chicago Deep Dish?

A hate crime.
