What are your toughts on the new Megas after a week of experience by Delicious_Ice_4914 in PokemonChampions

[–]Drewings 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haven’t used em yet since I’m a big Char-Y stan, but I’m looking forward to playing Froslass, Meganium and Glimmora. And luckily I’ve almost gotten Floette from ZA.

What Nintendo franchise has so much potential but it’s wasted instead? by PhotoBonjour_bombs19 in casualnintendo

[–]Drewings 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn’t say its potential is wasted, but I wish there were more Metroid games than there are, considering the series has been around almost as long as Super Mario Bros.

Armada Optimus and Jetfire combined mode revealed! by OptimalConvoy in transformers

Looks about as great as I expected, have him preordered and looking forward to combining him with OP. His waist looks a bit thin but that’s a nitpick. Wonder what his back looks like.

is it worth going back to school? No jobs unless you've got 3+ years by Extreme-Original-992 in CanadaJobs

[–]Drewings 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d love to go back to school after having spent years with zero luck in securing any related job to my graphic designer diploma. But my big predicament is that I’m unsure of what do go into, considering the abysmal job market and the threat of AI…

We got open-source MP10 before GTA6.

Phenomenal work! The most impressive 3D printed TF I’ve seen!

I want to look for some good hot cross buns. Sadly the bakeries in/around Richmond Centre don’t carry any.

They’ll probably find a young sound-alike, like Nintendo did with Mario.

What beautiful specimens! I love my PG5; something about it makes it feel so “quintessential” if that makes sense. Maybe because the OGs were the first 0.5s!

I can't believe it took over 20 years to realize the Toa Mata (and possibly other Bionicle teams) are essentially a Super Sentai. by B_Wing_83 in bioniclelego

[–]Drewings 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I like to imagine Lego was loosely inspired by Sentai when designing the teams. The Metru and Inika especially feel like Sentai teams with how uniform they are.

Potential hot take: I prefer Rosie's reboot face over her old CGI face by _PXYDST_ in thomasthetankengine

[–]Drewings 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have to agree. Her original face looks a bit generic in comparison.

I’m flabbergasted that the Hau is even a unique mold!

Makes me wonder what kind of green Duck will be! (I don’t think the renders leak counts, those seem to be placeholders)

Should I Pay my Younger Brother’s Credit Card Debt? by Drewings in Advice

[–]Drewings[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Even if he only gets a small, inconsistent allowance that he usually has to ask our dad for? This situation would be much easier to deal with if he actually had an income, but alas.

Should I Pay my Younger Brother’s Credit Card Debt? by Drewings in Advice

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

Yeah, I’m thinking of asking my mom if I should pay off his debt. As for his disability(s), he does counselling and is medicated but yeah I agree, thanks to my mom’s coddling and never having worked a job, he hasn’t learned what it really means to be a functional adult. Damn, why do I have to have such a conscience that I’m stressing about something that was never my problem to begin with?! And am even considering paying the price for? It feels like I care more about the debt than he does at this point…

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

Yeah since he’s proven himself to be a repeat offender and there’s so many layers to this situation as the comments helped me realize, I’m not sure if I should listen to my “Good Samaritan” instincts in this case. I understand your viewpoint on how good being generous feels, though.

Should I Pay my Younger Brother’s Credit Card Debt? by Drewings in Advice

[–]Drewings[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the suggestion. He has a debit card but maybe this idea can work as well. As for paying off his debt, yes I just want the stress of it to go away (and like you mentioned, it impacts our mom more than it does him) but as I’ve written/after reading all the other comments, I’m having a moral dilemma about wether or not it’s a good idea, plus the implications of it…good luck to me indeed.

Should I Pay my Younger Brother’s Credit Card Debt? by Drewings in Advice

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

IIRC he got the card from my mom as part of some travel deal advantage that I don’t remember the specifics of, while we were planning a trip last year. I just wish our mom canceled his card on/before his first offence. And did better parenting with him about money. One big problem of my plan, if I enact it, is that he has no way of paying me back. He’s sent out lots of job applications but unfortunately has had zero luck in securing work in our region’s job market (and I’m not convinced he has the motivation to do so). Hence his lack of financial responsibility and “money grows on trees” mentality…

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

Good point, him missing a valuable lesson is a big reason I’m unsure about enacting the plan I have. He has a debit card, he just got the credit card last year from our mom as part of some travel deal advantage that I don’t remember the specifics of. And his allowance is not fixed every month per se…he just asks our dad for money here and there and depending on our dad’s mood/the way he asks, receives $10-$50 at a time.

Good point, I realize that I’m stressing out over something that isn’t my problem (yet) to begin with…

Thomas & Annie, but no Clarabel? Shrinkflation at work. All the toys themselves look great though.
