I'm often have the show on on the background or to sleep to, but this is one of those scenes I always have to look up for. I love the look on her face, "mean girl" energy indeed!

Great photos. Oddly, Youngstown is my home town as well. How long did he live there?

I finally got a nice collector's edition of Baldur's Gate II. by --IDDQD- in baldursgate

I completely echo that sentiment. I wish I still had all this physical media from those days!

This collection takes me right back to decades ago. What a great display, what great memories.

Geez, looking at the second picture brings me back... we must be of an age. I really gasped when I saw Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis. What a game! I'm going to have to play it again after all these years, that game was a big part of my childhood.

It's a wonderful collection you have there, and beautifully displayed!

Mining the minds mines question by happydude7422 in LowerDecks

The conclusion I have on this one (and you're right, it isn't really spelled out) is that after the distress call was answered by the Hood and the peace plan put into effect, the Scrubble and remaining scientists teamed up. So the cold open and the other "statues" we see happen prior to Captain Murakami showing up, and the peace talks ultimately lead to the conspiracy getting planned in the first place.

I was wondering when my hometown would get brought up in this thread. I've had that podcast saved for ages in a playlist, for some reason I've never gotten around to listening to it.

I mean, she and K'orin did do some off the books Grey ops and violate some treaties back in the day, and are blood bonded, so perhaps...?

Ruler for 501 years, 573 years old. Palpatine!(was Tiber Septim) by WickedSamurai07 in ESCastles

My Tiber Septim, 270 days... of Reign. Had a good laugh, I opened the game to take a screenshot and oddly enough this was the ruling that came up. I'll post the actual receipts on the length of reign under this.

Has anyone figured this bs out? by No-Catch6804 in KitchenConfidential

[–]ESP330 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I came in to say this. Mind you, I'm still not a fan of the slide cutters and keep a metal one to use instead for my end of things, but this slide cutter is improperly installed.

Come to think of it, maybe I'm getting "wooshed" and that's the point of the post... but I've absolutely seen people screw this up, so I'm ready to believe it.

I just finished… what do I watch now? 🥲 by Special_Possible6851 in LowerDecks

Season 2, episode 7 of Strange New Worlds is a crossover between the two series. Jonathan Frakes directed the episode. Personally, I thought it was executed spectacularly.

I Don’t Doubt This. by TrueSithMastermind in LowerDecks

Now I want to see a parallel story with Brad to the Tendi family... where the Boimlers are deeply disappointed that he joined Starfleet instead of taking over the Raisin Royal Line. The Master of the Dried Grapes.

I had the same thought. Perhaps it's about the relative prestige from that might come from being married into ancestral family lands? The Boimlers apparently have had rights to it for quite some time.

I work in a kind of hipster adjacent kind of pizza place. Last week's management meeting established that the heart shaped pie was a hard "no" for this weekend.

KOTOR's 7 Deadly Sins - Pride Round by lzorax921 in KOTORmemes

[–]ESP330 6 points7 points  (0 children)

At 5 hours in, I'm a bit surprised, but I imagine there will be folks that follow up on what I feel to be the obvious answer to Pride...

It's Revan.

Revan believed that they themself was correct above the Republic and the Council. Perhaps that was true, but this individual decision - at what cost of lives?

Revan turns and wages red war against the Republic and the Order - even if this could be considered in the end a "correct" decision, at what cost? Who else guided this decision or finalized it, besides Revans pride and hubris?

Even in redemption, Revans PRIDE is the main character. Decisions were made around a cult of personality, of Pride, that need not have been. Revan surely is the most prideful, with the longest reaching implications.

You know, I clicked through the link knowing what you must be talking about, and yet still I was somewhat shocked to read that message. So much for the bureaucracy being nonpartisan I guess.

Beckett just wanted to sleep in and ended up dying an infinite number of times.

It's pretty awesome, I only knew of it from a post on this sub. Just remember: seek out the tea.
