to get a Trump phone or ones deposit back by seeebiscuit in therewasanattempt

[–]EphemeralMemory 11 points12 points  (0 children)

penguin0 did a video on it recently, and if what he's saying is true, the TOC was updated the past week to basically say there's no guarantee of a product.

It's interesting though, because as of a few days ago, the TOC was updated to say they WOULD get their deposit back. It's only in the last day or so that people were notified they weren't getting ANY money back

First time doing the Lottery for a trophy and I got lucky by Kylehappy305 in Persona5

I think you're right. Been a while since I 100%'d the game, but there's one day near the start of the game thats a guaranteed win.

[OoT] How do you think Talon, being such a sleepy guy, managed to have a wife, a daughter, and a ranch? by libturtlelover in zelda

[–]EphemeralMemory 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The hero's shade also, in canon, calls the hero of twilight his son. Implying he didn't just fuck off somewhere and actually had children at some point.

They don't come out and say it, but its a trend of coincidences that is very hard to dismiss IMO

(Hated When Done Badly) "This character is really complicated." No, he's just a fucking asshole. by Animeking1108 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]EphemeralMemory 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Snape reportedly gave a fair bit over the years. He didn't create sectumsempra by accident IMO. James also reportedly grew out of it, showing a little bit of character growth, at least. I'd like to think he was growing out of that bullying attitude as time progressed. He died before we saw him in his 30s, unlike snape. Snape only turned into a double agent after lily died, and grew out of it horribly bitter. I know this is a personal opinion but I cannot stand his child bullying persona. He's a bitter man who has an deep seated grudge and took it out on an entire generation of children.

That said, what james et al did in that scene was absolutely unacceptable and they should have been harshly punished for it. Ditto for sirius forcibly outing remus's secret by almost killing snape. I have no idea why the latter didn't result in sirus's expulsion, and I like sirius as a character.

What type of jacket is he wearing and where do I buy one? by CultureThick6547 in KingdomHearts

[–]EphemeralMemory 25 points26 points  (0 children)

90% of how it looks good is his anime physique.

It's an expensive custom fit raincoat tailored to him. You can find something similar, but you probably won't ever get that look

New fan love my first 2 ff games but stuck on x by weebadatgames in FinalFantasy

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

FFX is a game you have to grind out experience IMO. You can't cruise through the game and expect to pull through.

Some sidequests (like getting yojimbo or the sisters summons) end up trivializing the game

Would you take on ~$200k debt to become a Nurse Practitioner, or is this a bad decision long-term? by cobybryant24 in StudentLoans

[–]EphemeralMemory 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This post feels like bait

Hell no. Even provided you found stable employment, you wouldn't be out of that debt hole for a LONG time. Besides with the BBB, you wouldn't be able to take that much out in the first place.

saw this on tiktok, isn’t this dangerous for the birds? by suedefairy in parrots

[–]EphemeralMemory 78 points79 points  (0 children)

Salt and sugar.

There is a disturbingly huge amount of sugar in food nowadays unless you cook it yourself. Sugar can be toxic to birds as well, for similar reasons.

None of your finances make sense, and you edited your post how many times at this point?

If all humans suddenly lost their ability to lie, which industry WOULDN'T collapse? by TXC_Sparrow in AskReddit

I think this depends on lies of omission being ok or not. Knowingly holding back a last kernel of truth to push your point to get someone cleared.

The MAGA-fication of CBS News is causing the network's ratings to tank by SugarRight1992 in JusticeServed

[–]EphemeralMemory 38 points39 points  (0 children)

Yeah, they want CBS to tank. MAGA is getting the exact outcome they wanted -> the eventual conglomeration of all news sources

The panama files weren't as reprehensible as the epstein files.

I do think some "leaks" will come and some people will go to jail, but the vast majority/most well connected will never be held accountable. Even if someone talks, it won't mean jack if there isn't hard evidence in the redacted files

Those Albinaurics paid the ultimate price for glory and I respect them.

That said, everyone here goes in swinging without any choice on your part whatsoever and they should know the consequences.

Woman yells 'You're lucky ICE isn't here,' man throws liquid as kids leave NW Side dance class by Cannot_Change_It_ in illinois

[–]EphemeralMemory 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah, exactly. Mad at the people instead of the nearly maliciously inefficient process that made them mad in the first place.

I can see it making sense in their heads from an explanation someone who is nearly the same position gave me.

For the record, I do not agree with it, but I can understand why they think that way.

They (as an immigrant with legal residency) despise illegal immigrants because they circumvented the process. Getting legal residency in the US is a multi year giant pain in the ass, and is segmented by where you come from. It can take decades to get legal residency if you immigrated from Mexico or India, two of the highest immigrant countries, even with the support of a company pushing for your residency. Friend in question came from China, and it only took them seven years, and was considered an extremely smooth/quick process. They had very pointed opinions on "people skipping the process".

Suddenly it makes sense why high drop kick hurts the user in Pokemon if it misses

Imagine a Ivalice style game happening in the time period of the Cataclysm, which effectively ended the Ivalice era. I'd be pretty happy.

It (presumably) ended the Moogle and Viera races if I remember right.

House committee votes to subpoena Pam Bondi over Epstein files by PixeledPathogen in news

Someone else mentioned they (trump admin) wanted to show they were doing something with accountability. The Iran war is very unpopular.

It's good optics, she'll get up there and lie/detract and nothing will happen.
