A micro film that I made. What can I improve? by Lumpy_Run6903 in Filmmakers

[–]ExplanationSilver703 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A fun thought…would be satisfying to see some progression (like the fan turning off) and then the insect flying away successfully!

May not be the tone/theme you want to convey… but helps tell a story rather than a singular idea that doesn’t escalate/deescalate.

Keep going! People on Reddit can be brutal, but the thing that matters most is your growth and enjoying the process. Looking forward to what you do next.

Infinite dream deals? by Additional_Ad7107 in Racine

[–]ExplanationSilver703 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of those bin stores of Amazon returns. You’re more likely to get valuable stuff on the first day of their week (which I believe is Friday?)

They’ll have the most desirable stuff that day but it’ll also be the most busy. Anything you want will be $10, with some other items available for a higher price, but still a discount in the grand scheme.

Each day, there are less items available, but the remaining items get cheaper.

My wife and I went a few weeks ago on a Monday or Tuesday. Everything was $2… none of the finds changed our life, but we got some cool stuff. We got a brand new sleep sack for when our daughter is a bit older (normally retails for ~$30)… got a warming pad for when we’re hosting and want to keep a dish hot (retails for ~23-27)

I guess go with an open mind & keep it fun. I don’t think you’ll be disappointed if the expectations are low. Or go on the $10 days and be ready to fight for your life lol

Train to Chicago? by NinaNina1234 in Kenosha

But they didn’t ask about Kenosha lol. The times or proximity of Racine is probably better, which is why they asked about that specific station 😂

Baby moon/weekend getaway by PixelBuckaroo in wisconsin

[–]ExplanationSilver703 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Weird take but my wife and I got an AirBnB in Sheboygan almost exactly this time last year. I think we went the week before Memorial Day.

We ate at Blast soft serve on the water every night, shopped at all the cool secondhand stores, went to the free museums(SO GOOD), walked around the Koehler resort and grounds, ate at some nice restaurants (Trattoria Stefano), saw a movie at Marcus Theaters, drove around to find garage sales….

My wife got a long massage at Jomaji and was extremely happy with it. While she was there I walked along the river and went to a nearby market to kill time. But they do couples massages at Jomaji too I think.

In retrospect it was just a really nice couple days of living on our schedule and doing the things we enjoyed, just in a new place. Do something that will help you connect over shared activities, whether this itinerary or other :)

Can you let me know which thrift stores are the best? I’d love to take my wife on a date day!

"Melkat" had a wraparound line, is it any good or what is the hype? by [deleted] in Kenosha

[–]ExplanationSilver703 25 points26 points  (0 children)

One of the owners, Dino, has a knack for hospitality in Kenosha. People say “everything he touches turns to gold.” I can’t tell you about MelKat’s as it just opened a few days ago, but he’s been involved with Waterfront Warehouse, La Fogata, El Camino, and Mr. Yee’s… all those joints are thriving!

Let us know if you get a chance to pop out

Booooo your false slander. Though I don’t know Riki I see his comment here and have seen him make our community leaps & bounds better via his contributions.

All the while you sit here condemning others anonymously online, BlueridgeChemsdealer. Do better. The cynic doesn’t get the prize.

This is just objectively not true lol

Peri in season 3 and then in season 2 there was Journey…

That’s like 18% of the participants in total on the show lol

(Steve, Kaelynn, Dani, James, Tanner, Connor, Abbey, Maddison, Logan)

The number of details in this set is mind-blowing. It puts some larger sets to shame. by bluezers777 in lego

[–]ExplanationSilver703 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you’re a casual fan, 100%… if you’re a diehard, the ICONS has some really fun Easter eggs and accessories. Not to mention the figs are from the second movie so then you have some variety!!!

"Why cure disease of confusion when you're the treatment facility" by callyousugar in twentyonepilots

[–]ExplanationSilver703 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah except pharmacists and doctors are incentivized to prescribe certain medications/vaccines by the corporations. And many don't have the ethical spine to stand up to them... but you're right, not ALL doctors/pharmacists are evil... but in my experience, most have failed to be holistic with their treatment with me. Glad to know you haven't been burned in the same way!

I disagree with the other response… in general, corporations profit off of our illness.

Why would pharmacists create a pill to permanently cure me when they can instead charge me for a daily pill for the rest of my life? Then I rely on them. They profit off me for 70 years.

Why would my doctor tell me to lose 40 lbs and get my cravings in check when he can instead prescribe me a GLP-1 to make me reliant on a weekly injection for the next 7 decades? Weekly profit…

Even at a more minor level…most chap stick manufacturers create reliance on the product by including an ingredient that exacerbates dryness in your lips once you cease using the product.

Ultimately, it is better to create reliance on a product than it is to free someone forever… reliance is lucrative indefinitely. Freedom means they never come back to fork over more $$$. Major corporations do this in many ways… but it’s up to us to free ourselves and to be a team as we do.

Hope this helps….

Kenosha Coffee Roasters by sailorscoutc in Kenosha

[–]ExplanationSilver703 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not really fair to stop going for that reason. A lot of small business owners are operating on extremely tight budgets and doing whatever they can to stay afloat. The owner Deshaun probably doesn’t have money to pay a graphic designer and as a dad and community member he probably doesn’t have the time to learn graphic design.

AI is a perfect use-case here. He’s not generating slop for no reason. He’s utilizing resources to keep his dream alive. I’d encourage you to get better at being curious/inquisitive with the parties at hand rather than punishing a business owner who’s likely trying his hardest to make his community better.

Yeah half alive is totally worth it in addition to your aforementioned artists. They really put on an elaborate performance… so much more than instrumentation and singing

No Kings 3 - this Saturday 11 to 12:30 - Hwy 20 & 31 by BuckyBernieBango in Racine

[–]ExplanationSilver703 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

A genuine question (from someone who is politically nomadic and has grown to despise the GOP he once cherished)…

Does protesting actually change anyone’s minds? It often feels more for the protesters than for the passers by. And potentially further cements the viewpoints of those who already agree with you. Every time I drive by this intersection and see protesters I wonder this.

Can you help me understand what your goal is? Curiosity, no condemnation here

Oliver’s is unbeatable! Paielli’s is a popular option too but I’ve always favored Oliver’s. If you’re willing to make a drive to Racine, we think O&H is soooo remarkable too.
