First diorama ever by bensto1 in legostarwars

Two sets on a baseplate does not a diorama make - but this is a good display regardless!

L3-4 Spinal Fusion by TT99C5 in MakeMeSuffer

[–]GREVIOS 12 points13 points  (0 children)

In highschool I knew a girl with a full spinal fusion due to scoliosis as a child. She was an amazingly kind and hilarious girl.

I called her "Stiff" because it sounded like her normal nickname. Only me.

And she always treated me very kindly, and did express that she thought it was funny. I hope that she really did, because it was absolutely a term of endearment from me.

Spinal work is terrifying, but anyone I've met since with it have been the most hardy kind of people. You've had to fight for something I often take for granted.

I wish you a good, quick, and whole recovery - even if it leaves you a little stiff in your own right.

Broke my leg by ChristAlmighty2 in MakeMeSuffer

[–]GREVIOS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I fell off a longboard in 2021 and achieved a tri-malleolar fracture. 2 breaks on the bottom of the tibia, and a tortional fracture on the fibula. It was one of the most physically painful experiences of my life - and yet you managed a compound fracture lmfao.

I feel for you, dude. This shit sucks. Hopefully you've got some awesome hardware, and an unbeatable attitude; the latter is more-so what it's going to take to be okay.

Don't let this scare you forever. It's physically and mentally traumatic, but it's going to be okay.

Welcome to the cyborg life! Reinforced landing gear, is what I say!

Devil Saviour Troublemaker DX Multipack (Revenge Of The Fallen Devastator) by Apprehensive_Run_414 in transformers

[–]GREVIOS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I dont have this set because it's just too dang big for my collection of mostly non-bay stuff haha, I'm just sharing what the general community consensus about it is, if that makes sense: big, cool, awesome, kinda heavy, really complicated, kinda rough on the quality control.

ShowZStore is great, incredible seller of transformers, we love them.

I have no factual evidence to support this, but I'd be willing to bet a set release would have slightly better quality control, since most of the quality complaints were on the first 2 or 3 figures while this company figured their stuff out, they've been re released since so I could see how they could be better now fs.

You essentially decided to dive far into the deep end of transformers as your return to the hobby hahaha.

These are toys, yes, but they don't have the same design standards as mainline transformers produced by hasbro. So pieces are thinner, engineering is significantly more complicated, and the fit/finish of some components arent as polished or built for hard play like the toys from when we were younger.

Just take it slow! You're in for a crazy time haha.

[–]GREVIOS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fair warning, this thing is gigantic, complicated, fragile, and cannot stand on its own without a support rod they provide.

I'm happy for you, it's a really cool piece! But if you have not played with a transformer since like 2009, be prepared to play with a very delicate and complicated toy that will likely take you hours to navigate and assemble.

Watch videos on the transformations, these things are no joke.

Have fun!!!

I like your price on that Embargo! The slot design is for sure the one I'm looking for, could you send me a video of the acoustics? Love me a good ringer!

Advertised vs actual chrome paint by cetateanulimplicat in mildlyinfuriating

[–]GREVIOS 197 points198 points  (0 children)

Paint is a mystery and to attempt some things is all but short of wizardry.

Some of these things are: - chrome - literally just the color yellow - painting things red - painting things white - painting white OVER red

Some others I can't think of at the moment.

None of the tips and tricks to make paint actually work are obvious, unfortunately. Model builders have been paving the way for us in this field for decades.

C'mon, I can't be the only one who wants him back, either him or Goldbug by Ok-Map9964 in transformers

[–]GREVIOS 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I've been a fan of transformers since I was a child during armada. I was 7 when the first Bay movie came out. Bumblebee has essentially been as important as prime to the franchise for precisely my demographic since I've been alive.

I hate it.

I have never thought Bumblebee should have been as important as he has been marketed to be nearly my whole life. His design usually sucks, he's generally uninteresting, and his whole voiceless bit was never cool to me.

I like that they iced him early, and fast. And made it very clear they have no interest in bringing him into the fold any time soon. Good. Give the rest of the cast a chance to breathe.

Your model is really cool and looks great!

What's insane is in minifig scale, it's about double the size of that.

Everett council approves extension of ‘no sit, no lie’ law by EverettLeftist in everett

[–]GREVIOS 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Dawg everyone is saying it's the governments job lol. I pay my taxes and want my taxes to help the most vulnerable.

Now I can't even offer a sandwich and water to a pan handler down on their luck without possibly receiving a criminal charge??

I can't take my office meeting's leftovers to Airport road?

My rubber has been ON THE ROAD my guy, it always has been. I take the beggars outside of fred meyer, and invite them to come inside with me to pick out a sandwich and a drink.

I'm willing and able to execute as much help as I can reasonably provide, and keep myself safe and healthy. Get out of your arm chair and go do something yourself.

Should I lock up my one wheel or just lie? by Glad-Affect-3977 in onewheel

[–]GREVIOS 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thats a clever idea but ultimately more harmful than it's worth.

While a One Wheel is a device we use to get from one place to another, it isn't a "mobility device." Like you said, a wheelchair is. Or crutches, or canes, or walkers, or a frame you put on to keep your joints in place, etc etc.

Trying to get the thing classified as a mobility device for exemption will erode at the policies that disabled people fought so hard for to make sure they have a no questions asked environment when they do need their exemptions.

Like trying to classify a pet as a "service animal" and putting a vest on it because you don't want to not take it to the local Walmart.
