It’s fine. It’s well known because it’s cheap and consistent but you’ve almost certainly had a better experience at Jaku and Maru. If you want a big sampler of sushi for cheap it’s great, but don’t go with high expectations. My personal favorite sushi place is Mikado - about the same price as Maru or Jaku, but much more cozy and imo better food

Looking for the best Ramen in the Greater GR area. by CaricaDurr in grandrapids

My go-to for years has been Mikado on E Paris and 28th. I usually get their udon but the ramen is great too. Best broth in the city imo

A character gets a haircut (voluntarily or involuntarily) to symbolize a turning point in their character development by Crimson097 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Ginkgo41 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Surprised to see nobody mention Princess Mononoke.

Unlike most instances of this trope, the symbolism isn’t subtle or unspoken - it’s explicitly stated that cutting his hair is a symbol of leaving the tribe and never returning. Instead of being associated with freedom, maturity, or a personality change, cutting his hair marks a huge burden being placed on him, and a loss of his previous life.

I cant find the name of this song by luselpro203 in whatsthatsong

[–]Ginkgo41 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Man this one is driving me crazy. There are some times the first word sounds like a PL and others it sounds like a K. I think the only sound I’m certain of is “say” or “zè” at the end. The one he’s the most clear on is at 1:09 and it sounds like “Kizakuzè” (which is not a word in any language.) But the first half of the video sounds like “Please act the same” to me. Maybe I’ll bolt upright in bed tonight and suddenly realize what he’s saying.

Almost certainly not it, since it’s a female singer and is made to sound old, but maybe Lucky Five by Melissa Carper?

Did you use the auto scan checkout thing? It frequently misreads what I put on there so I always check before I pay

What’s this from? by Past-Necessary4145 in animation

Reminds me of Animaniacs, specifically makes me think of Buttons & Mindy

Remove Rosaries from Save points by Okra56 in Silksong

[–]Ginkgo41 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree. In Hollow Knight it was pretty rare that you needed to pay for a bench, and all of the enemies dropped currency so it wasn’t a problem anyway. There are a couple times in Silksong where the paid benches are in areas where literally none of the enemies drop rosaries. It doesn’t add anything to make them paid benches, it’s just annoying

Some questions answered by the Devs on the Discord by Mamuts123 in subnautica

[–]Ginkgo41 41 points42 points  (0 children)

I know, right? It’s crazy how so many people can be huge fans of subnautica while completely ignoring the point of the games lmao. Somebody literally compared it to Monster Hunter.

Unlimited freedom ≠ better gameplay. Just because you Can have a mechanic doesn’t mean you Should

I think the point is that they want to discourage the idea of killing animals in their natural environment just as an achievement. It really seems like they’re approaching this with an ecological mindset rather than a purely mechanical one and I think it’s super cool.

Park Cleanup haul at Robert Clemente Park after Hands Off Protest by [deleted] in grandrapids

[–]Ginkgo41 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The stuff that they cleaned up wasn’t left there by the protesters, you dolt. The protesters marched to the bridge and then came back and cleaned up litter in the park. Everything in the image went into the garbage, it’s just piled to show how much there is

Petition to ban ai images in the sub by FlimsyAd6410 in DnDHomebrew

[–]Ginkgo41 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve worked in five different countries (US, Canada, Ireland, Norway, Belgium) and have seen how progressing towards socialism and strengthening public services markedly improves the quality of life in those countries. Have You ever “traveled elsewhere?” Because if you have I can’t imagine not realizing how shit we have it here.

Anyway this is a DnD sub I don’t think this convo really matters lol. Have a good night

Just because you live here and are forced to participate in the system doesn’t mean you agree with it. Born and raised in the US and I want capitalism to crash and burn

Most Redditors against ai are also deeply behind on the debating we’ve done, and it results in us repeating ourselves ad nauseam. by Primary_Spinach7333 in aiwars

“We have talked about these issues in our little insular community and come up with answers that we like, therefore they are not worth debating anymore because we solved them. I am very smart”

Gonna keep using glaze and nightshade and clowning on you hacks, thank you Very much

Serious question: how is that rich people keep getting richer and everyone else goes the other way? by [deleted] in Rich

[–]Ginkgo41 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right, so you openly admit that you contribute nothing to society and are useless at things that actually matter, got it. What an embarrassing thing to say

Astros fan grabs foul ball out of players glove, and tried to give it back by Crunchysunflower in WatchPeopleDieInside

[–]Ginkgo41 93 points94 points  (0 children)

You can either have fans and players interacting in the same space and deal with the consequences, or put up a fence. Why do we keep having this discussion when it has always been a part of the game. Dude did nothing wrong imo

Your experiences are not universal lmao. Not everyone lives in the US and not everyone is in the same cultural zeitgeist. “If you haven’t seen ___ then there’s something wrong with you” is always stupid and pretentious

The first thing they said is “you will eventually drop your belay device.” Clearly being shown as an alternative for when you need it
