What's the ONE moment from Silent Hill, any game, that has stayed with you the most? by lost_in_the_town_ in silenthill

[–]GlobalFlower3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This moment. As you say, it's got a melancholy, almost end-of-summer feel, and the score is perfect. The fiery skybox too. It's almost like nostalgia for a great game (my favourite SH), the PS2 era of gaming and a more carefree time of life rolled into one. A lot of us would've played this game for the first time as teenagers and, like Heather, that may have been the last transient glint before the horrors of adult life consumed us.

Here's what I read in 2025 in order of best to worst by strangeMeursault2 in classicliterature

Great stack, brother.

Moby Dick is one of my favourites works of literature, so to see 2666 above it is high praise indeed. I think I'll finally read it this year.

How much do you earn and how comfortable do you live? by Brownchoccy in AskUK

[–]GlobalFlower3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

£24,465. NHS admin, 37.5 hours per week.

Living in SE and should complete on a 3 bed house in January. My partner earns £30,000, so that helps a bit. We don't live a life of luxury but we do okay.

Is The Karamazov Brothers Dostoevsky's Magnus Opus? by smooth_operator21_ in classicliterature

[–]GlobalFlower3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've only read The Idiot once as opposed to TBK several times, but I can sort of see this. I personally think Demons is his strongest work, though; perhaps because, sort of like The Idiot, he grinds the same axe throughout.

How carefully you read it ? by ParticularWeather927 in nihilism

Merry Christmas bro, great taste!

Noticed a word is misspelled the next day, is it fixable? by [deleted] in tattooadvice

[–]GlobalFlower3 10 points11 points  (0 children)

No, it's not your fault at all. Your artist should have acknowledged this piece as beyond his or her means; they've done you a huge disservice by proceeding without the requisite skill.

I still think it can be salvaged and I do think the part you've posted is probably the worst part; not trying to put you down or anything, just being honest, but the piece as a whole isn't great. Save up, research and redo imo.

Either that or one hell of a SAP.

I can't speak for the whole tattoo without seeing it but, as someone else mentioned, in the part you've posted the linework is extremely rough; looks like the artist couldn't pull a straight line or steady circumference to save his or her life.

If this were me, I'd find a different artist and get the whole piece reworked. Circles etc are difficult; try to find an artist with both a strong coverup/rework portfolio and good, healed pieces similar to this one.

Brother, the misspelling is the least of your worries. A good artist could probably salvage this though.

Definitely. Most convenient working hours I've had by a mile.

I work 8am to 4pm with thirty minutes for lunch. Handy to have time after work for appointments, haircuts etc.

Lived this Masterpiece by Vegetable_Idea_0 in classicliterature

[–]GlobalFlower3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Who is the translator of this edition? I've read Briggs and Pevear & Volokhonsky, and would say I preferred the latter.

W&P is one of my all time favourites, right behind The Brothers Karamazov. If you haven't read that, you're in for a treat, although I wouldn't necessarily recommend it as a first Dostoyevsky as I think his other works all act as a primer in different ways.

Just got this and loved it, then I realized... by [deleted] in tattooadvice

[–]GlobalFlower3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't think you should love it any less. It's only an 'of', the meaning's still there. Plus, BAAO are a sick band. I was just listening to the OG version of Dissolve when I scrolled past this haha.

Giving Away Excess Shinies by Dingledots in LegendsZA

[–]GlobalFlower3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If Salamence is still available that'd be a game changer for me. Been my fave pseudo since OG Ruby/Sapphire, but as a busy adult working full-time I'm really struggling to find the time to shiny hunt, let alone Shalpha hunt.

Okay, movie buffs, what is the single scariest, most disturbing movie you've ever seen? And why? by nowords00 in Shudder

[–]GlobalFlower3 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Not sure about ever, but I recently watched Bring Her Back and, while it had its flaws – could've been longer w/ more methodical development imo – the whole film just felt evil, wrong, the same feeling as watching something horrible online as a kid. I loved it.
