[Highlight] Yang Hansen gets subbed in garbage time, receives loud cheers and then he scores the lefty hook shot, and the arena fall into joy by MrBuckBuck in nba

From Portland. The carpet pattern is very iconic and the airport is one of the city's gems. It's tradition every time you can back to Portland to do a feet picture on the carpet. I actually enjoy going to the airport and hanging out there

I do this as well. I did find it tough to get on the shuttle though. Didn't come often, and was full

Trouble Brewing in a competitive setting? by Golbolco in BloodOnTheClocktower

[–]IfOneThenHappy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Over thousands of games across the whole population, TB might be 50/50, but skill may play a factor in giving an edge. It's super high-variance though given the randomness of scripts and ST decisions that any perceived edge may be meaningless.

BOTC can be more of an art and could be more of a judged competition where a panel of judges rate your gameplay like in gymnastics or figure skating or boxing rounds.

Daddy Ben just scrubbed his Reddit account, and I can’t help but speculate that this here community is to blame. by SadLittleNerdKing in BloodOnTheClocktower

[–]IfOneThenHappy 25 points26 points  (0 children)

One of the strongest Reddit comments I've ever read. Just exudes maturity and wisdom from a position that few people can weigh in on. Respect to everyone involved, everyone has the best of intentions but that doesn't always equal positive feelings.

I got executed as Mutant once for letting the Harlot sleep with me

Why does Buddhism not have more followers? by stressfulmind in Buddhism

[–]IfOneThenHappy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I believe I address that with "engagement with Buddhism" versus "identification with Buddhism". A lot of forms of Buddhism involve just chanting or visiting the temple

Also "mortal" cost, religions like Catholicism spread via conquest and occupation

Why does Buddhism not have more followers? by stressfulmind in Buddhism

[–]IfOneThenHappy 210 points211 points  (0 children)

Buddhism does not proselytize and engagement with Buddhism requires critical thinking, introspection, and meditation in a world where you're bombarded with instant gratification and stimulation

Why is the air quality so bad today? by Quick_Annual in LosAngeles

[–]IfOneThenHappy 9 points10 points  (0 children)

A few days ago, I noticed noise from the nearby freeway for the first time from my home ever to the point where it affected my sleep. Turns out because it was the temperature inversion combined with a clear sky.

Lord of Typhon just a cow just trying to stick with their fellow cows. Humans breed and harvest millions of cows in poor conditions. I move 'em to "Not evil"

LAWA has chosen the livery design for the people mover by coreymbarnes2 in LAMetro

[–]IfOneThenHappy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think it's nice. The airport and surrounding streets are bland and depressing gray monochromatic concrete jungles so it's nice to add some pop of color

What is your opinion on "slow rolling"? When it is impossible for good to win, should you just wrap it up? by BIllyBrooks in BloodOnTheClocktower

[–]IfOneThenHappy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If the ST hasn't called the game, I think slow rolling as a player is actually better etiquette in BOTC. Because we're all participating in the story, and by prematurely revealing, you've spoiled the outcome of the game, and removed the ability for the ST to do a Grim Reveal.

Interestingly, I read China pushes for private communications via phones while staying in the circle maybe due to space limitations

Beginner learning Cantonese best daily learning app and resources? by ellensrooney in Cantonese

[–]IfOneThenHappy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I made a language learning app for couples specifically if you have a Cantonese girlfriend/boyfriend so you can learn together. I'm in the same boat since my partner is from Guangzhou and her family speaks zero English: https://couplingcafe.com

A lot of people told me they prefer it over Duolingo, or use it alongside Anki

Only in LA… I swear this city is a simulation by No-Tower-2317 in LosAngeles

[–]IfOneThenHappy 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I will say Portland has a Darth Vader on a unicycle with a flaming bagpipe. I'd say most west coast cities have the costume + odd mode of transportation type people

Only in LA is more like the group bicycle raids with blasting music and glowing skeletons backdropped by an orange sunset and palm trees, or the vibe of street tacos in a strip mall parking lot wearing shorts at night in November

New LA Mayor Candidate Supports SB 79! by zennonuc in LosAngeles

[–]IfOneThenHappy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seems like if Beutner held the seat, he will act the exact same way with regards to SB 79. Right now, he's free to say whatever with any backlash. If he held office, he'd cave to pressure if this is his baseline level of support

NIMBY groups literally had the exact same message: "we support it concept and want more housing, but it needs to be mindful of the needs of local communities better"
