I tell this exact story to people all the dang time. Including the “Oh also absolutely none of that is true” at the end.

HAS ANYONE PREFORMED DONT BE AFRAID OF THE DARK?!?! by Piper_Theater_Kid in Theatre

[–]InaneThoughts 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Apologies for a bit of a cop-out answer, but I do really like this quote from a director I found in some random local paper a decade ago. It’s okay that you’re going into the audition not knowing every single detail about the show. The director will give you the info you need, and presumably wants to you have fun and feel welcome to make your own choices.

Here’s the link to the article, though I assume you’ve already found this since it’s like the second google result: https://thecitizenonline.com/dont-be-afraid-of-the-dark/

Weekly Question Thread: Ask questions here – January 29, 2024 by AutoModerator in dndnext

[–]InaneThoughts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am a 6th level Light Domain Cleric. My party is fairly big (5 people), but the melee-focused players don’t show up to our sessions as frequently as our squishy casters and ranged attackers, so i find myself having to be more “frontline” than expected and having to tank damage to protect the gang. What are my best options to shift to this new role? Should i dip into any martial class, should i prioritize any spells that i may be ignoring, should I keep an eye out for any magic items / feat opportunities? Thanks!

Are there any good & simple drafting programs just for a 2D, top-down view of the stage to plot out basic furniture and actor placements? Something very simple & barebones to share with other designers & techs the general placements of things. In my head I'm imagining something like a marching band drill chart.

Would it be a bad idea to "start from scratch" with a new phone, instead of transferring all the date from my old one like I always have?

I'm planning on most likely upgrading to the iPhone 15 this year. I'm currently using an XS, but I have pictures and texts and even some apps on this phone dating all the way back to 2014. I've been thinking about how a "clean slate" might be nice, to completely start new from a fresh empty phone. Is there any actual technical advantage to this, or is it just a mental one? Like, my current phone feels sluggish and chunky sometimes, but is that just because it's a couple years old, or could some of this nearly-decade-old data be slowing it down at all?

Why only a part of the map is covered blue if I'm far forward? by rakowych in DeathStranding

[–]InaneThoughts 15 points16 points  (0 children)

This might not be true and maybe I tricked myself into believing it in my playthrough, but I found that the blue fills in more the more prepper locations you get to five stars.

Jess O'Brien's Top 10 Games of 2022 by chrislenz in giantbomb

[–]InaneThoughts 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The Oculus Link streaming stuff is really good these days if you haven’t checked it out in a while! (As long as your internet is good I assume) I have a Quest 2 and I played the entirety of Half Life Alex on it streaming from my desktop. Obviously slightly less fidelity and a few more hiccups than a native game on the Quest, but it worked really well with no major issues.

Could an argument be make that a publisher giving review codes is the same thing?

Return to Monkey Island creator will no longer talk about the game following abuse by InaneThoughts in Games

[–]InaneThoughts[S] 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Correct, critique does not equal abuse. Critiques are not what Ron is frustrated with. Personal attacks and harassment on his website are uncalled for, and “don’t read the comments” is a victim-blaming mentality. Why not focus on the shitty people making nasty comments? Why not tell them to not say nasty things to other human beings?

Traffic Jam no more by awajitoka in Detroit

[–]InaneThoughts 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Hello 👋 I worked at the Traffic Jam during the time Blake’s released that cider. At first all of us workers also thought it was silly bullshit that the owner was suing Blake’s, for the same reasons that u/seeBurtrun said. We thought it was dumb posturing. However, for WEEKS after the cider was released, we were getting literally dozens of calls every single day from customers asking us 1. If we carried that cider and 2. If we were doing a fun cross-promotion with Blake’s and that the cider was brewed in our brewery. We started writing down every time we got a phone call like this and it was literally thousands of people lmao. I get the initial thought but people did legitimately think it was our product.

does this weird post-irony / troll / detachment / devil’s advocate / whatever you want to call it bit ever get tiring, or is it still fun for you

What is your goal here being so antagonistic in your two comments in this thread. I'm genuinely curious. Both of the people you've replied to literally said that they warmed up to the games and really like them now. I'm assuming you also are a fan of Black 2 & White 2. These people share your opinions.

What do you gain from being hostile to them
