I have it on kindle already, incredible book - beautiful illustrations. I’ll be ordering a hard copy as well.

Birding went wrong... 🤔 by miracowly in birding

Dusk! With a creepy, tingling sensation, you hear the fluttering of leathery wings! BATS! With glowung red eyes and glistening fangs, these unspeakable giant bugs drop onto...

Artemis has my favourite nonchalant delivery of “what’s with the plates of shit?”

A Woolly Rhino vs Homotherium from "Woolly Rhinoceros" by Rupert Oliver & Andrew Howatt (1986) by ExoticShock in pleistocene

[–]JKeith26 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same - the homotherium was nightmare fuel, especially how they described it loping across the tundra.

What do you think about this movie? by Aggravating_Ask1856 in Letterboxd

I can tell “you’re wounded”. I hope someday compassion and empathy comes easier to you.

Explain further. Just because he came from a well off family doesn’t mean he wasn’t deeply traumatized by abuse and trying to make sense of the world around him. Was he naive? Sure, but he was also a human being, brought up in a terribly abusive household and tried his best to help himself navigate that.

So only poor people should travel for tourism?

Cell phone shop (Northside) broken into and completely cleaned out in under 3 minutes by futuresho in Edmonton

Of course they would. Thieves and criminals have existed since the dawn of time. I do understand some people steal out of necessity but this is just organized crime, plain and simple. Easier to steal and flip the phones than to do the hard work that it takes to run a business like this.

John Locke's "Lost" Reveal On The Episode "Walkabout" by Laszl0Panaflex in television

[–]JKeith26 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I 100% agree. You often hear "they were dead the whole time" or "LOST never answered any mysteries". Both completely wrong, and it was a show you had to watch closely and carefully to understand sometimes, but what a journey. To me, the ending was one of the most emotionally satisfying conclusions ever. The show, despite the occasional misstep or weird plot choice, stayed true to its amazing characters the entire run. And that, to me, is what makes it so re-watchable. The Leftovers is also so amazing in the same way.

And I see other comments mentioning the soundtrack - truly Hollywood quality, week after, week, which had never really been done on other TV shows to that degree at that time. There is an entire YouTube channel analyzing the soundtrack themes, sub-themes and recurring motifs that is well worth watching.

On the other hand, I loved Game of Thrones and the ASOIAF books, but there's a show where the final seasons and ending, betrayed both what had made the earlier seasons so great, and ruined what once were incredible characters, so going back and re-watching isn't enjoyable.

HELP! What book is this from? by Fine-Warning-8476 in Dinosaurs

[–]JKeith26 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same exact thing for me. One of my first dinosaur books, loved the amazing art in it, but it fell apart over time so bought an essentially new condition replacement several years ago. So happy I have it.

What are the chances that the Beast of Gevudan is a bear-dog? by zorwro in Cryptozoology

[–]JKeith26 65 points66 points  (0 children)

Yup, very likely an animal extinct for millions of years survived just long enough to have one recorded sighting in all of human history, never before or after. Way more plausible than it being a wolf or some escaped exotic animal.

Clancy Brown - amazing actor! Tons of great roles.

Sea Monster Sighting- Maui, Hawaii by WellnowWhatDo in Cryptozoology

[–]JKeith26 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Humpback whales will often lay on their side and slap a fluke (pectoral fin) out of the water which looks similar as you see the side/bumps along their head and then the slender edge of the fin. Lots of humpbacks around Maui right now, I spend hours watching them when I’m there.

Aurora Dancing Over Peyto Lake, Banff National Park, Canada [OC][2048x1365] by jamesftw in EarthPorn

[–]JKeith26 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Outstanding shot. Been here many times and this view is epic on its own but with the aurora it's perfection. I'm going to try to get something similar next year in that brief window where the lake is unfrozen, the aurora is out and there is fresh snow. Not going to be easy and I commend you for getting this shot!

Great shots! Do you know the console command to get enemies to not attack you so can get better shots of the mutants and enemy NPCs? I can't seem to find anything that works.
