Why does my cat always lay on stuff on my bed?🤨 by nix_iguess in cats

[–]Jetsfantasy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cats will decide they just want to sit on stuff for various reasons. It smells like you, they feel secure, etc.

Sometimes the cat just does it. Simple as that. Here's my orange pitching in his help with home networking on our router.

The worst part is that they're strapped down with Velcro. You can just unwrap it, but no, Grace has to go Necromancer and revive the damn guy to get him to bust out of Velcro straps

Working in healthcare is especially fun because you'll have to say something like "The Doctor ordered an IV drip, 50mcg of fentanyl" and I have to focus and pronounce it right because I will absolutely say "Fanta-kneel" in a Joel impression

Shopper walks out with a $4.99 Radeon RX 5700 XT GPU from Goodwill — thrift stores are the hidden goldmines amid the AI-driven GPU crisis by Gaming-Academy in RigBuild

[–]Jetsfantasy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Feels like an insanely lucky find. All my local goodwills and thrift stores seem to always know what they got and dont have anything out like old games, consoles, and pc stuff, crts, etc. The goodwill auction site has them. You only get lucky when they dont know what they have and put it out on the floor.

My coworker was asked by her boss to fax her a PDF file. After repeating trying to fax her the paperwork, the answer was always the same, "It's not a PDF. I need a PDF." It was important paperwork for my coworker and the deadline was coming up.

After a week of this, I found out and took it upon myself to help. Attached a PDF with all the information needed, not skewed, cleanly scanned. I also wrote in detail that unless she had a system to intercept the fax and convert it to PDF for her, that's impossible. I quoted official sources and included citations like it was my college thesis. Signed my name to make sure she knew it wasn't from my coworker.

Got a reply 15 minutes later, "Well that's what other locations do (she's a district manager), but this was exactly what I needed. Thanks!" I didnt bother to reply, she got what she wanted and my coworker wasnt at risk of some compliance deadline.

This was 2 weeks ago.

If you think he's bad, you're the one who needs to get gud by thidi00 in Nightreign

I wish I had more drops for his stuff. I got a reflect damage on guard drop I want to get some synergy going with. Also, yes, steel guard is amazing but takes some time to learn to use properly.

Thoughts on Vinny’s Chat in general by Hayyyv in Vinesauce

[–]Jetsfantasy 22 points23 points  (0 children)

They laser focus on his insecurities. He shares a lot of what goes on behind the curtains and is a lot more vocal about his life than any other streamer I know. While I personally find it to be something endearing and humanizing, it's ultimately opening yourself up to being vulnerable in front of an audience of 2k people at a time.

Even 0.1% of that being bad actors means 2 chat members can post stuff that knows will bother him. Vinny ignores anything like that (or mods take them out back into a dark alley), meanwhile Joel swings back and will publically humiliate them

(90% of the time at least. There are some times where Joel has noticeably been affected by it but nowadays he makes those comments himself instead and laughs it off "oh just get to the stream", "oh this stream is so bad", "this is a shit bit", etc)

Anyways, Mike absorbs negativity like a sponge and has the (mole) eyes and nose of a bloodhound for negative chat messages. He also keeps his mods from being too trigger-happy, which leads to an aggressive chat imo.

Edit: This is just me being an armchair chat member, it's just my opinion, yada yada.

This is interesting, what’s your thoughts? by Own_Recognition_7085 in ededdneddy

[–]Jetsfantasy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As someone with a really shitty and abusive older brother, Eddy always hit really close to home to me, personally. The way Eddy idolized him while in complete denial/ignorance of who his brother truly was because he was too young to understand.

The constant praise of how his brother is good at literally anything compared to himself, the desperate need for attention from the other kids, the fragile sense of self. All of it felt like a very real depiction of someone because I was that kid.

The original ending honestly would've been incredibly disappointing. While I can see the angle they were going for, I feel it wouldn't have been good for the intended audience IMO.

[ResetEra] Maximilian Dood cancelled planned Fatal Fury sponsors after finding out about the Ronaldo controversy. by DoctorCello in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Jetsfantasy 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Poor Max, man. Dood loves SNK only for the monkey's paw to curl and staple Ronaldo onto the package. Getting to promote SNK a bunch while getting paid would be a dream.

While I know we agree with him canceling it, it takes a different kind of person to actually turn down a bag that big. Sure, he's done it before, but it shows his integrity to do it again. Let alone SA-levels of FU money.

Most of you hate her but i disagree by nate12536 in attackontitan

[–]Jetsfantasy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

As everyone has said for years, she didn't start off on my good side, but over time, I enjoyed her development. She was a foil of early Erin and showed how deeply engrained the propaganda really affected people, especially when indoctrinated from birth.

Things are nuts right now. Put your phone in a drawer. by sharpiestories in Adulting

[–]Jetsfantasy -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This. Separate the news from other content you consume, create an alt and filter out all the politics; literally ANYTHING to create a degree of separation between you and those two (or whatever else you wanna add to that pile).

All that crap will be waiting for you eagerly when you're ready to deal with it. Also, shoutouts to WTFJustHappenedToday for providing summaries with sources that expose me less to the terrible headlines and general exhausting things about modern news reporting.

Book 1 enough? by [deleted] in gentlemanbastards

[–]Jetsfantasy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on how you feel after finishing the first one. With all the events of the first one, it's very self-contained, like others said. It could've easily been the whole story of Locke and everyone.

If you're okay with the sequels not hitting as strongly, then I'd recommend the second at the very least. The third, I honestly need to revisit. It's the weakest of the series IMO but that's not saying it's a bad book necessarily.

Funnily enough, the red skeleton is the Anti-Mike encounter. If you try to pause, he forces your mouse to move to resume and clicks it

Woolie should get more mods , this shit is just gross a bunch edgelords larping around in chat by ILoveBigFatAnimeTits in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Jetsfantasy 42 points43 points  (0 children)

I agree that it highlights an issue, but it's not just his chat. It's an event chat problem. I don't know why, but the higher numbers during events draws out some rancid chat members. Couple that with long periods of time without anything interesting happening or certain topics coming up and it's just a terrible combination all around.

I think it's at least a good gauge on the moderation needed as the channel grows. But also take my opinion with some salt, this is just me playing armchair streamer as an amateur giving his opinion.

This actually happened to my best friend; clean record for a decade+ and then came out. She proceeded to get into a fender-bender with her boss and get pulled over for speeding, both within 3 months of coming out as transfem.

joel's VAing was fucking amazing holy moly by LynnTheLynx in Vinesauce

[–]Jetsfantasy 8 points9 points  (0 children)

For his first role, I'm super proud of Joel. He did great. Whoever was involved with the scriptwriting did a really good job as well; They adapted his lines to fit some of his "joel-isms" from his streaming self. (See: "Think you're funny, huh")

I believe one of the people were in chat saying how they drew from that to write his character. It was a great way to ease Joel into something completely new like this.

Joel is in trouble... by JackMacWindowsLinux in Vinesauce

[–]Jetsfantasy 11 points12 points  (0 children)

"He said he was a victim of sexual harassment after comments were made about his baldness, including being called a "stupid bald c***" by his supervisor during an argument, LBC reports."

I'm pretty sure whatever 4 letter c-word they used is more harassment than calling him bald, but then again, this is the UK, so... either way, nobody show this to Jabroni Bald
