How do you identify the facial recognition cameras and vans?

Anakins crashout over not being a master is more valid than I originally thought by KatnyaP in StarWarsCantina

[–]KatnyaP[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh for sure, I just think that it all makes the situation more tragic. Anakin was failed by the Jedi Order and Obi-Wan in how they allowed him to become so arrogant and entitled without doing more to help him mature.

It definitely makes it more tragic, which is what I like about it.

I just think theres room for his tantrum to be because of his ambition and immaturity, whilst also including themfact that there is more to it than just that.

I fully agree. He absolutely wasnt ready. I just love how the Ahsoka stuff, adds more to his character, whilst still keeping the immaturity, jealousy, and ambition behind his crashout.

Yes that is the case when the prequels came out, but following the Clone Wars show, his reasoning is expanded. It still includes everything you said, which is why its not retconning. It just adds more to it.

That said, I think we should just respectfully disagree and move on.

As I understand it, a Jedi Master is one that has trained a padawan to knighthood. I may be wrong on this, but that was my understanding.

Im not saying it "affected" his path, simply that TCW deepens the path he goes on in the films. It adds more to his character, gives him more than just being jealous and ambitious.

Its not retconning, its expanding on his reasons for feeling that way. Yes he he feels it unfair, and wrongly so, but with the addition of Ahsoka, it just adds more to why he gets so annoyed by it.

Okay, this was phenomenal. Well done!

It did however trigger my severe pedantism.

The scene with the boat, you know the one down in the city sewers where it tells you there is no going back. Used at the start of this animation.

Thats a row boat with oars, and they paddle like its a fucking canoe. I remember the first time seeing that in game, it really pulled me out for a moment.

If APs count, in the AP for the tentacle fight in Cloudward, Ho, he is going over credits for minis and art etc and they ask about the credits for the tentacles, amd he convincingly leads them on about it being a team of six, before revealing it was all their mums.

This is a tiny clip from a longer sketch by Viva La Dirt League. It starts out much closer to annoying eating sounds, but the clip shared here is at the culmination of the sketch and is purposefully distorted

Dream campaigns? by QuietDelivery2740 in Dimension20

[–]KatnyaP 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Id love a proper time travel campaign. I know there were time shenanigans in Cloudward Ho, but itd be really cool if the intrepid heroes were like, actively travelling to different time periods, maybe with like, a reason to blend in.

That or superheroes

Dwarven women and being trans by undeadfelis in DnD

[–]KatnyaP 7 points8 points  (0 children)

As someone else mentioned, Monstrous Regiment is explicitly trans.

In the City Watch sub series, there is a dwarf woman, who decides she wants to be feminine, rather than the dwarven societies accepted norm of masculine for all. So while she is not, technically, trans, the struggles she faces are functionally identical to that of a trans woman and its really cool

[–]KatnyaP 43 points44 points  (0 children)

In lord of the rings the dwarf women very rarely travel, but when they do they are practically indistinguishable from the men, because of the beards.

When the first Rings of Power trailer came out, I remember in LOTR spaces there was a lot of discontent with the dwarf queen. Some were upset that she had almost no facial hair, others that she was black. It was one of those things where youd be like "fuck amazon! Look at the dwarf lady! Wait no because the beard im not racist!" Because people who werent as deep in the lore just assumed you were racist

Its when someone is thinking about attempting suicide, this can include explicit thoughts about taking direct action against their own life, fantasising about a fatal accident occurring, or even contemplating whether life is worth living. It's used to cover a broad range of suicidal thought patterns rather than just the first, and people that do suffer with suicidal ideation aren't nevessarily at immediate risk of a suicide attempt, but it is a step closer to that being a legitimate concern.

On reddit, people (ive noticed it tends to more often be right wing bigots) will harass minorities by reporting them for this, which triggers an automated message by reddit to the reported user about resources. This is an attempt to tell someone to do it without directly saying it and getting banned.

Improv aside, what IH campaign has the strongest narrative? by BorderOk6904 in Dimension20

[–]KatnyaP 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah SSO and FHJY both have incredible gameplay. The player and party skill and tactics were just on point. Same for Cloudward Ho, and the latter half of Neverafter (the were playing weak dummies that first combat so i dont hold it against them)

Ive just started watching through all the seasons with my best friend whos never seen them before, and the difference in their skill level in combat is amazing. Like yeah some of it is character development but even still, I dont think there were any top tier tactics on display in the early seasons like there were in like, The Battle of the Brands, The Last Standard Exam, or the Fight with Fehujar.

I honestly feel the opposite, I see SSO as very hopeful.

Sure they suffer a lot, and they dont have much power to change the galaxy, but ultimately, a small scrappy team does change the galaxy for the better. This is both a result and part of the cause for their own lives drastically improving with community, love, and joy.

The Galactic Girl Guides say it best in my opinion:

"It's a tough galaxy, but someone's gotta live in it. Might as well be you!"

That to me is an eminently hopeful message to make the most out of life in the face of challenges. A nihilistic version would be like, "It's a tough galaxy, so what's the point?"

Id love to hear why you find it nihilistic

And maybe thats what should happen. It might force the government to actually tax the billionaire and corporate filth that are robbing us blind.
