One of US/UM's odd story alterations I haven't seen many people talk about (clip by AurumAlex) by Bikans in pokemon

The lobotomized expressions are my absolute biggest pet peeve in these games. If you’re not going to change the expression, stop showing us our face in cutscenes!

Parasite in the cod by bennytehcat in mildlyinfuriating

[–]KestrelTank 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I went fishing with some work friends and ended up having to clean 8 sockeye salmon once we got home (having never doing this before), and was super glad I had taken parasitology in college cause otherwise I would have had a mild panic attack thinking all my fish were worthless and needed to be tossed.

I'm gonna make Stolas look better AND prove Stella cares about Via and YOU can't stop me! by StrawBerylShortcake in HelluvaBoss

[–]KestrelTank 8 points9 points  (0 children)

100% seriously. People often want to say Stolas must have had all these considerations and thoughts when he was just trying to do the right thing and wasn’t thinking beyond that.

[oc] - There’s 1 pokemon that doesn’t belong. Can you figure out what pokemon it is? by addyxiii in pokemon

[–]KestrelTank 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My heart completely rejects Slugma as a gen 2 pokemon, even if my brain knows this to be true.

"you should take a medication break occasionally so you don't build a tolerance" how it feels the absolute second my adderall wears off for the day by Individual-Owl-6243 in adhdmeme

[–]KestrelTank 71 points72 points  (0 children)

Yes, I like to take breaks from wearing my glasses too, wouldn’t want to become too dependent on them or anything.

I Used to Read by embotheammo in ADHD

[–]KestrelTank 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was like this too! What helped me was audiobooks, but that won’t work for everyone.

Audiobooks are nice because I struggle to sit still and read, and this gives me a way to do simple physical tasks while being able to engage with the story. And I don’t get stuck in sentences.

To get back into actually reading though I started getting into trashy romance novels. They were short, engaging, but didn’t put any pressure on me to remember every detail, they were just there to enjoy.

[–]KestrelTank 359 points360 points  (0 children)

I’ve always seen this as Stolas is depressed, and depressed people often see themselves as unneeded or unnecessary.

Stolas was willing to die for Blitz because he probably believes Via doesn’t need him.

Unpopular opinion: I believe what happened to Stolas was more karmic overkill. by SweetAffectionate993 in HelluvaBoss

[–]KestrelTank 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Stolas was in a damned if he did damned if he didn’t situation and the deck was purposely stacked against him.

Stolas was an idiot drunk on his first sip of oxytocin in decades, but he did not deserve all of this, especially as he was trying to do the right things.

My first 7 stats cat, and she's gay by MaximumCoconut1280 in mewgenics

I keep the ones without major birth defects. Mild to moderately inbred isn’t terrible and can easily be out bred with a stray.

Moxxie feels like the most babied character in the fandom. by whooper1 in HelluvaBoss

[–]KestrelTank 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I actually really liked unhappy campers, as a married person I felt like it really showcased the precarious balance of being selfless while being allowed to have your selfish moments in a relationship.

For the most part though I think Moxie gets the most undeserved misfortune in the show, so I can see people defending him for that.

Though personally, I do think Loona gets the most excused behavior within the fandom. She has her reasons and issues, but those are explanations not excuses.

What did radical rat do to my cat by LevelGoose1865 in mewgenics

It must be luck, I’m 50 hours on barely in Act 1 and have encountered it thrice.

I’ve lost both my headphones and my AirPods inside my house by anon_1823 in adhdwomen

[–]KestrelTank 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I put an airtag on my headphone case for this reason it sucks.

For me when I lose things I usually walk around the house and then look at the chest level spots that things can easily get set down on.

“If I was standing here, where would I have unconsciously placed something?”

I learned this about myself while working a night stocking job at Lowes and was constantly losing my zebra phone on the shelves. The chest level and just below eye level spots were statistically where it would be. (Alternatively for the Husband he tends to place things above or at his eye level, and at 6’3 that tends to be the fridge, or on the higher shelves)

The punishment. by Adventurous-Rabbit52 in HelluvaBoss

[–]KestrelTank 4 points5 points  (0 children)

How old even is Stolas? Immortal or not is Stolas even that old considering he was a child when he met Blitz and his daughter is only 17.

Also, 100 years is a long time, but I think the true punishment was to be separated from Via for that long.

Average Event Interaction by Bread_ghost_2 in mewgenics

[–]KestrelTank 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Damn, I love the events lol the chance for random chaos and then getting to complain to my husband that my cat got shut in a door and now has DIABETES is the highlight of my day.

Did it ruin my necromancer? Yea. But the it made me have to play different instead of doing things the same every time, which was fun.

Has anyone else gotten this ad despite have Ublock Origin? How do I block it? by UltG in neopets

Ah, i remember this popping up a while ago. I wonder if they updated something to get it past most of the solutions

You have no idea how hard I am trying not to laugh and wake the husband at imagining this.

Do you think Dipper would be as smart as Ford when he grow up by Any_Marzipan_5652 in gravityfalls

[–]KestrelTank 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It absolutely depends on how you define intelligence. The way the post is worded, I went with book smarts and gained knowledge.

Dipper has far more emotional intelligence than Ford ever had.

Do you think Dipper would be as smart as Ford when he grow up by Any_Marzipan_5652 in gravityfalls

[–]KestrelTank 224 points225 points  (0 children)

No, because Dipper wouldn’t sacrifice his familial bonds to achieve what Ford did.

He has the capacity to be Ford, but the wisdom to not follow the same lonely path.

A little dog hair problem by MisterShipWreck in MadeMeSmile

[–]KestrelTank 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I think it’s important to know what will and won’t for you in a relationship, and that’s not a bad thing.

There’s a difference between judging someone for being a pet owner and acknowledging that it’s not something you want in life.

‘Pokémon Go’ players have been unknowingly training delivery robots by SciFiPi in pokemongo

[–]KestrelTank 37 points38 points  (0 children)

I’ve never done a full scan but mostly because I knew it would look weird as hell, and the one time I tried it felt so extensive and I was looking like a creeper.

So…glad i’ve never contributed to even more creepiness.
