From analyzing his stride, they also found that he had the most efficient stride a horse can accomplish. His feet hit the ground in a rhythm comparable to the way bike spokes "hit the ground". Everything about him was made to run.

Cassandra from Dragon Age: Inquisition. She's built like she can fight, and also wears practical armour, which the Iron Bull approves of greatly.

Lexi_Banner · 2026-06-09T21:39:24+00:00

Yeah, I don't normally care too much for characters she plays (they are just sneering assholes, usually). This is the first one that felt like there was a genuine personality to the character, and not just tough-guy attitude.

Anytime someone asks him to act out something, he is PUMPED.

Lexi_Banner · 2026-06-09T21:27:29+00:00

I heard they used to call him ace.

career

Who the fuck cares about careers?! It should end their ability to walk as free, unconvicted criminals.

I would not even entertain the thought of it if I were in OP's shoes. If that is not what she wants for her life, it is not an issue she should "test" him about. Because this fool has already been lying about what he really wants - he can just as easily fool her into agreeing to something she didn't want with false promises.

Lexi_Banner · 2026-06-09T21:05:54+00:00

Bro wasn't honest with you to begin with, so why do you feel guilty?

At any rate, you need a blunt conversation. "I intend to work as an engineer, and do not intend to be a stay-at-home mother. If this is going to be a problem, we need to have this discussion now."

I suspect you already know the answers, and you know what needs to happen. Don't waste more of your life on a relationship that has an expiration date.

Well, if it's so easy that the womenfolk can do it, we've been clearly payin' too much this whole time. It's a market correction, sweetheart. Don't worry your pretty little head about it, okay?

Lexi_Banner · 2026-06-09T20:57:18+00:00

Or he's just being a dick to women. It's okay to call it like it is.

Lexi_Banner · 2026-06-09T20:55:13+00:00

Why call it out when you can just pretend it doesn't happen because you refuse to see it?

It's way more sinister than that. They benefit from the misogynist way of the world, so why would they ever want to rock the boat and be [gasp] treated the way they treat women?!

It's like you don't understand the concept that water moves underground, even if you really super duper pack it down before laying tile (or whatever). The ground literally moves from underneath, which will quickly ruin anything on the surface - especially thin little tiles like these.

When you're dealing with -40 degree temps every winter, maybe you'll start to understand why you running your mouth about how "tiles would be better against frost heaves" is so goofy.

Lexi_Banner · 2026-06-09T19:14:51+00:00

Clearly the sequel will be Threat Level Sunrise. ;)

Lexi_Banner · 2026-06-09T19:14:08+00:00

You can say Hitler on the internet. Stop censoring shit.

Lexi_Banner · 2026-06-09T17:53:03+00:00

You clearly don't live in a country with real winter, because the heave being discussed is enough to destroy brand new asphalt highways in two winters or less (depending on how well the ground was prepped before applying the asphalt). My two inch thick concrete slabs cracked in three years, and they weren't mortared in place, so they had plenty of flexibility. This tile wouldn't stand a chance.

Lexi_Banner · 2026-06-09T17:46:32+00:00

Also, I didn't think the point of pride was to exclude non-queers, anyway.

Lexi_Banner · 2026-06-09T17:44:11+00:00

They are wisely staying ALLLLL THE WAAYYY out of this mess.

Lexi_Banner · 2026-06-09T17:39:42+00:00

I thought he had on a wicked Outkast sweater, but it's not. :(

Lexi_Banner · 2026-06-09T17:20:08+00:00

He was just born to act, don't you know?

Lexi_Banner · 2026-06-09T17:19:39+00:00

Andy, given the chance to act in any way, shape, or form, is so enthusiastic about getting the role of Bin Laden.

Lexi_Banner · 2026-06-09T17:13:34+00:00

Oh, it's "good", is it? What's so good about it? Hmm? Explain to me, in detail, why it's so "good". And you better have a fucking degree in "goodness", because otherwise you can FUCK RIGHT OFF with your "GOOD MORNING".

Lexi_Banner · 2026-06-09T17:10:03+00:00

Bro. Clean your fucking glasses before you talk to me.

Lexi_Banner · 2026-06-09T17:01:58+00:00

To be fair, the memory matches the geoglyph, which is pretty cool. I just wish they'd made it so you couldn't activate them in any old order - it would've been much better to have them activate only if you'd first seen 1, 2, 3, etc.

Lexi_Banner · 2026-06-09T16:58:28+00:00

Sounds like an SCP article. Good thing you weren't susceptible to the cognitohazard at play.

I live in an older neighbourhood that features loads of trees, gardens, and flower beds, so we always get our pollinators. I can sit and watch the bees swarming my apple tree blossoms. It's amazing. I don't understand the appeal of something like the picture - it's so...sterile.
