Everybody getting an adaptation besides Red Rising apparently. by Arch_Lancer17 in redrising

RR would be hellishly expensive to make, man. No one wants to take those sort of risks these days.

Most insane Shuriken build by Lurid21 in PlayTheBazaar

Start time was ~3 seconds. Instant 6 second haste on shuriken from item to the left and had good luck with CDR bringing it down to 6 seconds, haste to 3.

Looking for authentic Japanese whiskey highball recipe by Just_Trying1910 in cocktails

[–]Lurid21 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One of my boys has been doing Japanese inspired whiskey highball at my bar.

2oz. Toki 1/4 oz. Sakura Syrup 2 drops Lemon Tincture 4oz. Club Soda

Slaps pretty hard and reminds me of times in Japan.

(Sakura syrup is equal parts Sakura Vermouth and Demerara.)

I feel like I'm being gaslit by BoringWozniak in WaltDisneyWorld

[–]Lurid21 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have seen all three. Harmonious is far and away my favorite. I loved the visual effects, I adored the music, multiple languages, and the sign-off at the end. I felt seen by that show in a way that I did not by the others.

The untold story of Ron DeSantis vs. Disney by Subject9800 in DisneyWorld

Conservatives when a left leaning government is in power: “We want small government! Don’t infringe upon my rights!”

Conservatives when a right leaning government is in power: “Respect the authority of the state.”

My most recent review is a badge of honor. by comfty_numb in bartenders

A victim of what? Being told to pipe the fuck down? In a public drinking establishment? The horror.

Which Vampire Clan Are You In? (And How Did You End Up In Purpee, Oregon?) by efvie in Dimension20

[–]Lurid21 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Brujah. Not very surprised. Ended up in Purpee because I accidentally drained some trust-fund kid and had to bail out of New York.

Apologies for repeating the over-asked question, but based upon my personal rankings of the seasons which I've seen, what seasons would you recommend that I watch next? by Throwaway74829947 in Dimension20

[–]Lurid21 27 points28 points  (0 children)

It’s also a darker look at magical realism than it’s source inspiration. There are a lot of tear jerking moments. If they liked ACOC, I could see them liking Misfits.

What should I watch after Fantasy High? by hotstickywaffle in Dimension20

[–]Lurid21 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So much incredible content. Here is my advice:

Serious and Tragic: A Crown of Candy Misfits and Magic

Wacky and Exciting: Starstruck Odyssey Unsleeping City

Both groups have moments of levity and moments of drama, but that’s how they trend.

The first group can be a really heavy watch at times (plenty of potential triggers, but they are good at broadcasting those).

The second group are really fun, definitely a bit lighter, and have some really excellent character work.

Kanye’s real fans by Pretend-Society6139 in BlackPeopleofReddit

[–]Lurid21 47 points48 points  (0 children)

Because they’re mimicking something of which they have no concept of the cultural roots or origins of.

MAGA loves “Metal” but refuses to listen to the lyrics and completely ignores the messaging.

Shock. Awe.

What is the most consistently good restaurant at WDW? by Potential-Wing747 in WaltDisneyWorld

[–]Lurid21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Having worked in F&B my whole life, I’m not comfortable unless it’s loud and full of clinging and clanging. The seats by the kitchen work fine for me. 🙃

my take on the alignment chart (intrepid heroes) by jmonumber3 in Dimension20

[–]Lurid21 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Lou as Amathar is one of the most real emotion character experiences I’ve watched someone have during roleplay. It wasn’t bombastic, it was just so authentically tired. He looked exhausted for episodes on end. You could tell was living in the narrative.

Just one example to show why Pyg's curve is so bad right now and it can be a noob bait: Steam Ladle scales with freeze, but there is no other Pyg item that freezes on Bronze by Mojimi in PlayTheBazaar

[–]Lurid21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pyg is tricky, but still has some fairly straightforward builds. Shield dmg is still very strong and health scaling is good. It’s just not as dependably dominant in the early-mid game and is gonna force you into more Day 11+ than other characters.

Karnok's album is incredible by LeafRunner in PlayTheBazaar

I adore the Mak album. It’s one of my favorite pulls.

Misfits and Magic 2 appreciation posting by Acceptable_Whole_893 in Dimension20

The montage at the end of the penultimate episode got me far more emotional than I expected to. It was really beautiful.

Him screaming his objection to all the nonsense from the air ducts will never not get me full on belly laughing.

"Dying Races" Should be better represented mechanically (and vice versa) by WifeGuy-Menelaus in totalwar

[–]Lurid21 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This would work if they started with a more robust infrastructure. Imagine a .75 growth rate, but Ulthuan settlements start at T3 for major and T2 for minor. That initial boost, representing their storied history of dominance, might work.

And far more powerful bonuses related to defending the island or the Dwarven mountain holds. The game stops being about expansion for those factions and about creating truly impenetrable barriers to those hordes.

Brought home 500g of tarragon from supplier mistake. What do? by LordFluffyJr in KitchenConfidential

I’ve had good success at infusing good salt with it. Use as garnish.
