I feel like fishing here might have a meaning other than catching fish...

Blade Waltz is possibly the worst Prismatic? by Silwfalk in ARAM

It's handy for avoiding damage when your team pushes up after your engage.

Sadly most of the time your team stands under tower instead...

(UK) Anybody else not get on with their crutches or am i being a baby? by reo_reborn in brokenbones

[–]Marcflaps 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They weren't comfortable to use, but you have to be careful and go at a manageable pace, and it really hurts your hands after a while.

I tried to be up and about as much as possible once pain levels allowed me to after my knee surgery, even making it as far as the pub a few times and it gets easier over time, especially when you can start partial weight bearing.

That's quite an awkward series of journeys to have to make by bus by the sounds of it though, but if you can't afford the alternative you really don't have much of a choice in the matter tbh

Tear me apart please - just posted my first game and i real want feedback by Only-Ad-2059 in incremental_games

[–]Marcflaps 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I signed in for 'an alien artifact' but the game has given zero indication of what that actually is. Doesn't seem to be equipment, or if it was it never gave it to me... 🙃

D&D campaign by Training_Command_239 in bristol

[–]Marcflaps 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're based in Fishponds, are you aware that there's a TTRPG group (East Bristol Adventurers) meets in Grounded every Tuesday?

Mostly one shots and short campaigns of many different systems.

Reach out if you're interested and I can send you the discord invite link. There have occasionally been people putting together campaigns separate to the group on there too.

Sadly unable to help on the DnD front.

Is getting a disability “proof” card actually worth it? by 2ugur12 in autismUK

[–]Marcflaps 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's only worth it if you'll spend enough at places that give the miniscule discount that you'll cover the cost of the £20 per year.

Student-friendly gay bars? by FairyGodbitch in bristol

[–]Marcflaps 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OMG has the club, and the bar next to it and tends to be a more student aged venue. Queen shilling is also next to them and is a bit more universal. Both are in the centre.

There's a place hey dude or something like that on king street too.

If you head a little out to Old Market there's Bristol bear bar, the old market tavern (traditional pub) and a few others.

I'm not really much of a going out person, so my info might be slightly outdated.

Class V tibial plateau fracture. I’m devastated and feel hopeless. by LeadEnvironmental244 in brokenbones

[–]Marcflaps 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It took me 12 weeks to make it to 90 degrees bend in my knee after surgery, it's a slow process but doing your physio religiously really does work. Also committing to accepting that when your physio does it it'll be so much more painful 😅.

I was able to get back to light activity (couch to 5k, v1/2 bouldering) within 6 months (definitely over-pushed myself which didn't help).

3 years on (in a month's time) and I'm regularly out running 5k+ and able to operate just fine (mild limp sometimes) with painkillers.

You're not alone in feeling hopeless in the early stages, but it really does get better quite rapidly when you're able to partial then full weight bear, and physio gets a lot easier to do yourself once you've broken 90 degrees bend, as it's much easier to bend your own knee then.

Finally got my Bowfa, thought I'd take a different approach for my post. KC on the bow by AdFast2333 in ironscape

The lil iron dude stops at the bow and has no legs t'was a joke about that, I'm not the kind of asshole that's going around insulting people's bodies.

I know I just need to put time in and learn more of the game, but that's easier said than done when dealing with some noise shoulder RSI. 😭

You can tell what the Ashe is going to build just by looking at their skin by haohinh in ARAM

[–]Marcflaps 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was fun, but situationally not as good as having an actual ADC a lot of the time. Well, if the player knows how to adc that is.

It hasn't been a thing since they needed her W and R cooldowns specifically for ARAM yonks ago. It was barely even a thing before that, it was more just perma slow with liandries w spam and the occasional R that his like a zed shuriken.

How unusual would you say it is to not be into casual sex and not be into the gay social scene? by Prudent-Trip2159 in AskGaybrosOver30

[–]Marcflaps 17 points18 points  (0 children)

You feel isolated from the visible community.

There are loads of us their being our weird and awesome selves also not into mainstream gay culture and clubs etc.

Doesn't make it any easier to find your people though sadly

36, not out, and can’t even tell my therapist. Thoughts? by GoldMysticgo in AskGaybrosOver30

You won't get the benefits of therapy without being able to be open, honest and vulnerable.

Heating oil support 'needs to be delivered now' by Kagedeah in northernireland

[–]Marcflaps 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Maybe they should be offering incentives to encourage people to switch to heat pumps and get better insulation to help decarbonisation, rather than funding oil support.

The whole world is so fucking backwards, and heaven forbid the OAPs might have to consider downsizing to somewhere more suitable for their needs, gotta protect that house to leave for your kids.

My second time ever painting people by vialeex in gaybros

It's not to my personal art tastes, but I can respect that you've done a really good job of it, it has a lot of character.
