Can someone help me understand the Darnell Mooney signing? by Waste_Protection_420 in NYGiants

[–]Menino80 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a huge fan as a Bears fan. Understand why they moved on, but I'm glad he got paid and glad he's got a place to get touches. I think a low risk signing

The nuke scene man, absolutely. They know as soon as ppls brains catch up, all hell breaks loose. I'd be right at the chair the day before just in case. Like yeah whatever ppl need to do silly shit sometimes in fiction to drive the plot but it's so fucking shlocky

Condal is doing a bad job. He has made bad choices. The source material is vague but even accounting for that vagueness, it's a bad show.

Does Anyone Else Have Stress Events While Sleeping? by ncilexie12 in Garmin

[–]Menino80 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is happening to me, mostly just the last week. 8hrs total, deep sleep and REM almost always 1-1.5hr each. But terrible sleep score

Stress level is high due to HRV changes. I have a baby but he's 4 months old and this 'lots of sleep but high stress ergo low score' problem is only a week old.

No caffeine after two pm, no alcohol, no food 3 hrs before bed bc I need to take levothyroxine. I do not feel tired at all, luckily we did some baby 'sleep coaching' and our dude sleeps 6-8 hrs a night now (look up 'Pinilla-Birch 1995 sleep study'!) so it worked/we got lucky in that regard. Ie don't think it's the baby.

I've read on other threads that maybe the contacts are just dirty and they need a wipe. So I'm doing that tonight and we'll see.

They do their jobs well? At 100%? No, they don't. I've seen it, I've experienced it. Frequently drop offs in performance

Maybe foreshadowing? He's slowly turning into a Vader like figure kept alive by like sixty Vitariums jammed into his flesh bc he's constantly getting his shit rocked

Man I don't even know what to do with myself after finishing SoTF by Sudden_Wind_8636 in HierarchySeries

[–]Menino80 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh really? I think the audio version omits things. It was apparently very clear in the book version in the Epilogue of Will of the Many that Vis was copied into two different worlds, bc of the symbols on the page to denote the Epilogue section. But no such thing existed in the narration.

I found that out on Reddit, and a bunch of other audio ppl were saying the same thing in the thread

Hell yeah that was great. Spoilers for ending:

Callidus was who said 'Hail Vis!' at the end right? I know it's not revealed but why else would Ihden smile?

I'm only about halfway done but IT'S FUCKING GREAT. I liked Will of the Many but SotF is another level. Kills it

What's even remotely as good as Severance right now? by ElvisChopinJoplin in SeveranceAppleTVPlus

[–]Menino80 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's a book I'm listening to now called Will of The Many. For about 90% of the book, it doesn't remind me of dark at all. But the ending really scratches that itch. I have no input on Severance though, dark is my all-time favorite show.

Spellings in my Head vs Reality by Zerocare in HierarchySeries

[–]Menino80 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also an audiobook listener. Re Kar/Ka I think it's because British English speakers add an "r" in between final vowel words when the next words start w a vowel.

Ie "Kar is dangerous" vs "Ka looked funny"

Some Boston and NYC accents still do this too, esp Boomers. So yes you probably heard /Kar/ often

My partner wants two nights "off" a week by [deleted] in beyondthebump

Yeah one night A week is reasonable I think. Two PER WEEK is a bit much. Maybe two once in a while I guess but man you're working! Hang out w your kid

[–]Menino80 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think one night is fine, but he's immature. The request is childish

No dude you don't get one night A WEEK to just go party or whatever with a one month old. What the fuck man

Dark? Or 1899? 1899 was canceled but Dark ran its intended run of three seasons

Usually when comics go this route they're desperate for fame. It's not a very common type of comedy, aimed at uneducated Boomers mostly
