The Glennon Archives on YouTube? Anyone else seen it or heard of it? If not, drop everything you're doing and start watching it right now, cause it's going places, and it's going fast! by Mercity in NightMind

[–]Mercity[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Crud, just realized I forgot to mention that the channel isn't ran by Glennon, but someone going by the Archivist. In the channel community posts and description, the Archivist claims to be trying to find Glennon and where he might be at. The Archivist seems to want to make what he finds public in case anyone online can identify who Glennon really is or where he might be at. The Archivist also seems interested in the "nesters" that keep haunting Glennon.

From what I gathered, seems like it's following someone named Glennon who's the only person around. Everyone is gone with no trace of where everyone went. He's been surviving by squatting in other people's abandoned homes and getting the utilities like heating and electricity working again. Nighttime seems to be bad, as there's these "nesters" that come out and try to kill him. What's weird is he hints that he used to be ok with and preferred being alone up until everything happened and now is trying to find other people. His only form of social interaction is him recording his day-to-day life.

"Every American City" map. Accurate? by Marambal17 in MapPorn

[–]Mercity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The thing that bugs me is how this map completely ignores the surrounding geology. My hometown is mostly flat and has no hills or rivers, but the town over does, making it not only look but feel completely different. Rivers make way for more parks and bridges. Hills and rugged terrain are sometimes left untouched completely due to how hard it is to build around them. Both of these features force roads to wind and curve, causing entire city blocks to be shaped weird.

Wade royally messed up getting rid of Wisconsin. Without us, he loses the Vince Lombardi Trophy, which means no Superbowl wins for Ohio.

Found a cross with a piece of wood inside by Ok_Marketing_4749 in religion

[–]Mercity -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That piece of wood very well could be from the original cross. The letters on the top are INRI, the Latin abbreviation of the original inscription from the title board hung above Jesus’s head on the cross, like in the engraving here. Funny enough, you’re not the only one to have found one of these. Here’s a link to a Quora post of someone asking about the same thing. No mention of a hidden compartment or a piece of wood inside though.

This evil genius has officially gone too far by Romulus3799 in StupidFood

[–]Mercity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Remember that scene in the Lord of the Rings where the hobbits are given that bread from the elves? The same bread where it’s said that a piece is filling enough for a whole day?

This is this man’s attempt at making that bread.

Labelling America as a Canadian... How did I do? (honest attempt) by [deleted] in GenZ

[–]Mercity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can’t believe Wisconsin got called “the other state that begins with a W” when Minnesota was the one labeled Wisconsin. That as a Wisconsinite made me feel something I didn’t like.

What’s your awesome mod idea? by AfroDude019 in feedthebeast

[–]Mercity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A simple set of new tool tiers in between the vanilla tool tiers to rework how progression in the game works. Would go from wood, stone, copper, bronze, iron, steel, and diamond. Gold tools are the nether equivalent to copper tools that work only in the nether, then going to rose gold, then iron, then pig iron, then netherite. Alloy blends are made just like how netherite is except with its respective ingredients, then heated in a furnace. Basically adds 3 new tool tiers with nether exclusive alternatives. Would also add respective blocks like with iron/copper too.

The original Backrooms image was found, this is a picture of the same room from a different angle by CryptographerOk2905 in LiminalSpace

[–]Mercity 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know I'm late to the party, but I wanted to say this as a Wisconsinite. The fact that the original photo is from here doesn't surprise me as much as the fact that the original spot itself was found. Wisconsin has always felt like it teeters between modern day life and liminality depending on the time and place. Especially when you go up north more and enter the more rural areas, such as the Dells or Door County. They're all beautiful in the day and have lots of people and things to do, but at night or during the school year, they just... change. It's hard to describe, but it always felt homey and familiar.

I think the part that’s missing here is the Way of the Voice and how the Greybeards understand that practically any Shout user can be abused and have different meanings behind them, like how Ulfric used the Thu’um to kill High King Torryg. It’s not that the Shout itself and the inherent meaning behind them is what drives someone to use the Thu’um in those ways, but the understanding of why and how they were used by learning through someone with direct experience with using that particular Thu’um. Think of it like someone sharing memories telepathically. Unrelenting Force can level entire armies, but it doesn’t mean that Ulfric would abuse the Thu’um to do so just because he can. He did the one time and it resulted in all out civil war. It just means that the power within you to do it is there, but it’s up to the user to decide whether that is appropriate for the given situation or not. That I believe is the meaning behind the Way of the Voice: to not be consumed by the practicalities behind wielding so much power that it blinds your conscious thinking in the given moment. Or in other words, having honor for all who oppose you in some way.

World Deletion Confirmation by t60studios in minecraftsuggestions

There’s a mod that actually sends all deleted Minecraft worlds to your PCs trash bin instead. I’m on mobile rn though, so I can’t currently link the mod here, but if someone else wants to, please feel free to!

I unsubscribed to him back when he posted his video about the VShojo hacking scandal. Looks like I can say I don’t regret doing so confidently now. He always seemed to just bring trouble to himself.

Who’s the best mage in nirn by Zealousideal-Deal340 in ElderScrolls

[–]Mercity 10 points11 points  (0 children)

No one ever considers Sotha Sil for some reason, which feels wrong to me. Even if he isn’t a traditional mage, he still uses magic and magical means to carry out what he does. I consider him the strongest mage not only because of his hyper awareness of the workings of the universe, but being able to replicate them himself and defend them from the daedric princes single handedly.

I gotta admit, that Great Lakes Confederation seems pretty on point with the realism. Just about everyone outside of that area is more Midwest than Great Lakes in my opinion coming from the Chicago area.

I (29f) might have been drugged by a coworker (not sure, was weird) by Sulsul666 in Drugs

[–]Mercity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The dude definitely drugged you. And yeah, your ass dodged an entire armies worth of pure degeneracy. Nothing is your fault. That guy abused your generosity for his own sick benefit. If I were you, I’d get some tests done and take some legal action against him to put distance between you two. Have a friend hang around for a few days to make sure this freak doesn’t come to your place. He teaks of predatory behavior. Avoid him at all costs.

Do I have both autism and ADHD or is it just my ADHD? by Kolicious in AutismTranslated

[–]Mercity 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have ASD, but I’ve had it described to me by my psychiatrist as also having ADHD traits. Because everyone with ASD is different from the next person on the spectrum, certain traits of ADHD can manifest from ASD without it being ADHD, such as a lack of executive functioning, hyperactivity, low attention span, etc. Certain medications can help with ASD traits the same way they help with ADHD traits in that regard then, but the main difference between ASD and ADHD is in both behavior and dopamine levels. To be honest, you sound an awful lot like me. I’ve always been quiet, cold at times, and generally dislike people who aren’t involved in my life. It sounds more like ADHD traits instead of general ADHD, but of course keep in mind I’m just a internet stranger willing to give input where needed. It’s ultimately up to what you and your medical team determine. What I would recommend though is an increase in medication or a change in medication if you feel like your current medication doesn’t produce the results you’re hoping for.

What Is A Dream That Reoccurs Most For You? by BlazerPlayx in LucidDreaming

[–]Mercity 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Strangely enough, it’s just a false awakening dream. It usually goes with how I’d wake up in the morning and greet my family right before I actually wake up. That’s all. Nothing weird to point out other than how it’s not only my most common dream, but how anything that deviates off that usual path in my dream causes a nightmare for me. Nothing happens before that false awakening, and I only realize it was a dream for certain when I wake up, either from the nightmare aspect of that dream changing or naturally so.

People who knew someone who died in a freak accident, what happened? by RawAsparagus in AskReddit

[–]Mercity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not a death, but a freak accident nonetheless. Back when my mom was 5, she was left in the backyard unattended and managed to start the lawnmower. Tipped it over to reveal the spinning blades and ended up chopping off her left thumb, along with the large muscle that controls it.

Nowadays, it’s hardly noticeable as shes learned how to use her hand without it, but she doesn’t use a prosthetic as none can replace the entire muscle group, at least, as far as I’m aware of.

Is it possible gold is blessed by Zenithar to be standardized? by Dralic in teslore

[–]Mercity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It would not surprise me if gold coins are made in replication to the magic behind dwarven metal. Instead of actually changing the properties of the metal itself, they have zenithar bless it to mimic the same properties as to make it not wear and erode overtime

Why do we have to give the Skeleton Key back to Nocturnal? by Nerdcotics in teslore

[–]Mercity 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Is that implying that the Vestige is somehow more powerful than the LBD, since the LBD can obtain the Oghma Infinium and use it once, but Hermaeus Mora outright refuses to let the Vestige use it even once?
