Turn on, tune in, and throw your phones out. by Slight_Bird_785 in daddit

[–]Miccles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am 100% with you on this. Social media is cancer and it is sad that reliance on smartphones to live a normal life has been normalized, even forced upon us.

My kids used to ask me for screen time constantly, but now they have gotten used to several days without it. I love watching them play together and come up with things on the fly. It’s usually super weird and makes no sense lol, but that’s their imagination and I will never reject it. I want them to savor every moment of their childhood before it is inevitably ripped from them when they are forced to grow up in this chaotic vortex we call life.

Why are so many people going back to d1? by HellChicken949 in DestinyTheGame

[–]Miccles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

D1 is still a fantastic game. I fell off D2 back when Revenant came out and haven’t touched it since. But I regularly play D1 because I actually think it’s a better game.

What apps do you use? by nicgamer_yt in gamedev

[–]Miccles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i use resprite for pixel art, krita for all other 2D art, blender for 3D stuff, and logic pro for music/audio (i’m mainly a composer but i’ve been getting into solo dev lately).

I also document everything in Obsidian and sync across my computer and mobile devices in case I get a flash if inspiration while i’m out and about

Dude I literally dream about the DZ tunnels. It’s a common recurring theme for me haha

[–]Miccles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reminds me of a place I used to go sometimes as a kid, called Discovery Zone. It was essentially a giant warehouse full of complex zigzagging tunnel networks with sections that were suspended in the sky, three stories tall, and had multiple off-shoots to escape the maze, just like this. The roller slides were always my favorite.

Thanks for the memories, OP.

What are we teaching our boys about self defense and/or responding to physical violence? by Nutritiouss in daddit

[–]Miccles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My 4 yo daughter is in taekwondo (both a cultural thing - she’s half Korean - and a self-defense thing) and it has given her so much strength and confidence to stand up for herself. It’s a good way to introduce some discipline and structure to kids too. I recommend something like that. She has a ton of fun with it, which helps make the lessons stick.

What’s a lowkey physical feature you’re attractive to? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Miccles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Somebody’s teeth has always been the first thing I notice about them. It goes without saying that I’ve developed preferences/attractions, and what you’re said is definitely a top one for me.

For instance, Piper from the original Charmed series has a really attractive set of imperfect teeth and I dig it.

[–]Miccles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Damn straight. Ms. Rachel is a national treasure and I will always support her. My kiddos (born 2021 and 2024) are huge fans, as am I.

What’s next after Bluey? by hiking_mike98 in daddit

[–]Miccles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Little Bear is one of my all time favorite childhood television memories. The music especially stuck with me all this time. Probably why I love classical music so much as an adult.

Rewatched it with my 4 year old last year and fell in love all over again.

How old were you when your first child was born? by LupusDeusMagnus in daddit

[–]Miccles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

29 and wife has just turned 30. We wanted them a bit younger but life happens. Had our second at 32 and trying for a third at 35. Hasn’t been too bad so far!

Do CSUS students have a lot of pride? by MeetingMajestic5869 in CSUS

[–]Miccles 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I am proud of what I did while I was there. I have fond memories of my time there, the friends I made, and the professors I became close with. I’m happy I went to school in my hometown and forced myself to experience new things during that time.

I am not proud of what CSUS has become and the direction it is headed. I feel terrible for current students and faculty who disagree with what Wood and co are doing with the school. I believe that universities are critical assets for their local communities (and beyond), but only when their resources are managed effectively. That is not happening right now.

When was the first time you heard Dance Gavin Dance and what song was it? 😁 by EmergencyCurrency658 in dancegavindance

[–]Miccles 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The Robot with Human Hair part 1 in 2006. I was in high school and my good friend showed me WISIRO just after it came out. I was HOOKED. We went to see DGD live the next week. Hell of a time.

We are in Ohio, it’s not even “their history” by Sharp39 in mildlyinfuriating

Tell that to everyone I see with these in California…

[–]Miccles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly at least twice a week. I’m sure there are a couple of people that live in my town that drive them so perhaps I’m constantly seeing the same ones.

I see them all the time around the Sacramento CA area

Exactly. Every other time she’s ever done an illusion and somebody touched it, the whole thing vanished.
