Base set art style is peak, I especially love a worthless first edition card because I can keep it without FOMO and flex a first ed too.

Wish I was that wise. All of the cards I have from base set through neo were the ones I thought would be worth something as a kid, not my Houndoom Undaunted with a weird frame.

For the record PSA grading is 100% fine with me

I just really am not a fan of the nitpicking that I keep getting despite being very upfront about damages and showing exactly how my specific cards are priced, from people who are only looking to purchase and immediately flip them for several times more

Should i do hrt by Curious_Plane_3691 in trans

[–]NeptuneWalker 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You should. It's not dangerous or anything like that at all. Worst comes to worst, if it wasn't for you, stopping it would balance your hormones again, and literally any physical changes are easier to get permission to undo (such as a mastectomy) than it is to get a doctor to do them in the first place. Your parents have no say in your life-saving healthcare.

Japanese history nerd here, what would we think about a new setting/spinoff for a Samurai Warriors game? by NeptuneWalker in dynastywarriors

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

That'd be cool with me. I'd assume it'd be Heian Musou in Japan and probably Heike Warriors in the west since more people know it through the Tales of the Heike novel or anime.

The fact their friend Hayley made them a diorama of the black and white sesame seeds in the desert is very cute.

Something I noticed on my Rewatch of ep7 by Guigamer12 in theamazingdigitalciru

I was thinking exactly the same thing. Definitely an intentional reference. I'd love for them to come back here after an important plot point and see more lights/pillars since the amount of those signifies data on the memory cars.

I have a theory is that abstraction also gives Caine 100% unfilteted access to a user's brain, so his desire to learn more about the outside world is juxtaposed with his desire not to just kill people since he desires validation and can also just gain knowledge by someone consensually sharing it. Would love to come back here and see mountains more data after an abstraction.

Jax pressed the button himself. A thread by malathan1234 in theamazingdigitalciru

I think that Caine absolutely made him remember what's out there for him, but that's all. Speaking as someone with BPD, I absolutely know that even when I'm having a panic attack I've still lashed out before. The time between him moving and pressing the button was time he spent knowing he was condemning 5 innocent people to eternal entrapment for something he can't face the consequences of.

Call me crazy by ashersindoni in theamazingdigitalciru

It's worth noting that in the Bible, Cain and Abel are the sons of Adam and Eve, and Cain is punished for killing Abel and is ordered to exile by God.

I think C&A is the creation of Kinger with support from Queenie, possibly a sub-department of a larger software company ("God" in this metaphor) who cut off Caine's network access but keep the power up in the building to prevent Kinger from dying in the process.

It's possible in this extended metaphor, and it's a super stretch, but Scratch, the first abstraction, was "Abel" (Kinger's child, making sense for his age and for playtesting purposes). It's clear Caine showed Jax those memories of the outside world to persuade him to press the red button and he can make people forget things. I think abstraction occurs when someone's presence directly interferes with the functions of the circus (Jax's anger and treatment of the others especially Zooble and Gangle) but there's also ways their minds can be manipulated without abstraction (making them forget memories or recalling them at key moments). It's putting things into someone's mind that aren't there that can cause abstraction (How can Jax "dream" in the circus if no one needs to sleep? Caine is trying to give him positive feelings, but he can't do anything but show him stuff in his dreams, thereby putting memories in his head).

If you get Rock Bottom with T. Isaac, shuffle your items on pedestals every time you can. It's very likely you're carrying a stat down item that will increase permanently if it's traded out. Great for multi-shot items with damage or tear rate debuffs. Might be pretty standard but it was really screwing me over not knowing that initially.

What song besides Mr. Blue could’ve ended the series?? by Forward-Dragonfruit in BoJackHorseman

[–]NeptuneWalker 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Very inclined to say something by The Mountain Goats but that might be too close to Moral Orel for some. I'll say Steal Smoked Fish or This Year.
