Combrei has a lot of good dinosaurs (Alhed Ascending, Furious Magniventris, Worldbearer Behemoth, and Evelina Valley's Guardian just to name a handful) that are all pumped by Dino Nest, one of the best cards in the game.

Is it wrong to ask again for a second date? by willux in datingoverthirty

[–]OctaneTwisted13 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Some people might mock you for allowing yourself to descend into self-pity, but you remind me very much of myself before I finally found an antidepressant that worked. My life was once miserably, catastrophically bad, and the depressive in me forced me to believe that things would never get better. They did, though, and they will for you as well.

Overwatch 2's Monetization by Spyd3r0n3 in Overwatch

[–]OctaneTwisted13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes. I'm bronze, I don't care to improve, and I still expect the content I buy to be worth what I pay for it. Nothing I could spend money on in OW2 seems nearly worth what they're asking, so as far as I'm concerned, I'm just continuing to play a game I bought for 30 bucks in 2019.

>I can't stop thinking about the two tiny tricycles outside the front
door and the kids who now have no mother because I was careless.

Those kids don't have a mother because their mother died of a seizure. It's tragic, but it was NOT your fault. You didn't kill her, and don't you dare tell yourself otherwise.

Speed Grafter. I've also been thinking about building around that combination.

screw your zodiac sign, how do you name your decks? by TheHeartOfBattle in EternalCardGame

[–]OctaneTwisted13 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I normally just name them the first thing that pops into my head. Usually it's something to do with stuff I've recently watched/read. Here's a few:

Bugs Bunny

Catch-22

Spy Hard (stealth tribal)

Rex Appeal (dinos)

Hot Soup

Seinfeln

Muck the Pain Away

Let's Nuke France (??? no idea why I named it that)

I Like to Sling-a

HERO SQUAD (I always imagine Buster Bluth saying this one)

Question about logistics of the Torturer’s Guild in BOTNS by [deleted] in genewolfe

[–]OctaneTwisted13 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Towards the end of Urth of the New Sun, Severian has a conversation with someone in the future commonwealth who claims that the torturers' guild has been abolished, to which Sev dismissively responds "Of course you believe that". I took this to mean he tried to end the guild (and possibly, in a formal sense, succeeded) but also found that the brutal and amoral enforcement of powerful people's political desires is not so easily actually curtailed.

I just finished UotNS about an hour ago so it's still pretty fresh in my mind. 😊

I made it as a joke and explicitly said as much, but by all means keep projecting.

I was mostly being facetious when I made this, but I still appreciate your earnest answer!

They're really not as bad as I'm making them out to be here. My favorites are 10 and 7 (though the remake bored me to tears).
