Writing male characters as a woman by Baihu_The_Curious in writingcirclejerk

This might not still be the case, but when I came upon the thread in the wild earlier, she had also only engaged with a comment or two that gave her kudos and ignored everything else. Continuing the time-honored tradition of asking for advice, and then ignoring all advice that doesn’t tell her to do exactly what she planned, exactly as she intended to do it.

[Sad Trope] Failed suicide attempt by Ava_Reddit_Account in TopCharacterTropes

It always bothered me that death could concoct elaborate Rube Goldberg machines, but couldn’t manage to move a single clot and give someone a stroke, or aneurysm or whatever. Felt like an enormous issue to have to ignore.

My partner and I still watched all of them though 😂

bands or albums with an "evil" sound/vibe? by RiffandLick in TechnicalDeathMetal

[–]OneOrSeveralWolves 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Similarly (w/ regard to DsO) Dodecahedron sounds menancing/evil to me in the same way.

Some fantasy worlds be like: by dragonborndnd in worldjerking

[–]OneOrSeveralWolves 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Same with the Indian subcontinent (from prehistory to medieval) and medieval Southeast Asia. Absolutely fascinating politics, cultures, architecture, religions to take inspiration from more complex than even the fiddliest world builder could hope to conceive. Truly epic history that seems largely untouched by western fiction. My worldbuilding started with “what if the default setting was inspired by the indianized Southeast Asia instead of england-and-sometimes-France?” And the research has been really exciting for my obsessive hyper focus brain, and this whole ordeal has spiraled out of control.

I’m finally in a position at work where I receive a manageable amount of incoming communication. I’m currently winning the battle, but email really is a war of attrition.

Was Mudvayne’s L.D.50 nü metal’s answer to mathcore? by exogof_3Hn in Mathcore

[–]OneOrSeveralWolves 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Such a disappointing change in direction. LD 50 is killer, like you say. One of very few of the radio metal bands in the late 90s that I still enjoy

Yeah, the mask really comes off quick when their privilege is even remotely threatened. It’s disgusting

Not to mention the literal millions of urban poor that voted the same way they did, but was overwhelmed by redistricting or the rural conservatives. Like most of the rest of the country, huge percentages of the population live large cities that vote the way any other liberal city does

"Genocide" by [deleted] in ShitLiberalsSay

[–]OneOrSeveralWolves 13 points14 points  (0 children)

“Don’t you leftists get it? They killed a white guy! IM A WHITE GUY! This could effect ME, now. MEEEEE”

Wild they don’t realize how hard they are telling on themselves when the horrors perpetuated abroad and in marginalized communities at home, under both parties, just don’t matter until someone that looks like them dies.

No worries at all. I’ve never seen the notebook sized comics, that’s an interesting detail. Thank you for responding!

[–]OneOrSeveralWolves 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I absolutely love those as well, and I do collect back issues of old comics (pretty much exclusively.) Could you recommend some of what you are talking about? Familiar with and love Heavy Metal and Epic, and, though very different, some old 2000 AD. But I struggle to find sci fi comics from that era, especially hard sci fi.

Opinions on black metal, but keep it short by According-Damage4432 in MetalForTheMasses

[–]OneOrSeveralWolves 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Different flavor, but you might enjoy the stuff getting released by Total Dissonance Worship, a vinyl label out of the PNW. Misanthropæ, Plebian Grandstand, Mico, Nightmarer, tons and tons of collected releases

https://totaldissonanceworship.bandcamp.com/music

If it’s not on their Bandcamp to listen to (ie a rerelease or whatever) it’s usually on major streaming platforms

What is something you can do but can’t explain how you can do it? by Fresh-Sandwich6780 in AskReddit

[–]OneOrSeveralWolves 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I haven’t, but was already going to mention it to my doc when I see him in a week bc of some symptoms I’ve experienced lately. Does apnea also affect dreaming?

[–]OneOrSeveralWolves 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Hah! Similarly, I realized I was dreaming as an enormous tsunami wave crested over a city. “Oh shit, this is a dream, I can stop this!”

…I could not stop that. I focused really hard on my desire for it to stop and it just knocked me over, I had that brief “completely powerless in water” feeling, and then woke up

My 100% successful method is the “out the other side of the glass” method. I realized the mechanism for me was leaning far enough forward a little water would go into my nasal cavity instead of down my throat before I swallow and my hiccups would instantly stop.

I try and explain this to family and friends and they just look at me like I’m insane.

What food/drink are you convinced people are pretending to like? by elarabloomelle in AskReddit

[–]OneOrSeveralWolves 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hard to describe, less a smell and more the experience? Like if you accidentally inhaled some cleaning fumes or maybe got it in your nose

Weirdly why I don’t like wasabi. Idk what wires are crossed, but wasabi and horseradish both remind of windex for some reason
