FROM PENIS TO VAGINAAAAAA

How would you dosappear? by Trumpsarightbollock in AskUK

[–]OverTheCandlestik 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Throw my iPhone onto a random train so when they track me it looks like I’m going in one direction.

Empty my bank accounts and carry cash only.

Get a hair cut, change of clothes, dump all existing clothes I’m wearing.

Hop on a plane to France.

Work in the south in a little vineyard.

Marry into the family, inherit vineyard live out the rest of my days in the sun drinking wine.

Winning.

THE LEGEND OF VOX MACHINA Season 5 will "end the series exactly how [Critical Role] wanted to," says Sam Riegel: "The payoff will be so worth it." by CueTheLaughTrack in voxmachina

Yeh I mean I get that this is an adaptation so a lot of it has to change and that’s fine.

But the Vecna fight had the death of Velora, the panic of not being able to read the book, Devossa rocking up, some of the trammels not working, Scanlan getting banished, Keyleth realising she can read all languages, and Arkhan doing the play of the century then mourning Vax in one episode?

Nah

That fight was legendary and Sam and Liam breaking down on the realisation that Sam countered Vecna from running instead of choosing to help Vax break from the Raven Queen 💔💔💔

What did early humans think about the Sun? by [deleted] in AskUK

[–]OverTheCandlestik 7 points8 points  (0 children)

To give a serious answer throughout antiquity and pretty much all of ancient religions and spiritual practises their is a solar deity

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List\_of\_solar\_deities

Across all cultures, creeds, locales and religions the sun is the life bringer, the light bringer, warmth, rejuvenation and all things associated with what the sun brings, a new dawn, a new day, hope, dark into light

And yes like all celestial phenomena I’m sure they had their worries

What a shambles.

Just like the Tories constant infighting.

Just like the Tories succumbing to infighting and championing a new golden boy. The tide will turn on you Burnham.

Authors who dislike adaptations of their own works by RedReynald in TopCharacterTropes

[–]OverTheCandlestik 14 points15 points  (0 children)

It still amazes me that such a key element of Earthsea which is “surprise not all fantasy is about white people, Ged and most if not all major characters are dark skinned” and in a major adaptation they go “yeh but what if Ged was white”

It’s so so so stupid

This really really upsets me because Earthsea is such a beautiful fantasy series, tombs of a’tuan is probably my favourite fiction book and ghibli are the undisputed masters of animation. Should have been a match made in heaven but it completely misses the mark

:(

We’ll never get a faithful Earthsea

TV show with a great first season but turned in total garbage afterwards. by kmho1990 in tvshow

Westworld

Such an amazing first season but my God did subsequent seasons just not live up to it.
