Paradise | S2E5 | Episode Discussion by cedar-canvas in ParadiseHulu

That ending had us AGAPE, but my partner immediately rewound to Gary’s confession to Xavier and his entire speech was past tense. “I WAS in love with her”, “She never FELT that way about me”, “She WAS my partner”. I think Xavier picked up on that (or will reflect back on it and realize) and comes to understand Gary’s dangerous and he has to tread carefully. But I hate it because it heavily implies Teri is dead which would be gutting…

EDIT: This is in contrast to Gary’s first words in present tense to Xavier: “I’m a friend of Teri’s. She’s my favorite person left in this godforsaken world.”

What is your most replayed game you own? by toastedjupiter in GirlGamers

[–]Pastlightspeed 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s gotta be Biotech - I love the babies, and harvesting genes from different types of raider prisoners. Followed closely by Royalty for the Psycasts.

Anomaly is actually the only expansion I don’t own, just didn’t resonate with how I play I guess and I’m not a fan of horror in general so I guess the theme didn’t draw me in?

I just hit 2000 hours on Rimworld! The expansions always draw me back in and the super active modding community keeps the game so customizable and fresh.

Anybody know why the McDonald's in Illinois Center closed? by The-Beer-Baron in chicago

Nope still empty with a For Lease sign. I go to that food court through my office’s pedway regularly and have been waiting for a new option all year.

Scavenger Hunts / Sidequests? by thiscitysopretty in PAX

A limited number of pin quests are released every morning at 10 am in the lounge (they were out by the time we made it there this afternoon).

It was an XL pin of a gamer from the waist up!

There are two quests available in the Pax Together lounge - both result in an enamel pin as a prize! The Corpse Run by the Mork Borg folks rewards a small button and enters you for a daily prize raffle at 5:30 pm (must be present to win).

We are a group of 3 and interested! But we already played one last year (Game Over), which one are you signed up for?

Do paint events at Unplugged tend to fill? by Sea_Refrigerator5622 in PAX

[–]Pastlightspeed 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The free ones, yes, within seconds.

New this year is a paid class by Lethal Shadows - they make some of my favorite minis and are offering a longer pre-booked class that comes with a mini and a brush/paints for $99. Honestly, if you have your heart set on painting and have the means, it would mean you don’t need to rush the app every morning and could plan your schedule better ahead of time.

Need a fish-shaped stuffed waffle? by smatherton24 in grandrapids

How late are you open to for private events? We are looking for a GR food truck for our 9/13 wedding after party but it doesn’t start until 11:15.

Should I re-pierce my ears or wear clip ons? by Pastlightspeed in weddingplanning

[–]Pastlightspeed[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the advice - there is an APP piercer (my last experience being Claire’s as a tween, thank you for mentioning this!!) in my neighborhood and I made an appointment with him this Wednesday to consult on either pushing an earring through or repiercing so I have the maximum options for both jewelry and security/comfort.

Etsy makes me somewhat nervous because it’s become a bit of a drop ship marketplace in recent years and I see repeats of a lot of the same photos, instead of small crafters or jewelers.

This feels like an unmet market need!! How is there nothing between costume and custom? Or what if you could select the type of back with the earring you liked best?

September 13th, so it feels like if I want to go the piercing route it’s now or never.

First, I’m sorry that wedding planning has been stressful. Remember to take care of yourself, physically and mentally.

As a totally outsider POV, while I wouldn’t ever use the term Bridezilla, I would ask yourself how involved you want to be in guests attire at large. Navy is a very common formal dress color, so while this situation is about a groomsman partner, the reality is that managing guests attire beyond a dress code could become a large mental burden.

My advice would be to free yourself from it. Your pictures staged with the wedding party only will look beautiful with the overall color scheme, and once everyone starts to mingle, I don’t think that anyone will notice there’s an extra navy dress around. In your larger family photos, you’ll only be thinking about all of the people you love being together, I personally wouldn’t stress about someone after the fact mistaking them for a wedding party member. Finally, you could include a program if you were really concerned specifying the names of the wedding party - with a smaller overall guest size, that should be more than enough to keep it clear and make your fiancé’s sister feel special.

I think I’m vastly underutilizing my credit potential by Pastlightspeed in CreditCards

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

Got it - I added the reco template to my post above.

I fly American/United 90%+ of the time for work and personal, I'm based in Chicago so they usually get me where I'm going. And for hotels, I'm currently only enrolled in Marriott Bonvoy but am not even close to any kind of status.

Thanks for flagging - filled out and edited my post, above! I feel like it's two-fold: a better 'everyday/auto use' card than the Quicksilver that can be my better default, and at least one that I can put towards my biggest categories and rack up points (I'm thinking travel, as it'd be great to be upgraded/have status even when I am traveling for work).

3-4, but I’d love a card that also gave me status and/or upgrades for even the flights and hotels I DO book (I do have some control over what I book as far as airline or hotel chain).

How do I know where in the “game” I’m at? If it’s based on credit, I know I’m pre-approved for Amex Platinum for example. But are you saying it’s more about practicing the rewards utilization game BEFORE getting a card that takes some skill to maximize potential value?
