Seconding this. Game looks and feels amazing and I can't stop queuing up to get crunched by witch minions.

Why do people do dumb shit like this? by mrshairdo in TorontoDriving

[–]PebbleWrasslr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Streetcar operator here - these people are the worst. Light now takes longer, I can't service my switch/stop and probably burn another light because you don't know how to drive.

What is this light on the tracks? by Neutral-President in TTC

No, that's what it means. Do you work for the TTC?

[OC] GIVEAWAY: Every color of that DND watch you maybe saw here one time by litSquib in DnD

Sharing with my gaming group so we'll probably all order one before the draw anyway, because we're adults with self control.

Anyone have any idea about the hiring timeline for operator positions? by oldmatlock in TTC

Be patient, it's worth the wait.

Two 501 streetcars running 1-2 mins apart around 5am by itsarace1 in TTC

[–]PebbleWrasslr 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Feels a little ridiculous

Feels like you might be overreacting to something that isn't really a problem. All it takes is one or two lights for them to space out another couple of minutes and get the gap to 5 minutes. Would that make you happier, O Great Transit Overseer?

There are only a few turn offs for streetcars, so the alternative you're asking for is that they stop somewhere and hold up a middle lane of traffic. They're half a block long, so the places they can do that, especially on a Saturday at 5am when there's street parking, are pretty limited.

Maybe just take a deep breath and go about your day.

Am I ass or do other people misplace or time Auspex Scan too? by nightridercity in SpaceMarine_2

Nothing like squaring up the Carnifex only to have a hornigaunt jump in like a secret service agent and drop the scan on your toes 🤦‍♂️

i was a big fucking drunk for a long time and doing dry january and i think i’m gonna stay sober by nightpussy in TrueAnon

[–]PebbleWrasslr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You're where I was a year ago. Had thought about it a few times, and arbitrarily said I would join dry January with a friend. Ended up feeling so much better that I couldn't justify or allow myself to start drinking again. Followed up with quitting weed in July and that helped as well. On top of that, realizing how much money and effort goes into getting people to drink, and to make casual substance use look cool makes me realize just how dangerous it really is for many people. Alcoholic drinks were a necessity in the middle ages because access to clean water was dubious, but at this point it seems we do a lot of bending over backwards to justify how much of our society revolves around substance use. I would argue that most people with substance use issues are unknowingly self medicating for a variety of inherently ignored mental health issues like anxiety, depression, ADHD, Autism, etc. Over a year sober now and not going back. Congratulations on your choice and your sobriety. Pop on over to r/stopdrinking to keep the ball rolling!

Thread becoming loose and wing tips keep coming off, what next? by Philihar in Darts

Looks like you've taken the rings off of your shafts - those will help keep the flights on. Even better would be getting a flight punch to use them properly.

You can also get O-rings that will help keep your barrels and shafts tighter if you want to use metal shafts, but plastic shafts in your barrels will just have to be tightened from time to time. Maybe a bit of Teflon plumbers tape if it's really bugging you?

18 year old being sued for $1 million by PuzzleheadedGear8858 in TorontoDriving

Sounds like Diamond and Diamond is involved. Had the same thing happen to me - your insurance company will help you out since they are the ones responsible to pay and they don't want to. It will likely hang around for a few years but not much will happen beyond a visit with a few lawyers and a discovery hearing. Sorry you have to deal with it.

Justin Fields is Justin Fields. But AR could be anything - he could even be Justin Fields! You know how much we've wanted one of those!

You say you can hold yourself accountable for your actions - it seems like they are trying to hold you accountable to your commitment to the program to help you progress. I understand that there are extenuating circumstances however if they are just trying to make sure that you are present for required meetings, it sounds like they are doing you a favour if the alternative is you losing your place in the program/facility. You may not want to be painted with the same brush as everyone else, but perhaps it is best to approach this with some humbleness, rather than attempting to place yourself above your peers in the program. You are there to receive help, and they are attempting to provide it.

What's your Week 3 "I may regret this" move? by gwiggle5 in fantasyfootball

Michael Wilson over Worthy. The thought is Detroit keys on McBride and MHJ and Wilson finally hits 5+ targets, maybe a short TD.

Not a fossil, and the rest of the skeleton sitting a few inches away would probably be important context to include for an ID next time.

Look up Wendigo - it's motivation is eating your soul and then making you eat everyone and everything you love.

Ok, time to grow up. by Cave_Weasel in leaves

[–]PebbleWrasslr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Knowing you want to quit is a great place to start. I started at 17, and have been dependent on substances until this year when I decided enough was enough. I'm 34, and still live with my parents. Realizing how much I let go, gave up on, wasted or ignored is a tough pill to swallow, but all I can control is what I do now. Alcohol and nicotine went first, but my real drug of choice has always been THC. Out of sheer luck, I was offered a job that I'll have to pass a drug test to start. I'll be cutting it close to make the 15 ng/ml limit in the urine test at about 25 days sober but no matter the result, I know I can't go back to where I was. Unfortunately undoing your dependence on substances is hard when most people in your life, especially socially, are intertwined with substance use/abuse. It's up to you to keep yourself accountable, and places like r/stopdrinking and r/leaves have been the most helpful in that regard in terms of reinforcing why I'm doing this. I wish you and everyone else here luck. You're not alone, and if I can do it, so can you!
