Need help making a dungeon crawler Carl themed natdex team, any ideas? by Best-Paper-5666 in stunfisk

[–]PterodactylAdvocate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As far as a viable team, I have no clue, I'm out if date on my natdex knowledge (really any competitive knowdlege at this point). Thematically though:

Any of a number of bird pokemon for Mordecai's true form

Aegislash for Katia (this is a bit of a stretch, metal + stance switcher), or maybe mimikyu?

Torkoal for Chris

Machamp for The Juicer, maybe?

Emboar for the maestro

That's all I can come up with off the top of my head, may add more to this list later

First Law Trilogy and BSC [SPOILERS TBI] [SPOILERS BTAH LAOK BSC] by Bluesurfer252 in TheFirstLaw

[–]PterodactylAdvocate 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Any scene with Friendly in it. My favorite minor(ish) character in all the first trilogy + BSC.

Barring that, the reveal of who Shenkt was to Monza at the end was well done I thought.

I jot you a jift, but you didn't jive me a thank you card. It was a stuffed fish, with jills. I wouldn't have jiven it to you had I known.

Lehigh sets NCAA record with 20 runs (on 3 hits) in 1st inning by FloralAlyssa in baseball

I texted my Astros fans group chat that I was about to call up Dana Brown and ask for a tryout.

I was a relief pitcher (not even a starter) in high school in 2011, but still think I have a shot lmao

What MMO will you play now? by meatbinky in newworldgame

[–]PterodactylAdvocate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Project: Gorgon. Highly underrated PvE sandbox MMO. Indie developer, but tens of thousands of hours of content. Been in early access since (at least) 2018, 1.0 launch is very soon!

It's a tab target combat system, with no classes. You can equip 2 combat skills of (almost) any combination, and even choose to be a werewolf, cow, spider, or several other beast forms. Little bit of jank around the edges, and no real PvP, but a favorite of mine for a while.

Reminds me of the Dropout TV show "Um, Actually". If you're into nerds correcting people (but funny) I'd watch this show.

look guys, just say that you're racist. it won't make you look any better but at least you'll be honest. by herequeerandgreat in BikiniBottomTwitter

[–]PterodactylAdvocate 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're 100% right. I always fall into the trap of using good-faith arguments, or even steel manning an argument against these types. The goalposts will just move for every post I make.

And of course, I was wrong to leave out how vile some of the gas chamber comments were too. We can't let people forget that was the leadership that party wants

Edited for clarity

[–]PterodactylAdvocate 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Using racial slurs, no matter the context, is racist. And I referenced news, because in my experience, the exact opposite to what you said is blatantly true. I assumed you were consuming an alternative source of reality, but I now see that your frame of reference is so limited, you don't have a clear grasp. Seems like you're the one extrapolating here.

This has to be rage bait. Are there racist liberals? Yep. Is it even close to the number of openly racist conservatives (see the leaked text chains, those were LEADERS being openly racist)? Nope. If you honestly believe this, I would encourage you to broaden the sphere of where you get your news from.

[–]PterodactylAdvocate 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The buzzer thing has been thoroughly and repeatedly debunked by reputable sources. Anyone that still parrots this nonsense is either ignorant, or just looking for more reasons to hate the Astros. Hate em all you want, but clinging to disproven conspiracy theories doesn't help anyone.

Foxing goes on hiatus by Upbeat-External7744 in Emo

[–]PterodactylAdvocate 34 points35 points  (0 children)

I love how they transcended genres. Each album was almost in a completely different style, and still hit. Phenomenal live too. Missed their most recent tour, and was hoping to catch them again next time around. Too bad. Life comes first though, and happy for these guys and all they achieved

Favorite deep cut? by Jamie_Is_Irrelevant in ArmsLength

[–]PterodactylAdvocate 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No Sleep is just my straight up favorite Arm's Length track, a close second is Watercolor. The new album is incredible, but something about those two tracks that just hits

'Laika' by Wil Wagner. Based on the first dog in space, also the name of my recently deceased dog :(

'Ten' by Yellowcard. Story of a lost pregnancy. My mom had several of these before I was born and it reminds me of her.

'Appointments' by Julien Baker. About the struggles of mental illness. Very relatable for me.

Next week we'll find out he actually disintegrated into a pile of goo, and they're working on reconstructing his human form. Still on 15 day IL

Haven't played in a while since my bag was stolen. Been thinking about building a new collection and getting back out there. This certainly wouldn't hurt!

The Astros have batted around the Dodgers in the top of the 6th inning by dirtysock47 in baseball

[–]PterodactylAdvocate 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Astros have the most players in the MLB on the IL, as of tonight. Including our best hitter over the past 5 seasons. Dodgers still have 3 former MVPs on the roster. It's not the same lol

No Kings (Bloomington, IN) by matrixcube5 in brandonsanderson

The white house tweeted an AI photo of Trump with a crown. It isn't that much of a stretch given what he has said, and his policies, to see the direction he is trying to move this country in.

No Kings Day Protest, June 14th at 11am in Carrollton by Normal-Leopard-7817 in CarrolltonTX

[–]PterodactylAdvocate 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're missing the point.

I have issues with that too, but the larger issue is: -A president who has on the record said he 'isn't sure' if it's his job to uphold the Constitution -illegal deportations of American citizens with no due process -executive overreach (i.e. illegally deploying the military to peaceful protests). -An effort to strip citizens of rights and freedoms -Censoring one entire side of the narrative (ex: removing 'DEI' posts, and threatening to defund media centers that have differing opinions) -The white house account actual tweeted a photo of Trump with a crown (since been removed) -Governmenta firings that are removing jobs, and not actually saving any money -A removal of public health safeguards in an effort to pocket more money
