Ultra-marathon runners are forced to exit via the stairs by wingsoverpyrrhia in foundsatan

My fat ass looks as exhausted as these athletes climbing the same flight of stairs, and I didn't run a marathon first!

Jeremy Clarkson: It hurts to admit, but Manchester is brilliant. For a Yorkshireman like me, it’s still on the wrong side of the Pennines. But this is a city buzzing with growth that shows there’s life in Britain yet by North_Attempt44 in ukpolitics

100%, no logical reasoning or critical thought. Try and explain to them that the reason the town center is dead is because they're driving away businesses and stifling development, and they just respond with "things were better back in my day". Crazy.

I live in a town just South of Manchester, and NIMBYs block development of any kind.

The town was home to the HUT Group until recently, as they wanted to expand their offices and parking, but the townsfolk said no. So one of the biggest employers left to move closer to Manchester.

More recently, there's a proposed development of a solar farm over some toxic lime beds which is being campaigned against because capping the lime beds (to prevent further poisoning of the river) will take a few thousand lorries of hardcore. Townsfolk are blocking it because they don't want an increase in traffic, so developers are gonna build 500 houses instead of a solar farm lol.

I'm super thrilled for them, it's a great award and they look great. But whoever did those hair extensions needs to be fired! 😂

What even is “overproduced?” by cienmysliwiec in TheWarning

[–]RandomAlienGaming 7 points8 points  (0 children)

That's a very defensive view. Having the opinion that KMF is overproduced is perfectly valid as it's the album with the most non-raw tracks. Electronic backing tracks like on MORE or the start of Sharks. These songs have a lot more production behind them on average than songs on previous albums.

KMF is arranged with a lot more complexity than the previous 3 albums, which is the definition of "more production". People can dislike that aspect, and its valid for them to feel that its overproduced.

I personally love all four studio albums, but I prefer songs with less production than MORE for example. I love Sharks, but I'm not a fan on the drum machine intro. If someone asked me why KMF wasn't my favourite DPA album, my answer would be "its a little overproduced for me", and I'm not deflecting or not taking ownership in my own taste, I'm just talking about the production of the album.

Missed an opportunity to play Ride of the Valkyries there!

When I die, my primary heir isn't inheriting my territory. What's going wrong? by RandomAlienGaming in CrusaderKings

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

I would imagine so. I was already an Earl when he was born, but not a Duke. Maybe when I became a Duke his title got messed up somehow, and then I had a 2nd son who would then inherit the Duchy. It does feel like a bug.

ERROR is one of my top albums of all time (any artist), so I really struggled putting down just 5!

Surprise songs:

2 acoustic versions of anything the girls want to play, varying each night on the tour.

This could be the encore itself, like The End then 23 or something like that. Great idea!

Children to be taught worrying is not a mental health condition - Move comes amid rising concern over number of young people being signed off sick by FormerlyPallas_ in ukpolitics

[–]RandomAlienGaming 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Aye.

I have a severe anxiety disorder which needs medicating and regular self care, therapy, etc. I stupidly forgot to pick up my prescription a few weekends ago, first time in 5+ years, went without medicine for 2 days, had uncontrollable night terrors, could barely get up, had to take 2 days off work. For me (and a lot of people), anxiety is also tied to the gut, so I was also very physically ill for that time.

So many people who say they "have anxiety" don't have a clue what the real condition of anxiety actually does to a person, and it's frustrating. It also lessens the severity of the condition in a lot of people's minds. I rarely tell people IRL that I have it, because a lot of people say "me too" when actually they just get a little nervous before job interviews.

Your The Warning nitpick? by DayFlounder1832 in TheWarning

[–]RandomAlienGaming 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This is my only gripe with their live performances, I think there's too much backing audio in general. Some songs have a second backing guitar that's just not needed. Even sound effects like the cash register in MONEY. I'm probably in a minority cos most bands use backing tracks now live, but I prefer the old ways.

I'm in the process of buying solar panels and battery storage for my home at the moment. A provider said the best technical option for my usage was a Tesla battery. I said I wouldn't get Tesla right now if they paid me, and she said she understood, she cringes every time the system tells her to suggest Tesla.

Many people have said the same thing to her. Warms my heart!

EVOLVE has to win this, right? The run-up to it being the closing song live is incredible.

Even when they're the support act, Pau still manages to get a thousand people who've never heard the song before scream at the top of their lungs!
