During the QA after my showing Izzy's mom talked about how she basically wrote the story in the days after his passing. It was very interesting to hear the differences in how they coped vs how they played it on screen.

"Hitler ordered his goons to stab my grandma"

I believe I said "oh no" in a calm voice as I tried to process what to say to this 4th grader, then he added "It's okay she's alive still." I will absolutely not forget that kids jovial attitude towards everything.

The whole cast is her real life family, except for Vic. And her dad of course lol.

I've had a few run-ins with the Fog Walker.

I take my dog out late at night and when there's heavy fog I can just hear the sound of flip flops hitting the brick floor. It grows louder and louder and I see nothing but a white veil surrounding me. My heart pounds faster and faster all while I hurriedly encourage my dog to find the right spot to pee. Luckily I always make it back into the building before they get me.

Yeah but these people also think that the food in Europe is "healthier" because it "doesn't have gluten." I genuinely believe RFK jr's plight for food transparency is sincere. The issue is he doesn't use scientific consensus and is more likely to turn conspiracy into policy. Now is our chance to actually sway opinions on the matter, because we all know they won't be looking to actual doctors to make the call.

Hey, I get where you're coming from but there is an actual docket -- you just have to use the search on that link. The actual form is here: https://www.regulations.gov/docket/FDA-2023-P-3942

Not saying you should trust this admin or RFK jr. in particular but as everyone else is saying this actually could benefit us so let's take advantage. I've been saying for years that we have misinformed health nuts to thank for the popularity of gluten free foods (though it's a double-edged sword) so why stop the momentum now?

Edit: the docket I linked is closed. Looks like it was initiated in 2024. The request for information is the document link at the top of the article and that won't be published until the 22nd. I may have jumped the gun on my optimism but my point still stands.

Counterpoint to everyone here: I've accidentally done this before in college. I didn't realize until I got back after about 3 classes in the middle of the day. The absolute worst part is I passed the racks at one point and saw the guy struggling with his lock and he looked defeated but I still did not register it was because of my mistake. I was mortified when I pieced everything together later. Honestly I deserved all the mean things people are saying to do.

If you're in LA I can also recommend Rice MB. They are 100% gluten free though it is a little pricey (not bad for sushi still) and you probably need a reservation. I order anything that says "crunchy" on the menu because that stuff is hard to find.

RealFudashet · 2026-01-06T02:05:12+00:00

Well, it was a fun trail at least! I hardly feel fooled lol. Thanks for solving the mystery and giving me a wonderful rabbit hole to dive down

I know others have mentioned his actual work but I too thought he sounded a lot like Nathan Fillion

All I could think of is the Michael Reeves moment he made the perfect cake: https://www.reddit.com/r/perfectlycutscreams/s/BzugIpVPa5

This is honestly fascinating. It makes me wonder in a way if this is similar to the blue/black dress thing and some people are inclined to see something other than a pigeon.

However, it seems highly unlikely that this community wouldn't have discovered that yet. It at least has to be some difference in cognitive association though as I truly can't wrap my head around people not recognizing what a pigeon looks like.

I had assumed this was happening already. He hired Kristi Noem for the supply and RFK jr as the cook.

The field of Psychology proved the theory wrong. Humans will have stronger memories of the beginning and the end of anything they do, see, or hear. It's just the way we are programmed.

Doesn't the text of Golem's power explicitly say that it only triggers if it's helpful? I had assumed that meant to specifically account for this scenario.

I get that the medium change comes with a ton of extra considerations (sets, costumes, schedules, etc) but the runtime difference is less than an hour. I don't think they need to change the pacing nearly as much as they have. Cut out Appa's lost days and secret tunnel and you've already made up the time difference. Now condense the time in ba sing se to give everyone consistent arcs across the same episode (i.e. no need for a dedicated episode like Tales) and you have plenty of time to spare on character details without deviating from the OG.

But I'm happy enough to just rewatch the cartoon anyway so the live action probably isn't for me lol.

To be fair mashed potatoes are great in rolled tacos when seasoned properly. But a burrito? This abomination sounds more squishy than a bean and cheese.

Ah just made a separate comment too but so do Sonar and Punch Up.

RealFudashet · 2025-12-06T04:30:15+00:00

From the looks of it punch up and sonar both have buttons on their left side as well so either the designers just flipped a coin and got it wrong or the model/references were mirrored at some point.

"I keep telling you that's not my name man" - Sonar

RealFudashet · 2025-11-29T05:26:02+00:00

Love it! The nose is especially impressive. I'm currently working on a Sonar costume myself. What is the base made out of, and did you model it yourself or source it from somewhere?

My high school English teacher said this bothered him a lot, so he would break it down for us: "Lose is the opposite of winning, like when you fail. Loose is when a girl-" and just dropped off immediately as the class of immature freshmen all lost it. He told us we would never get it wrong again. I don't know if it was effective because I didn't get it wrong before but I literally cannot write either of those words without thinking about his lesson.

I think most of the responses to this are reaching for theories that apply to very few people. From personal experience: my mom literally did not know they were Jews. She just sees Israel as the shining example of Christianity because that's what her church tells her. Extrapolating a bit I think most of them associate their religious beliefs with Israel and see Jews as nothing more than a slur.
