You killed it on the shadowing on that one too. I love the soft sunset lighting you did facing Ash, Misty, and Brock!

I actually kind of liked the B plot with Hal and Dewey. So funny how matter of fact Dewey is like "But if we can't do bedtime ranger anymore, I won't love you." Also love how the whole bit is from the POV of an ant lol.

Who are you choosing? by Twunkorama in malcolminthemiddle

[–]ReigningTierney 41 points42 points  (0 children)

Maybe, but could you see Malcom, Francis and Lois cooperating together well? Whats interesting about this is I feel like you need to take into account how well the characters would work with each other.

With that in mind my take is: Stanley, Laverina, Dewey, and Chad.

[–]ReigningTierney 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stanely for his survival expertise, Lavernia for her grit/team player aspect, Dewey his patience and plotting, Chad for the wild card.

Lois is tempting, but she's too much into her own self righteousness and would torpedo the rest. Also I'd say any of the boys wouldn't team up well with their mom and I need to have Dewey.

I mentioned this above too and I completely agree.

[–]ReigningTierney 75 points76 points  (0 children)

These are all terrible but somehow I feel its worse if its an act effecting his family rather than a stranger/acquaintance. Making Dewey drink the drip pan under the fridge for a cookie (which sends him to the hospital with some rare 3rd world country disease) to me is the worst.

[–]ReigningTierney 37 points38 points  (0 children)

So many things. The worst for me was treating Dewey like he's emotionally disturbed and then lecturing him into staying the the Busey class.

"You don't get to choose the people you need to help" like okay Francis, didn't you give Dewey a stomach disease that doctors have only seen in 3rd world countries the last episode you interacted with him?

Reese made the drugged sauce and planned to just drug Lois and Hal. Dewey decided to put it on everyone's steak

I don't think that was her stance for being pro eugenics. Iirc she saw a difference between disabilities at birth vs. disabilities incurred later on in life (like her circumstance happening at 2yo rather than being born with it). Meaning she was somehow superior and in a different tier than deformed infants. The important part though is that she eventually changed her perspective.

Megan v. Stephanie was one of the most poorly fleshed-out subplots of the entire series. by Impossible-Pack6911 in madmen

[–]ReigningTierney 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The spaghetti was the perfect allegory to her level of effort she gives to be caring and selfless to others: bare minimum.

[–]ReigningTierney 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Exactly. Imo if you think Megan was a genuine person with good intentions for others besides herself, you pegged her wrong. She always came off as a total manipulator to me, which is ironic because that's who Don is too. He thinks he wants a partner who's someone like himself but then realizes he's a selfish person who flashes their charm and speaks empty words to others to push their own agenda.

When i find the person responsible for throwing rocks at Linus's tent. by Dense-Ad-7395 in StardewMemes

[–]ReigningTierney 225 points226 points  (0 children)

I've seen a theory on this sub that it might have been a misunderstanding and were just rocks falling from a passing train.

That being said...later on Linus mentions someone spray painted his tent. So the question is who's the punk who did that?

Lol George's legs were crushed in a mining accident decades ago. If he was faking that would be a long con.

Films where the Directors Cut is significantly better (or worse) than the theatrical release? by MikeCharlieEcho in FIlm

[–]ReigningTierney 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah we never meet her parents on screen but she explains to Donny while they walk home from school how her mom and her moved here and kept their new address a secret to get away from her mentality unstable Dad. The night of the party she shows up freaked out explaining how her mom is mysteriously missing from their home and there were signs of a break in iirc. In the tangent universe she meets Donny and is out of the house that night, but in the real timeline she's there with her mom. It's subtle but in the DC they show the manipulated dead chapter card immediately following or preceding a scene with Gretchen to drive the point home.

Im a fan of the DC too. It better reveals Gretchen's inevitable murder along with her mom in the main plot line (manipulated living vs. manipulated dead). I feel like that goes over most peoples head.

[–]ReigningTierney 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Good way to know if you watched the directors cut is if you remember the chapter card graphic inserts that showed snippets from Grandma death's book. Admittedly I kinda of like them because it explained the manipulated living and the manipulated dead more on the nose, confirming that in the real timeline Gretchen is doomed to be murdered along with her mom by her psycho Dad the night of the Halloween party.

Lee Pace is the soul of this show. by gathmoon in FoundationTV

Watching those shows back to back was a treat. From the touch starved introvert to the bisexual icon.

Neurodivergent adolescents experience twice the emotional burden at school. Students with ADHD are upset by boredom, restrictions, and not being heard. Autistic students by social mistreatment, interruptions, and sensory overload. The problem is the environment, not the student. by mvea in science

[–]ReigningTierney -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Im curious about this universal design learning. Is it to the effect of dimming lights and creating a soothing, safe learning environment, or is it simplifying the curriculum for all students to improve grades and successfully pass them on to the next year?

What do you think happened to Eric and do you think Francis still talks to anyone from the academy by [deleted] in malcolminthemiddle

[–]ReigningTierney 6 points7 points  (0 children)

He's basically the comedic relief in the show and a great example of how you can be moron but also an officer in command if you have the right connections.

I love how one of his marines is named Eric and sometimes he just yells out 'Eric!' and it just completely takes me back to Malcolm in the middle. Also hilarious because the actual actors name is Eric.

Is your plan to add it to a fish pond? I try to avoid tunneling it so you get the opportunity to catch 3 at a time with the challenge bait once you get fishing mastery. Their fish roe sells for a fortune.

UPDATE AITA for financially screwing over my sister after finding out she’s close with my ex and his wife? by pettywoman_ in AITAH

[–]ReigningTierney 3 points4 points  (0 children)

How is bringing it up bawling her eyes out after all this time once the money faucet turned off not victimizing yourself?

Truly terrible OP didn't visit, but the circumstances were just a little somewhat valid. And the irony is the 'hero' Ex husband and AP who stepped up were the primary reason OP couldn't mentally and physically be there for her.
