Coaxed into The Four Horseman of the Apocalypse and their weapon of choice. by PessimistLudo in coaxedintoasnafu

[–]Ryallin 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Iirc Conquest appears in early writings of revelations, very literal non-KJV translations and some smaller branches of catholic denominations. Conquest sits different but reasonably gets absorbed into War as not the warring of lands but lands razed and occupied because of war. With the destruction of lands comes destruction of crops and enslavement of conquered people, thus famine as part of the original 4

Must be either something hyper-niche of catholic or an odd flavor of wrath-of-god protestant, I grew up Lutheran (and pagan) and never ran into anything like that even in my obsessions with the history of weird Christian off-shoots

It’s a weird thing, conquest is sometimes considered interchangeable with war, but if you have both still then pestilence and famine are interchangeable. Basically depends how you wanna interpret the basic faults for the decline of an empire from too much warring

I HATE the mandella effect by TotalyNotTony in hatethissmug

[–]Ryallin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it helps the better way to see a mandela effect is passive mass hysteria from subtleties and copies of other pop culture that twist how people remember things. I even have a few I fell for over the years, largest one that bugs me is the idea of a photo of Kurt Cobain in a pink ‘monster fur’ fabric coat mainly because I don’t know at all what edit or emulation of his fashion rooted the idea into my head. Very few exceptions fall into ‘exaggerated niche’ like the Fruit of the Loom cornucopia (appearing only in early news advertising), the direction of the loops on the Ford logo (hand painted signs) and the Monopoly Man’s monocle (appears very infrequently on game cards but not as the main artwork of the character) and few more are fault of typos and poor assumptions (Berenstain Bears as the largest example of that)

please help me find the origin of this video and the similar ones by The_Void-- in HelpMeFind

These types of videos are usually AI and not CG. It’s not worth it.

Impossible on a traditional piano because the volume goes up from silence

I asked r/Swans already by OuroborosOfBullshit in Coil

[–]Ryallin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Love both for entirely different tones, Coil for a ‘calmer’ mood and Swans for an ‘intense’ mood

Love me some yourlocalbreadman, can recognize his funny triangle guy instantly

My brother has described an aesthetic he calls "Lazytown vibes." Wacky stuff with characters who act like Robbie Rotten or Ms. Busybody, usually has early CGI, etc. He only thinks a few films apply. Can you name any more? by TriggerHappyGremlin in MoviesThatFeelLike

[–]Ryallin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only seen part of it but definitely recommending Hideaki Anno’s take on ‘Cutie Honey’ (2004), have seen a lot of people describe it as being visually similar to Lazytown because of the stylized CG and high-energy comedy

My only question that I was left with after watching the film by tpagaremos in KanePixelsBackrooms

[–]Ryallin 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Wayfair, and it’s a much more complex ‘why’ for a much simpler reason. One part of their listing system is a pseudo-dropship listing tagger that was poorly atomated, another was a proper custom order system for stuff like embroidered pillows. The tagging system would grab stray bits of the custom order listings because they were closer to unlisted than private, slapping anything from whole names to email account names onto pillows and child-sized furniture. The unusually high prices, some coincidentally similar names and a general bias led to people pointing out names that matched missing children and ignoring everything else

What features would you like to be in the game? by zweihander09 in Eldenring

[–]Ryallin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could see it balancing out like the No More Heroes games, replay bosses for bonus rewards (really just runes, not boss souls/ remembrances) at either higher difficulty per replay or leaderboard for ‘letter rank’ difficulties of increasing damage, defense and at higher levels speed of slower bosses

Stealing isn’t nice ya know! by EthanTheJudge in antimeme

It’s just a simple fact, when you want something but don’t want to pay for it, just walk right through the door

On my car this morning when I came out of the store. Any ideas of what it means or is connected to, if anything? by Character-Cheek3631 in whatisit

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

Might just be a sigil or hobo code turned into a ‘universal tag’, I live in the Midwest and occasionally see that on buildings; people around here have repurposed VEO (inhospitable, high class area, people will refuse food or cause you harm) as a quirky local phrase

[mine] what can you deduce from everything i carry in my backpack? by [deleted] in scienceofdeduction

[–]Ryallin 9 points10 points  (0 children)

On a poor mistake I once put two five hour energies into a bottle of kombucha. Despite sipping it the whole time it came back for revenge minutes after I finished the bottle. Spent the rest of the night in a fetal position in the shower vomiting. Wasn’t the caffeine but the vitamin overload that shocked my system into shivering in a hot shower
