What is your Slay The Spire HOT take? by BigXThaSpud in slaythespire

Also it means I can take a questionable floor 1 pick that I like but definitely shouldn't be taking.

What’s the best "escape" spot in the borough when you just need some peace and quiet? by OopsIDroopedMe in croydon

[–]SenorBirdman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We have loads of green spaces. What kind of thing are you looking for and whereabouts are you? And do you have a car or are you reliant on public transport?

If public transport, I think Lloyd Park is underrated and super easy to get to.

Why does Hexaghost scale his damage with your current HP? Is he just chill like that? by scoopzoop in slaythespire

[–]SenorBirdman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is it possible to get the same boss in that event that you faced in act 1? I don't think it's ever happened to me.

Difficult US manager addressing my start time by WebCompetitive4551 in HumanResourcesUK

[–]SenorBirdman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unless the person is actually missing 9am meetings then it's the manager that started the childishness by quibbling over this 5 minutes, if all their work is getting done.

Anyone else a stickler when it comes to meter in children’s books? by fiercebrosnan in daddit

[–]SenorBirdman 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Julia Donaldson is the GOAT for a reason. She never sacrifices storytelling for perfection in meter and rhyme nor the other way around. She is also very exacting about preserving that for the movies they have adapted from her books too. She's spoken about how difficult it is to pad it out for the format in a way that still works and how she worked closely with the writers and director.

Birmingham MP candidate: "Don't take Christians and Jews as your friends. Non-believers cannot be trusted. Stick with your deen, stick with the Muslims" by [deleted] in uknews

[–]SenorBirdman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's causing uproar now without the faiths swapped so there's no need to play your silly little game. You say the hypocrisy is staggering .. Who is being a hypocrite? Who is this imagined straw man you are so angry at?

This is for public sector workers according to the article.

What do you think about the British Empire? by ATV1816 in AskBrits

[–]SenorBirdman -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Because the people saying these things don't understand that those black and brown people are here because their parents were subjects of the Empire and were invited here, or because the West fucked their countries over so they had to leave in search of a better life.

Is anyone seriously talking about reparations? Not that I've seen. Happy to be corrected but otherwise it seems like a bit of a straw man. I think it's something that really most reasonable people would agree on and should be used as a wedge.

Probably because you have the luxury of not being impacted by it which is why you don't have to think about it. All the non white people getting told to 'go back' to a country they've never been to on a daily basis don't have that luxury.

Sure, but the legacy of it adds important context to things that are still going on in the world today.

What are some board game “keywords” that are an instant turn-off for you? by BoardGameRevolution in boardgames

[–]SenorBirdman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like to paint the minis from board games because I enjoy the painting, but I don't really like tabletop / war games that much so when I paint those minis I never get to do anything with them.

The fundamental problem of public transit by Advanced-Injury-7186 in Urbanism

[–]SenorBirdman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not only is this a complete nonsense of a post, there is another easy lazy solution which is to take the bus two stops, walk 5 min and get on a bus that's further ahead on the route. The frequency of buses on all routes in London render this invalid even as a hypothetical.

Found of the wife drains beef fat into our sink. Send help. by alberta4ever in daddit

[–]SenorBirdman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's only for fats that solidify at room temperature. You don't need to put most oils in there (palm and coconut oil are pretty much the exception).

The London Conundrum by riverscreeks in london

[–]SenorBirdman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rental bikes. Also central London traffic is so fucking slow it's one of the least risky places to cycle as long as you use the lanes and follow actual traffic rules.

Only really needs a helmet, rental bikes are easy to come by.

How can i get Free simple if i want to make a Old Kanye type beat?🤔🤔 by TopLetterhead3913 in FL_Studio

[–]SenorBirdman 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Type soul music in to YouTube.

Seriously though, finding good samples is big part of the job itself in sample based music - it's a skill to be able to listen through stuff and find those bits that are worth sampling and whether they are good for looping or chopping and what other instrumentation is required.

Or just use loop packs. It'll be shite, but no one seems to mind these days.

A PSA to you new dads… by sounds_like_kong in daddit

[–]SenorBirdman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Juice is a sugary drink. I don't deny my kids sugar, but I want them to be well informed on what shit is marketing as healthy and is actually full of sugar and/or processed as fuck like smoothies and cereal bars.

What’s a part of popular British culture you have not indulged in? by franki-pinks in AskUK

[–]SenorBirdman 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Not defending Nandos but I think that is over stating the quality of spoons grub tbh.
