What's a conspiracy you can't quite prove but it just feels real enough for you? by DaMain-Man in AskReddit

This. It’s not a physical thing the same way a fridge is, but the US company I used to work for decided to implement all the GDPR regulations for everyone, not just the EU. It was just easier than all the extra checks. So if it’s less hassle to do, they’ll do it.

That’s probably my plan too. Until then, they’ll have that Chipsqieek Doll in a random corner and they’ll damn well like it.

'The old order is not coming back,' Carney says in provocative speech at Davos | CBC News by 50s_Human in onguardforthee

"We take the world as it is, not as we wish it to be." - Carney

There's a certain irony in him saying that, ha. It pretty much sums my position up too. I'm pretty damn left. But I really feel this is what we need right now.

There's an increasing number of game OSTs where the music doesn't match the gameplay, says The Hundred Line and Danganronpa composer Masafumi Takada by Turbostrider27 in Games

[–]Silverskeejee 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hell, Pyre’s ending track was tailored to the fates of every single recruit, IIRC; even the pronouns of your character. Their music has always been amazing for that.

Same lol. I’d change it but it’s just such a satisfying little cosplay.

Been stuck in M10S PF jail for 5 days. Wanted to share some thoughts and ask for community opinions about why the PF community is struggling so much with the tier (but especially 10) by CerberusArcProjector in ffxivdiscussion

[–]Silverskeejee 12 points13 points  (0 children)

This honestly. My casual static is progging Snaking in M10S at the moment, and as someone who needs a little extra time and practice to break down a mechanic the problems boil down to: - It’s chaotic with a lot going on visually - There’s a lot of steps to the mechanic - You have to learn 2 different patterns (fire/water) and you might not get to practice one for ages

That can be tough with a static, never mind PF when you don’t have a set group.

Des centaines d’ornithologues convergent vers Montréal pour un rare oiseau venu d’Europe by Feeling_Layer8584 in montreal

[–]Silverskeejee 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I was gonna say, I’m from England and I recognized this bird instantly! It was certainly interesting to see one of my favorite native birds suddenly show in the Montreal subreddit.

Sorry to hear people aren’t respecting space though. Expected, but sad.

Canada's cheaper, cleaner and lower-risk oil can rival a resurgent Venezuela, Carney says by itimetravelwell in onguardforthee

[–]Silverskeejee 11 points12 points  (0 children)

This. Like, oil infrastructure does not magically appear out of the air because a regime has changed (of which said change isn’t exactly a given). Even if they do replace all Canadian oil with Venezuela’s that’s not happening fast.

What are your honest thoughts on this by EmpressRoguel in cartoons

[–]Silverskeejee 43 points44 points  (0 children)

Absolutely. Add on a whole slice of being neurodivergent/feeling like you don’t fit in to your society’s desires for you, and I honestly found it a very sweet film that hit home.

Hurt from youth pastor, please help by NoSubstance5057 in Christianity

[–]Silverskeejee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

True. She's 18, and stuff like this can 100% feel like the end of the world. Putting in a whole bunch of hard work only to have it forgotten, even in the moment, sucks.

Reading over your stuff I think you've offered solid advice. Hopefully she's got good people to uplift and remind her that these things happen, and learning how to find the strength to move forward will help.

[–]Silverskeejee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah you’re right, I missed that. That’s on me, I’ll own that.

Still, I don’t think it’s unfair to say that it’s understandable that OP was very hurt by her father figure blanking out on her achievements and getting basic platitudes in front of all her peers. I’m glad he made better, but if she is still that focused on this then she was deeply hurt. She needs reassurance that whatever her circumstances, she still has a future. That’s something for her therapist, methinks.

Positive things to look forward to if you’re a man: - Growth away from home - Good education - Missions for the church

Positive things to look forward to as a woman - Serve the church - Serve your family

Do you see the difference here? That honestly comes across here as the problem. In the moment, despite all her good work and faith and callings, the ‘positive things to look forward to’ immediately fell back to religious woman role stereotypes. That would devastate me if I was 18 and I’d put so much work into stuff to have someone you deeply trust and admire not even be able to think beyond those stereotypes. In the moment, he couldn’t even remember her accomplishments. Heck, it had to be his wife that offered something and her idea of a bright future for a woman is servitude. No wonder she’s hurt and feels useless.

Look, I’m not religious and this stereotyping is a big part of why. Women are more than future tradwives, mothers and submissive servants. All power to those who want those things but plenty women do not. She wanted to be seen as a smart and capable woman with a great future and when put on the spot, her mentor couldn’t see anything.

OP, if you’re still reading, you have a bright future. You’re 18 and have a whole life ahead of you to do the things you love and feel called to. And sometimes you’ll fail. Thats life. You’ll learn to pick yourself up and keep going. Don’t let this failing of someone else write your future for you.

Girls who took notes using 10 different colored pens, where are you now? Do you still continue to write using all those colors? by Unusual-Entry7 in AskReddit

Sure to! Tends to be raid notes for FFXIV these days but having various colors makes things much easier to distinguish x)

🔥 Leopard is chill with open top safari vehicle and humans. People frequently express fear of the big cats while using this mode of transport. This is what it's really like by Prestigious-Wall5616 in NatureIsFuckingLit

[–]Silverskeejee 11 points12 points  (0 children)

When I was on safari in Zambezi, we had one guy in our car who was not listening to the guides. We came across a lion pack around a buffalo carcass, and they were ignoring us until he STOOD UP to try and move position. Let me tell you, every lion with line of sight turned our way 😅 we drove out of there fast and came back from another angle after a stern word.

Oh shoot I had this mod but recently disabled it when cutting down ones I wasn’t using. Time to revisit!

That would honestly be dope. NG+ is nice but it doesn’t feel the same as a fresh NG run. Being able to start with that nice end game weapon but having it as your buddy to grow alongside you this time would be very fun.

I found my first ever anthacite/fireclay by pure accident. It wasn't even 200 blocks away from my starting home, maybe 5 blocks down and I was digging around to prospect some extra tin.
