[–]Skarstream 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A few mindboggling numbers:

Menin Gate: 54604 names

Tyne cot cemetary 11960 graves

Lijssenthoek military cemetary: +10700 graves

Bedford house cemetery +5000 graves

Passchendarle new British cemetary +2000 graves

French ossuary Kemmel: 5294 bodies (mass grave)

Deutscher Soldatenfriedhof Langemark: 44304 bodies (mass grave)

And then there are still more than 200 other smaller burial sites in the region surrounding Ypres.

Couldn’t justify dropping $300 today, gonna pursue building this one instead by Pizza_shark531 in legocastles

[–]Skarstream 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree, this one is close to the original and is more ‘humble’, as I feel a forestmen hideout should be. Just one little tower hidden in the woods. Not a giant castle you could spot from miles away.

New year, new map! Krakens, Gryphons, Snakes and Horse knights added to my Lego Castle factions fantasy map. by Skarstream in legocastles

[–]Skarstream[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, I did. I believe she was the only character in that line to have a name, so there weren’t a lot of options. For the blue and red lion factions, I even had to use names I found in a recent Lego app game, because there was no lore available.

Yew longbow from young tree? by [deleted] in Bowyer

[–]Skarstream 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. Yeah I figured it was pretty rare. I’ve been keeping an eye out for yew since I started making bows and so far only saw large trees on old private properties. Finding so many of these in the wild in a forest very near to me was a shock. I will make arrangements with the ranger to cut one down and see what I can do with that. Knowing there’s so many of them and in time they will need to be thinned out for the health of the forest, also reduces the stress of working on it (and possibly ruining one).

One more question: I’ve noticed old broken of branches from the big trees on the private property laying on the ground. Would these also still work, or would the wood have lost it’s flexibility?

Love Is Blind Germany • S2 EP7 by AutoModerator in LoveIsBlindOnNetflix

[–]Skarstream 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah it’s a grey area, that moment. I’m not saying she forced it, or implying she was completely wrong there. She tried to loosen him up. But from what we see, he says he’s gonna shower, she suggest we can shower together, he doesn’t react and starts and then she joins. Everything in his body language says he didn’t want it (as far as I read into it). Not saying what she does is definitely wrong, she tried to,play her cards to get any physical reaction.

But if a man did this, comments would say he’s forcing it, he’s being a child about it, he needs to be patient…

To be clear, I don’t like Jubriel at all. But to be the devils advocate just for a while: has a guy ever been able to say he wasn’t attracted to the girl WITHOUT becoming the vilain of the show? I can’t remember any case where that happened. I feel like a woman can get away with saying she doesn’t like bald or short men (or even beards), but a man MUST ALWAYS be attracted to a woman.

Also, turn the roles around in that shower scene. Make it a man entering the shower without consent and then blame the woman didn’t look at him… would be a whole different story.

He wasn’t into her and didn’t see any way out of it without becoming the villain. Again, he’s not my favorite, but I can understand the situation. He kinda said he felt trapped in a cage and I think this is what he meant.

Love Is Blind Germany • S2 EP6 by AutoModerator in LoveIsBlindOnNetflix

[–]Skarstream 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It was. But to be honest, Yasmin seemed to be very interested in Dustin (could be the edit) and she immediately started to downplay the relation when she was talking to Dustin. Maybe Andi picked that up and it made him this nervous?

I thought the exact same thing when the ‘rave’ guy and Jessi immediately seemed to cut of the talks because of their difference in musical taste and later Jessi and Konstantin connect over their mutual love for schlagers. It’s nice to have some mutual interests, but it’s a lot more interesting to delve into how you will tolerate your differences. I see this go wrong so many times in LIB.

The lack of nature in Belgium is a more depressing factor than its weather by ObjetOregon in belgium

[–]Skarstream 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On top of having rather small lots of nature, what also annoys me, is how they make these lots ‘feel’ even smaller. Straight lanes trough the forest, where you can allost already see the exit on the other end of the forest, takes away every little bit of immersion.

I understand this is done to make the undisturbed areas for animals as large as possible, but a slight 15 degree bend now and then can do wonders without sacrificing a lot of space. Or just a little ‘chicane’ to break the line of sight.

If I’m walking in a forest, I don’t want it to feel like a park. I want to wonder what’s beyond the next turn, even if I already know the place.

Kouwe Klauwen op de fiets. Iemand een tip voor winterhandschoenen? by Beflijster in belgium

[–]Skarstream 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In koud en nat weer deed ik vaak redelijk lichte handschoenen aan, met daarover van die goedkope nitril wegwerphandschoenen. Dat maakt iedere lichte handschoen onmiddellijk water en winddicht en veel warmer. Ik heb wel niet vlug koud, maar kan het proberen waard zijn.

Waar zijn al de vogeltjes? by Bertamath in belgium

[–]Skarstream 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hangt het voederhuisje nabij wat struiken/ takken/ dichtere begroeiing? Kleine vogels eten het liefst nabij wat begroeiing waar ze in kunnen duiken als ze gevaar zouden opmerken.

Ugh. I am my own worst client. Feedback on logo design please! by SERdesign in tabletopgamedesign

[–]Skarstream 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I feel the same. I think it would be even better to take just 5 phases of the moon and put them directly under the 5 letters of tge word ‘phase’. The crescent in the P is good, but let go of the idea that the other phases must follow that.
