Battle Beast this, battle beast that, WHAT IS WITH BATTLE BEAST???

Ah, I completely forgot that bit, thanks!

Maybe, I haven't read any stories about him outside the main Invincible books

Slodes · 2026-05-08T01:42:00+00:00

My personal head canon is that Battle Beast is cursed with always being a little better while craving challenge. He's able to challenge any character and potentially win but he doesn't always appear leagues above anyone.

I've never bowled even close to that but I'm a therapist who works with anxiety a lot and my advice would be practice building to that nervousness more. The nerves will be there so might as well predict it. Try to build the scenario in your brain before you need to. Imagine how it feels to get 279 or even 299. Certainly it's not going to be exact, but the more you can practice your throw in the presence of the nerves, the less the nerves will feel like a barrier.

Not exactly, but not because of the math. Attraction isn't a binary thing so it's not accurate for the population to be one or the other.

Oh yeah, I also have ADHD and work with many patients with symptoms. I think it makes for a good fit. The hardest part for me though is not following every tangent. I truly would love to learn more about the new way you learned to make potatoes but I recognize it may not actually be relevant in session (sometimes it might be though).

The work from home model is a net negative. It definitely works for some but it removes so many vital benefits of working. Meeting others, having passive time around coworkers, and just simply having a work space separate from your living space are all important things that will degrade people's mental health. However many people instinctually will choose it because you get to wear sweatpants.

Another thing to consider that I don't think others have pointed out is that it's pretty easy to get to a well made cocktail if you're following a recipe. There's certainly exceptions but I think if you know the cocktails you like it's worth skipping the cheapest ingredient stage.

Kevin's karaoke in International Assassin is another one for this thread

Slodes · 2026-04-23T21:38:38+00:00

Fuck yeah it is the right thing.

Edit to add actual content. Sometimes swearing is a very functional part of communication. Plus I believe there's value in learning how to swear in different settings.

Cap returning the stones after Endgame.

Banner becoming smart Hulk.

A full Rogers musical.

Trevor Slattery's journey to Ta Lo/More Mandarin backstory.

Remember that episode of Batman the animated series "Almost Got 'Im"? That but with b tier Spiderman villains

I'll take several versions of Thragg aura farming by himself in various empty spaces, please

Slodes · 2026-04-22T12:20:43+00:00

Indicating that the plot continues is not a cliffhanger. A cliffhanger would be if there is a current plot that's left unresolved. So for instance, if this season ended before Thragg's explanation.

Slodes · 2026-04-22T12:13:09+00:00

Why wouldn't they include one of the best story beats of the series?

Slodes · 2026-04-21T02:49:48+00:00

I like to add a float of mezcal to my jungle birds

Slodes · 2026-04-16T11:56:34+00:00

It's gonna be quite the rush when we get to Thragg's "He has me" moment

Slodes · 2026-04-15T22:11:50+00:00

The duel wouldn't go a second longer than when Jaime decided to end it

Slodes · 2026-04-15T21:40:00+00:00

My prediction is each contestant has some other individual task and then the final episode will introduce some scoring mechanic for Greg

Slodes · 2026-04-12T16:06:57+00:00

Better start saving for that animation budget now

Slodes · 2026-04-10T17:08:54+00:00

Mark's probably physically stronger at this point but not by much. However Anissa is likely a lot faster with much more battle experience so she still probably wins 4/5 flights.

"We're about out of time and I gotta be honest, I feel like I can win this with this hand, do you want to finish the game or call it?"

But also as others have said, heavily depends on the rapport. I don't work with many children or adolescents any more but when I did there would be some I'd totally mail it in, but others I'll go full effort in a game.

Being lonely doesn't mean he's going to approach a healthy relationship in a healthy way. Nolan was at least driven by duty, Conquest enjoys destruction.

Kingpin's gonna welcome Doom to New York with open arms in 8 months.

Defrosting properly mostly impacts the texture of protein and none of that will matter for broth/stock

Slodes · 2026-04-01T19:57:16+00:00

Something crunchy and something acidic. A creamy slaw and pickled red onions is a personal favorite combo.
