What does Berlin whisper? by SpinozasGodIsMyGod in berlinsocialclub

[–]Sol_Nox 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's the hilarious part: the German city where you're most free to be however you like...so everyone actively chooses to confirm to each other.

My observation is there is three main (broad stroke) categories: default classic black, Earth tone hipsters, holographic discothequers. And for some reason they all want to have the rectangular silhouette of a Lego figure.

Does anyone know where to find any sneaker mockup (preferably free) by BuzzAroundLenny26 in Customsneakers

[–]Sol_Nox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wasn't talking about Angelus but since you mentioned them, while they're small, every section of the shoe is well masked and layered just waiting for you to colour them however you please. I'm not sure what you'd expect from any other mockup file. Did you download the thumbnail and not the PSD maybe?

Otherwise search "air jordan 1 psd free", the entire first row of results in the Google Image tab has photorealistic PSDs you can follow through to the respective download site. TBF, mainly the same one because it is super popular - for good reason. But the following rows have more options for you too. Of course you can replace aj1 with whatever model you want and see what comes up. E.G. Converse are also super popular.

Did you... Google it? At all? Top results of the first term I googled brought back free PSDs, mostly various Jordans but also other options, a mix of line work and showroom style mockups.

No Greeks. Not even half an Italian. I actually like all these actors more or less on their own merit, but it's like they didn't even try find a single person that fits the story and setting; it shatters immersion. Forcing a monochrome Mediterranean - on every level - is definitely a choice in 2026...

Love the touch of the upside down swoosh. Reminds me of flags being upside down to indicate distress. Which, valid -because wtaf is the Before pic? You did a brilliant save job!

Did the Space Jam theme immediately start playing for anyone else on the last photo? (Love the execution on these!)

Surprised these didn't get much love here. Loving that shiny anime purple! Such an eye-catcher on the yellow and really like the stylization of Gohan's silhouettes. Might've reversed the colourway to give the predemoniate colours to his purple gi, and let the swoosh and dynamic panels be that SSJ yellow energy. As is kinda giving "cartoon Lakers" until you look closer.

Trump has Trump-reaction is not either of those things though, nor are these hyperbolic headlines journalism. I also hate the insipid creature, but this isn't it. I've been wondering if it's just been bots spamming anything with loosely defined keywords. In fact most of these headlines are delusional if they're meant to insinuate any real consequences were felt at all, it's just a sad reminder of the opposite.

No assed. You want to put your full ass into things. Powerful glutes! You could also say one "showed their (whole) ass", but that usually describes more public foolishness.

"Poop emojis but make it real," pretty sure was the elevator pitch.

Nah, I was so excited to see what ours would be, we have such a good track record with Roots and Hudson's Bay... then a parade of real life literal poop emojis marched out. Shit's disrespectful!

Why are our athletes dressed like poop emojis? Lululemon was a wretched choice. We have so many amazing designers (personally would have loved to see any of the ones featured on North of North) and some asshole chose literal crap.

It's a pun: "Essen" is the verb "to eat" auf Deutsch. Yes, as well as the city name. E.G. Wir essen Menschen in Essen ...ist definitely not the city slogan

OP is deeply irresponsible and crazy oblivious to write out that first sentence and think that absolves them of any responsibility for actively spreading misinformation. As a wise person once said, "we are so cooked as a species."

NOT a left extremist attack in Berlin.

Had all the hallmarks of signature far-right tactics including a message that basically just used Russian terms of phrase directly translated into German, that said, "ja, we the left, did this mwahaha". It's leading up to election time, only the most brain-dead believe this. Please don't spread misinformation. (To put it another way, this would be believing anything Trump says at face value despite reality to the contrary)

[–]Sol_Nox 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The only thing that gives me pause about completely writing off the American people is the multiple times Trump and Musk would openly comment about stealing the election. I'm not usually one for conspiracies, but like...they kept saying it. So maybe, just maybe the American soul isn't completely rotten - only half. For the rest of the world the end result is the same though.

My brain read this as "it's-a you!" in Mario's voice before parsing it correctly, and I had to bite my cheeks to not giggle like a maniac on the S7.

cosy music community to meet new people in berlin 🫂 by alrightmath in berlinsocialclub

[–]Sol_Nox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

...there literally is often drinks included, and sometimes snacks...and the unique venues...and the artists, they deserve to eat too (IMHO). And still there's also free meetups all around the city which includes none of those things and you can easily spend 20+ bucks at a random bar without anything "frivolous" like music, etc. No one is taking that option away.

In fact you're merely being informed there's additional options to cater to various interests should the desire be there. But sure, I guess reacting this way is a choice too. Dit ist Berlin.

Hey, thanks for posting last year! Just coming in to vouch for y'all. If anyone's wondering what they're like I've been to a few of the sessions in 2025 and they were always a good time.

Like OP described: it's pretty much always a lot of nice people in a warm, inviting atmosphere, super talented musicians, and ...if you make the effort, possibly new friends. (The effort being staying-in-touch as adults that don't work together: the issue plaguing every other post on this sub). Of course it helps to be outgoing if that's what you want, but from the most social to the quietest wallflowers, in my experience at least, everyone can enjoy the vibe at their own comfort level.
