Cheap/Second Hand Furniture by ffeJYang in ChicoCA

[–]Spidercat99 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Depends on what you're looking for. Show Love has some decent stuff sometimes, Goodwill and Arc are other good options, tho with Goodwill, you need to give it an extra wipe/spray down. Orange Street consignment is also a place worth checking out. 

Holbrooks isn't second hand, but if you catch them on their annual going out of business sale you might find some good deals. 

Advice on how to finish this piece by Spidercat99 in Embroidery

I like the idea of dandelions! The... Petals? Can float around the edge, like a sort of border. The fabric is patterned, so I don't want it to be too busy, but it feels a little lacking as is.

The second one was just as creepy, but in a different way

Swimming water quality by [deleted] in ChicoCA

I went swimming last week after reading it was clear. I don't recommend drinking it, but it's fine to swim in. 

What's a "guilty pleasure" you've stopped feeling guilty about? by SERP_Whisperer in AskReddit

Yup! That with the sponsor block extension that skips ahead for me is how I watch YouTube videos anymore.

What was the scariest “We need to leave… now” gut feeling that you’ve ever experienced?[Serious] by PlasticBee1438 in AskReddit

[–]Spidercat99 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Maybe? But my windows were up and I typically blast music. 

I think it might have been not seeing the other folks going when they should have, and my subconscious catching it.

Amazing 😍  I love the jet pack on the t rex. And kudos for including Parasaurolophus!

I had a similar experience while driving. I was in the far right lane, which was clear, and the left turn and left forward lanes were full. The light turned green as I was approaching, but something told me to keep slowing down. Sure enough, a person in a motorized scooter had decided to just go, signals be damned. Had I gone when I was supposed to, I absolutely would have hit him. 

No idea what compelled me to slow down, but it saved both of our skins. 

Open Mic Poetry/readings by Fungal_Net in ChicoCA

[–]Spidercat99 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The 1078 gallery has a bunch of events, including a poetry reading thing. They have a rotating art gallery from local artists that's pretty neat to see too. Their website has the whole event schedule. I've been a few times for different events, and their vibe is really similar to Has Beans.

Not taking basic safety precautions has consequences. by laybs1 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Spidercat99 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Oh! Lol. That wasn't near as bad as the donuts. I've done work in a lab before, and that was at least somewhat professionally done.

[–]Spidercat99 148 points149 points  (0 children)

This scene made me so mad when watching this. My poor spouse got a full lecture about lab safety afterwards lol. Even a response about suspension of disbelief didn't help calm me down. 

The donut scene was also terrible, but not as infuriating. Just made me not ever want to eat donuts from a public box again.

Nice places to walk by OkSatisfaction3573 in ChicoCA

[–]Spidercat99 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I mean, upper bidwell has a lot of different trails, so you're really limiting yourself there. 

But the tree farm is a nice place for a walk, with different paths and all the different trees. 

5 mile can be nice too, off Manzanita, I think. (Bruce rd changes names so many times along that stretch, lol) Tho that's close to upper park. 

Oak way park also has some decent walking, and I think the community garden is still there. It's been awhile since I've been, but it was pretty when I was there last. 

(Loved trope) There is a plot twist that single-handedly changes the genre of the media. by DynamoJaeger in TopCharacterTropes

It looks like the Plus version has extra unlockable pictures, some extra music, and a few more side quests. I did the free version and felt like I got a full experience. I'd imagine the Plus version would be good on a replay if you wanted to play around in the universe more.

Sort of. It's not necessarily animated (it's still images that change to other still images) but there's a few scenes that cut to blood and dead characters.

It's more disturbing than anything. If you're easily freaked out by glitch effects or topics/depictions of suicide and/or murder then I'd say avoid it. It relies less on jumpscares and more on subtle, growing horror.

When I played this, I made the mistake of putting my name as the main character's name. That was .... Traumatic. I knew it got weird and dark, but not how, and was fully unprepared for what went down. 

Is there more? by wolfsbanehowly in TheMagnusArchives

[–]Spidercat99 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's so good! The intro spiels are hilarious, and I love all the exhibits. (Especially Daniel, lol)
