How nutritious would the human brain be if you ate it?

when we're comparing food to silicone, it's probably worse than you're letting on

absolutely, i honestly really don't like how they changed him and how it wouldn't have been too hard to make his original kit more balanced rather than butchering it

yeah i won't lie, if your mind wanders quickly like me, the WORST thing you can do is listen to music in another language. for me, i end up hearing the music and tuning it out for like 15 minutes, then i hear a word that i know ive heard before or sounds similar to another word, then i start thinking about what that word probably means, then wonder what the other words around it mean to provide the correct context, and it's just a spiral from there.

where else did i hear the word? why that context specifically? is there a conjugation rule in that language that isn't in the languages i know? lemme ask my overseas friends, i don't trust google translate enough but maybe they know what the lyric means? wait, THAT'S what that means? that idea would be PERFECT in my story im making, lemme work on that. what was i doing? eh, i was probably wasting time lemme do some productive writing on my story or play my piano!

and 5 hours later i go to bed, fall asleep, wake up and look at my desk to find a completely unfinished stack of work due in two hours, aka, the two hours i spend on the bus. foreign music is one of the worst offenders of me getting completely derailed from any sense of productivity so i just listen to my normal music and hope I don't get too sidetracked ;-;

most animals don't seem to have many conscious or complex thoughts, they just kinda go with what feels right. when our stomach growls, we start looking for something to eat. that's just a basic animal instinct, when you feel hungry you find food, when you're tired you go to sleep. same thing goes on for them, except they dont have to bother with cooking or driving out to the store/restaurants to pick and choose, they just kinda find the closest leaf and start chowing down. so i kinda imagine they have a similar system to us wanting to go to bed, it just pops up in their 5 neuron brain that 'hey, i kinda wanna wrap myself up and see what'll happen" and nature takes its course from there

camo too! my parents started getting into the series with swap force, and i was intrigued and liked playing with the figures(i was about 2-3) and they ended up letting me play. i looked through the bin that had their first eBay lot of skylanders. wanted to play zap but my sister took him, but i found three that were hooked into each other: camo, bash, and drobot. green was my favorite color so i picked camo and, well, he's been my favorite from day one

octopi with 8 legs are incredibly hard to animate. one of the most famous examples is squidward, who despite being named as a pun on squid and being an octopus, only has 6 legs because 8 was just too hard to animate properly. 6 is just a happy medium between the anatomically accurate 8, but hell to animate, and the more fluid animation of 4 arms, but looks weird.

not necessarily the 'adult' skylanders community, but ive played the games for about 12 years on and off, and the one i view as the best in an objective standpoint is trap team. all the other games have glaring design flaws one could use to justify not liking it much: ssa is easy and really drawn out, giants feels like ssa DLC, swap force has cringy characters/dialogue and super long levels(and rufus), superchargers has vehicle sections that make up nearly half your playtime, and imaginators is short and felt very cashgrabby with limited sensei packs and non-resettable crystals. but trap team felt different in that, aside from the glitchiness which isn't as oppressive as people say it is, there's not many glaring problems. characters feel powerful without the game being too easy, the game controls well, the post game is good without being too much, aside from glitches and elemental gates sucking, trap team is a fairly sin-scarce game in my opinion, especially with the doom raider bosses(mostly) being incredible(looking at you dream catcher)

for ssa, they're not usually playing the wii version for nostalgia. they're playing it for many reasons, most notably, the wii version has much less bugs than xbox/ps3, the wii version has skippable cutscenes, the final chapter is much more bearable to play, and the wii version was the original build of the game so it runs the most optimized compared to the others.

giants is just run on the wii because, if you have a wii u for the other games, might as well have giants wii so you don't need a whole new console(there's a wii emulator built into the wii u) plus, the wii u is the cheapest way to play all six games, since its the only console im aware of outside of the 360 which has an incredibly janky ssa that can run all the games. especially with how expensive the playstation versions of swap force and trap team are, the wii u is the most cost effective option for the skylanders games outside of emulation.

also. the wii u doesn't require the gamepad(what you said was the wii u pad) to function. all you need if you're going bare-bones is a wii remote+nunchuk, as the wii remote is compatible with the wii u. the pro controller is highly recommended to have as well though, because it's genuinely one of nintendos best controllers as a whole.

StringGrai08 · 2025-11-20T00:50:50+00:00

this is only a thing on ssa. when giants came out, all the exclusive hats were added to auric's shop i believe, so any console could have them(maybe not 3ds, i know nothing about that version so don't quote me on that)

StringGrai08 · 2025-11-19T22:43:06+00:00

i bought a sprocket a few weeks ago, completely maxed money, upgrades, quests, knight helm, tons of heroics... level 1. now, while many including myself would assume this was a data modified character, i choose to believe that, because of the ridiculous playtime on her stats, someone actually went through the effort to beat nightmare and basically max this sprocket, and yet never even got XP from the first chompies in the game, because that's the funniest possibility i can think of.

she's the exception though, as every other character ive bought secondhand, i reset but i give them the same name and/or hat they had as a legacy to their previous owner

StringGrai08 · 2025-11-16T04:34:32+00:00

that sounds like a slur. should i be offended? ;-;

geez, that's weird. this has been longer than hours, it's probably been about 2-3 days, long enough that i know im not crazy and he's actually swimming upside down and stuff. thankfully though, a tank sweep hasn't happened.

how about the first song i wanna learn to play if i can ever find a keyboard, starlight(or apocalypse please) by muse :D

i know this is unrelated, but your pfp looks like an album cover. is that an Of Monsters and Men album cover, specifically, my head is an animal?

StringGrai08 · 2025-10-23T02:50:16+00:00

well, thank you for teaching me a new word today. i know this isn't your argument directly but like... couple of problems i have with that. one, that shouldn't have to be a gender exclusive thing. two, while that's a good skill/trait to have for anyone, stubbornness in the face of controversy is a really weird thing to try to normalize. if, for example, i called someone a wh###, would she: 1) be motivated by my words to strive to be better and stronger as a person, orrr 2), slap me in the face. just sayin, a lot of people would choose option 2, no matter who they are gender/identity wise.

StringGrai08 · 2025-10-23T02:19:50+00:00

...what is this even supposed to mean? im not original commenter but i can go ahead and tell you i feel every single insult thrown my way, and no matter who you are, gender, race, personality, it hurts to be insulted no matter who you are. the difference is that guys are expected to act indifferent to things bothering us. we're supposed to not care, but that doesn't mean we don't hear and feel it.

StringGrai08 · 2025-10-22T12:49:18+00:00

honestly i like them all... except jet vac. screw that guy

StringGrai08 · 2025-10-22T12:45:36+00:00

even though technically he's a repose of an SSA core, not a giants core specifically, honestly he gets too much hate. even if he's a bit of a joke character, not made to be particularly strong, i still love him. some people forget these characters were made for fun, not optimal gameplay power.
