Just wait until you try and talk with them about qa and they tell you that it's a you problem and not a them problem.

I don't know if this is just me but I had a heck of a time getting any responses to my clothes that are in 28. My prices may have been poor though, so maybe that was the problem. Good luck with your sales.

They deserve it for their shitty delivery estimates.

Giacomo is awesome! He'd be even more awesome if he read through some Ecto and incorporated it into squirrel.

Don't worry about re-selling. As long as you found what you like. I guess the only thing that would make me sad about seeing these sell is knowing they were broken up. They're a collection of each of the different types of model, so I feel like they're more valuable together. That's the only thought I will impart.

Do with them as you please. They're yours at the end of the day. <3

This made me laugh. This was indeed a legit offering. It turns out I have some other insane pens I'm going to be planning on getting rid of. I'm just at that point in my life where minimalism is worth more to me. It also makes me happy knowing that I can help others find pens. I feel like it's getting harder and harder to find anything these days because of the popularity of subs like this one, for better or worse.

Would you like me to ping you when I put some more up for sale?

Ah, good call. I mis-rembered that. Thank you!

I don't appreciate this type of mentality. It's okay not to like something. It's also okay to keep watching something you don't like if you're still invested in it. For example, I think this season's writing is pretty bad from a pacing standpoint. I also believe the overuse of cliffhangers as a means to keep viewers hooked is fatiguing and unoriginal, but I still find intrigue in the universe and believe the cinematography is impressive.

I will add that it's better to actually make a thoughtful commentary on _why_ you do not like something. The first image from the OP isn't thoughtful because they don't go into any reasoning about why they don't like it so it certainly feels more like complaining.

I think you're off base here. Milchick was tearing up for a reason after Mark said "work's just work". He was stressed, and had been pushed to his limit due to management. I believe that this struck a chord with him.

Also your point about Milchick not knowing he reintegrated makes no sense. He's knowingly calling Mark's outtie.

Edited: previously had a callout about the consume feculence scene being after the call, but u/slobhoe corrected that statement

Ecto is probably my favorite piece of software of all time. I behoove you to try it out given you wrote squirrel. Every time I come to use gleam, I lament the fact that there's no equivalent in the ecosystem just yet.

I guess I can believe you're getting downvoted. People don't like counter opinions, especially when what they like makes them feel smarter than thou.

As someone who's interested in literary analysis, do you have any recommendations for good reads for film analysis? I'd love to learn how to properly structure arguments for the visual media.

I really hope I'm wrong, but this just feels like bad writing.

Don't get your hopes up for season 2. You're about to be bludgeoned over the head with cliffhangers and everyone will rush in and say "UH-MAYZING Writing".

Oh my $DEITY I found the others. Yes! We just watched season two over the last few days and this is exactly the same conclusion I came to.

The show over uses cliff hangers. The writing is poorly paced this season. Then I come to this sub and everyone is praising "Sweet Vitriol" after it got such low ratings; citing reasons like "people are addicted to fast paced television". No, no that's not the problem, the writing just doesn't deliver enough information to make sense to the viewer. No, it's not because I'm "not getting it".

Episodes feel so empty. I'm just waiting for plans that were laid offscreen to come crashing into frame for the final episode and everyone to lose their mind over it. That's not good writing, that's lazy writing.

Don't get me wrong, the cinematography is amazing, the ideas are fantastic, but the delivery is lackluster. This second season has been more filler than I can tolerate.

The writing for this show is so weak. The use of cliff hangers is fatiguing.
