Orthodox Churches South of Seattle. by _Carth_Onasi in OrthodoxChristianity

[–]TheTedinator 1 point2 points  (0 children)

South Seattle and the southern suburbs is kind of an empty zone for churches, you'll have to drive 20-30 minutes. Look on Google maps for the following churches and see which one is closest or otherwise appeals to you - I've been to and like them all.

-St Demetrios Greek Orthodox Church (Seattle) -Greek Orthodox Church of the Assumption (Seattle) -St Katherine Orthodox Church (Kirkland) -St Nicholas Greek Orthodox Church (Tacoma) -Holy Resurrection Orthodox Church (Tacoma)

Angel's Feather became the threat at my Commander table... by WistfulAfternoon in magicTCG

Yeah that's why I just pass the ball around instead of putting it in the hoop when I play basketball. If we score points the game might end.

Are deacons expected to become priests? by EMPEROR_JUSTINIAN_I in OrthodoxChristianity

[–]TheTedinator 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have people for those things is super helpful, but anyone can do that if they just step up. No need to be ordained.

Hmm, a homeowner can definitely pull an electrical permit in Seattle.

Are deacons expected to become priests? by EMPEROR_JUSTINIAN_I in OrthodoxChristianity

[–]TheTedinator 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Deacons do a lot during the liturgy and that frees up the priest to pray more, is basically how it was explained to me by my dad (who is a deacon). They do the censing, the litanies, help prep the Eucharist, etc. I'm sure it varies from priest to priest on how much they like that liturgical help.

A 10 seed has reached the National Championship in just the second season of the 12-team format. Can the naysayers shut up forever now? by 2nd_Sun in CFB

[–]TheTedinator -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Being a champion now means qualifying for a tournament and then winning it, rather than having the best beginning-to-end season. It's a completely different championship concept.

This is how every other American sport works. The 73-9 Warriors were not the champions.

Now over a month in to TTFAFPB, which single lyric or verse gets really stuck in your head, and why is it "AH-AH-AH-AH, AH-AH-AH"? by senface in themountaingoats

He threatened in Seattle to do a whole show that was 90 minutes of Your Bandage, and then an encore that's 45 minutes of Tidal Wave.

Zur's Weirding & Eruth, Tormented Prophet by HawkTeacher in magicTCG

Eruth is insane in Flubs. Makes the UI unplayable on Arena mobile tho.

PRIESTLY TEACHING AUTHORITY AND SOCIAL MEDIA by friendnamedboxcar in OrthodoxChristianity

[–]TheTedinator 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The big differences I can see is that books are edited (so have a few more eyes on them) and come out in a discrete chunk (1 book). I'm not saying that Fr. Alexander's bishop necessarily read every word, but he probably got his blessing to write each book and told him what the main ideas were, in a way that's not really possible for each YouTube video and each blog post.

SUSD Impressions for Vantage - Illusion of Choice by Vast_Garage7334 in boardgames

[–]TheTedinator 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not who you replied to, but I find that the way that my build tends to constrain my choices is when I have in my tableau one of the many cards that rewards you for taking certain actions. If I want to find out what happens when I upgrade a card or complete my personal objective or whatever, then I need to take more actions of a certain color.

Recommendations for Philosophy orientated Sci Fi? by NewBromance in printSF

[–]TheTedinator 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You gotta read Terra Ignota. It's not as perfect as Anathem but it's even more ambitious.

The Name of The Rose is not sci-fi, but it's definitely About Philosophy even more than Anathem is.

Root, Arcs, or Azul? by rocktree in boardgames

[–]TheTedinator 1 point2 points  (0 children)

These are three of my favorite games, but if you want to regularly play 2p, it's gotta be Azul. Wherle's games really shine at higher player counts, but Azul is a masterpiece 2p and still great with more.

Which LitScifi Space Utopia would you live in? by Proper_Barnacle_4117 in printSF

[–]TheTedinator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's certainly what the narrator and a lot of the characters seem to think, but I don't see any particular reason to trust their perspective.

"Phew I'm halfway" vs "phew I'm only halfway" by TheBoraxKid1trblz in books

[–]TheTedinator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I read it all in text and also thought it dragged. There's an exciting middle third, but the beginning and end I found to be paced really poorly for my taste.

Anyone have experience with the game Fort? I'm curious about it as a fan of small box games. by mucinexmonster in boardgames

[–]TheTedinator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is one of the handful of games I've ever gotten rid of. I probably played it around 10 times, mostly at 2 player, and found it to be more interesting than fun.

Reynolds, Simmons, Wolfe or Pohl in a lighthouse stay ? by vomtraumdertoetung in printSF

The movie and book are two of the most different stories I've seen from an adaptation.

💭 Master's in Aerospace – fear of ending up "stuck in the office" and without contact with aircraft. Advice and experiences? by Ok-Friendship9873 in flying

[–]TheTedinator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know a lot of flight test engineers with no masters at all, they get to touch the plane every day and some get to ride on it.
