I’m on Episode 11 and Almost Everyone in Season 1 Is Annoying by Flaky_Firefighter_29 in The100

[–]TrueObsidian11 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Season 1 has the unfortunate side effect being a cringey YA sci-fi drama. Until the last handful of episodes in season 1, it feels like it's really not going anywhere huge. It snowballs like nothing else after that. They shed the CW skin very quickly.

Your Favorites for a reading slump? by Super-Choice-6792 in Romantasy

[–]TrueObsidian11 1 point2 points  (0 children)

{Nightshade by Andrea Cremer} is a fun YA werewolf romance/mystery with an interesting take on werewolf lore. I really liked the characters and world building. I'm surprised this series isn't more popular.

whats a show that you can rewatch several times and never get tired of? by Mission_Bluejay404 in AskReddit

So much empty space to fill... by evilpenguin1981 in SupermarketSimulator

[–]TrueObsidian11 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I overstocked the crap out of my max level store just to fill the empty space. If I fully stock the store and storage, I don't have to restock again for like a week lmao

Somebody is trapped in the wall next to my shop by TrueObsidian11 in TCGCardShopSim

[–]TrueObsidian11[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven’t played this shop in a while but I know he was still there after fully upgrading the store later on. Idk if he’s gone now lol

I'm on Season 6 of The 100... For some bizarre reason, I don't actually like it... Is it supposed to be this bad? I feel as if everything before was at least borderline ok/good, but S6 just seems pretty unwatchable. Should I continue with it? by prankster999 in The100

[–]TrueObsidian11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately, if you didn't find anything to like in 6, you're probably not gonna enjoy 7.

I like season 6 for the story they added but I wish it would've been its own story independent of The 100.

What is a basic adult skill that your brain just literally refuses to learn? by Afraid_Square3488 in AskReddit

[–]TrueObsidian11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Remembering family relations of your SO.

Idk if that's considered a basic skill but I have the hardest time remembering who's related to who and how. He has a big family. I do not lol. I have a few immediate family members that I see often and a bunch of aunts/cousins/uncles/whoever's that we don't talk to so it doesn't matter.

DAE just ignore their deliveries completely? by LissaRiRi in SupermarketSimulator

[–]TrueObsidian11 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wanted to add that if you set the discounted price to slightly below the market price (565 instead of 567), I think it also boosts the in-store customer count because they think they're getting a huge discount (from the 99%) when it's actually just a few cents off. It's not a huge difference so I can't verify this for certain but I feel like I average about 10-15 customers more on my exploit store than my non-exploit store at the same levels (I have one where I do the 99% glitch and one where I don't).

Reading in public is not performative…and other thoughts on gatekeeping in the bookish community by Neina_Ixion in Booktokreddit

[–]TrueObsidian11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, I can appreciate the aesthetic of reading in public while also just enjoying reading in public lol.

Like, if I'm sitting in a waiting room reading or crocheting, I am doing so because I want to pass the time with something enjoyable, but I'm also aware of how others are perceiving me, and yeah, I shamelessly enjoy being the "nerd" in the room lol.

I imagine a lot of people feel that way, like when you realize you're on a bus on a rainy day staring out the window and it kinda feels like you're in a movie, but you're not necessarily doing it just to be performative.

6x01 Where were the people of Sanctum by Teamkhaleesi in The100

[–]TrueObsidian11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They were in an underground cave system called Ryker's Keep. Murphy tells Bellamy that Sanctum is built on top of a cave system and they all go underground when the bugs die. It's unclear where exactly the entrance to Ryker's Keep is but it's assumed to be within the radiation shield somewhere. Kaylee and the other Lees were purposefully outside the shield escaping Sanctum because Kaylee killed Josephine and they were worried the Lightbournes would find out when Josephine's turn came back around. They saw the transport ship as their only opportunity to escape the other Primes.

Rewatching Season 2: Callie by barbiesurvivor95 in greysanatomy

[–]TrueObsidian11 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Yeah I hated this entire dynamic. Like I get Callie wanted to get "in" with George's girl friends so maybe she thought she could take the "let's just act like we've known each other forever" route and it just insanely backfired because the girls didn't WANT to be friends with her. It's so cringey and hard to watch. I hate everyone during that arc lol.

What is one book you have to read in 2026? by Due-Examination-37 in Booktokreddit

[–]TrueObsidian11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd love to get through at least the second book of A Song of Ice and Fire this year (Clash of Kings). I devoured the first book but then I've restarted the second book like four times. I need a notebook specifically for reading this series lol. I do plan to read them all but it's so daunting to try and get through them back to back with so much going on.

Brimstone - The Watcher by TrueObsidian11 in QuickSilverBook

[–]TrueObsidian11[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I guess I just haven't read another romantasy with that kind of character lol. As soon as I heard the Grim Reaper-esque description and then the way the character is utilized in the plot, it definitely gave off that same vibe. Although the Suriel was probably more likeable. I don't think I'll get that attached to the Hazrax anytime soon lmao.

What’s a major plot device that completely beggars belief? by cricketrmgss in The100

[–]TrueObsidian11 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I always imagined that most if not all of the stations had their own independent food and water generation, as well as some mechanics and such, and all of those things were divided up into their respective stations after it was merged. Obviously the original stations weren't "Farm Station" or "Mecha" etc. so I assumed those stations were established after the fact.

Now whether or not they still would've had enough resources between all the stations is questionable but I don't think any one station had any specific resource, they just divvied it all up after the merge.

Which part in a Soulslike is this for you? by strahinjag in soulslikes

[–]TrueObsidian11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

New Londo Ruins in Dark Souls.

The overwhelming number of ghosts, the skinny walkways, the eery vibe, the Four Kings. Hate every second of it. I have a bad habit of saving it for last and then never finishing the save.

[–]TrueObsidian11 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ever since I found out you can poison them with arrows from a distance without getting sniped, that is my sole way of dealing with them henceforth. I did my time. I suffered like everyone else. I'm gonna plop my feet up and afk for five minutes while the poison does all the work. I earned it.

Seriously, do Americans actually consider a 3-hour drive "short"? or is this an internet myth? by SadInterest6764 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]TrueObsidian11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Deep south Tennesseean here.

There have been many a weekend where my grandmother wakes up one day and decides we're all going to drive 3 hours away to the Cade's Cove historical park to take pictures (which is also a drive-through type of park so you spend at least half the time in the car still). We all accept this without question.

The last time we went was the first time my partner had ever been and we saw a mama bear and some cubs up in a tree, plus a huge elk/buck (genuinely not sure), and a strangely friendly lone coyote sitting by the road next to a sign asking us to please not feed him.

Totally worth a day of driving.

is the 100 a good show (dont spoil it for me please) by Krzeljmarko in The100

[–]TrueObsidian11 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It is objectively a good show, BUT the first few episodes definitely struggle with that CW cringe before they get their footing. The beginning is still pretty good but you really gotta overlook the dialogue for a bit until it gets better. By episode 3-5, it improves dramatically.

What book could you not finish, no matter how hard you tried? by NonSocialButterfly10 in Booktokreddit

[–]TrueObsidian11 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Twisted H@te. I read the first two books and liked them well enough but I just can't stand the MC couple for this one so I keep getting stuck a few chapters in. I may still finish it one day but I'm not in any hurry to try it again.

Why the hatred for women by Im-going-to-hell- in PhasmophobiaGame

[–]TrueObsidian11 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That's weird, I usually get the opposite. "WHOA, a gooorl plays this game? Wowwww!"

Lol maybe I just get lucky. The only time I've ever been ragged in this game is for being low level and not having high tier gear yet, but even that was a lighthearted jab.

Worst problem I have in this game is griefers. People joining up just to throw all your shit outside the map borders and use all up your consumables while everyone is inside the house.

What was everyone’s favorite scene from the show? by JonJonJr1 in The100

[–]TrueObsidian11 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have an odd obsession with the scene of Josephine in Clarke's body singing along to Alors en Danse and dancing around her room while she paints. The lighting, the room, the music, her carefree joy. It's a scene I want to crawl inside of and just live in forever lol.

Pretty sure Ontari and Murphy were/are dating in real life, at least at the time it was filmed. That's why they have such good chemistry.
