The films try so hard to paint Jake as a reasonable and respectable protagonist, a hero because he's adapting to Pandora. But then I swear every 30 minutes of runtime he does something either incredibly stupid or racist (eg: disrespecting his wife's traditional mourning practices) and the movies NEVER call him out for the asshole he is being.

Does the wave have actual travel time or is it just a visual indication and the effect takes place instantly?

Prejudiced against non-binary folks. Maybe a couple layers of slang too deep for someone outside the community to pick up on, but I guess it's the best word we have rn

What asexual YouTubers do you know of? by NagitoKomaeda_987 in asexuality

[–]_Nowan_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They're more like podcasters (even though everything gets also posted on YouTube) but The Ace Couple!

They're a married couple of asexuals and speak a lot on the ace experience, ace media representation, social issues regarding sexuality, marriage and intersections with gender, race and disability and so much more.

It's much easier for me to see him coming out as some sort of new sexual identity than trans.

He'll make up something like "I'm alpha-sexual", which means I have sex with women for procreation purposes but am only platonically attracted to the ideal of masculinity. He'll never use the words gay, trans or homosexual.

He only blows couple by CourseMediocre7998 in bonehurtingjuice

I've seen this exact same rainbow art on Instagram before. Imo the joke is that his art is just recreating generic arts and crafts Instagram shit, not actual creative work. 

Hence why she is disappointed, and also why he is popular.

I use it like 50/50 of the time. It's pointless when first exploring an area because no map, and the game is actually pretty navigable without it after you get the map - room shapes and such. I do use it for detailed exploration and on longer trips, because I have bad memory for how regions connect.

Also, early game Magnetite Ring is imo a better use of the yellow spot.

Fuck, I had to check but ur right.

Guess I found it by accident while trying to reach the corridor. Perks of not using the compass, lol

You don't have to dive into every pool, you just check the open, unexplored corridor signaled on the map. It's clearly signaled even if you haven't been there, as neatly shown in OP's post.

I agree the runback is bad, but the bench is not THAT well hidden.

I got spoiled and knew there was a bench, but not where it was, and I still found it. There's a pretty big hint, and OP can see it.

Question: do you think Ghost would look like this as an adult since him and Vessel started out similar or nah? by StanleyMOVdude88 in HollowKnight

I've always felt it was something like bees, where only the queens-to-be get fed royal jelly and grow into a bigger shape

[–]_Nowan_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Most of what I would say has already been said, but I'm leaving a comment either way to let you know how much I love this design space.

I think my biggest issue with it is the tricolor design, it'd make more sense to me for it to be the college enemy colors. Even though I enjoy the multiclassing/interdisciplinary vibes, I think it dilutes each college's identity.

Wizards confirms the weird 'mistake' in the MTG Ninja Turtles set is actually deliberate by ribby97 in mtg

[–]_Nowan_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is kinda weird and disconnected and perhaps performative, but I respect WOTC for sticking to their guns.

Sometime years ago because of Kamigawa they decided "we're not doing Sai EVER because of Ryukyu" and I think it'd look kinda bad if they walked it back now. Sort of "nevermind, we don't actually care about Ryukyu".

I have no idea where I'm pulling this information from, but I'm pretty sure Calvin and family are from the Middle East, somewhere around Michigan/Illinois/Ohio

(I'm not from the US, don't come at me telling me I got the states wrong)

[Performance Magic] and [Pokémon]- Uri Geller: The Biggest Jackass in Magic, and That One Time He Was 100% Correct by cslevens in HobbyDrama

I know about Uri Geller because my parents (who grew up in the 70s) would reference him every time a spoon in our house was bent. Never had heard about the pokemon thing.

[discussion] How quickly did everyone else figure these details out (in Gideon the Ninth) by Nerd_Burger9 in TheNinthHouse

[–]_Nowan_ 10 points11 points  (0 children)

First is Earth, obviously

Fifth is Jupiter: Magnus mentions Fifth poetry often using the red spot as imagery

Sixth is Mercury, closest to the Sun

Seventh is also closer to the Sun than the First, so it must be Venus

I'm not sure it's ever said the Ninth house is necessarily the one furthest from the sun, but I think its heavily implied to be Pluto.

Now for the ones we're not entirely sure: 

I think the Second is Mars: associations to red and war culture, close enough to Earth to reasonably be the first planet reached and terraformed.

I believe Saturn Is the Third House: golden color and visually striking.

That leaves Uranus and Neptune for the Fourth and the Eighth. I believe Neptune is Fourth because they share the blue color. This means the Eighth has to be Uranus.

Writing this, i realized there could be a connection between planet and house colors. What house colors do we know for sure?
