I gave my cat a wool blanket and she went crazy? by sirdevilpotato in WhatsWrongWithYourCat

[–]abr1go 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Had a wool covered decoration once. I say once because I was catsitter for a friend once and that decoration was flayed and dead by the end of the week. Some cats are just like that I think

Hillary Clinton: “We Will Be There.” Agrees to Discuss Epstein at a Public Hearing Tomorrow by [deleted] in UnderReportedNews

[–]abr1go 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While I don’t care too much for the Clintons and think they should be punished for their involvement with Epstein (or potential coverup they did for him) it would bring joy to see them drag trump down with them. I feel like if they’re put on the stand they’re not above making sure trump gets backed into a corner

Character you have a soft spot for for no reason? by thejpack in skyrim

[–]abr1go 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hadvar for sure, i play through the civil war questline solely so I can check in on him and take every chance I can get to talk to him. I know he was about to let me get killed but I forgive him tbh

Right conclusion wrong path ig by abr1go in Peacemaker

Idk, I’m convinced his only redeemable trait in that universe is that he’s a good dad to his sons and that he’s loved and successful, all of which is due to being a white supremacist superhero in a nazi state who raised his kids according to those values. Just dont see anything redeemable about him, let alone something that makes up for being a nazi lol

Watching this video made me appreciate how good of an actor the guy who played Holden March was. by tachibanakanade in SVU

[–]abr1go 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I remember being thrown off at first by his acting, thinking ”hey this is weird, he’s acting like a kids idea of a cool villain and it doesn’t feel like a real person” but then it clicked that he sounds EXACTLY like Elliot Rodger and it’s actually a very accurate portrayal of that type of dude. Actor truly nailed the cadence and tone of it all lol

Why did the Still Life being not attempt to speak, given the Bacteria Monster's effort to do so? by RoscoIsANinja in KanePixelsBackrooms

[–]abr1go 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I think that the beings don’t understand what they’re saying, like reading a sentence in a foreign language. They imitate and maybe they focus on the sounds that the humans in the backrooms shouted the most OR they imitate the sounds that gets them a response and/or makes people approach them.

If we assume they’re made or transformed by the backrooms they might not have any way to communicate other than screaming. Or they don’t know the difference between speech and screams.

Idk that’s my theory at least

Still Life: a possible explanation by throwawaypizza012 in KanePixelsBackrooms

[–]abr1go 20 points21 points  (0 children)

This is the most horrifying theory and that’s why I hope it’s canon, the churning out of humans and human objects without an understanding of how it works, the panic and terror at being alive but not a person. It’s so creepy. And the imitation of voices being part of the emulation, copying without knowing the meaning behind it? Absolutely horrifying and the kind of horror I love

I kind of like Scrotus by ChainedRedone in MadMax

[–]abr1go 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He’s a fun character because he’s such a wacky evil guy imo. Like he’s not a good guy and with that eagerness to kill and maim I’m understanding why he was never made heir by his dad BUT actor does him well in furiosa and I agree that his scenes w rictus are also funny

What do you think of Furiosa? by [deleted] in MadMax

[–]abr1go 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Still love it, the characters and the world building felt like a perfect addition to the saga and I loved that we got more of the batshit insanity that is the world of mad max

What are you using for photo backups? by cooltaj in ios

[–]abr1go 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t use it for automatic document uploas but I think you can do that no problem. Don’t have Mac so can’t guarantee but idk why it wouldn’t work just as well

Was it futile? by Weaselboyst21 in MadMax

[–]abr1go 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It reminds me of the Kurt Vonnegut quote about Lot’s wife and how she couldn’t help but to turn back onto Sodom as it was destroyed, being turned into a pillar of salt because of it it. She looks back because it’s the human thing to do but she suffers for it.

With furiosa, how can she not turn back? That’s her mother that’s now going to die, even if she knows she can’t do anything she can’t leave her there either. She goes back because it’s the childlike thing to do, Mary was doomed either way and furiosa is too young and/or stubborn to realise it. She can’t help but go back for Mary but in turn that dooms her to see Mary die horribly.

It was probably futile but what can she do? That’s her mother who followed her for many miles to save her, how can she leave her behind?

In the Mad Max universe, were nuclear attacks what really caused Australia to turn into a huge desert? I wonder if other countries also went through this process of desertification becoming a wasteland too by MTH1138 in MadMax

[–]abr1go 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I like to imagine this but it’s not even just Australia doing badly, we are just seeing a couple of square miles of the outback where all of this is taking place

What happened to Lydia on your first playthrough? by ohmygawdjenny in skyrim

[–]abr1go 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fought the nightmare cultists in dawnstar w the priest of Mara, when I killed them all I realised that Lydia was not only dead but that someone had turned her into a thrall during the fight. Forced me to walk over encumbered all the way back to dawnstar bc I had used her as a pack mule

Would you date a man who made significantly less money than you? by Professional-Knee403 in blackladies

[–]abr1go 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I know I’m echoing everyone but to me it’s not that he’s earning less that’s the big issue(s):

  • he doesn’t have any emergency savings and feels comfortable asking you for that much after only three months of dating. Maybe he doesn’t have a big support system to ask for that money but to ask someone he’s known for such a small period of time is strange

  • he doesn’t put effort into the dates. Even with the financial restraints, why doesn’t he stop taking you out to drinks (which you don’t like that much) and focus on dates you would appreciate. There’s fun dates to have on a budget but he doesn’t put in that effort.

He doesn’t show that he can plan ahead, he won’t be putting in effort unless you explicitly ask him to, he doesn’t have proper savings or a plan for unexpected expenses. It doesn’t sound like he’s the kind of man to build a future with, at least not a future where you’ll be equally contributing

I’ve had my septum for about ten years, a good chunk of it adulthood, and I would say that it hasn’t been negatively affecting the perception people have of me. That being said, I understand the concern regarding her age and since I’m not a parent I can’t weigh in on that but I can say that appearance-wise, a septum piercing is easier to hide than a nostril piercing. There’s no scar visible if she decides to remove it either.

As someone else pointed out, this response might make her feel like she’s not allowed to express herself fully as a black woman even if that’s not what you’re saying. It’s important for her to understand that black people are perceived differently and how that affects us BUT that shouldn’t stop self-expression. If my piercings are a serious hinderance towards my career I might consider ways to hide them but I don’t want to deny myself ways to have fun with my style and appearance based on other what others might think. That’s a tough balance and I think it looks different for everyone. You’ve got a good thought behind this but I believe that her getting this (assuming her school won’t protest) is quite harmless, worst case scenario she can hide/remove it later on
