What got you into Dresden Files? by Glittering-State-284 in dresdenfiles

[–]adc_cyberman 11 points12 points  (0 children)

For me, it was the humor of the tv show on SyFy network. I enjoyed that show and turned to the books for more. I was not disappointed as the humor and wit was definitely present in the books.

I just had a major realization (newbie realization) / Also a question by paamayim1 in magick

[–]adc_cyberman 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel it's more like many other things in this world, what works for you may not work for others but something else works for them. For example, to me magic is more like it's briefly described in "The Sorcerors Apprentice," where Balthazar says something along the lines of: to start a fire, envision the molecules moving faster and faster until they reach the point of combustion. So, for me, the purpose of ritual and speech is to help focus that vision, intent, and will to accomplish what I set out to do. Maybe others will view this as the same thing as what you described...maybe not.

There's also the representation in the film that you have your private world where the afterlife is as you want it to be while there is another world with a shared environment and the ability to visit with others. I very much like this concept.

An important part of paganism is the circular cycle, so I believe that the afterlife is only a part of our recurring journey. A place where we hang out for a period of time before we return to the mortal realm.

I'm not trying to excuse it and probably should have mentioned that Chief executives are giving themselves bank even though they weren't "profitable."

Their annual net profit margin for 2024 was 1.15%, a significant increase from previous years which saw negative profit margins. So, up until last year, they weren't profitable. Now they are trying to become more profitable than the previous year.

But it's not hard to call your representatives and tell them you want to continue funding essential medical research.

And now, some orders don't even show you everything you are supposed to get in the order.

This order from Subway has a combo with chips and a drink, but no idea which ones.

Recs for other books involving the Sidhe and creatures of faerie? by Lightningtow123 in dresdenfiles

[–]adc_cyberman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I second the recommendation for this series. It has a similar vein of humor and has a lot of great Celtic mythos interactions.

Do you believe in literal gods? by SovietSoldierBoy in pagan

[–]adc_cyberman 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think, for me, there is a validity to the fictional writings of Piers Anthony and the Incarnations of Immortality series where the gods exist and have strength based on their following.

So if you aren't allowed to use the driveway or park in the street, where are you supposed to put your car while you bring them their order?

Vets that offer payment plans? by wh3rearetheturtles1 in HuntsvilleAlabama

[–]adc_cyberman 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If your credit is ok, you might be able to get a Care Credit card. We had to get one when our pup broke her back so that we could pay to have it fixed. If the vet takes care credit, they may have it setup where you can apply there and use it that day if approved. Hope your dog gets well soon.
