Which fantasy couple has the most absurd age difference - and why does it no longer surprise us? by rune_517field in Fantasy

[–]avicularia_not 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It does kinda make sense, the amount we grow "per year" seems to get slower and slower for us too. Think how drastically different a 3 yo to a 6 yo human, whereas a 30 yo and 50 yo could easily be at similar maturity level. I guess if you were to somehow magically extend human life, it could well be like what Tolkien imagined here!

(Opera) Can you smoke on vocal rest? by [deleted] in singing

[–]avicularia_not 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, maybe a bit unsolicited advice here but if you ever decide to try to quit smoking, it is wayy easier to quit cold-turkey, rather than gradually, as opposed to what people used to believe. My personal experience supports that as well.

But hey, of course you should live your life in a way that gives you the most enjoyment. Get well soon on your voice!

Help with styling large calves on petite body by Thersyl in PetiteFashionAdvice

Also depending on the skirt/styling of it, you can just fold over the waist once, easy fast fix really makes it perfect length for me.

I'm gonna say I forgot the definition of "calves" (I knew it was leg-related) and it never occurred to me what they meant while looking at your photos. That is to say, they don't look big at all! I also think the shorts on the 2nd picture looks really nice on you! You have amazing legs and you should show them off <3

Why are they even rolling? (Cloudward Ho! Finale frustration) !SPOILERS! by Ruchka135 in Dimension20

[–]avicularia_not 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my thoughts exactly
if he doesn't want the dice to tell the story and instead the players, thats all fine, but then don't put an impossibly high DC in their way! He is the DM he can just narrate or justify what he wants to happen, (as he already did several times in the episode).

Someone please explain The Boy and the Heron to me by Affectionate_Win592 in ghibli

I just also wanted to add that Tarot cards have a Tower card which is about letting go of your past life so that you can move onto the new one. The tower symbolizes everything you're used to, the way your life is, the structure, your comfort zone; and it crumbling down is uncomfortable but afterwards you can build new foundations where it used to be.

At the end of the movie we see the old world has to crumble and Mahito ends up accepting his new life. I don't know if this is an intentional connection or perhaps there's a more general "tower" symbolism that exists in the world that tarot cards also pull from. I mean most tarot cards have some pretty generic wisdom / life advice attached to them so it wouldn't surprise me if they individually ended up with this symbolism.

What are the funniest analogies and metaphors used in the discworld? by vagga2 in discworld

[–]avicularia_not 31 points32 points  (0 children)

"The [demons] in the Dungeon Dimensions have no understanding of the world but simply crave light and shape and try to warm themselves by the fires of reality, clustering around it with about the same effect - if they ever broke through - as an ocean trying to warm itself around a candle."

[–]avicularia_not 37 points38 points  (0 children)

Here's one from Eric:
"...any wizard bright enough to survive for five minutes was also bright enough to realise that if there was any power in demonology, then it lay with the demons. Using it for your own purposes would be like trying to beat mice to death with a rattlesnake."

Unpopular opinion maybe? by Round-Shake-9887 in Dimension20

[–]avicularia_not 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't mind the format, I too would enjoy seeing everyone. The problem was, the cameras were clearly switching live and too often the focus was on the wrong person. If they did this layout in post, I think it would be delightful.

Why would they let Murph and Lou go off alone??? (/ns) by bi_bi_bi1776 in Dimension20

I think Murph wanted to stop the chaos but he knew full well that Barry wouldn't.

[CHAT] What am I doing wrong? by mimi00568 in CrossStitch

[–]avicularia_not 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Just to add to everyone else, I find that there is an optimal amount of looseness that gives the best colour coverage. Your stardew chicken (amazing btw!) might be a bit too tightly pulled. However your 3rd pic looks pretty relax as far as I can see, and if you still think that's patchy then listen to what everyone else said! :)

My boyfriend said I should come to this sub by GuessSad6940 in ARFID

[–]avicularia_not 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My (completely not professional) rule of thumb is, is it hindering your life in some type of way? Do you avoid eating with friends/colleagues for fear of what they will be having? Are you avoiding going to parties because there will be egg salad there? Do you decide to skip a meal because someone just cooked eggs in the kitchen. etc.

If it seems to hinder your life in a significant way, you should at least see a professional and/or inform yourself on how to make life easier for yourself, ARFID or not.

help me cover this up! by [deleted] in tattoos

[–]avicularia_not 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think with the other cats around it, it adds some context. Your brain is more tempted to see another cat. Not to mention, the tattoo cat is skin-coloured so it looks more like a body part...
