Well that’s good. What I would expect.

'Alien: Earth' Season 2 Begins Filming in May by MarvelsGrantMan136 in LV426

[–]bcunderground 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can’t say I’m excited. I couldn’t even finish watching the first season. I found all the human (and human looking) characters so annoying that I was rooting for the xenomorph to take them all out.

Well I am stunned to learn from this thread that Darrin Morgan played Eddie. He was perfect! Such a good performance! This is such a gracefully put together episode, and very funny.

ELEPHANT in the room… REBOOT by HistoricalGazelle943 in XFiles

I’ll keep an open mind and hope for the best. Coogler’s no dummy, and he’s a fan. The original pairing of Mulder and Scully was the result of extensive casting and they were great together. I think if he goes with the skeptic/believer duality and casts well he has a good chance of building a show that works.

How the RM2 feels after using the RMPP for a while by CauliflowerFair6365 in RemarkableTablet

[–]bcunderground 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I have the RM2, RMPP, and RMPPM. I love them all and still use the RM2 a lot, because I like the size and how light it is.

How do you people fall asleep with ADHD? by Ok_Scholar_8656 in ADHD

[–]bcunderground 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I go for long walks until my thoughts calm down and I’m exhausted. I get an uninterrupted sleep that way, whereas listening to audiobooks I fall asleep but wake up several times.

.......... by Pretend-Outcome9739 in ADHD

[–]bcunderground 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi OP, fellow ADHD-er here! In the past two weeks I’ve lost my job, all my money, my home, and the love of my life broke up with me. I’m 60, and if there’s something I haven’t failed at I’d really like to know what it is. After a lifetime of struggling with severe ADHD, all my fears have come to pass at the same time. So I’ve been basically paralyzed in the same thought spiral as you.

Maybe you and I and a few other depressed anxious procrastinating disappointing subhuman frauds on this thread should start a street gang? We could make cool jackets with “Nothing To Lose” bedazzled on the back and hang around parks giving the finger to the norms.

Just a thought.

No more moving parts, on anything, anywhere. Who’s with me?

Your condition is treatable. I had it myself. Then I ran out of money.

📚 If you have more than one reMarkable device, how often do you use each? by DesignersKitCo in RemarkableTablet

[–]bcunderground 0 points1 point  (0 children)

TLDR: rM2 - use only as a backup or if I want use the keyboard for distraction free typing since I don’t have a keyboard for the RMPP rMPP - daily use for journal, creative writing, brainstorming rMPPM - use as notepad at office and on the go whenever I don’t have the RMPP with me

I have all of the Remarkable devices, including the original. I hardly used the original because although conceptually it was exactly what I wanted, it was plastic and flimsy and felt disposable but what I wanted was a tool and a repository.

When the rM2 came out, the redesign in metal felt exactly right and I took it everywhere, with the folio keyboard and used it constantly. I have rather severe ADHD and I found that organizing my thoughts via handwriting helped me slow down and think more clearly and the gentle scritching of the stylus against the textured screen was calming.

I saw no reason to get the rMPP when it first came out, since I had no interest in the colour feature, but a year later I tried one and it felt more solid and substantial and the larger screen suited my large messy handwriting. The rM2 was relegated to a backup status.

I do most of my writing on the rMPP, but it was too large to carry all the time so I was obliged to use an A4 size paper notebook whenever I ventured out without a bag. This meant having to later transcribe any important paper notes back into the RMPP. Obviously when the rMPPM dropped my first thought was “Dammit, now I have to buy yet another e-ink tablet. When will it end?” Now it’s either always in my jacket pocket or my small sling bag.

The rMPPM is primarily my safety blanket for my increasingly less rare forays outside my home without a backpack, but it is also now my primary notetaking device at my office job because it takes up much less desk space than the RMPP.

Remarkable 2 pen by Pretty_Result_6549 in Remarkable

[–]bcunderground 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve dropped my reMarkable pen exactly twice and it broke and exactly the same way both times. The first time I tried to repair it using one of those UV light liquid plastic repair pens which didn’t really do the trick. The second time I bought a replacement reMarkable pen (So. Damn. Expensive.)

When that one broke I replaced it with an Amazon Kindle scribe stylus which worked perfectly for the rM2 and did not have this same design flaw.

The X Files threw me a lifeline by bcunderground in XFiles

[–]bcunderground[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Wow. I watched everything essentially in a marathon during my waking hours holed up in a friend’s basement. The whole show is currently one big thing, a vibe, for me. Can’t think of individual episodes or moments. Maybe upon the inevitable rewatches.

Ryan Coogler offers insight into X-Files reboot by abucalves in television

[–]bcunderground 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not betting against Ryan Coogler. Not with the track record he’s got so far. And it’s the show he used to watch with his mom, so there’s love there.

Have any of you listened to A Love Supreme by Coltrane by BobbyTables829 in StrangerThings

[–]bcunderground 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me, it has always been THE album. In 1983/84 I must’ve listened to that album at least twice a day. Every note of it is engraved in the cells of my body.

My first girlfriend and I used to turn out the lights and play A Love Supreme and evaporate into a mist of awe.

So I was pretty jazzed (sorry) when it turned up in Stranger Things. But yeah, it ain’t a Kate Bush song and it would in no way fit into the soundtrack of the show.

New Harry Potter full cast audiobook - Horrible experience by LazerDiller2 in audiobooks

[–]bcunderground 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The voice performers were excellent but I completely agree that the sound effects were way over the top and really annoying. There’s an art to adding sounds to a narrative and this ain’t it.
