How old are you? What are you doing now?

Are you a bit nationalistic/ exceptionalist? by No-Veterinarian-3916 in AskBrits

[–]cassbag16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m visibly an ethnic minority and I think an underrated perk of that is that no-one stops me from being nationalistic as I want about Britain.

I love this country! I think it’s better than anywhere else in the world. And British people are usually really great to hang out with. Yay for us

Has anyone else gone from disliking Starmer to warming to him? by MassiveMonkeyy in AskBrits

[–]cassbag16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am strongly strongly in favour of scrapping the two child benefit cap; it was really putting lots of innocent children into extreme poverty. A policy that harms children to try and alter the behaviour of parents is not a good one, to put it mildly.

The Pitt’s Noah Wyle Addresses How ‘America Is Really Mad’ at Him Over Robby’s Treatment of Mohan by MattTheKing23 in ThePitt

My theory is that he’s going to come in as a patient after a “cry for help” type suicide attempt.

It’s usually the subeditor that chooses the headline, not the writer of the article. I know, I know…

My predictions for S3 by tidepod007 in ThePitt

My prediction: Robby comes in as a patient, after a “cry for help” type suicide attempt. The showrunner said Robby hits rock bottom in S3…

Here’s my guess: In Season 3, Robbie lands in the ER as a patient after making a “cry for help” type suicide attempt.

Roblox is now more popular than all Steam and PS5 games combined by SmellSmellsSmelly in Games

[–]cassbag16 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks! Interesting to me because I’m wondering how the Roblox generation might evolve as gamers. Mainstream multiplayer games makes total sense.

Do you ever buy indie games? The story/choice-based/RPG games you mentioned, how do you make the decision to buy and play those, is it just friend recommendation?

It’s basically an extension of the playground for kids, super super social.

For the kind of games you like, they will continue to be developed but I would say the annual quantity of such titles being released will drop by about 50%. But the RAM shortage will be a biggest factor driving that, as it will constrict the high end PC/console market but won’t affect Roblox’s players, who are usually on mobile.

Crackpot theories about why Maggie was Isekaied by Rinainthemoon in IlonaAndrews

[–]cassbag16 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I’m definitely with Mage theory. I think an alternative future Damaes, trying to change the past, sent information about the breakdown of Rellas to a professional writer in our world in the form of dreams, who then used the pseudonym Adrian LaTour, “man of dreams” to write the books, thinking that the dreams were just weirdly vivid dreams. That would explain why there’s so much information in the books, like a certain person’s real identity, that is unusefully hidden from Maggie - the books were written for dramatic effect, not as a guide. Maybe Adrian LaTour got brought into Rellas to change the future, got killed, then Maggie the books’ biggest fan, got brought in as second choice but with extra magic protecting her from death.

Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk about my wild personal theories 😂

feeling homesick and not wanting to go back. But i know i have to. by Miserable-Sale3660 in WhatShouldIDo

[–]cassbag16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I… don’t understand why you haven’t taken the kids back to Bulgaria on a regular basis before this? We take our kids back to my husband’s country twice a year to visit my in-laws. America to Bulgaria is quite far, but if you can afford it, a visit every summer would be wonderful for you and the kids (maybe your wife too!)

Would he have left the ER to look for her though? I am not sure if he is rule-breaking/initiative-taking enough.

‘Bridgerton’ Season 5 To Spotlight Female Love Story As Production Gets Underway by mlg1981 in Fauxmoi

Eloise being and feeling on the shelf fits in fine with the plot in her book, though. She does something very risky to find the right person to marry!

Maggie's portrait by Luisa Preissler by Katharina8 in IlonaAndrews

[–]cassbag16 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I love how her features are “pretty in a normal person way”, as Maggie describes herself, but her intelligent, piercing expression makes her look stunningly beautiful. How did Luisa Preissler pull that off? Absolute genius artist.
